God Knew You Would Struggle... and He Chose You Anyway
Have you ever wondered if you're enough for the children God has entrusted to you?
In this heartfelt conversation, Kirstin sits down with her dear friend, Kista, to talk about motherhood, infertility, foster care, adoption, faith, and learning to trust God through life's unexpected paths.
Kista shares her remarkable journey from years of infertility and IVF to becoming a foster mom, adopting multiple children, navigating special needs, and discovering that God had been leading her every step of the way.
Together, they explore what it means to become a Radiant Mother not by striving for perfection, but by deepening your relationship with Jesus Christ.
One of the most powerful moments in this episode comes from a simple realization:
"God knew I would struggle... and He chose me anyway."
If you've ever questioned your ability as a mother, felt overwhelmed by the weight of your responsibilities, or wondered if you're doing enough, this conversation offers hope, grace, and a reminder that Christ walks with us through every season.
