In today's episode, I share what I believe are two of the biggest keys to interior peace—especially for moms who feel tired, overwhelmed, or stuck in resistance to their daily lives.

First, I talk about how to have a bad day well: how to recognize what's happening in your body, care for yourself with compassion, and decide what kind of day you actually need. Then I share the second key—learning to see the work and responsibilities of your life as missions given to you by the Lord, which changes everything about how they feel.

In this episode, we talk about:

• What to do when you wake up already having a bad day

• "Bunny slippers days" vs. days where you still have to show up

• How biology, thoughts, and emotions work together

• Why willingness is often closer to peace than happiness

• How clarity about what God is asking you to do creates calm and purpose

At the end of the episode, I also share an important announcement about the future of the podcast and Catholic Mom Calm, including what's coming next and how you can help me reach more moms.

If you want to feel calmer, more grounded, and more aligned with what God is asking of you—this episode is for you.
