Summary

Hey fam! Today’s episode is such a special one! We were honored to have Kirsten Watson join Milena to talk all things family, motherhood, and sometimes needing to slow down to ensure Christ remains central in our lives. As a mom of seven kids, wife of a professional athlete and cohost of a popular podcast, Kirsten is often asked by other women, “How do you do it?” They see her with her hands full and wonder, What keeps her going—and smiling—with everything she’s juggling? Kirsten’s answer begins with a simple first step: take a breath. The second step is also simple: lean in and understand that the Word of God gives us the breath we need to handle every situation because when we inhale God’s Word, we exhale peace. Be on the lookout for Kirsten’s new book—Sis, Take a Breath: Encouragement for the Woman Who’s Trying to Live and Love Well (but Secretly Just Wants to Take a Nap)—available everywhere on May 3rd, 2022.

Verse of the Day:
“Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her” - Proverbs‬ ‭31:28‬
