Practically Speaking Mom: Intentional Mom, Strong Family
Do you long to be a more intentional mom but you feel overwhelmed or weary or just don't have a clear path to the next step toward a successful family life? The Practically Speaking MOM, Val Harrison, is here to bring some order to the chaos and some focus to the confusion. You don’t have to be the perfect mom to have a strong family, you need a plan! Join author, speaker, mother of seven, mother-in-law of four, and grandma of five, as she shares wisdom and encouragement about the six areas of an intentional mom's life. You'll learn from her years of experience, successes, mistakes and redemption. Val and her husband Rich have been married 32 years and she's been homeschooling for 25 years. This podcast covers all stages of parenting, from babies to toddlers to teens and beyond. Val wants to encourage you to not become weary in your work as an intentional mom, "Even with all its unique personalities, imperfections and scars; your family is God's masterpiece. Your efforts matter in this worthy journey of motherhood." Galatians 6:9 says, "Do not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time you'll reap a harvest if you do not give up." Let's walk this marathon journey of motherhood TOGETHER, right here, on the Practically Speaking MOM podcast, the place for an intentional mom to build a strong family.

181. Dear Younger Me, with Guest Jyl Griffin, homeschool mom of five
"Dear Younger Me" is an occasional theme on the Practically Speaking MOM Podcast. In this episode we feature Jyl Griffin - wife for 28 years and mom to five children, ages 25-11, with four biological and one adopted child. Jyl was also an adopted child. She beautifully shares how her being adopted impacted how she has chosen for her child's adoption to function.
Today's topics include:
*What an open adoption looks like in their family
*Things Jyl wishes she would have done differently in parenting if she could do it all over again
*22 Lessons she would tell her younger self -Dear Younger Me
Jyl is also a homeschool mom so some of her 22 points are specific to homeschooling, but most of them will also apply to all intentional moms.
CLICK HERE for the blog post from Jyl about the 22 things she would tell her younger self.
