From Overwhelmed to Encouraged: A Real Talk on Motherhood | Kari Kampakis | Ep. 33

Motherhood is beautiful, but it’s also incredibly hard. In this honest conversation, Bethany welcomes back Kari Kampakis to talk about the messy, stretching, joy-filled journey of being a mom.

They dive into the real stuff: the learning curve that hits you in every new season, what happens when you snap at your kids and feel ashamed, how to stop seeing your children as burdens, and why repairing connection is more important than pretending to be perfect.
