body movement sends signals back to the mind. So when we're racing around, there's something

about, or always rushing. That sends a signal to our brain that there's something that's

urgent here. Welcome to the Sheila's Freed Podcast. I am your host, Brittany Don Nelson, and today's

conversation is one that I know is going to meet so many of you right where you are. Because

honestly, it's meeting me in a very real way in this season of life. As a new mom, I have been

navigating what it looks like to balance being present at home,

hold everything together while still honoring God, this conversation is for you. Rochelle, I am so honored to have you on the podcast today. Thank you, Brittany. I'm so glad to be here. And thank you for having me. And, you know, I'd just like to start out by saying, you are not alone, right?
