In the 11th installment of this 12-part series, Alissa welcomes her friend Raquel. In honor of The Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the two friends talk about all types of motherhood--the spiritual mothers they know and love, their lives as moms now, and our Heavenly Mother, Mary. Listen in as they chat about:
- This interview Raquel did on the loss of her mom on the podcast, Mamas in Spirit.
- Healing and consolation after loss through sharing our story
- Looking for glimpses of Mama Mary's attributes in the women around us
- The interior life as a way to care for ourselves
- Mary walking us closer to her Son, and also each other
- Motherhood being hard and the importance for asking for help from our spiritual mom and other women
- The awesomeness of WOMEN
- Mary being there, waiting to mother us
- Stepping into our YES the way Mary did over and over
- Mary as our model of love, trust and obedience
- The piercings Mary felt that help moms know she gets their struggle
