Welcome to Part 2 of my conversation with Kate Battistelli! In this episode, we dive into what it looks like to hold onto your God-given dreams—even in the midst of a season filled with diapers, feedings, and little sleep. If you’ve ever felt torn between the calling of motherhood and the stirring of personal dreams, you’re not alone. Kate shares wisdom and encouragement on how to stay rooted in purpose, even while caring for young children. Plus, she offers simple, practical steps you can take today to prepare your heart and life for the next season of your journey. I hope this conversation with Kate has encouraged you to embrace both your calling as a mother and the unique dreams God has placed on your heart. It’s not always easy to balance it all, but as Kate reminded us, every season has purpose. Take a moment to reflect on the small steps you can take today to set yourself up for the next chapter. You don’t have to wait for the “perfect time” to start. God is working in the here and now.
