Raising Godly Children in a Culture That’s Fighting for Them
She Lives Freed with Brittany Dawn NelsonShow Notes
Motherhood today can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re trying to raise children who genuinely love Jesus in a world that constantly pulls them in the opposite direction.
In this episode, I’m joined by Rhonda Stoppe… best-selling author, speaker, and host of the Old Ladies Know Stuff podcast. With over 40 years of marriage, children and grandchildren, Rhonda brings a powerful, multi-generational perspective on what it actually looks like to raise Godly children in real life: not from perfection, but through faithfulness.
We talk about the difference between raising well-behaved kids and raising disciples, how to let go of control and mom guilt, and what it truly means to steward motherhood as a calling… rather than a performance.
If you’ve ever felt the weight of wanting to “get it right” as a mom: this conversation is for you.

What happens when you finally surrender the things you were never meant to carry on your own?
In today’s episode, I sit down with trauma therapist and nervous system expert Rochelle Walsh to talk about burnout from a perspective many women have never considered. Instead of seeing burnout as a lack of faith, discipline, or time management, it's often a sign of nervous system dysregulation.
In today’s episode of She Lives Freed, I have the honor of chatting with Lisa Bevere for a conversation that is both deeply convicting and incredibly freeing. We’re talking about a pattern that so many women fall into, but rarely recognize: nagging, control, and the urge to constantly correct our husbands.Culture normalizes it, social media jokes about it, but Scripture has something very different to say.
