In this episode of Clear & On Purpose, Christina gets candid about one of the most common struggles she hears from moms: the guilt of taking time for yourself. Whether you’re craving a night away, a solo workout, or even just 15 minutes of quiet, it’s easy to slip into stories that say you shouldn’t need anything outside of motherhood.

But what if those stories aren’t actually yours?
 And what if honoring your needs is one of the greatest gifts you can give your kids?

Christina pulls back the curtain on the deeper beliefs fueling mom guilt — the pressure to be the “preferred parent,” the idea that you’re the only one who knows what your kids need, and the fear that letting others help will somehow make you less of a mother. She also shares her own experience raising two very attached “Velcro babies” and how expanding her kids’ support system changed everything for her energy, her marriage, and her children’s emotional resilience.

This episode will help you:

• Understand the real reason mom guilt shows up
• Stop gatekeeping your children’s relationships with other trusted adults
• Build confidence in your partner and support system
• Let your kids learn regulation, comfort, and connection from more than one person
• Reclaim your own needs, identity, and time without drowning in guilt
• Model the values you actually want your kids to grow up with — autonomy, self-trust, and emotional flexibility

If you’ve been telling yourself “it’s just easier if I do it,” this conversation is your permission slip to rethink that. You’re not meant to carry it all. And you’re allowed to have a life that nourishes you, too.

When kids push back, argue, or seem “too much,” it’s easy for parents to slip into power struggles. But what if those challenging moments are actually clues about who your child is meant to be?

In this powerful conversation, Christina welcomes Angie Grant, a Generational Healing Specialist and Human Design coach, back to Clear & On Purpose. Together they explore how understanding your child’s unique energetic blueprint can completely transform the way you parent, connect, and communicate.

You’ll learn:

• How Human Design helps you see beneath behaviors to your child’s natural strengths and needs.
• Why traditional parenting advice can unintentionally suppress your child’s authentic energy.
• How to reframe “stubbornness” and “defiance” as signs of independence, drive, and leadership.
• The four Mistaken Motivations behind behavior—and how to respond with connection instead of control.
• Practical examples of shifting from “How do I make them listen?” to “How can I help them feel safe and empowered?”

Angie shares her journey from behavior management to energetic understanding, blending Human Design, mindset coaching, and emotional awareness to help parents raise confident, self-aware kids. Christina offers her own reflections as a mom, emphasizing how perspective, compassion, and self-regulation change the dynamic in every relationship.

If you’ve ever wondered why strategies and scripts don’t always work—or you’re craving more peace, confidence, and connection in your home—this episode will give you a fresh lens and tangible tools to parent with purpose.

As we move into the final stretch of the year, it’s the perfect time to slow down and savor what’s already good in your life. In this episode of Clear & On Purpose, Christina explores the powerful science and soul of gratitude — how this simple practice can boost your mood, reduce stress, and create deeper connection in your relationships.

You’ll learn why gratitude isn’t just another fluffy self-help trend — it’s a neuroscience-backed practice that literally changes your brain chemistry, increases dopamine and serotonin, and helps you feel more grounded, peaceful, and present in your everyday life.

Ever feel like you’re constantly falling short of the invisible “shoulds” in your life? From how clean your house should be to how often you should work out — it’s exhausting trying to keep up with everyone else’s expectations.
In this episode of Clear & On Purpose, Christina dives deep into the concept of personal standards — what they are, why they matter, and how they can help you live more intentionally and authentically.

When you create and live by your standards (not society’s or anyone else’s), you eliminate decision fatigue, build self-trust, and begin to act like the person you truly want to be.

Christina shares how she’s reframed personal standards in her own life — from redefining what “a clean house” means to setting realistic movement goals — and walks you through a process to create your own aligned standards in every area of life.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have a framework to:
 ✨ Identify the areas of your life that feel out of alignment
 ✨ Replace “shoulds” with standards that actually support your values
 ✨ Create habits and routines that feel natural, not forced
 ✨ Regain confidence, energy, and ease by living as your intentional self

If you’re ready to stop striving for perfection and start living by your own rules, this episode is your roadmap.

This month’s Behind the Scenes episode with K Margaret pulls back the curtain on what we’re really working through — in life, business, and personal growth. We talk candidly about the challenges of practicing what we preach, finding balance during seasonal shifts, and what it really looks like to show up with presence instead of perfection. It’s raw, unfiltered, and a reminder that growth isn’t just something we talk about — it’s something we live.

In this episode of Clear & On Purpose, Christina sits down with Kelly Edwards, homeschooling mama and business owner, to explore a more intentional and child-led approach to learning. Kelly shares her journey from 'accidental homeschooler' to creating a framework called the 90-Minute School Day, designed to help parents deschool themselves, support their children’s learning, and build confidence in their parenting.

We discuss:

Kelly Edwards The 90-Minute School Day

Kelly Edwards is the founder of The 90-Minute School Day, a framework that helps parents transition from a school-based mindset to natural learning. She helps families create a thriving homeschool by prioritizing felt-safety, connection, self-awareness, while honoring biological rhythms and neurodivergence. Through her Day in the Life community, Guide Training program, and The 90-Minute School Day podcast, Kelly supports parents in unlearning school-based conditioning, trusting natural learning, and redefining success by focusing on strengths, not setbacks. A wife and long-time homeschooling parent of three girls, she is also a parent coach, educator, and trauma-informed foster care advocate. Learn more at 90minuteschoolday.com.
