The Limits of Motherhood
05/20/24 • 31 min

Being a mom means limits exist. We are limited - in our capacity, with the boundaries we set, with the “yes’s” and “no’s” we have to give. But what if the “limits” of motherhood, imposed upon us externally and self-imposed, are actually the on-ramp to abundance and flourishing? Katie reflects on her recent trip to Rome where she met Trisha Yearwood, Garth Brooks, and the Pope, all within 24 hours, and shares how the trip to the eternal city helped her understand limits in a new way.

Like A Mother Rewind: The Mother’s sacrifice and gift with Fr. Patrick Mary Briscoe, O.P.
The words “this is my body, given up for you” are said at every Mass and spoken by every mother, day in and day out, as we wipe and wean and walk with our children through the mess, grime, joy, and delight of daily life. How a mother comes to understand this call to sacrifice and gift of self is perhaps the greatest spiritual journey she’ll ever undertake.
