Korie Robertson and Beth Redman are in different stages of parenting adult children, but one thing is certain: No matter how much fear you have about sending your kids out into the world and hoping they'll come back often, God has already got it under control. It's okay if things change! Korie shares the family traditions that have had to adjust and change as her kids have gotten married and have their own families now, and Beth is honest about her fears with one of her sons moving to New Zealand. Let your adult children be, and let them do their thing — they'll come back to you!

Korie Robertson and Beth Redman have both found themselves running so far they couldn't come up for air — or so it seemed — being busy wives and moms. But they share how they both were able to find — and maintain — balance as they moved through life. Sometimes it meant stepping back from friendships that weren't life-giving or learning when a physical break is needed. Whether that's a firm naptime on Sundays, practicing a sabbath, or just taking some slow time to regroup. It is possible to maintain a balance in whatever you're navigating in life! Sadie's learned the value in social media breaks. And Maisey confesses balance is something she's struggled with, especially in trying to be everything to everybody — which is just not possible. And why she's valuing discernment as a tool in finding balance every day.
Korie Robertson and Beth Redman agree: Marriage is humbling! And it can be hard! They share how they keep an eternal perspective in their marriages, especially when things aren't going as smoothly as they might like. Sadie Robertson Huff talks about a time when she and her husband, Christian, had to go through a tough time in their marriage, but God has redeemed it for both of them. And Maisey encourages anyone who's single and looking forward to marriage with why she's counting this time of singleness as a blessing.
Korie Robertson and Beth Redman share what they've both learned parenting anxious children and how it's important to validate your child's feelings, but not let the anxiety and fear hold them back. And then how to support them but not take on the anxiety yourself as the parent. Then Sadie Robertson Huff and Maisey Redman join their moms to talk about how they've each had to navigate anxiety and fear in their lives, if it's something that they'll always have, and how they intend to keep striving and living life despite it! You'll be encouraged to hear both perspectives on this!
Korie Robertson and Beth Redman are here to attest that knowing exactly what your kids need isn't an exact science, but they do have some experience with meeting the needs of their kids and grandkids! Beth outlines how the roles of "cop" and "coach" intersect as your kids grow. And Korie encourages every parent to instill in your child respect for you (the parent!) and love - at the earliest age possible - so that will continue to grow and flourish in them as they get older, move out, get jobs, find a spouse, and have their own children. Then Sadie Robertson Huff and Maisey Redman join their moms to remember how their needs were met when they were younger and how it's evolved as they've grown and changed.
Sadie Robertson Huff and Maisey Redman join their moms, Korie Robertson & Beth Redman, to reflect on seasons of sorrow. Maisey is amazed at the transformation of her life in the past year, and Sadie remembers a particularly scary situation with her daughter Honey and what that led to in her marriage and in her own mind and heart. If you're going through a particularly difficult season of heartbreak, loss, grief, or questioning, whatever it is, God can handle it and you are not alone! Life is hard, and God is good!
