Summary
Join my dear friend and mentor Jennifer Flanders and me as we dive into all things motherhood encouragement.
Whether you’re struggling with encouraging camaraderie between your children, drowning in unhelpful comparison to other moms, or failing to find the joy in the every day, we have a bit of hope for you!
Jennifer is one of my favorite people, not simply because she edits my books, has birthed amazing humans who are some of my kids’ best friends, and tirelessly speaks words of life over everyone she meets but also because she just “gets it,” and she’s for sure “been there” at some point or another with her 12 children, ages 15 to upper 30s.
She is the embodiment of the Titus II, “gone-before” mama friend we all crave, and I know you will be so blessed by this conversation!

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the MS for Mama podcast. I'm your host, Abby Halberstadt, |
| 0:09.1 | happy wife, Mama to 10, Bible Believing Christian, and I have one of my favorite people in the |
| 0:14.7 | world on the show today. Jennifer Flanders is someone that I look up to and admire greatly, and yet she's someone that I can |
| 0:23.6 | also relate to on so many levels. And I know that she's going to be a huge blessing to you as we |
| 0:28.7 | cover a wide variety of topics today. And I want to remind you that it is still possible to |
| 0:36.2 | pre-order my brand new book. You bet your stretch marks. |
| 0:38.9 | I mentioned at the end of the show why this is so important, but I'll say it here as well. |
| 0:42.5 | Those pre-orders tell retailers that you want this book. You're interested in this book. |
| 0:48.0 | And it makes them order more of them. And if they order more of them, then they get motivated to sell them. |
| 0:52.9 | And then more people get to access the book. |
| 0:55.1 | It's really how the publishing world goes these days. |

| 1:08.0 | I also want to highlight before we jump into the conversation with Jennifer, |
| 1:11.6 | our podcast sponsor, Adele Natural Cosmetics. Adel is a favorite of mine because their |
| 1:18.0 | ingredients are non-toxic. They are handmade, small batch. It's a family-owned company here in Texas. |
| 1:25.3 | They love the Lord. I've met that family personally, and they are a delight. And they really care about the products and the ingredients that they |
| 1:33.1 | put in their products so that you can pronounce all of the ingredients easily and that they are |
| 1:37.4 | safe and effective for all skin types. I particularly love their facial stick, which is good for all |
| 1:42.2 | skin types, but particularly for those who are |
| 1:44.6 | acne or redness prone. It's just so soothing. And you can use the code. Emma's for Mama for 25% |
