Grounded Kids Resilient Faith I Christ-Centered Parenting, Biblical Discipleship, Healing After Childhood Trauma
Have you ever asked God, “How am I supposed to raise kids with strong faith when I’m still healing myself?” Do you worry your kids will turn away from God—not because they don’t love Him, but because of the trauma they’ve carried or the pain they never chose? Are you quietly asking if you’re doing enough to help your kids trust God again—while you’re still trying to trust Him too? If you are parenting after trauma—whether it’s your story, your child’s, or generations of brokenness—you are not alone. Welcome to Grounded Kids Resilient Faith, a podcast to help you raise kids who love Jesus deeply, even when life has been hard. I’m Tricia Kelley—Jesus follower, homeschool mom, educator, and once a little girl who wondered where God was in the pain and trauma. But one day Jesus met me, healed me, and rewrote my story with grace. Now, I’m raising my own kids while breaking harmful patterns and trusting God with the messy in-between. This isn’t coming from a polished place—it’s coming from real life, real healing, and a deep belief that God can redeem your story too. Each week, You’ll be equipped with a Christ-centered parenting framework—filled with real-life tools, biblical wisdom you can actually use, and simple discipleship ideas that fit real family life. We talk about faith and fear, healing and hope, and how to lead your kids toward Jesus—even when you’re still learning to trust Him yourself. You don’t need perfect faith to be a Christ-centered parent. You just need a willing heart, a little courage, and the reminder that God can use even the messy middle for His glory. Join a growing community of Christian parents who are choosing to plant deep roots in Christ—and raise kids who rise strong in faith, even after trauma. *Send An Email ~ groundedminds.learning@gmail.com *Connect on Instagram ~ https://www.instagram.com/grounded.kids.resilient.faith/ *Connect on Facebook ~ https://www.facebook.com/GroundedKidsResilientFaith

Are you parenting from a place of peace—or from your past pain?If you have ever felt like you're striving, snapping, or simply surviving, this episode is for you.
We’re digging into the heart of Christian parenting—not the routines, not the rules, but you. You’ll discover 3 shifts that will transform the way you lead your home:
✅ Who you are at the core – your spiritual foundation and how you view God✅ Who you are in action – how your faith is lived out day to day✅ Who you are in the moment – the current condition of your heart, mind, and emotions
Because raising Christ-rooted kids starts with becoming a Christ-rooted parent.
You don’t have to be perfect—just surrendered and willing.
Blessings, ✨Tricia

If we were sitting across from each other with coffee in hand, I’d tell you this…
I never planned to be a mom. My childhood trauma left me questioning everything—especially God’s goodness. I didn’t feel qualified to raise kids in Christ because deep down, I was still carrying pain.
But friend, God never wastes our story.
In this very first episode, I’m sharing how Jesus met me in my brokenness, and how He continues to slowly rebuild my life, my motherhood, and my faith. You’ll hear the real, raw testimony of how I went from parenting from pain—because pain was all I knew to Christ-centered discipleship, even while still healing.
If you're navigating your own past while trying to raise kids rooted in faith, this episode is for you. You are not alone—and you don’t need to be polished to raise resilient, Christ-rooted kids.
Blessings, ✨Tricia
