Description

Balancing Motherhood and Your Calling in MinistryMotherhood is a beautiful gift, yet we can easily begin to feel guilty if we feel called to do other things or step into other roles. As moms, we often need to be reminded that it's okay for us to function in our positional and missional responsibilities. Our positional responsibility is our role as a mom, while our missional responsibility is the calling outside the family. Sometimes they coexist and other times they are parallel to one another. Join this conversation with Jenn Uren and get equipped to live and leap.Jenn is a mom of five kids and the host of This Mom Knows Podcast. Inspired by her love for home organization, she helps moms lean into what God has called them to do by creating a home that runs smoothly to support their mom-plus lifestyle. In this episode, she shares how understanding her positional and missional responsibilities allowed her to follow her calling and still show up as a mom without feeling guilty. She also shares how she balances her business, podcast, and family to keep their home running, and to have the physical and mental space to work on her passion projects.If you feel overwhelmed by being the mom you were created to be giving the best to your family while trying to pursue your calling, this episode is for you.Now let’s jump in!Key Highlights from the Episode[00:01] Episode intro and a quick bio of the guest; Jenn Uren[01:47] A little bit about Jenn, what she does, and what she’s up to [02:34] The beauty and challenge of motherhood[04:19] How Jen got to the point of helping moms become who God called them to be[07:26] Competing between positional and missional responsibilities[10:08] Internal competition among moms[12:50] What led Jenn into entrepreneurial endeavors[16:52] Jenn’s secret strategies to balance motherhood and calling[19:16] A quick announcement [22:23] The pivotal moment that made it inevitable to develop the balance strategy[25:25] How Jenn took the leap and decided to adopt two kids[30:02] What Jenn talks about in her podcast[32:05] Her attitude when going from one leap to another[34:09] Jenn’s next leap and the best ways to reach out and connect[35:48] Ending the show and call to actionNotable Quotes Most mothers feel they do not have permission to do any other role apart from motherhood.Moms have positional and missional responsibilities.When we understand that the economy of our lives is built on different resources, we stop competing with other people.When creating a motherhood and business balance, it’s important to know when certain things are inevitable.
