      <description><![CDATA[<p>You’re worried about what your coworkers think. Your parents. That random person online.</p><p>But here’s the truth: <strong>none of them are responsible for your life.</strong></p><p>They don’t pay your bills. They don’t raise your kids. They don’t answer to God for your choices—you do.</p><p>So why are you letting their opinions keep you stuck?</p><p>In this episode, we’re getting honest about:</p><ul><li>The fear of being judged for changing your habits</li><li>Saying no when everyone else is saying yes</li><li>Choosing growth—even when it makes you look “different”</li><li>Why isolation seasons are often where God does His deepest work</li><li>How to stop people-pleasing and start walking in obedience</li></ul><p>If you’ve been holding back on becoming the woman God is calling you to be because you’re afraid of what others might think… this is your wake-up call.</p><p>Because at the end of the day, you’re not living for them—you’re living for Him.</p><p><strong>Galatians 1:10 (NLT):</strong> “Obviously, I’m not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ’s servant.”</p><p>We’ll also talk about how to actually <strong>apply this in your real life</strong>—finding pockets of time in your day, building better habits, and staying consistent even when it feels lonely.</p><p><strong>Ready to stop feeling stuck and finally follow through?</strong></p><p>If you’re tired of starting and stopping, lacking self-control, and feeling mentally cluttered… it’s time to get real support.</p><p>I offer <strong>1:1 coaching</strong> to help you:</p><ul><li>Get clear on what’s actually keeping you stuck</li><li>Build simple, realistic systems that work for your life</li><li>Step into your <strong>organized, disciplined mom era</strong></li></ul><p>Spots are limited for this season. → Book your session through the link: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://victoria-gharis.kit.com/products/1-on-1-coaching-session">https://victoria-gharis.kit.com/products/1-on-1-coaching-session</a></p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>If you feel stuck in cycles of binge eating, doom scrolling, impulsive spending, or just lacking self-control—this episode is your wake-up call.</p><p>In this first Tough Love Tuesday, we’re getting real about why you keep ending up in the same place… and how to finally break the patterns.</p><p>Here’s the truth: It’s not that you don’t have discipline. It’s that your “why” isn’t strong enough yet.</p><p>In this episode, I’m introducing you to a powerful mindset shift called the anti-vision—getting crystal clear on the life you <em>don’t</em> want so you can finally start taking action toward the life God is calling you to live.</p><p>I’m also sharing my personal journey with food struggles, fitness, and becoming a healthier, more intentional mom—plus practical, no-excuses strategies to help you step up in these 3 key areas:</p><ul><li><strong>Health &amp; fitness habits</strong> (stop the cycle of starting and quitting)</li><li><strong>Finances &amp; spending discipline</strong> (break the “broke mindset” for good)</li><li><strong>Parenting &amp; presence</strong> (be the mom your kids actually need)</li></ul><p>This episode will challenge you, but it will also equip you.</p><p>Because if nothing changes… nothing changes.</p><p>And one year from now? You’ll either be in the same place—or living proof that you decided to do things differently.</p><p></p><p><strong>What You’ll Learn:</strong></p><ul><li>Why self-control isn’t your real problem</li><li>How to use the <strong>anti-vision strategy</strong> to create urgency and motivation</li><li>The habits that keep you stuck (and how to cut them off)</li><li>Simple, practical ways to improve your health, money, and parenting</li><li>How to partner with God in your everyday discipline</li></ul><p>If you’re ready to stop making excuses and actually follow through, my <strong>Spring 1:1 Coaching Offer</strong> is open now through June.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Can being a <strong>single mom actually prepare you for a healthy, God-honoring marriage?</strong></p><p>In this episode, I share my personal testimony of how <strong>God used my years as a single mother to shape my heart, heal past wounds, and prepare me to become a wife.</strong> If you’ve ever believed the lies that single moms are “broken,” “less valuable,” or “too much baggage,” this conversation will challenge those beliefs with <strong>biblical truth and encouragement.</strong></p><p>The world often tells single mothers that their chances of love, marriage, and a stable future are limited. But God’s plan is bigger than the labels people place on you.</p><p>During my season of single motherhood, God did deep work in my life. He healed my heart from past relationships, taught me self-control, opened unexpected opportunities in my career, corrected my perspective about men, and softened my heart so I could walk in peace and femininity.</p><p>In this episode, I share <strong>5 powerful ways God prepared me for marriage while I was a single mom</strong>, including:</p><p>• Healing from heartbreak, insecurity, and past relationship wounds • Learning biblical self-control and letting go of lust and unhealthy patterns • How God opened doors for career opportunities and provision • Letting God transform negative beliefs about men and relationships • Developing a gentle and peaceful spirit rooted in faith</p><p>If you are a <strong>Christian single mom</strong>, waiting on God, healing from a breakup, divorce, or difficult relationship, this episode will remind you that <strong>your season is not wasted.</strong> God can use the hardest years of your life to shape you into the woman He created you to be.</p><p>Marriage didn’t magically solve every problem in my life, but the work God did in my heart during my single-mom years laid the foundation for a healthy marriage today.</p><p>If you’re in a season of waiting, trust that <strong>God is still writing your story.</strong></p><p><strong>Next Steps (Don’t Stay Stuck):</strong></p><p>💛 Join the FREE community + enter to win a free 1:1 coaching session every month: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.patreon.com/c/VictoriaGharis">https://www.patreon.com/c/VictoriaGharis</a></p><p>💛 Exclusive coaching for moms, married or single.

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[17. Christian Single Mom Burnout: Why You’re Mentally and Emotionally Exhausted]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, I share my personal story of raising my daughter while finishing college and navigating healing, stress, and the overwhelming mental load that so many single moms carry. I open up about what it felt like to juggle responsibilities, faith, exhaustion, and emotional wounds—and how prayer became the one steady anchor in every chaotic season.</p><p>I break down why so many Christian single moms feel mentally and emotionally exhausted, including doing too much without clarity, overcommitting in busy seasons, and constantly consuming information through social media. I explain how comparison, screen time, and decision overload quietly drain your energy and leave you feeling scattered and behind.</p><p>Throughout the episode, I offer practical, faith-based steps to reduce overwhelm, including learning to say no in the right season, asking God for strength instead of relying on your own, and freeing up mental space by writing things down instead of carrying everything in your head. I share biblical encouragement from 2 Corinthians 12:9 and James 1:5 to remind you that God’s grace and wisdom are available when you feel weak.</p><p>If you’re a working Christian single mom who feels burned out, overloaded, and tired of surviving, this episode will help you understand why you’re exhausted—and how to start moving toward clarity, peace, and a calmer rhythm in your home.</p><p><strong>Next Steps (Don’t Stay Stuck):</strong></p><p>💛 Join the FREE community + enter to win a free 1:1 coaching session every month: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.patreon.com/c/VictoriaGharis">https://www.patreon.com/c/VictoriaGharis</a></p><p>💛 Exclusive coaching for moms, married or single.
