💔 Do you ever catch yourself wondering, “What if my relationship with my kids ends up just like mine with my mom?” You're not alone, and today’s guest gets it—deeply.

In this heart-to-heart episode, I sit down with 💫 Kim Damon, founder of Midlife Discoveries – Worthy Moms and host of the Midlife Worthy Moms podcast.

Beloved Mom,

Join me today for this 💗 heartfelt conversation with mom, entrepreneur, and event designer Danica LePorte, who goes deep into the beautiful, and sometimes bumpy, road of mother-daughter relationships in adulthood.

Danica vulnerably shares her own journey and opens the door for moms like you to consider how communication, curiosity, and clear expectations can turn generational tension into mutual understanding.

Whether you’re the mom or the daughter (or both), this episode will leave you feeling seen, supported, and encouraged.

As always, our mission at Mom2Mom Mentoring is to help you Live Powerfully, Lead with Purpose, and Love with Passion—even in the most delicate relationships.

Mother’s Day isn't all flowers and breakfast in bed—especially for the busy, faithful, Kingdom-minded mom who's quietly carrying disappointment behind her smile.

In this raw and hope-filled episode, Misty shares her personal journey of navigating the emotional rollercoaster of Mother’s Day over nearly 40 years of motherhood. From early joy to later resentment, from unmet expectations to a powerful encounter with God’s truth—this episode speaks to the mom who feels unseen, uncelebrated, or just plain tired.

If you’ve ever whispered, “Is it too much to want to feel appreciated?”—this conversation is for you. Misty opens up about the transformation that happened when she stopped tying her worth as a mom to her children’s responses, and started anchoring her identity in what God says about her.

💬 You’ll reflect on:

• The complicated emotions behind Mother’s Day for many working moms

• How to shift your mindset from bitterness to blessing

• Why rest, recognition, and reconnection matter more than material gifts

• A powerful reminder:

You are not a failure—you are a faithful, fierce, and flourishing mom

💡 Whether you're in the thick of parenting, navigating adult children, or somewhere in between—this episode invites you to pause, process, and pursue peace.

👣 Take the Next Step: If this message stirred something in you, don’t keep going alone. Book a free Clarity Call with Misty to talk through what’s rising in your heart. Sometimes the most healing thing we can do is say, “This matters.”

🎧 Listen in, share with a mom friend who needs encouragement, and don’t forget to leave a 5-star review so more women can find the hope they’re searching for.

Taste and see that the LORD is good.

Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him! Psalm 34:8 NLT

♡ Are you running on empty, 💔 barely surviving the demands of motherhood, ♥︎ work, and ❤️‍🩹 faith?

In this powerful Maundy Thursday episode, Misty invites you to pause and taste and see that the Lord is good.

Through a relatable story (yes, we’re talking about Life cereal and green eggs & ham), a cup-swapping Gospel truth, and a bold invitation to sacred pause—this episode offers hope, conviction, and a better way forward.

In this contemplative episode, you'll discover:

• Why you keep drinking from the “cup of madness”—and how to exchange it for the life-giving cup of God’s goodness.

• How spiritual disconnection often shows up in survival mode—and what to do about it.

• A simple, sacred invitation to pause, realign, and rediscover your God-given identity.

You were made for more than survival, Mama. You were made to SHINE. ✨

Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people. Philippians 2:15 NLT

Ok Mom,

🤔💭 Imagine if your brain were a web browser, except instead of having a few neatly organized tabs open, you've got 137 tabs running.

🎶 Five of them are playing music you can't find, ◌♾️ One is stuck buffering ☕ᝰ.ᐟ While you are just trying to figure out where you left your coffee.

That, my friends, is often the experience of a mom with ADHD. ADHD in adults, particularly moms, is a real and often misunderstood challenge.

It's not just about being scatterbrained or losing your keys for the 10th time today. It's about how executive dysfunction makes managing a household feel like juggling flaming swords while blindfolded.

The mental load of schedules, laundry, meal planning, and keeping tiny humans alive can be overwhelming for any mom.

But for those with ADHD it's like trying to organize a closet while a 🌪️tornado (or a toddler) keeps pulling everything back out.

The good news.

ADHD also comes with some incredible strengths,

💪🏽 creativity, 💪🏽 💪🏽 hyperfocus, 💪🏽 💪🏽 💪🏽 ability to problem solve, 💪🏽 💪🏽 💪🏽 💪🏽 an empathetic heart, and so much MORE.

But how do you move from barely surviving to actually thriving?

Well, that's exactly what we're diving into today with my guest, Audra Queen, the powerhouse behind Thriving Queen Coaching

In this episode of Mom2Mom Mentoring, we’re diving deep into the reality of ADHD and autism in motherhood with Audra. We unpack executive dysfunction, sensory sensitivities, and the grief and empowerment that come with a late diagnosis.

🦸🏻‍♀️ Audra shares her journey to self-acceptance, how she’s learned to embrace her neurodivergence as a superpower, and why most of the world is actually neurodivergent—but society just isn’t built for us.

“Most of the world is neurodivergent. The problem isn’t us—it’s that the world wasn’t built for us.” – Audra Queen

👋🏽 Hey Mama,

Have you ever noticed how easy it is to focus on what’s missing? 🔍

❌The messy house,

❌ the to-do list that never ends,

❌ the ways you feel like you don’t measure up?

It’s like our 👀 eyes are naturally drawn to the gaps, the voids, the places where we feel like we’re falling short.

But what if I told you that what you behold is what you become?

In this episode, we’re flipping the script and learning to fix our eyes on who God is instead of what we think is lacking. We’ll dive into the story of the 12 spies from Numbers 13-14—how ten of them focused on the giants and fear, while Joshua and Caleb fixed their gaze on the faithfulness of God.

The result?

Their perspective shaped their destiny.

And, friend, the same is true for us!

I’ll also share two practical ways to shift your focus back to Jesus in your everyday life. Whether you’re unloading the dishwasher, running late for school drop-off, or feeling the weight of all your responsibilities, these small shifts will help you see God’s presence in the middle of it all.

Oh, and I’ve got a special free resource just for you—one that’s been near and dear to my heart since 1998. It’s a list of The Names of God & Scripture References, passed down from my mentor Kathleen Kennedy. This is the very tool that helped me learn to pray God’s names instead of dwelling on life’s struggles, and I want to share it with you!

⚓ Download it now at mom2mommentoring.com/namesofgod and let your heart be anchored in who He is.

If this episode encouraged you, be sure to share it with a friend and leave a review. And always remember:

When you shine, you give others permission to shine too! 💛✨

HERE IS YOUR FREE NAMES OF GOD GUIDE to enhance your personal prayer life.
