4.8 out of 5 stars from 2.3k ratings
  • Relatable and Entertaining

    I enjoy the content and personalities of the hosts — and especially knowing it is clean, well-organized, relevant, and generally coming from a biblical worldview. I think it lacks spiritual depth (which the listenership would be encouraged by), but it is very relatable and entertaining to listen to!

  • Powerful

    Making a Mother is the kind of podcast that lingers with you long after the episode ends. Each story is tenderly told, honoring the complexity, beauty, and heartbreak of the journey to motherhood. As a listener, I felt invited into sacred ground—these aren’t just stories, they’re portraits of courage, resilience, and deep love. A must-listen for anyone who believes in the power of story to change us.

    Hesitated to listen because I was apprehensive on the content. I was blown away by the stories and how well they were done; the entire series was excellent. These stories were captivating, the editing and narration were top tier. Overall exceeded any expectations I had.
