More Than A Mom with Kari Kampakis : [Episode 99]

Melissa Clark

Hello Friends!

As I’ve mentioned before, we are in the middle of a year-long series about you learning to live healthy.

There is a lot we need to do to keep ourselves healthy. For example, self-care isn’t about taking a nap or spending the afternoon at the spa. It is caring for your whole self - body, mind, and spirit.

On the show, I’m joined once again by Kari Kampakis, an author, speaker, podcaster, and newspaper columnist from Birmingham, Alabama. Kari and I talk about her new book, self-care, and cultivating all of our relationships, especially those adult relationships and friendships.

Kari’s work has been featured on The TODAY Show, TODAY Parents, Focus on the Family, EWTN, Bethany Hamilton’s Mother/Daughter ‘Ohana Program, Yahoo! News, Grown & Flown, FaithGateway, Jesus Calling, Your Teen, Mother.ly,  For Every Mom, Love What Matters, Ann Voskamp’s blog, The Huffington Post, Thrive Global, and other national outlets. She and her husband, Harry, have four daughters and their dog,  Lola.

Listen in to learn more about :

Catch up with Kari and why she wrote another parenting book.
How our worth relates to our parenting style and how it leads to being more bore prone to exhaustion.
As women and mothers, we can sometimes let sacrifices evolve into self-neglect, and what can we do to prevent that?
Pursuing our kids even when they don’t pursue us. We can’t rely on our children for our own self-worth, especially during the teenage years.
