Faithful Mama Rising I Overwhelm, Mindset, Marriage, Faith, Identity
TOP 10% GLOBALLY RANKED PODCAST!! Do you ever find yourself wondering, "What am I even doing with my life?" Do you put yourself in "time-out" just to catch a breath? Do you ever feel like you belong to everyone else—your husband, your kids, the chores, the commitments—and somewhere along the way, you stopped belonging to yourself?
Well Mama, you are in the right place.
Faithful Mama Rising is a faith-filled podcast for overwhelmed moms who are tired of living in survival mode and ready to rise into the woman they're called to be.
This is where you'll start feeling seen, supported, and grounded again… where you'll reconnect with who you actually are and start leading your life on your own terms.
I'm Mitch—girl mama of two, wife to my hunk-o-hunk of lovin' husband, Andrew, and a former Mom-ster who once lived knee-deep in overwhelm, resentment, and loneliness. For years, I believed the right checklist or perfect schedule would magically fix everything. But no amount of planning stopped the Mom-ster from returning—and it definitely didn't help me feel supported or seen.
Through real conversations, faith, and learning to actually lead myself, I learned how to release the pressure of the endless to-do list, ask for help, reconnect with myself, and—get this—be playful again. My lips literally remembered how to smile.
And now? I'm here to walk this journey with you.
If you're ready to stop chasing quick fixes that only last three days, reclaim the woman God created you to be, and rise out of feeling stuck and into a life of grace, support, and purpose—these are the conversations for you.
So fold the laundry—or don't (honestly, it's clean, that's what matters)—and let's get our change on.

27- Overwhelmed by Anxiety? The "Even If" Mindset Shift That Changes Everything | with Ashanti Watson
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if anxiety isn't the end of your story?
In this episode, I'm joined by Ashanti Watson, host of the Get Free from Anxiety podcast, for an honest conversation about what anxiety looks like, how God met her in one of the darkest seasons of her life, and the simple mindset shift that helped her begin walking in freedom.
Ashanti shares her powerful testimony of battling constant panic attacks, the moment she surrendered everything to God, and why replacing "What if?" with "Even if..." can completely change the way we face fear.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety yourself or simply carrying the weight of overwhelm, this conversation is filled with practical encouragement and biblical hope.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Ashanti's journey from daily panic attacks to lasting freedom
- The moment she cried out to God and everything began to change
- Why anxiety often points to deeper issues of trust and control
- The biblical mindset shift from "What if?" to "Even if..."
- How renewing your mind changes your everyday thoughts
- The role of the Holy Spirit in overcoming fear
- Why peace isn't found in perfect circumstances but in God's presence
- Practical ways to interrupt anxious thought patterns before they spiral
- Encouragement for the mom who feels overwhelmed and exhausted
