Feeling like a frazzled, coffee-reheating, “I’ve got this” mom who’s actually barely holding it together? You’re not alone. Welcome to Unlikely Housewives — the Christian mom podcast where two real women (and moms) trade people-pleasing for freedom, self-care for soul-care, and “the hustle” for a life of purpose.

Tracy and Tori are Christian moms who met after moving their families across the country and realized they were both faking it, lonely, and tired of comparison. We’re recovering people-pleasers and straight shooters who believe God calls the unlikely — and that you were made for more than just surviving motherhood, marriage, and the daily grind.

On this show, we talk real about:

Christian parenting with purpose (and the mess that comes with it)
Marriage, faith, and the hard conversations no one wants to have
Women’s health, emotional baggage, and ditching cultural lies
How to stop pretending and start living with hope as a Christian mom

If you’re a busy, isolated Christian mom looking for encouragement, laughter, and a reminder that you’re not alone — this is your tribe. Pull up those high-waisted yoga pants, tighten your top knot, reheat your coffee (again), and let’s rise together in faith, motherhood, and marriage.

Summer Series: Faith & Politics

Tuesday Jul 19, 2022

Who was raised with the beliefs to never talk about politics, race or religion? Who was raised growing up talking about both freely? Tori and Tracy each have a different story that may shed some light on how these topics can help or hinder understanding one another.

One common theme for them both is that we discovered if we aren't talking, we aren’t learning. And it’s so important to learn where each other comes from to understand their beliefs and values. Perspective is everything.

“I never considered a difference of opinion in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as a cause for withdrawing from a friend.” Thomas Jefferson

We found this above quote to be one that pertains more now to our culture today than ever before.

We cover some common stereotypes that have been used in referencing those of faith and in political parties yet we believe This gives false understanding of who people are and what they truly believe.

Not talking, learning and involving yourself and understanding leads to

Avoiding conflict with relationships you value.

Our hope is that friends will give more weight to the person they've known for years, more than whom she chooses to vote for.

There’s also something to say about finding people who align with you, your views and your values.

“You don’t lose friends because real friends can never be lost. You lose people masquerading as friends, and you’re better for it.” ~Mandy Hale

We call this pruning!

Just remember that whenever you are in need and want support, you will need friends, and not governments.

What to do if people don’t have the same view points as you?

💙Accept the fact that not everyone needs to be in your inner circle

💙Talk on the phone or FaceTime, not in text or messaging…you need to hear their heart and voice.

💙Also, Gma was right, you can agree to disagree…we like to say “you can agree AND disagree AND still be friends”
