Just Because I Love You
Just Because I Love You
Amanda McKinney, Megan West, Marla Branyan, Tabitha Farkas
Somewhere in a midwestern town, four sisters are committed to raising their ELEVEN children (and counting) side-by-side, to the glory of their Heavenly Father. They work, they play, they eat, they cry, they teach, and they laugh--together, through good times and bad. They believe community is difficult, full of hurt feelings and self-sacrifice. But, for the sake of the entire family, it's worth it. Come along with us! Amanda+Luke=12 years married, 4 kids Megan+Korey=9 years married, 3 kids Tabitha+Joe=4 years married, 2 kids Marla+Tim=3 years married, 2 kids
Momma's Medication
What's up Karla! Sorry for the delay on this one. If you're new here, we call our listeners Karla and we release a new podcast episode every Wednesday. Marla had some technical issues with her computer, but the wait is over! On this episode we talk about trendy medication for stay at home moms in the 1950s and how today really isn't much different. We give some disclaimers in this episode because we understand that sometimes medications are needed, but we still dig our heels in pretty deep. If you finish this episode feeling kind of "meh" or like we didn't have enough disclaimers or support/understanding/compassion, please listen to two of our earlier episodes (Postpartum Depression - Part 1 & Part 2). In those episodes we're a little more gentle and compassionate. So Karla, before you get your feathers ruffled and type us an angry email please listen to at least one of the aforementioned episodes to get a taste of our compassion on this issue. No matter what, we love you and everything we say in the episode (and always) comes from a place of kindness, love, and truth.  Reminder: We plan on doing a Q&A episode to either close out this season or as our premiere for Season 2 so send us questions to any of the socials below, or email us, and don't forget to like, subscribe, follow, etc.! :)  Email us at - [email protected] Follow us on Instagram - @4sisters1savior Like us on Facebook - Just Because I Love You: a Four Sisters Podcast Join us on MeWe - Four Sisters: Birth and Motherhood Counseling

Sisters in Hate: Weaponizing Motherhood
Hey Karla (or Karl) thanks for listening to the "Just Because I Love You" podcast! If you're new here you might be confused as to why we're calling you Karla, that's just the name we've given our listeners. Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought to yourself, "I'm looking extra white nationalist today?" Probably not, but there are people that will call you a white nationalist simply because you're a cookie making, religious, stay at home mom, who homeschools her kids, and makes posts about her "normal" life. (Or something along those lines.) Below we've cited the article Mandy references on this episode so you can read it for yourself after listening to us discuss it! So grab that tote of clothes you've been meaning to sort through and join us around the table for this episode of the "Just Because I Love You" podcast! Also, if you share this or another episode with your friends please be sure to send them a link because apparently we're very hard to find! Don't forget to follow us on our socials (listed below) and email us if you have any questions! Thanks so much for listening!  Article Referenced: https://www.thecut.com/2020/07/sisters-in-hate-how-white-nationalists-weaponize-motherhood.html Email us at - [email protected] Follow us on Instagram - @4sisters1savior Like us on Facebook - Just Because I Love You: a Four Sisters Podcast Join us on MeWe - Four Sisters: Birth and Motherhood Counseling

Boss Mommy, CEO Mommy, Teacher Mommy, Coach Mommy, Principal Mommy, Swim Teacher Mommy...
Hey Karla, that's what we call our listeners on the "Just Because I Love You" podcast! We have a few male listeners too so hey Karl! On this episode we spend way too much time talking about rain and umbrellas. THEN we talk about what it looks like to be a bossy, nagging momma, and how that makes someone a "good" mom, but does it? Marla and Megan push back with some "Karla" questions, and we clarify that it IS okay to have help, but it depends on your motivation and if you're still trying to "control" the situations and outcomes or not. Grab your favorite mug, fill it with whatever makes sense and join us around the table for this episode of "Just Because I Love You!" Please reach out if you have questions or want clarification on something we've said! Also, be sure to share this episode with someone you think may like it! Be sure to send them a link because apparently we're really hard to find. lol Thanks for listening!  Email us at - [email protected] Follow us on Instagram - @4sisters1savior Like us on Facebook - Just Because I Love You: a Four Sisters podcast Join us on MeWe - Four Sisters: Birth and Motherhood Counseling

Be a Know-it-all!
Hey Karla (that's what we call our awesome listeners on this podcast) thanks for joining us for another "Just Because I Love You Day!" On today's episode Tabby shares her BIG feelings about being called a know-it-all. Spoiler alert: Tabby IS a know-it-all and that's why she is feeling some type of way about it. hehe Grab a chair and join us around the kitchen table as we talk about why being a know-it-all is "better than a "know-nothing." The truth just might be that people are intimidated by confidence and the fact that we DO know things! If you enjoy this episode please share it with someone you love!
