Gentle Parenting, The Instagram Lie, and the Real War for Your Home

Rachel Zwayne is probably one of the kindest women I've ever met, and I'm so glad to introduce her to you. No matter how old your kids are, modern motherhood can feel like a constant tug of war between emotions and truth, grace and discipline, calling and comparison. We get real about what it actually looks like to raise kids and follow Jesus in a culture obsessed with feelings and perfection. We talk about gentle parenting, and what seems to be the Instagram-perfect mom life, to finding peace in your God-given calling as a woman and mother. She talks a great deal about emotions and how beautiful they are, but also about where we can have some downfalls. 👉My Website: https://www.melissadougherty.co/ 💡Want to know more about this "New Thought" thing?
