Summary

Ever find yourself exhausted in the very life you prayed for? In this week's episode, Jami opens her heart about seasons of weariness and how to trust God when joy seems out of reach. Drawing from a listener's heartfelt question, she offers both spiritual encouragement and practical wisdom for tired moms—especially those in the thick of little years and endless noise.

You'll hear Jami's own stories of fatigue, faith, and God's sustaining grace through motherhood, plus encouragement to check your physical and spiritual health, invite your husband into your struggles, and find joy in everyday faithfulness.

✨ Topics covered:

  • Finding purpose when motherhood feels heavy

  • The difference between physical and spiritual exhaustion

  • Encouragement for moms with multiple young children

  • Training kids in chores (without losing your mind!)

  • Why God's strength meets us right where we're worn out

Listen in for fresh encouragement and truth: your work in the Lord is never in vain.
