• 76: How to Help Your Child Choose Healthy Friends at School: Building Faithful Friendships
    Nov 23 2024

    Hello Mama! Welcome to the Rooted Working Mom Podcast, where we empower God-led working moms to nurture their faith while successfully navigating our careers and family life. Now that the new school year is well underway and parent/teacher conferences wrap up, I was reminded that one of the important areas of focus for us as moms is the friendships our children form. The friends our children choose can have a profound impact on their preferences, behaviors, academic performance, and faith journey. In today’s episode, we explore the significance of praying for our children's friends, especially as they navigate the challenges and opportunities of the school year. We’ll discuss the influence that friends have on our kids and why it’s crucial for them to be surrounded by peers who share their faith and values. I give you five tips on how you can help your children choose healthy friendships. We close with a heartfelt prayer over our children’s friendships and the remaining school year, asking for God’s guidance and protection in every aspect of their lives. Whether your child is in kindergarten, high school, or in college this episode is designed to help you cover them in prayer and set them up for a school year filled with God’s love, wisdom, and faithful friendships. Rooted in God’s love. Blessings, Cynthia 💖

  • 75: 5 Ways to Trust God in the Waiting
    Apr 26 2024
    Hello Mama! Welcome back to the Rooted Working Mom podcast! I’m Cynthia Castro, your host and it is an honor to be with you today as we talk about trusting God during seasons of waiting. As Rooted Working Moms we anchor our identity, purpose, and trust in Jesus. It's about deepening our relationship with Jesus and saying Yes & Amen to our calling of both motherhood and career. Just as a tree draws nourishment from its roots, we draw our strength and guidance from Jesus, allowing His love to transform us and bear fruit in our lives. Often transformation involves seasons of waiting – waiting for a shift in our current life season, a new career or business opportunity, a promotion, an answered prayer, or perhaps even waiting for the arrival of another child. In these moments, it's easy to feel anxious or discouraged. But as women of faith, we are called to trust in God's perfect timing and surrender to His plans and will for our lives. Drawing from the wisdom of Psalms 27:14, we explore how waiting is not a passive experience but an opportunity for growth and a deeper connection with Jesus. I share five practical, biblically-based tips to navigate the waiting season with grace and faith. So grab your pen and notebook and let’s dive in! Rooted in God’s love. Blessings, Cynthia

  • 69: Parenting Tip: 2 Effective Ways to Respond When Your Child Says Negative Things About Themselves
    Jul 21 2023

    Hello Mama!

    Welcome to Rooted Working Mom the podcast.

    Does it hurt your mama's heart to hear your son or daughter say things like “I’m so dumb!” “I can’t do this.” “I’m so bad at this. I’ll never be good at it.”? No mom wants to hear their child say these hurtful things about themself. It does hurt when your child feels bad about themself. More importantly, it impacts their purpose and God calling on their life.

    This is why in today’s episode I am equipping you with two powerful ways to respond to your child when they engage in negative self-talk. You can add these to your parenting toolbox today.

    I pray they bless you and your family!

    Rooted in God’s love.

    Blessings, Cynthia 💖
