The Counter Culture Mom Show with Tina Griffin

Life is hardly a cakewalk, but for Gigi Butler, it’s full of cupcakes. Gigi is the founder of the famed Gigi’s Cupcakes. She is an author, speaker, and vibrant entrepreneur who has proven that it’s never too late to regroup, rebrand, and dream big. “You’re not too old,” she says. God is the ultimate creator, and He designed us to create, continuously! No matter what you do, you can be an example for Him in the “marketplace ministry,” as Gigi calls it. She encourages dreamers and entrepreneurs to read the Word of God daily, think outside the box, and step out in faith! Ignore the haters, stay focused on your goals, and don’t let anyone dull your shine. Be who God designed you to be and ask Him to give you the wisdom to be present and focused within any circumstance you’re currently facing.

TAKEAWAYS

If you have a dream that just won’t stop nagging you, it’s more than likely the Holy Spirit nudging you

Don’t ignore your dreams - don’t hinder your own journey

Reading the Bible is key to getting to know God and being able to hear from Him on what He wants you to do in your life

The more successful you become, the more jealous people will be - expect it, but never let that stop you

Parenting is no easy task, and when it comes to raising children to live out their dreams in connection with God’s vision for their lives, the challenge may seem overwhelming. That’s where Shelia Erwin’s ministry becomes essential. She is the founder and president of Raising Dreamers Ministries, and the author of Raising Up Dreamers: Find and Grow Your Child’s God-Given Talent. With decades of ministry work and mentoring experience, Shelia shares in-depth wisdom about how she raised her two extraordinarily talented sons, Jon and Andrew Erwin.

The book of Titus instructs older women to train and instruct younger women in the church

Many believers quietly assume that suicide, depression, and anxiety represent a spiritual failure, but Christine D’Clario breaks that stigma for good. Christine is a worship leader and the author of Healing in the Desert: Finding Your Voice on the Journey from Brokenness to Freedom. After navigating a life rife with trauma, confusion, and loss, Christine struggled to find God in the midst of the hurricane, even amid her Christian roots. Years of struggling and suffering culminated in a brush with suicide. This warrior shares what she believes to be the moments that led up to that near-catastrophic decision, and how the church was ill-equipped to discuss depression and anxiety. She emphasizes the importance of Luke 10:27, which commands us to love the Lord with all our hearts - the key to a solid Christian life.

TAKEAWAYS

The church generally fails to address mental and emotional health from a pragmatic perspective

Mental health resources have significantly expanded today, however, there are more people needing assistance than ever before

Confession is key - reaching out and asking for help is the first step in the healing journey

The church should address mental health with clarity and Biblical truth and be prepared to offer help to those that need it

Kytia L’amour is an accomplished performer, speaker, and author, but amid her many accolades, she has struggled with something that’s all too familiar for many women: postpartum depression. Kytia grew up in a Christian household and lived in a counter-cultural way as she grew in her faith. Still, she struggled with an identity crisis when she became a mother, jumping suddenly from hustling for acting jobs in the Hollywood Hills to raising babies! Kytia shares her insight about depression, noting that the transition to parenthood can be a devastating blow, because it means they have to die to self. It’s an overnight change, and it can be a massive culture shock. Kytia also explores the themes of depression, Christian community, and Scripture in her book, Postpartum Depression Devotional: Compassionate Devotions for Reflection, Strength, and Prayer.

TAKEAWAYS

Having a baby and caring for a newborn can make mothers feel isolated and alone

Mom guilt and anxiety can hit unexpectedly in the most unpredictable ways

Parenthood often signifies the death of selfish behavior, and this can be an intense adjustment

Look for ways to help people in your community and be a blessing those around you, especially new moms who don’t have family close

What is really at the root of postpartum depression? It’s lies, whispered by the enemy, meant to deceive, despair, diminish, and destroy. Amanda Scarborough was deep in this damaging and false reality when the Lord ripped off the veil of deceit, showing her that He was the only one who could truly help her heal from the crushing weight of anxiety and depression. Amanda is a small business owner and the author of A Beautiful War: Finding Hope in the Darkest Moments. She discusses her healing journey after suffering from postpartum depression and how God redeemed her pain and turned it into a testimony that has encouraged and guided other women suffering a similar battle. Amanda shares how women can get help if they are hurting and how we can help new moms who are in despair.

TAKEAWAYS

Do not allow the enemy to lie to you and tell you that you are alone in the battle
