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.

Does this sound like you?
- You're holding it all together on the outside but running on empty on the inside — and nobody really knows.
- You'd call yourself a person of faith, but somewhere in the chaos of life, you stopped actually bringing things to God.
- You keep saying you trust Him, but when you look at what you're white-knuckling in your life, the list is long.
- You consider yourself an open book — but there's one chapter you keep closed, even with the people closest to you.
- You feel alone, not because people aren't around, but because you've decided for them what they can and can't handle from you.
In this episode:
This one came straight out of Passion Week. While reading through Luke day by day, one verse stopped everything — Luke 22:24, where the disciples go from hearing that one of them will betray Jesus, to arguing about who among them is the greatest. Almost in the same breath.
It's easy to shake your head at them. Until you realize you do the same thing.
After one of the hardest seasons our family has ever walked through — an emergency surgery that had doctors unsure if Andrew would make it, a wedding, and an unexpected death all back to back — I finally sat down for a business meeting with God. And what came out of it cracked me open.
I wasn't trusting Him. Not really. I was carrying everything — my marriage, my kids, my business, my image — and calling it faith while quietly cutting God out because I was too busy keeping it all together for Him to actually step in.
This episode is about what it really looks like to trust God with the thing you're holding the hardest. Not the bumper sticker version. The kind that costs you something.
