In this deeply personal episode, Tanya reflects on her daughter’s recent wedding and the realization that motherhood is the most important leadership role we’ll ever have.

From the joy of watching her adult children step into their own callings, to the quiet conviction that leadership begins at home, Tanya shares wisdom for professional women who’ve spent years striving for balance between career and family.

She opens up about:

  • How motherhood has shaped her view of servant leadership
  • The tension between high expectations at work and the heart’s desire to be present at home
  • What it looks like to lead with grace when you feel like you’re failing at both
  • Why the legacy we leave is built on people, not performance
  • And how God uses motherhood to refine our leadership character

If you’ve ever wrestled with guilt for stepping away from work to care for your family—or if you’ve questioned whether being “just mom” was enough—this episode will remind you that your influence as a mother is eternal leadership in its purest form.

 

I hope this episode blesses you!

Xoxo,

Tanya
