Mom guilt. We’ve all felt it—whether it’s the pressure to be the “perfect mom,” the weight of comparison, or the feeling that we’ll never measure up. In this episode, Carol, Kelly, and Tricia get real about where mom guilt comes from, why it’s such a sneaky weapon of the enemy, and how to fight back with truth and encouragement.
From grocery store encounters that change someone’s day, to the reminder that God gave you the kids you have on purpose, this conversation is here to remind you: you’re doing better than you think.
3 Takeaways
-
Mom guilt is a tactic of the enemy—it distracts us from God’s truth and our identity in Him.
-
Comparison is a trap—social media highlight reels and unrealistic expectations only fuel insecurity.
-
Encouragement changes everything—a simple “you’re doing a great job” can make a lifelong impact.
This week, find one mom you can intentionally encourage. Send a text, offer to babysit, or simply tell her she’s doing a great job. You never know how much she needs to hear it.
