The Motherhood Experience
United States
Приєднався 8 лип 2023
I'm Val, the host of The Motherhood Experience. In sharing my motherhood story with others, I got to listen in on the journeys of other moms and thought - why don't we all share with one another?
The Motherhood Experience is a podcast for all mothers, by all mothers. Interviewing everyday moms in the trenches, you're sure to share a laugh, a tear, and a recipe or two. Grab your coffee, your headphones, and join us for the conversation!

Homeschool, History & Happiness: Nicki Truesdell (Ep. 068)
Переглядів 1319 годин тому
Nicki is passionate about homeschool and history, and it's evident once you hear her speak about either, how they are sources of joy in her life! I first met Nicki at the North Dakota homeschool convention a few years ago, and had no idea about her story until we recorded this episode. My facial expressions speak for themselves, but this is an episode you're going to find fascinating, I have no...

Rachel Kleppen gave birth (twice!) in another country and begin her journey of motherhood in Taiwan, while there as a missionary. And yes, we happen to be related!

Переглядів 3921 день тому
This was my first time chatting with Rebekah, after her sister and previous podcast guest, Candace Alford, suggested we connect for the podcast. And what a treat this was! Rebekah was so sweet and our conversation was so much fun. I enjoyed learning about her life as a farmer's wife and her experience being a mom to three (young!) littles. Rebekah showed wisdom beyond her years and I'm grateful...

When Hubs and I settled into a church in Fargo, we met Paula and Jonathan Geiger, who were part of a small group we had been invited to join.

It was so heartwarming to catch up with Paula and hear about her life with her seven children, one of whom has a rare genetic condition.

Переглядів 4Місяць тому
Brianne Price is living out her motto to "Lean In". After experiencing incredibly difficult pregnancies and long-term effects on her mental health, Brianne shares how she has her spark back, what she has learned along the way, and how being a mom who leans in - to her marriage, her children, her career, and most importantly, to her faith in Jesus - is far more promising than being a mom who los...
The Torchbearer Mom of Josiah's Fire: Tahni Cullen (Ep. 060)
Переглядів 1502 місяці тому
Tahni Cullen spoke at a women's retreat I emceed over ten years ago, and her story is one I'll never forget. I sat alone in the front row and wept as she shared about how her son, Josiah, a happy, talkative baby, regressed at the age of 19 months into the world of a non-speaking autistic diagnosis. When Josiah was around 7 or 8 years old, he began spelling, and the fire within him roared. Tahni...
Finding Life After Unsurmountable Loss: Brenda Coombs (Ep. 059)
Переглядів 472 місяці тому
Brenda Coombs' story, while one of substantial tragedy and trauma, is one of encouragement, endurance, and ultimate victory. Brenda's first husband took his life, and five years later, two of her children died in a car accident. This is one of, if not *the* most powerful TME episodes I've had the honor of recording to date. Follow TME on Instagram: _themotherhoodexperience

Переглядів 172 місяці тому
Hubs and I sat down for this special "World Beard Day" episode that has nothing to do with anyone's motherhood experience, but we did talk about how the podcast got started, his role in it all, and you'll get a front-row seat to how amazing we are at ineffective communication. It was fun for us, and hopefully, it is also a fun episode for you. Find us on Instagram: _themotherhoode...

Kristi and I met in 2009 when we worked at the same bank. Neither of us had children when we met, and we have experienced life together through some hard realities of parenting since. Kristi's motherhood story has always been near and dear to my heart, especially that of her miracle 23-week micropreemie, Ava. I love that Kristi shared so openly in this episode about all of her miracles of mothe...

What follows is a series of unexpected tragedies, and Katie's resilience in the face of it all. I am so glad she shared her story on the podca...

Thanks for sharing Laura. Such a powerful story.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for posting this conversation. Sharing with my daughter-in-law.❤
Thank you for watching and sharing!
Thank you for your encouraging words! On this journey with you.
🧔🏽🧔🏽🧔🏽🧔🏽 Well done guys! 😆
10:20 Tues am. Very informative interview. Thank you.
100 percent! I agree about the 4 R's, and putting relationship before the other R's. I guess it's not all about checking the boxes like I originally thought as well. Thank you for this podcast episode and for sharing about the convention you went to. I listened to it while preparing for a new school year. =)
Thanks so much, Tawny! Glad I could keep you company! :)
Wow, this was a great interview!
Thank you for having me! *My first homeschool convention was when we were engaged
Y’all are so cute ❤❤😊
An honor to be a part of TME ❤
I don't homeschool, never have but I certainly enjoyed the podcast. Mom
Loved, loved, loved that podcast!! I do remember a thing or two differently than you described. Probably my favorite podcast so far. Think we can all understand why. Mom/Gramma
