What do goats have to do with raising great kids? More than you think. 🐐 This episode started as a conversation about mentoring and ended up as one of the most unexpected, Spirit-breathed teachings I have ever sat inside — straight from the Song of Solomon, through Luke 9:48, and into your living room.

If you have ever felt like the most difficult person in your life — your child, your student, the woman you mentor, maybe even yourself — is just too much, too stubborn, too far gone: this is for you.

In today's episode, I invite you to sit with me in the Word. Here is some of what we unpack together in this episode:

🌿 Song of Solomon 1:8 — why the Shepherd told the searching woman to tend her young goats (and what that has to do with finding God in the middle of a season you didn't choose)

📖 Luke 9:48 and the Greek word MIKROTEROS — three layers of meaning inside the word 'least' that will completely change how you see the people in your care

🐐 Why your most stubborn, most chaotic, most headbutting goat is not a problem to manage — they are a calling to honor

🔥 The shift from chaotic goat to the GOAT — greatest of all time — and the one thing that makes the difference

🤍 A word about the season you are in right now, from a woman who has lived in 30 countries and is currently in the hardest season of her life — and is still standing

I also sit with the brilliant Dr. Charity Campbell-Kapella — global leadership expert, founder of International Mamas and Mentors, and mama to a very spirited two-year-old she lovingly calls her own personal goat 😂 — whose words throughout this episode will make you laugh, catch your breath, and finally exhale.

This is Part 2 of 2. If you haven't listened to Part 1 yet, go back — it is the foundation. But if you came back because of the goat teaser at the end of last week's episode? I am so glad you're here. You are not going to be disappointed. 🙌
