Hey Friend! This episode isn’t just for mothers but anyone with relationships. 

I’m sure you, like me, have seen all the pictures and posts about kids returning to school. These images got me thinking about what I’m most glad I did while my kids were growing up and what I wish I’d done more. Surprisingly, the answer was the SAME: I don’t regret being present a single minute physically, emotionally, or relationally.  I'd be even more present if I had it to do over. 

But, it’s hard to present with all the distractions life throws at us, isn’t it?

In this episode, we’ll tackle how distractions become detractions. Distractions steal our most precious treasures–relationships with our friends, family, spouse, kids, and yes, even God. 

Let’s not miss the very thing that feeds our souls because we are distracted. Being present is an investment with big returns and no regrets.

Remember, friend; you are loved!
