Welcome to the very first episode of the This Mama Needs Grace podcast. In this first episode, I introduce who I am and the heart and intention behind TMNG. I give a little background on getting married while still in college, becoming a mom, falling back in love with the sport of running, and my relationship with Christ and how that has ultimately changed everything. As you listen to me ramble about my life, try to count how many times I say “sweet” and “thankful”—it’s a lot! I can’t help it! There are so many sweet things in my life and I really am so thankful.  For this first episode, I read to you my first ever blog post “This Mama Needs”.  I am one very needy person, but my ultimate need, God and his abundant grace, is all I truly need.   I would love to connect with you!
