    Moms are Human, Too: Why Self-Care is a Good Thing

    Date: Jun 26, 2023

    Guests: Kari Kampakis

    As a younger mom, Kari Kampakis didn’t believe in rest — she was full-throttle doing everything she could for her kids. But over time, she recognized the need for healthy rhythms to bring her life back into balance and observed how the older we get, the more our body dictates what we can and cannot do. Kari shares the importance of mom’s fighting for what’s right — especially in spiritual battles.
