Still a lonely teenager desperately looking for a friend
Ever come home from lunch with friends or playgroup and replay everything you said? Was I too much? Did I sound weird? Do they even want to hang out with me again?
In episode 31 of Mom Maintenance, Anna Stice shares how moving from California to Utah as a teenager left her desperately wanting friends—and how she still sometimes wonders what those girls think of her decades later.
This episode begins a four-part series exploring how insecurity about our worth can affect our relationships. Anna looks at how imagined judgments can keep us from showing up as ourselves, and offers a simple maintenance exercise to help separate what we know from what we’re afraid others think.

The Messy Wonderful Life You Might Be Missing
What if the thing keeping you from enjoying your life isn’t your actual life—but the picture in your mind of what it should look like?
In this episode, we’re talking about the gap between the life we expected and the messy, imperfect life we’re actually living. I’ll share how my own expectations of motherhood created guilt, resentment, and disappointment—and how constantly arguing with reality can cause us to miss the people, love, and beauty already in front of us.
You’ll learn how to notice the “shoulds” shaping the way you see your home, your relationships, your children, and yourself—and ask one powerful question: What might I be missing while I’m focused on how this should be different?
Your life may not look the way you imagined, but that doesn’t mean something has gone wrong. Maybe the imperfection is exactly where the beauty is.

What Thoughts Are STEERing Your Life?
Have you ever felt like your thoughts were coming so fast that you couldn’t grab onto a single one of them? When thoughts like “I’m failing,” “I can’t handle this,” or “Something has gone wrong” go unnoticed, they can quietly steer our emotions, actions, and results.
In this episode, Anna explains how awareness helps us use our agency more intentionally—and how Jesus Christ can anchor us when our minds feel like a swirling storm. She shares two powerful truths that can change how you move through fear and uncertainty: You are priceless to Him, and through Him, everything is going to work out.
Your thoughts may appear automatically, but you don’t have to automatically believe them. You can notice what is steering you, take back the wheel, and move forward in faith.
