Ep. 369 – Setting a Sustainable Example for Your Girl as a Modern Working Mom

What does it look like to faithfully navigate work, motherhood, and calling—all at the same time?  

In this honest and encouraging episode of  Raising Godly Girls , co-hosts Melissa Bearden and Natalie Ambrose open the door to a conversation so many moms are living in real time: the journey of being a working mom. Whether  you're   in   the home , in the office, working remotely, or juggling a side hustle, this episode meets you right where you are.  

Melissa and Natalie share their own stories—highlighting the ebb and flow of seasons, the factors that shape work decisions, and the reality that for many families today, motherhood and work are deeply intertwined. With over 24 million working mothers in the U.S., this  isn't  a fringe conversation— it's  everyday life for  a majority of  families.  

But instead of debating whether moms  should  work, this episode focuses on something far more meaningful: how Christian moms can approach work with a Biblical  W orldview. That means keeping priorities aligned, avoiding the trap of career as an idol or idleness as an escape, and inviting God into every decision along the way.  

In this week's  Raising Godly Girls Minute , Patti Garibay speaks to the very real overwhelm modern parents face—and gently redirects hearts back to the Lord. When stress rises and culture offers quick fixes, Scripture reminds us that true peace is found in crying out to God and trusting Him as our steady foundation. And  perhaps most  importantly—our daughters are watching. They are learning how to respond to pressure, stress, and responsibility by  observing  us.
