Join me, Demetria, as I welcome you to the newly rebranded Christian Moms Cafe. After 14 years of the Christian Homeschool Moms Podcast, I’m stepping into a new season—empty nest, midlife transitions, and a space to gather, encourage, and support one another through all stages of motherhood and life. In this episode, we reflect on the journey so far, share what’s next, and invite you into a community where moms of faith can connect, pray, and grow together.
