34 Why You Need a Mission Statement: Moving from Exhausted to Empowered in Motherhood

Speaking Life Into Motherhood ~ Routines, Time Management, Holistic Health, Self Care, Autism, ADHD, Neurodiversity, Special Needs, Disabilities

Are you constantly overwhelmed by decisions and drowning in the chaos of special needs motherhood? What if one simple tool could help you find clarity and purpose on even your hardest days? Could having a mission statement be the anchor you've been searching for?

In this episode, I'm getting vulnerable about my journey from infertility and miscarriage to discovering my God-given mission as a mom. I share how that moment of surrender in the shower changed everything and how advocating for my son's dismissed difficulties led me to the work I do today. More importantly, I'm walking you through the exact five steps to create YOUR own mission statement—one that will filter your decisions, give you grace on hard days, and help you move from survival mode to purposeful living.

Five Steps to Create Your Mission Statement:

1. Pray and ask God for clarity about what He's calling you to in this season
2. Identify your 3-5 core values as a mom
3. Think about your unique calling and what you're passionate about
4. Consider what your family needs from you right now
5. Write your 1-3 sentence mission statement that's clear, specific, and meaningful
