Faithful Mama Rising I Overwhelm, Mindset, Marriage, Faith, Identity
Do you ever find yourself wondering, "What am I even doing with my life?" Do you put yourself in "time-out" just to catch a breath? Do you ever feel like you belong to everyone else—your husband, your kids, the chores, the commitments—and somewhere along the way, you stopped belonging to yourself?
Well Mama, you are in the right place.
Faithful Mama Rising is a faith-filled podcast for overwhelmed moms who are tired of living in survival mode and ready to rise into the woman they're called to be.
This is where you'll start feeling seen, supported, and grounded again… where you'll reconnect with who you actually are and start leading your life on your own terms.
I'm Mitch—girl mama of two, wife to my hunk-o-hunk of lovin' husband, Andrew, and a former Mom-ster who once lived knee-deep in overwhelm, resentment, and loneliness. For years, I believed the right checklist or perfect schedule would magically fix everything. But no amount of planning stopped the Mom-ster from returning—and it definitely didn't help me feel supported or seen.
Through real conversations, faith, and learning to actually lead myself, I learned how to release the pressure of the endless to-do list, ask for help, reconnect with myself, and—get this—be playful again. My lips literally remembered how to smile.
And now? I'm here to walk this journey with you.
If you're ready to stop chasing quick fixes that only last three days, reclaim the woman God created you to be, and rise out of feeling stuck and into a life of grace, support, and purpose—these are the conversations for you.
So fold the laundry—or don't (honestly, it's clean, that's what matters)—and let's get our change on.

Tired of feeling like motherhood has swallowed your identity?
Do you wonder if you’ll ever feel like yourself again outside of diapers, laundry, and sippy cups?
Ever catch yourself asking, “Am I just here to teach my kids how to survive, or is there more for me?”
In this episode, I get real about the struggle of losing yourself in motherhood and how to reclaim your sense of identity while fully loving your role as a mom. I share my personal journey—from feeling trapped in routines and exhaustion, to discovering practical ways to reconnect with myself, take small actions that bring momentum, and find joy in the everyday “string cheese moments.”
You’ll hear how serving others outside your home, embracing your worth, and remembering that being a mom doesn’t limit your dreams can transform your perspective and energize your life. This episode is for any mom who wants to feel empowered, regain her sense of self, and show her children that motherhood and pursuing dreams can coexist beautifully.
