Hi, friend!

Do you feel like you are constantly hustling, always thinking about the next thing that needs to get done, errand you have to run, or item you need to cross off your daily to do list?!

In today’s episode, I’m talking to all my mom friends that feel like you can NEVER get your brain to just shut off. Maybe you know you want to REST more and slow down, be fully present, but honestly you don’t even know HOW to rest.

I’m going to break down 10 simple ways to embrace REST before the summer ends…tiny ways to fully rest even as a busy mom of littles, unplug and unwind to ultimately serve your family better by giving them the BEST version of yourself. Some of these you probably haven’t thought of before and prioritizing rest in your daily rhythms is so much simpler than we make it out to be! I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!

Hugs!

Hi, friend!

I don’t know about you, but my schedule has been ALL OVER THE PLACE the last few weeks with 4th of July plans, family in from out of town, VBS, family vacation, all the things. And it has me feeling a little crazy if I’m being honest.

In today’s episode, we’re diving into HOW to practically get yourself back on schedule when your routines get completely out of whack from all the summer events and plans you’re enjoying. We all want to embrace summer and live up all the fun summer things, but then how to bring it back in quickly after those crazy weeks. How to reset and get back to a good place with your routines and rhythms ASAP after crazier weeks of summer plans so that you don’t spend a month just trying to get back to normal after your summer vacation. I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!

Hugs!

Hi, friend!

In today’s episode, I’m sharing 16 fun mid-summer activities to do with your kids without breaking the budget. These can really apply for all ages (tweaked to your kids’ specific ages and interests), but my kids are currently toddler and preschool age so I would say specifically mamas with kiddos ages 0-6, all of this will definitely apply for you!

I don’t know about you, but this summer is FLYING and as moms of littles, we want to find cheap, simple ways to embrace summer and create core memories with our toddlers and preschoolers-without making it more complicated than it needs to be! I thought this would be a fun way to crowdsource some fun summer activities to break up the mundane, cross a few things off the summer bucket list in a SIMPLE, low stress way, and just create some core summer memories with our kiddos especially now that we’re more than halfway through the summer. I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!

Hugs!

Hi, friend!

I have a really fun BONUS episode for you today! In today’s episode, I’m giving you a behind the scenes look at what the Lord is teaching me about content in the season that I’m in. As Christian mamas that want our lives to be focused on Christ and glorifying Him, we all want to be more content in our day to day lives and find joy in everything we’ve been given. But, I don’t know about you, but that can be a LOT easier said than done.

I’m sharing some vulnerable stories on how I’ve navigated the majority of my life in this area, what I wish I learned earlier, and what it looks like to be content as a stay at home mom who has big dreams and goals. The Lord has taught me some surprising lessons in my life recently about contentment and finding joy in the season that we’re currently in, instead of just looking ahead to the next constantly.

I want to share some of these lessons as I’m learning them just like I would sitting down with a friend catching up on what the Lord is doing in our lives so that is the feel of this episode. It’s a raw and real kind of episode and I’m praying it is an encouragement to you! Enjoy!

Hugs!

Hi, friend!

In today’s episode, we’re going to get into the nitty gritty of independent play for kids. We all want more time to get things done around the house, maybe you’re in a season that you need to sneak in a few minutes of work when your toddlers are still awake, or maybe you just want to drink your coffee and read your Bible in peace for a few minutes.

Independent play is something that is talked about a lot and I feel like pretty much ALL moms want their kids to have this skill, especially in today’s society of constant distraction and screens and overstimulation. I’m going to teach you 3 practical habit shifts that you can start applying today to help your kids have longer stretches of independent play time daily. This is going to be a juicy one, friends, let’s get into it! I pray this episode is a blessing for you! Enjoy!

Hugs!

Hi, friend!

In today’s episode, I’m sharing with you my 4 step system that helps me get more done as a busy mom trying to manage a lot of different areas of life (my kids, marriage, homesteading and gardening in full swing this time of year, my business, being involved in community, etc.). This system that I use daily to prioritize what needs to get done each day and then actually DO IT has vastly improved my productivity, helped manage my expectations for each day AND how much I’m able to practically accomplish each day.

Probably the top area we all feel like we’re lacking in as moms, especially moms of littles that require a lot of daily care and attention, is time. The hard truth is we all have the same amount of time in a day. It’s up to us how we prioritize and spend that time. And this 4 step system I’m going to share with you today for planning my days and prioritizing what needs to be done each day literally saves me 2 hours PER DAY. That’s 14 hours A WEEK, friends. That’s a part time job. This is life changing. Make sure you have something to take notes on, a pencil and pen or the notes app of your phone because you’re going to want to take notes to start implementing this asap. I pray this episode is a blessing for you! Enjoy!

Hugs!

Hi, friend!

Are you struggling to balance growing a business (or dreaming of starting one!) in the mom cracks of your day? Do you feel FRUSTRATED for never having as much time as you’d like in this season so it feels like you have to pick and choose between being a good mom or being a good business owner?

We GET IT. In today’s episode, this is the second half of my interview with Jordan Jones and we are talking all about balancing work and motherhood. How to fit work time into the very limited time you have as a mom, how to figure out what your top priorities are in business, and even some honest truths on what we are laying down in business for the sake of balance.

We’re also chatting about simplifying daily rhythms and systems in our personal life to help us actually achieve our goals in the business side of our life as well. And some vulnerable stories on over-committing, surrendering our businesses to the Lord, and choosing how we show up and fill our days in this season.

There is so much practical encouragement and tips from 2 moms growing businesses in the cracks of our day, while also balancing full time SAHM life. I pray this episode is a blessing for you! Enjoy!

Hugs!

Hi, friend!

Do you REALLY want to be reading your Bible every day but find yourself in a season where honestly, you’re just not? This episode is for you. If you’re a new mom, seasoned mom, mom of many, or mom of one, you probably can resonate that it is hard to find your balance prioritizing your faith, marriage, kids, work, home, all the major areas of your life and sometimes, you find yourself in a season where your biggest priority simply isn’t being reflected in your daily habits.

In today’s episode, we are diving into all things quiet time routines with my friend Jordan Jones from the Work and Worship podcast. How to find a quiet time routine that works for you in the season you’re in, how to finally be consistent with it, and how to prioritize your relationship with the Lord even in this season of motherhood with little kids, little sleep, and maybe a little less patience when your quiet time (or maybe not so quiet time) doesn’t go as seamlessly as your quiet time routine prior to kids.

We are also chatting about how Jordan and her husband started Daily Kairos and the journey the Lord led them on to creating the prayer journal that has had such an impact on the prayer life of so many!

I know you guys are going to get so much wisdom, encouragement, and practical tips for prioritizing your relationship with the Lord as a busy mom and finding a quiet time routine that you can actually stick to. I pray this episode is a blessing for you! Enjoy!

Hugs!
