In this busy life, it helps when you can find a way to catch your breath amidst the chaos. It helps even more when you have a friend who knows what you’re going through and has your back. This week, that friend is Kristen Watson, who – along with her husband, a first-round NFL draft pick and Super Bowl Champion, Benjamin Watson – are back on the podcast! The Watsons join Paula for an encouraging conversation on the eve of Kirsten’s debut book, “Sis, Take a Breath: Encouragement for the Woman Who’s Trying to Live and Love Well (but Secretly Just Wants to Take a Nap)”. It’s all about navigating the stress and fears of life, one simple breath at a time.
This real, honest book was a labor of love that required Kirsten to reach for her faith out of a place of deep fear and doubt. She tells Paula about the lies she’s heard for years that kept her thinking “never in a million years” would she be called to use her words and become an author one day. Kirsten shares how she found the courage to battle the voices in her head, steward her platform and bring this beautiful book into fruition.
If you’re in the thick of it all and feeling weary, you will feel seen by this conversation and encouraged by Kirsten, who recalls just a few short years ago struggling to understand how “singing ‘The Wheels on the Bus’ all day” as a mom to seven was fulfilling her big career aspirations. Now looking back, hear Kirsten share how God was quietly transferring her gifts into supporting the day-in-and-day-out of her family and preparing her for the assignments yet to come.
The Watsons also catch Paula up on their AccessMore podcast, “Why or Why Not with the Watsons,” where they continue to keep it real! You will love their unofficial “Like Policy.” Find out how they continue learning about, challenging, and celebrating each other amidst launching a book and potty training their adorable twin boys.
