Episode 4: Embracing Grace - I Didn't "Let Him" Do It
Join me in the fourth episode about embracing grace for yourself. We all have experienced that time (sometimes regularly) when our kid does something in public that makes other people stop and stare. In this episode, I talk about some of my experiences and why it leaves me feeling like a terrible parent. I share how there is grace for everyone even in those moments for everyone involved.

Episode 3 - Embracing Grace: When I Sound Like My Parents
Join me as I talk about an incident in my youth that started a mental checklist in my head of things I would never say to my children. Of course, coming up with that list is so much easier than keeping our promise about that list. Being a parent is hard and sometimes that saying that your parents said just pops right out of your mouth.
I hope you enjoy the episode and would love to hear from you about those things that your parents said that you promised you'd never say, but have.

Episode 2 - Embracing Grace: When You Explode
Join me in this second episode about embracing grace for yourself. We are all just human and we all have failings. Sometimes we explode and wound others in the explosion. Listen in as I share an experience and talk about my struggle to forgive myself.

Episode 1 – Embracing Grace - The Day of the Fall
The first six episodes I have created a series about “Embracing Grace”. Episode 1 is all about giving yourself grace when something happens to your child, either through something you did or because of something you should have, could have or even tried to prevent. I hope that you walk away feeling encouraged and a little less lonely and scared. I hope that you hear that you should give yourself some grace.

Introduction
I just wanted to take a few minutes and introduce myself to you and let you know what you can expect from me on this podcast. I hope that you will be joining me.
