“Just a mom?” There’s no such thing.

Motherhood isn’t a second-rate occupation. It is a career that can maximize your talents and strengths to their fullest.

When you look past the surface of mothering—the endless tasks and frantic pace—to the incredible skills required to raise your children while nurturing your marriage, the truth is clear: You’re a professional in one of the most dignified, demanding, and rewarding fields any woman can find.

Today on the podcast, I’m excited to be sharing one of my classic messages from the first book I ever wrote. You know, being a stay-at-home mom wasn’t in my plans. I expected (and studied) to be a music teacher! But when a season of life had me staying at home, I started to grasp the value of being home in a way I had never understood before.

So today I want to share with you what exactly it means to professionalize motherhood, why, if you’re at home, you should be proud to be a stay-at-home mom, what often keeps women from taking the step to stay home (even when they really want to), how marriage and mothering work together, how to stay fueled as a mom, and more.

When I started thinking of motherhood as a profession, it made me a much more intentional mom. It also completely changed how I viewed motherhood. It’s my hope that this episode does exactly that for you!
