About this listen

Some missionaries are only eligible for service missions, which can carry hidden shame for both the missionary and their mother. In this episode, we explore why this shame arises, how eligibility and expectations shape feelings of inadequacy, and practical ways moms can celebrate and support their children's meaningful service.

In this episode:

  • Why service missions can feel 'less than'
  • How shame affects both moms and missionaries
  • Tools to honor purpose, growth and impact

If you are navigating this delicate journey, you are not alone.
