Sean has officially moved, so naturally we have plenty to catch up on! In this episode, we’re talking about momming through illness, summertime sickness, toxic vs. non-toxic household products, bleach and Norwex, and the surprisingly controversial topic of peanut butter storage.

We also get into our latest crazy mom moments, bidets, diaper sprayers, potty training, landfills, and the fact that kids are probably better off without tons of toys. Plus, our Christmas shopping strategies, things we want to do before summer ends and Sean’s very strong feelings about mayo.

A little practical, a little ridiculous, and a whole lot of mom life. Come hang out with us!

Welcome back to Part Two of our NFP series!

We dive deeper into the meaning of SPICE and discuss how husbands can be more involved in the NFP process. Hannah explains exactly what the Creighton Model is and how NFP can also be a valuable tool for understanding and monitoring your health.

We also talk about hyperfertility, judging families based on their size, navigating unhelpful comments about family size, how NFP can safeguard and strengthen love within marriage, and the importance of rightly ordering our sexual desires.

We hope you enjoy this conversation!

In this episode, we’re joined by our friend Hannah, a certified fertility instructor who teaches the Creighton Model of Natural Family Planning (NFP). Together, we dive into some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding NFP, what inspired Hannah to become an instructor, and how NFP differs from hormonal birth control.

We also discuss why NFP is so much more than family planning, exploring topics like discernment, intentional intimacy, the meaning of SPICE, and why it’s impossible to approach NFP with a contraceptive mentality while remaining faithful to its purpose. Hannah shares practical wisdom on the importance of leaning on other couples who are striving to live out their marriages faithfully and we talk about how every family is called to prayerfully discern God’s plan for the size and spacing of their children.

Whether you’re brand new to NFP, curious about the Creighton Model, or looking to deepen your understanding of marriage and fertility, we hope this conversation encourages and equips you. Enjoy!

We’re back with Part 2 of our spouse series! In this episode, we’re diving into our own experiences navigating marriage through different seasons.

As always, it’s an honest, relatable conversation filled with practical takeaways, personal stories and a few laughs along the way. We hope you enjoy it!

We’re catching up on all things life—from our 4th of July festivities and the wild Minnesota storms to making time to date your spouse in the midst of busy family life. We chat about finding kid-free time, learning and speaking your spouse’s love language, navigating constructive criticism in marriage and plenty of other honest, relatable tangents along the way.

In this episode, we share our go-to coping strategies for when our spouses are away. From paper plates (or not) and keeping up with laundry (or not), to our top advice for surviving solo parenting, we cover the little things that help make life a bit more manageable.

We also chat about screen time, giving ourselves grace, asking for help when we need it and letting go of unrealistic expectations. As always, there are plenty of laughs, a few rabbit trails, and lots of honest conversation along the way.

We’re back after a hectic May-cember! ☀️

Join us as we catch up on life after the whirlwind of end-of-school-year chaos. In this episode, we chat about navigating friendships in motherhood, the comparison trap, food truck adventures, the challenge of pouring from an empty cup and the everyday joys and struggles that come with raising a family.

As always, expect honest conversation, plenty of laughs and encouragement for moms who are in the thick of it right alongside us.

Sean is back from Norway! 🇳🇴

In this episode, we’re catching up on some of the highlights from her trip and diving into all sorts of real-life conversations — from goat milk, venison, and chickens to breastfeeding journeys and struggles like mastitis and thrush. We also chat about whether or not Caity is actually going to have 19 kids 🤪 and laugh over all the relatable little things along the way. A cozy, honest and funny episode you can feel right at home in.

In this episode, we talk about the beauty and challenge of affirming spirited kids, the routines that ground us at the end of long days and the simple comforts (like a good cup of coffee). We also share real and raw birth moments, the small acts of love from our spouses that don’t go unnoticed and reflect on the highs and lows of the week. Just two people sharing the real stuff.

We’re back, opening up about the real side of postpartum—baby blues, body changes, anxiety and everything in between.

We felt a deep pull to speak honestly about what so many women experience, including in our own lives and this conversation reflects that. This episode is a little longer than usual because we really wanted to take the time to touch on some of these real, important things without rushing through them.
