Ep 149 // Feeling Disconnected From Your Kids? How to Stay Present and Faithful in a Busy Season

Feeling Disconnected From Your Kids? How to Stay Present and Faithful in a Busy Season

If you’ve ever crawled into bed at night wondering, “Did I actually connect with my kids today… or did I just manage the day?” — you’re not alone. Busy seasons can leave Christian moms feeling stretched thin, overwhelmed, and guilty that they’re not doing enough. But the truth is this: faithful parenting isn’t about doing more — it’s about inviting God into the moments you already have.

In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to stay present, grounded, and connected to your kids even when life feels chaotic. We’ll walk through what faithful parenting really looks like for busy working moms — not the picture-perfect version, but the real, grace-filled kind that happens in car lines, quick conversations, bedtime do-overs, and whispered prayers between meetings.

You’ll learn:

✨ What You’ll Walk Away With

• How to recognize the small, ordinary moments that make the biggest eternal impact

• Simple, practical ways to connect with your kids even on your busiest days

• Why presence matters more than perfection in Christian parenting

• How to let your kids see your real walk with God — not the polished version

• Encouragement for overwhelmed moms who feel disconnected or distracted

• Faith-filled reminders that God is with you in this season, even when you feel stretched thin

🌿 Inside This Episode, We Talk About:

• Why “busy” doesn’t disqualify you from being a faithful parent

• How to turn everyday moments into meaningful discipleship

• A real-life moment where distraction crept in — and what reconnection looked like afterward

• The power of one intentional moment a day

• Breath prayers and micro-moments that build spiritual roots in your kids

• How God uses your ordinary, imperfect presence

This episode is for the mom who feels overwhelmed, rushed, tired, or disconnected — the mom who wants to show up faithfully but isn’t sure what that looks like in a full season. You’ll walk away encouraged, grounded, and equipped with something you can try today.
