Speaking Life Into Motherhood ~ Rhythms, Child Development, Homeschool, Special Needs, Speech Delay, Systems, Autism, ADHD, Neurodiversity, Disabilities
**Top 3% Globally Ranked Podcast!**
Are you a Christian mom exhausted from navigating a tough season with your child? Are you worried your child is not developing normally, but have been told to "wait and see"? Has your child already been identified as having additional needs?
I'm Elyse, Speech Language Pathologist, Special Needs and Homeschool Strategy Coach, Family Advocate and a 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 whether you just have general concerns and are trying to be proactive, or your child has a speech delay, ADHD, autism, or developmental diagnosis, my goal is for you to feel supported and seen. You'll learn about typical development, alternative 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 or trying to decide whether to homeschool your child- 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.

Are you praying every day but still feel like you can't hear God clearly? Do you find yourself worrying to God instead of actually listening? If anxiety and overwhelm are drowning out God's voice in your life — and you're not sure how to help your kids connect with Him either — this episode is for you.
In this episode, I sit down with Heather O'Brien — prophetic healing coach, Bible teacher, and host of the Heal with God podcast — to talk about why anxious moms struggle to hear God, practical daily rhythms that open up space for His voice, and creative ways to teach even young children how to tune in to God in everyday life. Heather even shares a game she plays with her kids that had her 3-year-old pointing to the exact card God showed him — you won't want to miss it.
