| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Live Out Loud Show. I'm your host, Brooke Thomas. Well, we are wrapping up summer, |
| 0:06.6 | and with that is back to school. We're in a new season over here. Reagan, our oldest, is in her third |
| 0:12.7 | year of college at Alabama. And Riley, our youngest, is stepping into her senior year. I cannot |
| 0:19.8 | believe it. It's crazy that next year, |
| 0:23.0 | both of our girls will be in college. I'm going to try not to cry saying that. So for this |
| 0:27.5 | episode, I've invited my girl Sam from the Live Out Loud team to help me talk through this moment |
| 0:33.9 | of motherhood. Sam, welcome to the show. Brooke, thank you so much. I am so happy to be here. |
| 0:40.6 | Today we're going to lean into what this season is teaching you and the lessons you're learning |
| 0:45.0 | about motherhood, the prayers you're praying over Reagan and Riley, and some encouragement |
| 0:49.1 | for any mom who's stepping into a similar transition. We're going to keep it real and we're |
| 0:53.4 | going to keep it practical and we're going to keep it practical. |
| 0:54.8 | And we're going to end with a simple way to pray over your school year. So let's do this. Yes, I'm excited. I'm so glad you're here, Sam. I know you're just a little bit older than my girls. So it wasn't that long ago that you were in college and you understand maybe what your mom went through. Yeah. Yeah, she walked through it and you're walking through it and you're handling it with so much grace. |
| 1:13.9 | Thank you. Thank you. You're welcome. Okay, so let me ask you. I need you to paint the picture for us. What does this season feel like with Reagan in her third year at Alabama? And Riley is stepping into her senior year. What about this has surprised you the most this season? |
| 1:29.3 | Okay, well, first of all, anybody that knows me, anybody that has been following me for any length |
| 1:34.6 | of time, every single season that my girls have been in since they were little, I always try to |
| 1:40.3 | embrace every season. Even in my book, I talk about the power of our words. And when my |
| 1:45.9 | girls were little, I was just so grateful to have kids, to have children, especially after what I went |
| 1:51.2 | through with my cancer diagnosis. And they, you know, told me that they wanted me to abort the baby |
| 1:56.4 | and have chemotherapy. When I did not choose that option and I actually had my daughter Reagan, I just |
| 2:02.3 | remember being so grateful to have a child that when I heard other moms say things like terrible |
| 2:09.2 | twos, it really stuck out to me because I thought, I don't want to say terrible twos. I want to |
| 2:15.3 | say terrific twos. Even if it's challenging at times, even if there were terrible moments at times because there is when you're a mom. There's things that happen. I never wanted to put a label on my kids that they were terrible. I never wanted to talk about them as teenagers in a bad way. And I know that in life and in seasons, we all go through things.
