Connect What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

The most rewarding part of being a Mom is seeing God‘s work unfold over time. You wonder if they’re listening – but they are. My boys are 26, 21, and 12, and now I see those seeds and who they’ve become – kind, grounded, and doing the right thing. I’m far from perfect, but God fills the gaps. Hearing them, as adults, say they love me and appreciate me… That’s everything.

What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?

The biggest lesson motherhood has taught me is that my children are not mine – their God’s. I’ve been trusted to love, guide, and raise them, but they are only on loan. I can pour into them and teach them right from wrong, but I can’t choose their path. That belongs to Him. Learning to trust God with their lives, not control them, has been both the hardest and most beautiful gift.

What would you do with $20,000?

I truly love real estate… it’s more than a job, it’s a calling. I believe God is using it as a vehicle for something bigger. As a business owner, I’ve learned to be resourceful, but I would use this to invest I leadership coaching, systems, and my brand to grow intentionally. That growth allows me to serve at higher level, give back to addiction and recovery programs, and mentor others. For me, success is about impact.
