Encore Podcast: Finding Hope and Beauty in Motherhood with Rachel Nielson [Season 2 - Episode 20]

Mother Rachel Nielson found Power of Moms when she had a colicky newborn baby and she felt desperate for hope.  In the years since, her challenges as a mother have changed as her children have gotten older, but she has continued to turn to our community for inspiration.  She has also written articles for our website about concrete ways that she finds hope and fulfillment as a mother, even in the hardest of times.

In today’s podcast, Rachel reads four of her articles for you:

• What If I Don’t Like Playing with My Kids? which outlines six strategies for mothers who don’t naturally play
• The Best Year of My Life?, which describes her first year of motherhood with a colicky newborn and what she learned
• Anchored by Beautiful Moments, which includes two strategies for savoring the best moments in motherhood
• Worth Fighting For, which details her own mother’s 13-year-battle with breast cancer and the ways that she taught Rachel to treasure life and the opportunity to be a mother

We hope you will listen to this uplifting podcast, full of hope and ideas for getting through the daily struggles of motherhood, big and small!
