Carrying Dreams: A Journey of Love, Family, and Surrogacy | Ep. 028

Do you feel God calling you to something big this season? On today’s episode of Juggling Life, Finding Balance, Vivian is joined by Tiffany Jo Baker, whose story of calling and obedience will inspire you to live with big faith. Tiffany Jo is a certified relationship communication coach who has worked in family ministry for over 24 years. After getting pregnant with her second child, Tiffany Jo felt the Lord nudging her to become a surrogate when she witnessed the pain of a friend struggling with infertility. She has since been a surrogate mom for three different families, carrying and giving birth to five babies. Tiffany Jo says that it is her faith in God and in His children that inspired her to serve other families so sacrificially, as she believes in the importance of being co-laborers in God’s plans.

 

Vivian and Tiffany Jo discuss Tiffany Jo’’s surrogacy journey, the inspiration for her devotional, Soul-Care for Go-Getters, and her work in marriage coaching and strengthening. Throughout it all, Tiffany Jo is a shining example of a woman on mission for the Lord, who listens to His calling and serves His people joyfully using the gifts she’s been given. When asked about how she stays balanced, Tiffany Jo offers listeners the following advice: take an intentional Sabbath once a week where you can reset and celebrate what the Lord has done, and ask Him every so often, “what is my assignment for this season?” When we remain close to God’s plans, we’ll not only see fruit, but we’ll experience fulfillment.
