Hey sweet friend, welcome back! You all know I have a massive passion and heart for helping others create a safe, healthy, and life-giving environment in our homes, and today’s episode is ALL about that! I am totally honored to be joined by the LOVELY Rachel Van Kluyve, and she is bringing us so much life and wisdom today surrounding this topic. Rachel is a mom-preneuer, a homeschooling mom, and SO passionate about sharing her gift of home décor and organization with the world!

Hey GIRL! In today's replay episode (as I enjoy some much-needed maternity leave and newborn snuggles), I'm talking about some of the top lessons I would have taught my pre-mom self in preparation for what’s to come. In my experience, there’s no greater reality check than becoming a mom, to be completely honest, some days it’s a GIANT slice of humble pie, BUT even on those days, I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

Today I am joined by the lovely Tracy Crutchlow, and we are talking about parenting strategies. You are going to love and appreciate Tracy's expertise and wisdom on all things research and all things motherhood, and how we can blend the two to achieve a happier, healthier, and more enjoyable motherhood. Tracy is an author, a mother, and a blessing to our show today. I hope you absolutely love this episode, momma, and walk away with some new tips and encouragement to continue to THRIVE!

Today's episode is a REPLAY from a very special episode straight out of the BMAB show library! Today I am sharing (again), the birth story of our sweet firstborn, Brody James. This was one of our most listened to episodes and that's exactly why I chose to replay this episode while I take a little time away to prep for, and welcome our second baby boy! Don't worry, momma, we will be back to normal flow very soon, and sharing the birth story of baby boy #2 in a couple of months.

On today's Real #Momtalk episode, Courtney and I are coming at you with three simple BUT beautiful things that are bringing us JOY this spring season! The point of this topic and episode is to emphasize the importance of noticing and appreciating the small things, the little blessings, that surround us. We are bringing you ALL the springtime energy and positivity through our hearts and our message today, I hope you feel it and love it! We are SO happy you are here!

I had the absolute honor to have Alyse Biro on the show today and she has an incredibly beautiful and special message to share with us today! Alyse is a momma to a beautiful daughter, Felicity, and is sharing her story of being a mom to a daughter with Down Syndrome and what this beautiful journey has been like. It hasn't been the easiest road but she has found such beautiful lessons in all of this and is sharing those with us today.

Today's show is a deep dive into emotional intelligence and what this means as a mom. Having healthy emotional intelligence is (essentially) being able to understand your OWN emotions, but also being able to understand the emotions of others. I will tackle this topic with two hats -- my mom hat and my occupational therapist hat so you will get a little bit of both as I unpack this important topic.

Stefanie Gass is a mother of 2 little boys, a wife, and a female entrepreneur, with a passion for helping other moms identify their passion(s) and build a business and platform around that. Too often we are seeing moms in a place of struggle and discontent when we aren’t pouring into our passions, interests, and desires. Stefanie and I will be tackling the topics of productivity, scheduling, batching, and what it means for us (as moms) to chase our goals and God-led dreams!

Today I will be breaking down the topic of budgeting and money-saving tips for the ever-growing grocery bill(s) each month! I have learned the hard way and have spent AND wasted SO much money in the past on groceries, and through these lessons I’ve found a better system and have literally saved my family THOUSANDS of dollars each year. On today’s show I will break down this topic into 9 tips, sharing details and lifestyle applications that will change the way you shop and SAVE each month!

Today’s episode is completely off the cuff – that’s right, no script, just real-life #momtalk, so grab yourself a cup of something warm and JOIN US! Recently Court sent me a message on sabbath, and it could not have come at a better time. My heart NEEDED that reminder and encouragement to continue to work toward more consistency in implementing a realistic sabbath day into my routine, even throughout the busiest of seasons.
