Mothering

Today we welcome my big sister, Sanaya, to the garden for a conversation that starts with motherhood, and opens into something much bigger.

We’re both newer moms, still very much in it, figuring things out in real time. While this episode isn’t a “how-to” guide on being a mom, it is an honest reflection on how becoming mothers has completely shifted the way we understand love, responsibility, patience, and purpose.

Through our own experiences of creating and caring for a human being, we explore a powerful new lens for understanding our relationship with God. What does it mean to love something you created more than yourself? To see potential before it’s fully revealed? To know what’s best for someone even when they don’t understand it yet?

We talk about God as a parent, how He knows us more deeply than anyone else, believes in our potential even when we can’t see it, and guides us with a love that’s both tender and firm. Motherhood gave us language for something we always believed in, but never fully felt until now.

This episode is for anyone who is a mom, thinking about becoming one, or simply curious about how life experiences can unlock deeper spiritual understanding. It’s soft, thoughtful, emotional, and grounding, very much a “welcome back to the garden, let’s grow together” kind of conversation 🌸
