In this first episode, I’m sharing my story.

For years, I told myself I was fine. I was functioning, showing up, and doing what needed to be done—but underneath it all, anxiety was quietly shaping my life. After the unexpected loss of my sister, anxiety became something I carried daily. Motherhood intensified it. I learned how to survive, how to push through, and how to ignore what my body and heart were trying to tell me.

In this episode, I open up about:

• How anxiety first entered my life after loss

• Why becoming a mom made everything feel heavier

• How I coped the “world’s way” for a long time—staying busy, avoiding rest, and trying to do it all myself

• How God slowly drew me back to Him in the middle of overwhelm

• What changed when I finally allowed support, therapy, and deeper faith into my healing

• Why this podcast exists and who it’s for

This podcast was created for the mom who loves Jesus but still struggles with anxiety. The mom who feels overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, and unsure why calm feels so hard to reach. My heart is to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and supported—and reminded that you are not broken and you are not alone.

Each episode of Faith Over Anxiety for Moms will include faith-based encouragement, mindset and nervous system tools, honest conversations about motherhood and anxiety, and prayer for the mom listening.
