Manage episode 510027549 series 3688341
Sarah Pape (mom of two, former high school teacher, writer, and pickleball enthusiast) is a stay-at-home mom learning to navigate the messy, refining work of motherhood. She joins host Katie Schultz to talk candidly about her transition from a deeply fulfilling teaching career into the unpredictable days at home with toddlers. Sarah opens up about the fears she carried into staying home, the comparisons that weighed her down, and the community that helped her find her footing. She shares how routines, small hobbies, and unhurried moments with her girls have become lifelines in a season that has stretched her identity and deepened her faith.
Katie and Sarah talk through the tension of missing a former calling while embracing a new one, the surprising sanctification of laundry piles and toddler tantrums, and the freedom to parent without fitting into a mold. Together, they explore what it looks like to give yourself grace, lean into community, and discover joy in the ordinary rhythms of staying home.
