Hey mamas! Welcome to Week 5 of our Summer Rewind Series! As I continue my podcasting sabbatical to practice a pause and batch-record an incredible new season of interviews for you this fall, we are reaching back into the Live Loved Mom vault to pull out the absolute best, most impactful episodes for your summer survival.

Today's Summer Rewind: It is late June, and if you started this summer with grand plans for a pristine, 30-minute family devotional every morning, but the reality has turned into bickering kids and a chaotic schedule—take a deep breath and drop your shoulders.

Your Striving Heart loves to hijack family discipleship. It tells you that if you aren't running a perfect, rigid Bible curriculum in your living room, you are failing your kids spiritually. But God didn't design discipleship to be a high-pressure performance checklist.

Today, we are re-releasing one of our most downloaded episodes ever: Episode 02 on 5 Simple Ways to Teach God's Word to Your Kids This Summer. We are looking at the beautiful, low-pressure blueprint God gave us in Deuteronomy 6:7. Discipleship is meant to happen as you go—in the car, at the breakfast table, and during the ordinary transitions of your day. I am giving you 5 hyper-practical, easy ways to weave faith into your messy summer routine without causing a single power struggle. Drop the spiritual perfectionism, sister, and let's get into it!

Today's Summer Rewind: It is officially mid-June, and if you are anything like the mamas I coach every week, the sensory overload of summer break is starting to peak. The house is loud, the kids are constantly needing snacks, and your physical capacity is hitting a wall.

Hey mamas! As we head into the summer season, I am intentionally stepping back to practice a pause, like I always talk about here on the show. For the next few weeks, I am taking a podcasting sabbatical to rest, prepare some amazing guest interviews for you, and batch-record our upcoming season!

Today's Summer Rewind: We are taking a trip down memory lane all the way back to where it all began! For Week 3 of our series, we are re-releasing our second most downloaded episode of all time.

If you are a newer member of this beautiful community, this episode is your ultimate orientation. We are breaking down what it actually looks like to stop parenting for love, acceptance, and approval, and start parenting from a position of being fully, unalterably loved by God first. If you are exhausted from treating motherhood like an endless performance to be managed, drop your shoulders. It's time to learn how to truly step out of striving and "Live Loved."

Let's get into it!

Are you dreading the transition into summer break? Everywhere we look, social media tells us we need to curate a "magical" summer filled with elaborate crafts, perfectly scheduled beach days, and endless entertainment. But for the mom in the trenches, the sudden loss of the school routine often triggers sensory overload, mom guilt, and a frantic desire to become the ultimate "Cruise Director" of the family.

In Episode 106, I am talking about why the summer transition throws your nervous system into survival mode—and how we can step out of it biblically. We are looking at the wisdom of King Solomon in Ecclesiastes, dismantling the idol of control, and learning how to build a flexible summer rhythm that prioritizes your peace. You don't have to just survive this summer running on empty fumes!

In this episode, we cover:

The "Cruise Director" Syndrome: Why shattered routines trigger your "Striving Heart" and cause you to parent out of panic instead of peace.

The Sovereignty of Seasons: Looking at Ecclesiastes 3:1 and Colossians 1:17 to remember that Jesus holds your family together—not your color-coded summer schedule.

Building a Flexible Summer Rhythm: 3 practical coaching steps to map out your summer, including establishing anchor points, setting holy screen-time guardrails, and practicing "Emotional Triage" with the Spoke Prayer.

Mama, you cannot be the Savior of your home. Take a deep breath, resign as the center of the universe, and let's move Jesus back to the Hub of your family this summer.

It is the absolute best way to help us reach more Christian mamas who are in the trenches right alongside us.

Are you exhausted from trying to protect your kids from a culture that seems entirely against your faith?

In Episode 105, I am tackling the heavy reality of spiritual warfare in the home. We are looking at what the chaos of the world physically does to your nervous system, how your children absorb that biological panic, and how to intentionally step into the calling God has placed on your life as a mother.

You do not have to parent from a place of panic. You fight from a place of guaranteed victory.

In this episode, we cover:

Identifying the Real Enemy: Looking at Ephesians 6 to realize that the culture, the media... there are bigger things at play in the unseen world.

The Biology of Fear: How consuming worldly chaos throws your amygdala into hyper-vigilance, and why your children physically need you to co-regulate with the peace of Christ.

For Such a Time as This: Learning from the story of Esther to stop being a "lukewarm" Christian and boldly shine your light in your living room.

3 Actionable Home Battleground Tools: How to actively put on the Armor of God, cultivate a safe environment for your kids' hardest questions, and set "holy guardrails" around their media access.

Mama, the Lord has given you the immense privilege of raising the next generation of disciples. Take a deep breath, drop your shoulders, and let's get into the Word today.

Picture this: It's 4:30 PM. The baby is crying, the house is a wreck, the noise is too loud, and you find yourself hiding in the pantry just trying to catch your breath. Right on cue, the mom guilt creeps in. You wonder if God is disappointed in you because you can't handle the very children you prayed for. You think a "good Christian mom" wouldn't feel this way.

If you have ever Googled, "What does the Bible say about being an overwhelmed mom?" you are not alone. In this episode, we are looking at the truth of God’s Word—and putting on my RN hat to look at your biology. God is not standing over you with a clipboard, grading your patience. He is standing beside you with an invitation.

In this episode, we cover:

The Biology of Overwhelm: Why sensory overload triggers your "Fight or Flight" response, and why your physical exhaustion is a biological reality, not a sin.

Compassion over Condemnation: Looking at the story of Elijah and Paul's "thorn in the flesh" to see how God meets our severe burnout with sustaining grace.

The Prayer Pause: A practical, real-time tool to help you step out of survival mode, regulate your nervous system, and surrender your heavy burdens to the Lord.

Mama, your physical limits are the exact stage for God's sustaining grace to show up. You don't have to be the Savior of your home; you just have to lean on the Hub.
