Welcome back to the Midnight Series, where the conversations run deep, the lights are low, and nothing is off-limits.

In this honest late-night talk, McKenzie and Rebecca open up about the messy, beautiful, and often exhausting reality of motherhood. From the tug-of-war between career and calling to the unseen mental load of raising kids, they share stories that every mom will recognize in her own way.

The conversation holds space for the joy and gratitude children bring, but also the tears behind closed doors: the bedtime struggles, postpartum fog, and the constant question of “am I doing enough?” Woven throughout is the reminder that God meets us in the chaos, offering grace, provision, and a steady hand when we feel stretched too thin.

We talk about:

• The tension between being present at home and pursuing work you love
• The unseen weight of schedules, mental load, and trying to “do it all”
• Postpartum realities, breastfeeding, and finding your new normal
• The role of faith in navigating motherhood’s hardest nights
• Why every mother’s journey is sacred, unique, and worthy of celebration

If you’ve ever laid awake after the kids finally fell asleep, wondering if you’re enough, this episode is for you.
