Leadership for Stay-at-Home Moms - Joy, Purpose, & Identity for Christian Stay-at-Home Moms episodes

  • 72 | Who Am I Now? Identity After Becoming a Stay-at-Home Mom

    Hi beautiful!

    In this episode, we’re talking about identity, how you see yourself and why it matters. We’ll unpack where our beliefs come from, how our habits both reveal and shape our identity, and why so many moms feel like they “lose themselves” after becoming stay-at-home moms. Inspired by Atomic Habits and grounded in Biblical truth, we’ll explore how small daily actions become votes for the woman you are becoming.

    Most importantly, we’ll anchor our identity where it belongs: in Christ. When you know who Jesus is, you can finally know who you are in Him, not defined by productivity, seasons, or roles, but by truth. My prayer is that you leave this episode encouraged, equipped, and reminded that your deepest identity is secure, purposeful, and already established in Him.

    Grab your journal, mama, because this one goes deep.

    Happy New Year, mama! Welcome to the first episode of 2026.

    Today, we’re talking all about vision! What it is, why it matters, and how creating a clear vision can bring direction, purpose, and joy to your life at home.

    If you’ve ever felt lost, stuck, or unsure of who you are beyond being a mom and wife, this episode is for you. We’ll explore how your vision is rooted in your God-given gifts, passions, and values, and why you don’t need to see the whole picture to get started, you just need to begin.

    I’m also sharing my heart for building a faith-filled community of SAHMamas who grow, encourage, and walk this journey together, because you were never meant to do it alone.

    If this is what you’ve been praying for, mama - you’re in the right place.

        In this special Christmas Eve episode, Yaritza shares a heartfelt message of encouragement, peace, and hope for every mama listening. As the holiday season comes to a close, we pause to reflect on gratitude, contentment, and the true reason for Christmas, Jesus.

        Whether this season finds you joyful and full, or walking through grief, financial stress, illness, or broken relationships, this episode is a reminder that you are not alone. God is with you. He is our Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace.

        Yaritza opens up about choosing peace over stress this holiday season, the importance of speaking God’s Word out loud, and the power our words carry to bring life, healing, and truth into our homes and hearts. You’ll be encouraged to declare God’s promises, stand firm in faith, and rest in His presence, especially when life feels heavy.

        The episode closes with a beautiful prayer spoken directly over you.

        Merry Christmas, Mama!

      • 67 | 3 Lies SAHMs Need to Let Go of Before the Year Ends

        Beautiful mama, if December has you feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, or running on empty, this episode is for you. Take a deep breath and settle in, because today is all about encouragement, truth, and freedom.

        As we wrap up the year, we’re shining a light on 3 common lies the enemy uses to keep us mamas stuck, exhausted, and discouraged, and replacing them with the powerful truth of God’s Word. You’ll be reminded that you are seen, chosen, deeply loved, and never alone in this season.

        In this episode, we talk about:

        • Why busyness is not a badge of honor and how caring for yourself honors God
        • How to fight anxiety, overwhelm, and negative thought patterns by renewing your mind
        • What it really takes to nurture a strong, God-honoring marriage, and why prayer and communication matter more than comparison
        • Through Scripture, practical encouragement, and heartfelt truth, you’ll be invited to release the weight you’ve been carrying and cast every care on Him =>because He truly cares for you.

          ✨ This is your reminder that:

          • You are doing a fantastic job
          • You don’t have to carry it all
          • God desires you to live free, peaceful, and whole
          • As you listen, ask yourself: Which lie have I been believing—#1, #2, or #3?

            I’d love to hear from you. Send me a DM on Instagram and let me know which one spoke to your heart today.

            Let’s finish this year strong, grounded in truth, and ready to move forward with faith!

            • 65 | When Purpose Feels Hidden: Learning to Seek, Grow, and Follow God

              Ever felt like you’re living on repeat—snacks, naps, laundry, cartoons—and wondering if this is really your new normal? Maybe you’ve even asked God, “Is this all I’m meant to do?” In this episode, we dive deep into the honest, often hidden struggle many stay-at-home moms face: feeling purposeful while raising little ones.

              I share my own journey of becoming a SAHM - how I went from confident and career focused to feeling lost, frustrated, and desperate to understand my purpose. But instead of giving me a perfect answer, God led me step-by-step through growth, learning, serving, and discovering my gifts in unexpected ways.

              Together, we’ll talk about what it really means to seek God in this season, how purpose unfolds through obedience, and why developing yourself matters just as much as caring for your kids.

              If you’ve ever wondered where your purpose went or whether you ever truly had one - this episode will encourage you, challenge you, and remind you that God is writing a bigger story right where you are.

              Because purpose isn’t something we wait for—it’s something God reveals as we seek Him and grow in the place He’s planted us.
