The Tammy Peterson Podcast

What does it look like to serve God faithfully in government while raising a family—and can national revival begin in the workplace? In this episode of the Tammy Peterson Podcast, we explore faith in public life, spiritual heritage in the UK, and the transformative power of motherhood and prayer. I sit down with Kam Flynn, a devoted wife, mother, and civil servant in the UK government with over two decades of experience in policy and efficiency. Kam shares how her journey from apartheid-era South Africa to Westminster leadership has been shaped by her deep Christian faith, her mother’s legacy, and a calling to unify believers through national prayer. We discuss the creation of the UK’s first National Week of Prayer, her work reforming education systems in South Africa, and what it means to listen for God’s voice when making life-altering decisions. Kam’s story is one of courage, clarity, and conviction.

What if the loneliness and overwhelm so many mothers feel today isn’t a personal failing—but a sign that we’ve lost something essential? In this episode, we talk about the importance of community, the quiet strength of daily prayer, and the foundational role of family in a life of meaning. I reflect on how service to others brings more peace than self-focus, why motherhood was never meant to be carried alone, and how we can rebuild the support systems that once made life more livable. My guest is Rocco Loiacono, a Senior Lecturer at Curtin University Law School and a widely respected voice on the rule of law and cultural change. His insights into how modern life isolates us—and what we can do about it—add depth to this personal and spiritual conversation. I’d love to hear what stood out to you.
