<p>I’m so excited to share this special Mothers’ Day episode with Kirsten Watson! As a mom to seven kids, wife to NFL veteran - Benjamin Watson, and cohost of a popular podcast, Kirsten Watson knows what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and exhausted. She has also learned what it takes to thrive, even in the busiest seasons; it all begins with taking a breath.</p> <p>Taking a breath is about inhaling the Word of God so we can exhale peace. Taking a breath is about recognizing our gifts <em>and our limits</em>…it is learning to say yes, <em>and no.</em> It’s about recognizing the significance of our significant other, finding our “dark alley friends”, and growing through every season.</p> <p>In today’s interview Kirsten shares highlights from her beautiful book, Sis, Take a Breath.  This conversation will be a good way to prepare for Mothers’ Day (and every day) with perspective, humor, and plenty of deep breaths.</p> <p><a href= "http://www.monicaswanson.com/episode-156">www.monicaswanson.com/episode-156</a></p> <p>Podcast page (for all episodes) <a href= "http://www.monicaswanson.com/podcast">www.monicaswanson.com/podcast</a></p> <p>* This episode is sponsored by Sarah’s Spanish School, an online Spanish class for kids, with FREE CLASSES in MAY!!
