Lent for Tired Catholic Moms: A Gentle Plan

Catholic Mom Calm

If you're a Catholic mom and Lent is coming up — and instead of feeling motivated you feel tired, overwhelmed, or quietly dreading it — this episode is for you. Sometimes Lent feels like too much not because we lack faith, but because we're already carrying a heavy cross. Pregnancy. Postpartum. Chronic exhaustion. Marriage strain. Financial pressure. Ongoing suffering that hasn't let up. In this episode, I talk about a different way to approach Lent when life is already hard. We talk about: * Why not every Lent needs another sacrifice added on * How God may be inviting you to carry the cross you already have more closely with Him * The difference between suffering well and white-knuckling * When adding prayer may be more faithful than giving something up If you liked this episode, you'll also enjoy: Lenten Spiritual Attacks: Why Faith Feels Harder Listen in your browser here A Holy Week Media Fast: Transform Your Prayer Life A Lent Game Plan Listen in your browser here If this is where you are right now — carrying more than you ever expected — I want you to know you're not alone.
