If you struggled with anxiety that you didn't have enough Pinterest worthy crafts or Instagram worthy photos to be considered a mom who makes good memories, I encourage you to stop the pinning and slapping on the photo filters and listen to my interview with Jessica Smartt. Jessica is more than a homeschooling mom and blogger. She's a woman who wanted to find the purpose and practicality in making memories with her family.

Here's a few things we chat about before discussing her book:

 Enneagram vs. Meyer's Briggs  Crazy things we do in college  Jessica's personal growth after a broken engagement

Jessica is the author of a new book, Memory Making Mom, where she helps us change our perspective of what it looks like to create family memories.

Jessica shares that it was a traumatic event in their family's life as well as her feelings of missing out on making family traditions led her to be more intentional in creating traditions around her family values. Be challenged to new routines and discover that memory making can happen at any time or any season: from the day to day and even times of busyness, rest, or grief.
