Among Women Podcast Interview: "Just" A Mom and Proud of It

Please tune into Pat Gohn’s Among Women Podcast today to hear Pat and me chat about one of my favorite topics: Why being “just” a mom is more than enough.

Pat invited me to be a guest on her podcast after I wrote about how I was struggling with listening to God’s call to focus on being a wife and mother in a post entitled “Enough is Enough.” We had a wonderful conversation about the vocation of motherhood, its joys and struggles, finding contentment in your role as mom and wife, and how it’s sometimes tough to meet our own and society’s real or imagined expectations as moms today.

You can listen to the full podcast here. Podcast #15 also features a segment on Blessed Mother Teresa.

Oh, and Pat’s podcast is deserving of some kudos after being a top five finalist in several of the Catholic New Media Awards podcast categories, including Best Podcast by a Woman and Best New Podcast. Congratulations, Pat!

Hi, I’m Kate

 

I'm the author of two nonfiction books Getting Past Perfect and Weightless, a storyteller*, overthinker, eating disorder survivor, mom of five, book junkie, socially awkward nerd as well as a speaker (so basically a walking and talking contradiction), and a perfectionist in recovery.

I am currently working towards my MFA in Fiction at Warren Wilson. Thank you to everyone who has read my drafts, offered feedback, and cheered me on. The writing life is often solitary, but I wouldn’t be here without a community of support.
