Capturing the Joy with Ruthie Gray (Ep #11)

"How do I make my 11 year old son like his 10 year old sister? He hasn't been a fan of hers since she was born." "How can a Mom capture the joy when life is crazy?" "How did you not lose yourself as you poured yourself out for your children?"

These are some of the things Ruthie and I chat about on this episode of the TruthChats Podcast! Ruthie asked some of her Instagram followers what questions they would like her to answer on the podcast today, which added a super great twist to our conversation. I know you're going to love this episode!

About Ruthie: Ruthie Gray is a wife, Gigi, and recent empty nester. Amazed at managing to rear four individuals to adulthood, she loves encouraging moms that they too can do this motherhood gig. Ruthie mentors moms to capture joy using humor, advice, and practical application of the Word at Ruthie Gray.Mom.  Her hobbies include consuming mass quantities of coffee, RV-ing with hubby, and creating fun hashtags like #muffintopsrock and #Gigirules.  Connect with Ruthie on Instagram, because that’s the playground where she spends most of her days.
