Can’t we all relate to this beautiful painting? Sometimes we feel like we have the weight of the world on our shoulders . . .

We recently received this question from a mom in our community:

“How am I supposed to find the joy in motherhood when all I can do is keep my head above water? I am barely surviving, let alone thriving!”

Well, if you’ve ever felt this way, you’re not alone.  And as we prepared for this radio show, we reached out to our Power of Moms Facebook community for answers.  (The response was wonderful.)

Join Saren and April as they discuss thoughts and actions that deliberate mothers can use when things feel really heavy, and receive a virtual pat on the back from our community as we acknowledge the beauty and power of motherhood.
