https://thegirlmomlife.myflodesk.com/connection-checklistLife with daughters comes with interruptions—small knocks on your door, quiet tears after practice, or the unexpected “Mom, can we talk?” moments right in the middle of your busiest day. As moms, it’s hard to know when to pause and when to let her figure it out on her own. In this episode, we’re talking about how to recognize those moments that truly matter—the ones where your daughter needs your presence more than your productivity.
In Ep. 16: When to Drop Everything for Your Daughter, you’ll learn how to read her cues, trust your intuition, and discern when it’s time to stop and listen versus when to give her space to grow. You’ll also hear five ways healthy boundaries strengthen connection, practical ways to “drop everything” without losing yourself, and how to repair when you miss the moment.

Being a mom is one of the absolute best AND hardest jobs on the planet. Before you get the job, there are all these ideas about what it's like, what you want to do. But when reality hits, it's not at all what you had in mind. And there's no manual for what to do.
That's where I come in. My goal is to share some of my experiences, even some tips and tools, that will help you navigate the complex job of Mom.

Life with daughters can feel busy, overwhelming, and stressful—school, sports, homework, and all the activities pile up fast.

But what if the reset button was as simple as a good laugh?
In Ep. 15: The Power of Playful Parenting, you’ll learn how laughter and play can transform everyday moments, reduce tension, and build stronger connections with your daughter.

Life with daughters means watching them face challenges big and small—school pressures, social media comparisons, friendship drama, and a world that often leads with fear.

There’s a moment in every relationship—whether with your spouse, your child, or even yourself—when you have to decide: Do I want to be right, or do I want to stay in relationship?
After 23 years of raising four daughters, I’ve learned that compromise isn’t weakness. It isn’t giving in or lowering your standards. It’s a skill. A mindset. A willingness to build bridges instead of walls. And when you practice it with your kids, you’re teaching them one of life’s most essential tools.

One of the biggest lies we tell ourselves is that we’re only supposed to feel one emotion at a time. Joy or sadness. Gratitude or grief. Excitement or fear.
But the truth? We’re complex humans, created by God to experience a wide range of feelings—sometimes all at once.
In Episode 7 of The Girl Mom Life Podcast, I share how learning to hold multiple emotions at the same time has helped me embrace life’s bittersweet moments and give myself (and my girls) permission to feel it all.

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned as a mom of four daughters is this: every child is wired the same… and completely different.
Yes, all kids need food, sleep, and love. But how they express themselves—and how they want to be communicated with—is uniquely their own.
In Episode 3 of The Girl Mom Life Podcast, I share why learning your child’s communication style is essential for building connection, reducing frustration, and guiding them toward resilience.

When it comes to parenting, sometimes the best way to connect with our daughters isn’t through giving answers—it’s through asking questions.
In Episode 2 of The Girl Mom Life Podcast, I share the second lesson God pressed on my heart after teaching me connection before correction. My natural response was, “Okay, Lord—how do I do that?” His answer was simple: Get curious.
And that single shift has transformed the way I listen, respond, and relate to my girls.

There’s a moment in every mom’s journey when the urge to fix collides with the deeper need to connect.
As a mom of four daughters for over 23 years, I’ve learned that one of the most powerful parenting shifts isn’t about discipline strategies or perfect routines—it’s about choosing relationship first.
