    Thriving as a Mom

    Date: May 8, 2020

    Guests: Kara-Kae James

    Kara-Kae James describes how she struggled with a cycle of anxiety and depression as a mom until she learned how to thrive by seeking counseling, letting go of perfectionism, and relying on God. She offers moms encouragement, inspiration, and help in this discussion based on her book Mom Up: Thriving With Grace in the Chaos of Motherhood.
