Momentum Podcast with Erica Wiggenhorn
When your child pulls away, pushes back, or makes choices that break your heart, motherhood can feel like a weight of fear, guilt, and grief you carry alone. The silence at the dinner table. The text that never gets returned. The argument that erupts out of nowhere. These moments can quietly convince you that you've failed.
The Momentum Podcast is where host Erica Wiggenhorn meets moms in that painful space with honest conversation, practical tools, and biblical truth that actually holds weight in the hard moments. Drawing from her own raw experiences, current research, and her book Loving Your Wayward Child, Erica walks through the real challenges of parenting teens, young adults, and estranged children, from navigating volatile conversations to setting boundaries without severing connection.
This isn't a podcast that rushes past your pain with easy answers. It's one that helps you move closer to Jesus so He can move your family closer together, one faithful step at a time.

Loving Without Enabling
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
They need gas money. They need rent money. They need you to fix the thing they broke because of the choice you told them not to make. And if you say no, you're the worst mom alive. If you say yes, nothing changes. You've been on this ride before. You know how it ends.
Erica gets painfully honest about the day she kicked her son out of the house and what she got wrong in the process. She shares her friend Faye's gut-wrenching decision to drop her daughter and two grandkids at a women's shelter, and what Faye's daughter said about it years later that silenced the room.
You'll learn four signs that your help has crossed into enabling, why your child's entitled reaction when you say no tells you more than their request does, and what time-bound, role-building support actually looks like in real life, including the gas money conversation that almost ruined Erica's birthday.
Bailing them out feels like love. But it might be the very thing keeping them from the Savior who can actually change them from the inside out.
