Time for Mom | Self-Esteem, Routines, Mom Guilt, Priorities, Comparison, Devotional, Self-Worth

Does mom life feel a bit lifeless these days?
Are you tired of waiting for God to do something new?
Do you feel like God has a purpose for the season you are in, but you can't see what it is?
If so, you’re in the right place!
Hi Beautiful, I’m Cheryl — wife, girl mom, aspiring SAHM, and Jesus follower. I learned the not-so-secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, finding routines that worked, rejecting mom guilt when I failed, and learning what self‑esteem really is. This podcast is for moms who want Biblical encouragement and real‑life devotions. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, become the mom you hoped you’d be, and love yourself the way your babies do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom.
In this episode, I’m sharing 5 things a spiritual winter provides so you can find some hope in your winter season. 
Winter:
Is a wilderness.
Is a time of testing and proving.
Is a time to remember and reflect.
Is a time of rest.
Set's the foundation for what we need to grow in the coming season.
