Hello, marvelous moms!

Today’s episode is all about the importance of developing deep, lasting biblical friendships. 𖠋♡𖠋

As busy Christian moms, it's easy to get caught up in the chaos of life, and easier still to overlook the ache of loneliness that sometimes creeps in.

Today, I'll open up with you and share about my own awareness and struggle through the valley of loneliness (time and time again). I'll invite you into the beauty of 𖠋♡𖠋 authentic friendships 𖠋♡𖠋 grounded in biblical principles.

Beloved, I share how pivotal relationships opened my soul to a deeper understanding of friendship and highlighted the emotional and spiritual consequences of loneliness.

Jesus’ invitation to be our friend and the significance of sharing in His sorrow was a game-changer for me.

Superficial connections often amplify loneliness. True, biblical friendships are about more than just receiving; they’re about giving, serving, and walking through pain together.

If you’ve been feeling that loneliness or the need for deeper connections, you’re not alone. God wants to plant the seeds of true, authentic friendships in your heart. ❤️ ❤️

Take some one-on-one time with Jesus this week and reach out to someone in your life. These small steps can lead to profound changes.

And if you’re ready to dive deeper, I invite you to join the waitlist for my next 6-Week Transformed Mom Cohort and receive 20% off your registration.

It’s a special opportunity to

𖠋♡𖠋 connect with like-minded women,

🧰 unpack the suitcases of your soul,

🌻 cultivate the friendships your heart longs for.

🥰 🥰 Let’s walk this journey together and

create a community of authentic, biblical friendships.

🌸 Hey mom!🌸

😔 Do you ever find yourself apologizing over and over again, sometimes without even realizing it?

🥺 It's a habit many of us share, but today we're diving into why constantly saying "I'm sorry" might be hurting us more than we think.

In this episode of Mom2Mom Mentoring, I explore the profound difference between habitual apologies and true repentance.

I offer total transparency as I share my own journey of overcoming chronic apologizing and discover the transformative power of true repentance.

Together, we will delve into:

• The historical origins of saying "I'm sorry" and how it evolved over time.
• Personal stories and insights on how habitual apologizing affected my marriage and family dynamics.
• Practical tips on replacing unnecessary apologies with expressions of gratitude.
• A deep dive into what the Bible says about true repentance and forgiveness.
• Encouragement for those in challenging or abusive situations to seek professional help rather than continually asking for repentance.

In addition, I offer a SPECIAL invitation to join the Growing in Gratitude Cohort Waitlist, where you can connect with other amazing moms and grow together in gratitude and faith.

Hey Marvelous Mom,

Welcome to "Mom2Mom Mentoring," the podcast designed especially for busy Christian moms seeking encouragement and practical wisdom. In this episode, I will delve deeper into the life-changing concept of grace and how it can revolutionize your parenting and daily life.

You will be encouraged with biblical truths about the One called GRACE and His invitation to us to rest. You will leave with an understanding of how our cultural conditioning of cause and effect can hinder our ability to receive grace.

As a seasoned MOM MENTOR, I aim to keep things simple, because we are all busy women and don't need another long list of things to do. So, I break down the challenge of embracing grace into five easy steps. The Five A's to Embrace Grace:

1. Awareness: Recognize when you need grace.

2. Acknowledge: Admit your need for God's grace.

3. Ask: Seek God's help and guidance.

4. Apologize: Repent for the times you've rejected grace.

5. Accept: Fully receive God's abundant grace.

This episode is packed with relatable stories, biblical wisdom, and practical steps to help you live in the freedom of God's grace.

Whether you're managing the chaos of motherhood or seeking spiritual growth, these insights will inspire and uplift you.

Marvelous Mom,

It's Misty Hughes here, and I’m so glad you’re joining me today.

❤️❤️ I want to share a piece of my heart with you—my journey through the beautiful chaos of motherhood and how I discovered the incredible power of grace.

Let’s be real: being a mom is tough. I’ve been there, trying to juggle four kids as a single mom, feeling like I’m failing at every turn. I remember the days when scuff marks on the baseboards and fingerprints on the walls felt like the least of my worries. And yet, those little messes became the catalyst for a much bigger realization.

I was skeptical about this thing called the Magic Eraser, just like I was skeptical about grace. But one day, out of sheer desperation, I gave it a try. The Magic Eraser became my go-to for all kinds of messes, and it became a reminder to me of how God’s grace works in our lives.

In this episode, I’m opening up about a really tough moment with my teenage daughter and how it led me to a breakdown—and a breakthrough.

I called my pastor, ready to face the consequences, but instead, I found grace. His words, “You’re a good mom,” hit me hard. It started a journey for me...a journey of discovery. That journey led me past the point of

"I can do ALL THINGS"

⬇⬇ to ⬇⬇

"I can do nothing...I'm failing and falling every day".

Eventually this journey led me to the person GRACE. I'd love to introduce you to my friend on today's episode, because I believe we all need to discover a little more (or a lot more) of this man.

I want you to know that you don’t have to carry the burden of guilt and comparison alone. Let’s lean into grace together. 🧎🏽‍♀️

It’s not about being perfect;

it’s about embracing God’s love and favor, just as we are.

I’ll share some practical tips on how to cultivate a relationship with Jesus and tap into His endless grace, especially on those tough days.

So, grab your favorite snack, put on your headphones, and take a moment for yourself. Let’s walk this journey of motherhood and faith together.

If this episode speaks to you, share it with your mom friends and leave a review.

Let’s spread the word and support each other in finding grace in the chaos. Thanks for listening, and remember, you are never alone in this journey.

Hey My Marvelous Mom,

Let's address something many of us struggle with: the never-ending cycle of self-criticism and feeling like we're not measuring up.

👈🏾 👇🏽 👎🏼 Trying to do it right but always feeling like we are getting it WRONG.

As a mother of four, I often found myself overwhelmed and irritable, focusing more on my children's shortcomings than on their needs. I thought I was being a good parent by teaching them responsibility, but I was missing out on the simple joys of connecting with them.

Developing the practice of intentional gratitude is a POWERFUL TOOL in helping those of us who see what's missing shift our focus to what is good.

Practicing gratitude isn't just about saying thank you for the good things in life.

It's about shifting our perspective and focusing on the positive aspects, even in the midst of chaos.

When you cultivate a practice of gratitude, you build resilience, strengthen relationships, and boost self-esteem. It's like putting on a pair of glasses that allows us to see the beauty in every moment, even the messy ones.

✅ Are you ready to try on these new glasses?

✅ Want to build resilience and cultivate peace from the inside out?
