| 0:00.0 | If you are struggling with overwhelm in motherhood and wondering if there's a way to move past it, |
| 0:05.9 | or if you doubt that God really is at work in the midst of your overwhelm, |
| 0:10.2 | then you will love getting to hear from our guest Michelle today. |
| 0:14.4 | Michelle is a single mom and founder of plus one parents, a ministry for single parents, |
| 0:19.5 | and she is no stranger to overwhelm and how |
| 0:22.1 | isolating and crippling it can often feel. Michelle and I, we share a lot of our own experiences |
| 0:27.8 | with overwhelm in motherhood and how it shows up in a lot of different ways, sometimes without |
| 0:34.4 | even really being aware of it. We also discuss the world's definition of more versus the biblical definition of more |
| 0:41.7 | and how that pursuit of more can really change how we approach motherhood both positively and |
| 0:48.9 | negatively. |
| 0:49.8 | We talk about how the enemy uses our overwhelm against us and how God works through our overwhelm |
| 0:55.7 | to invite us into more with him. Bottom line is, if you haven't experienced overwhelmed as a mom yet, |
| 1:02.7 | there will probably be a time when you do. And when that time comes, you will want to have |
| 1:07.7 | the truth that Michelle shares in this episode tucked in your heart. |

| 1:43.8 | So reheat or refill wherever you're at in |
| 1:46.6 | your day, your coffee, and let's live joy filled together. Michelle, thank you so much for |
