How to Handle Stress with Confidence and Faith

Stress is real. And if you’re a woman, a mom, or anyone with a heartbeat, you’ve probably felt it a lot lately. Some days, it’s the big things—financial struggles, health concerns, uncertainty about the future. Other days, it’s the small things—like realizing your kid used your good kitchen scissors for crafts again or finding that somehow every laundry basket is full right after you just did the laundry.
Life comes at us fast. And as much as I’d love to say that stress magically disappears once we pray about it, the truth is… that’s not how it works. But that doesn’t mean we’re powerless. As a therapist and a Christian woman who wears many hats, I’ve learned that stress isn’t something we just “survive.” It’s something we can learn to handle—with faith, wisdom, and a little bit of strategy.
