About this listen
In this episode of The Discerning Mother Podcast, Brigid sits down with Carrie Walker, a wife, mother of seven, former youth minister, and award-nominated author of Emma’s Hero. Carrie shares the incredible journey that led her from full-time ministry to full-time motherhood to writing her debut novel, inspired by a teen she once mentored whose baby defied medical odds.
Together, Brigid and Carrie explore:
-
What it means to truly discern God's timing for your family and your dreams
-
Carrie's experience with adoption and biological motherhood
-
How God placed a story on her heart and made a way when it seemed impossible
-
The tender topic of babies diagnosed as "incompatible with life" and how fiction can be a place of healing for grieving families
-
Why writing (and reading!) stories of hope and redemption matters more than ever
If you've ever struggled with discernment, grief, creativity, or wondering how to make space for your calling in the midst of motherhood, this heartfelt conversation will feel like a warm cup of coffee with two trusted friends.
