Balancing Motherhood and our Kingdom Calling

The most difficult leaps often require us to surrender things that were once a significant part of our identity and that's never easy.

In this episode, Rachael shares her transition from the boardroom to the playroom, how she struggled with her identity and significance, and how she surrendered, allowing God to take the lead. She also shares the beauty of separating her value and significance from what we do by recognizing that God's love for us is not based on that at all. If you are a stay-at-home mom struggling to find the value and significance in who you are and wondering how God loves you despite everything, this episode is for you. If you are looking for hope as you navigate a season of uncertainty in your leap, this episode with Rachael Adams has amazing encouragement and tips to help you. 

Rachael is a wife, mother, writer, and the host of the Love Offering podcast, where she helps women to realize and pursue their God-given calling and significance. Together with her husband Brian, they run a family business in Kentucky, where they live with their two kiddos.

Now let’s jump in!
