Speaking Life Into Motherhood ~ Systems, Special Needs Parenting, Rhythms, Child Development, Autism, ADHD, Neurodiversity, Disabilities
Are you a Christian mom exhausted from parenting a child with special needs? Are you worried your child is not developing normally, but have been told to "wait and see"?
I'm Elyse, Speech Language Pathologist, Wellness Coach, and mom who has walked this journey. After being dismissed by providers about my own son's needs, I had to learn how to advocate fiercely—and I discovered how often exhausted moms like us are told to just "wait and see" when we know something more is needed.
That's why I created Speaking Life Into Motherhood. Each week, you'll gain the tools and confidence to advocate for your child with ADHD, autism, or developmental differences. You'll learn natural wellness strategies that actually simplify your life (not complicate it), discover simple systems that create healthy rhythms for your neurodivergent family, and receive biblical truth that meets you right where you are in the trenches of motherhood.
Whether you're navigating IEPs, searching for alternatives to medication, or just trying to get through the day with energy left for yourself, this podcast equips you with what you need to make the best decisions for your child—and finally feel empowered instead of overwhelmed.

47// What 10 Months of Saying "Not Me, Lord" Taught Me About Motherhood
Are you wondering if any of what you're doing is actually working?
Do you ever feel like you're just barely surviving instead of thriving?
What if the seeds you're planting are growing even when you can't see them yet?
In this special episode, I get ready to celebrate ONE YEAR of Speaking Life Into Motherhood and share the story of how a "zinger from the Lord" in the shower led to 10 months of arguing with God before finally saying yes. I offers a pep talk reminding you that progress doesn't always look like progress—and that YOU are exactly who God chose for this motherhood journey.
