I’M A MELANCHOLY WITH MORE JOY THAN I THOUGHT POSSIBLE

Hi! I’m Valerie Woerner. Just your average mom who was spending way too much time frustrated with short naps, spilled milk and mundane days. I expected refreshment to come behind a locked bathroom door or on a beach somewhere but it started happening in my mind when I was able to identify twenty lies the world tells us about motherhood that were sabotaging my joy. The best part? Realizing those triggers is half the battle and requires way less striving than I though.

ARE YOU READY TO IDENTIFY THOSE SUBTLE LIES?

In Grumpy Mom Takes a Holiday, we’ll address the 20 misconceptions the world has about motherhood and see how it’s affecting us. Then we’ll find hope in the truth God tells us about motherhood to replace the lies all without leaving home.
