I LOVE the hoilidays. Nostalgia, traditions, cozy sweaters and hot drinks.

All the delicious food, the friends & family, and celebrating Jesus just warms my heart. 

But, like anything in life, there are ways that stress, anxiety, comparison, and overwhelm can creep into this busy season if you let them.

Especially after the year we’ve had, right?!

You may already be starting to feel the holiday stress creeping up.

Maybe you’re in the middle of the holiday “to-dos” “shoulds” and “have-tos”.

You know what I’m talking about. Those things that you put pressure on yourself to do because you think you should or because you’ve always done it that way. 

Or maybe because you don’t want to disappoint someone…mmm hmmm.

More about the Gotcha Mama Podcast:

The Gotcha Mama Podcast is where we share honest stories of the joys and struggles of mom-life with young kids.

Each week host Amanda Bennett interviews a mom about topics ranging from awkwardly making mom friends, to chasing BIG dreams and finding purpose, to managing crippling anxiety and depression. You’ll hear stories from moms like you with the purpose to inspire, encourage, and entertain you.

We understand that motherhood can be lonely and make you doubt yourself. The Gotcha Mama Podcast exists to let you know that you are not alone as a busy mom of young kiddos, no matter what you’re dealing with.

The show is all about tearing down our insecurities as moms by honestly sharing our stories and a little of what we’ve learned along the way.

We believe it’s a whole lot better riding the rollercoaster of motherhood together!
