Ep. 23- Letting Go of Control: A Real-Time Story of Raising Confident Girls

In this off-the-cuff, recorded-from-the-car episode, I’m bringing you right into a real-time moment of motherhood: waiting outside while my daughter attends her first youth conference—and trying not to be a helicopter parent. 😅

This episode is all about the tension we feel as moms—between wanting to protect our girls and knowing we need to give them freedom to grow.

Here’s the power in today’s episode:

• ​Why letting go of control is one of the hardest (but most powerful) things we can do as moms
• ​How confidence is built through experiences, not just encouragement
• ​Why giving our girls proof that they can handle hard or new things sets them up for the long haul
• ​A few personal stories (yes, including one about Aria buying cat food with my credit card) that reminded me how these little moments matter

If you’ve ever sat in your car, debating how much freedom to give your girl—you’re not alone. Hit play on this heart-to-heart for encouragement, real-life relatability, and a reminder that letting go can be the most loving thing we do.
