Extraordinary Moms Podcast

Today I'm speaking with a true mom hero, Rachel Tollestrup. Rachel is the mom of 8 children (ages 2-20) and truly loves being a mom. I ask her many things you might want to know if you were passing them out in public... how much laundry do you do? How do you make time for them all? What kind of laundry detergent do you use with 6 boys? How did you get that body back? And many more! She's so awesome and open, and I loved getting a glimpse into her life.   Show Notes: Follow along with Rachel's family on Instagram Connect with Jessica: Instagram//Facebook//Email

I love our Extraordinary Mom of the Month Award episodes so much. Thanks to all who nominated, but this month I have selected Anna McParlan. She's a mom of two (with one on the way) and is also in the process of adopting a child! She is a military wife who has done her share of solo parenting, she has experienced extreme grief, and we talk about overcoming shame and surrounding yourself with uplifting people. She's so amazing and I'm so glad to know her. Show Notes: Connect with Anna on Instagram: @alonganinlandsea Connect with Jessica: Instagram//Facebook//Email
