About this listen
Does having it all even exist?
Former marketing executive turned third-grade teacher, Jen Babakhan never expected her transition to stay-at-home mom would bring feelings of grief and loss. She felt God was calling her to be home with her newborn son, and she wanted to be with him—yet she felt conflicted about giving up her career.
Detoured chronicles the often-bumpy path Jen took to contentment and peace in her new role at home. She honestly shares the struggles and joys of being home, and the truth she uncovered about “having it all.” She invites you to walk beside her on this journey and find:
- a new confidence and peace in your decision to place your career on hold
- an invitation to discover your true identity that has nothing to do with your job title
- a sense of community and the knowledge that you are not alone in your motherhood journey
Stay-at-home motherhood isn’t easy—but it can be the most beautiful detour you ever take.
