I have some exciting news to share with you all! Can you believe it? We're expecting baby number five! 

Now, I know some of you might have seen this coming, but trust me, the decision-making process was far from easy. In fact, I spent months searching for a sign that would help me determine which direction to take. And you know what? I finally found my answer, but little did I know, there was a curveball waiting for me that I could never have anticipated.

Join me as I share my story of unexpected challenges and newfound joy. I'll take you through my decision-making process, some of the unforeseen lows where I began to question my ability to handle it all, as well as the highs of peace and complete surprise. While it didn’t go as planned, through it all, I found the strength to appreciate what I had and stay true to my purpose. So, whether you're a mom of one or six, or even if you're still figuring out your own story, I promise you'll find inspiration in this episode. 


In this episode, I talk about…..

  • How we made the decision to have a fifth child.
  • Dealing with feelings of uncertainty and fear during the decision-making process.
  • Coping with unexpected depression and anxiety.
  • Getting that big fat positive!
  • Finding my role and purpose for our family.
