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.

21- Is Your Husband Feeling Unloved? The Marriage Blind Spot Most Moms Miss
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you been feeling disconnected from your husband and can't quite figure out why? You've been putting in the effort. You've been trying. But somehow the gap keeps growing and you're starting to wonder if this is just... what marriage looks like now.
Mama, I've been there. And in this episode I'm taking you inside one of the hardest conversations Andrew and I have ever had — the one that finally cracked everything open and led us to the simplest shift that changed how we show up for each other every single day.
It happened over sushi. I couldn't even eat. And what came out of that night was just two words. But those two words? They brought us back.
In this episode we talk about:
- Why working hard on your marriage isn't enough if you're working through the wrong lens
- The moment I realized I had been showing Andrew all the ways he was failing me — and calling it constructive feedback
- How to distill what your husband actually needs down to two words (and share yours too)
- Why guys play for points and how something as small as an empty trash can with a fresh bag can change the temperature of your whole marriage
- What Philippians 2:3-4 has to do with feeling close to your husband again
- The daily habit that rebuilt our trust — and brought back the joy, the playfulness, and yes, the flirting
