Do you ever find yourself losing your temper over small things, like shoes left out, bedtime battles, or your child’s refusal to shower, and wondering why patience feels so out of reach? Are you constantly torn between wanting to give your kids more freedom and feeling the need to control every little detail? In this episode of the The Living Easy Podcast, Lindsey Maestas shares her own journey of learning how to create autonomy in her children while practicing real, grace-filled patience with them and with herself.
Lindsey shares her own struggle with control, the urge to create rules where they may not be necessary, and how a desire for peace in her home led her to pursue emotional regulation, realistic expectations, and a rhythm over-reaction. She unpacks the idea that patience isn’t something we simply “have”, it’s something we build, moment by moment, with intentional choices and Christ-centered perspective.
If you’ve ever felt guilty for being a reactive parent or overwhelmed by your own high expectations, this episode will meet you with honesty and hope.
