The BAD Mom Show

About The BAD Mom Show

Welcome to the BAD MOM Show, where we flip the script on shame and reclaim the stories that moms tell themselves: “I’m too much,” “I’m not enough,” or “I’m just plain bad.” Around here, BAD stands for Blessed, Already approved of, and Divinely designed — to lead your family as the heart of your home. And if that doesn’t sound like you yet, don’t worry. It will. This show is for the moms who feel stuck in the past, overwhelmed by the present, and deep down fear they’re ‘messing it up. It’s for the ones carrying stories they’ve been too ashamed to tell — the fiery, sensitive, strong, loud, emotionally messy, misunderstood woman ready to stop hiding and start healing. Because here’s the truth: God chose you to for your family on purpose. He’s given YOU the authority to lead them boldly. You were divinely designed for this mantle of leadership, to set the tone as the heart of your home. Through raw conversations, real-life stories, biblical truth, and bold encouragement, you’ll be reminded: You are not a failure. You are not the problem. You are not too far gone. And you are absolutely not a bad mom. It’s time to bring shame into the light, reclaim your story, and walk in the freedom that’s already yours. Because mama — your family needs your kind of bold. You’re in the right place. Let’s get started.

   Episode 62: From Critical Burnout to Thriving: Finding Hope, Healing & Rest with Laura Jenkins

   Somewhere along the way, exhaustion starts to feel normal. We push harder, fill every second of the day, take on more than we have margin for, and tell ourselves this is normal. But what happens when your body says, 'I can’t do this anymore'? In this episode of The BAD Mom Show, I’m sitting down with Laura Jenkins, a former high-powered attorney turned entrepreneur and founder of Tikvah Supernaturals. Laura shares her powerful journey through critical burnout, suffering health struggles, and the life-changing lessons God taught her about rest, surrender, and trusting His timing. We also talk about how her healing journey inspired a beautiful entrepreneurial venture: a functional coffee brand she created to bring together the comfort of coffee and the benefits of healthy adaptogens. Her story is a testimony to the fact that even in our hardest seasons, God is close. He never leaves us and fills us with hope (Tikvah). In this episode, we’ll explore: How hustle culture leaves us physically depleted and spiritually disconnected from God What a season of rest could mean- God may be building our capacity for something we can’t yet see How learning to truly rest in the Lord will transform the way we approach motherhood, work, and life. How Laura’s journey led to Tikvah Supernaturals, a brand inspired by her story of healing and hope. Know a woman who needs this reminder?

Laura is an attorney-turned-entrepreneur, wellness founder, and thought leader passionate about helping women live vibrant, nourished lives. After experiencing a dramatic health collapse in her late 30s that left her exhausted, overwhelmed, and searching for answers, she began a journey that transformed not only her health, but her understanding of healing, faith, and surrender. What started as a pursuit of physical wellness became a much deeper lesson in letting go of striving, learning to trust God, and creating a life rooted in peace rather than pressure. Today, Laura is the founder of Tikvah Supernaturals, a premium functional coffee brand focused on calm energy and vibrant aging for women. She lives in Napa, California with her husband and young daughter and is passionate about encouraging women that it is never too late to heal, thrive, and rediscover hope.

   Episode 61: Are You Afraid Of Authority?

   Episode 61: Are You Afraid Of Authority? You can be a strong woman with plenty of opinions and still feel your stomach drop when it’s time to have a hard conversation with someone in a position of authority. I know the feeling, I've had it too. But I've also grown in this area and learned when it's important to have confidence and speak up, especially when it involves my kids. In this episode, I’m sharing a recent experience that challenged me to speak up when something didn’t sit right in my heart. It reminded me that healthy confrontation isn’t about fighting to simply get your way. It’s about speaking the truth in love, standing firm for what matters, and using your voice courageously (which is different than confidently). We’re talking about motherhood, leadership, boundaries, and the fear that can keep us silent—even when we know something needs to be said. In this episode, we’ll explore: How to approach difficult conversations without letting anger or defensiveness take over Why avoiding confrontation isn't always the answer and the lesson we then teach our kids Where the fear to speak up comes from and why it matters How to trust your voice, stand in your God-given authority and model courage in conflicts for your kids You don’t have to be fearless to speak up. In fact, you most likely will still feel afraid saying the hard thing matters enough. Courage means feeling the fear and doing the right thing anyway. Staying quiet could lead to resentment and bitterness. If this episode spoke to you, would you do me a favor and leave a 5-star review and please, share it with a friend.

   Episode 60: Calling vs Assignment and Stewarding Them Well - Part 2 w/Rachel Wortman

   There’s a difference between what God's called you to and what He’s assigned you to in a particular season. Knowing the difference will drastically impact how you approach motherhood, business, and everything you put your hands to. In Part 2 of my conversation with Rachel Wortman, we’re getting deep into significant things like calling, assignment, stewardship, and building kingdom wealth with God. I love this conversation because it challenges the everso common pressure we women put on ourselves to do more, be everywhere, manage everything, all at once- and somehow feel fulfilled. We have a question problem. The question isn’t, “What am I being called to?” but “What is my calling and how am I assigned to to use it in this season?” In this episode, we unpack: What shifts when you stop confusing your calling with your assignment What stewardship means and why it matters to your future How your money mindset, identity, and self-beliefs are impacted by the past What walking with God and building for His kingdom with Him truly looks like If this conversation impacted you, leave a 5-star review and share this episode with a friend.
