Start Scared
Start Scared is the podcast for busy mamas who love their kids but feel like they've lost themselves in the chaos of motherhood. If you're ready to rediscover the woman you are outside of “Mom,” even if you're not sure where to begin, this is the place for you.
Together, we'll tackle the lies we tell ourselves, smash through the excuses holding us back, and gain the clarity we need to start showing up for ourselves unapologetically. Because, Mama, you matter—not just as a mom, but as the incredible woman God created you to be.
It’s time to take that first step toward finding yourself again. Are you ready to Start Scared?
