S5EP5: Parenting with a Purpose: How to Balance a Career Growth and Family Wellbeing with Gissel Tapper

Join us for an inspiring conversation with Gissel Tapper, a mom of two daughters ages 24 and 13, who shares her journey of taking bold leaps of faith while keeping her children's wellbeing at heart. From moving across continents to navigating different stages of motherhood, Gissel opens up about how intentionality and faith have guided her parenting decisions. Her story reminds us that we don't need to have everything figured out to make brave choices, and that sometimes our children are more resilient than we imagine.

Key Takeaways:

  • The power of intentional parenting - in our words, actions, and the examples we set

  • Understanding and responding to each child's unique love language and needs

  • Building a strong parenting partnership through consistent communication

  • Finding strength in faith and trusting your journey, even when you can't see the whole path

  • The importance of modeling confidence and stability during major life transitions

  • Creating meaningful connections with our children across different ages and stages

  • Balancing work and motherhood with grace and purpose
