- Why Motherhood is a Vocation
In light of Mother’s Day being yesterday, let’s chat about what motherhood means. I want to address what you are saying, “yes” to.
Motherhood is saying yes to the challenge of becoming a mother, parenting a child, and taking on the responsibility of raising the future generation. This is a challenge we are taking on almost entirely ourselves when we become the full-time SAHM. What does it mean to consider motherhood as a vocation? Why is it important to remember this portion of our identity falls under this role? This short and sweet episode will leave you confident, empowered, and ready to tackle the week.

16 min - “The Good Enough Mom” with Christy ThomasLadies! I’m honored and elated to introduce you to fellow SAHM and podcaster, Christy Thomas. Christy is the host and founder of the podcast “Keep Calm, Mother On.” She started the podcast in 2018 as a way to share encouragement and easy-to-implement ideas for moms with kids ages 5 to 15. Christy is a military spouse, mom of 3, homeschooler, and teacher by trade who found her passion in supporting other women in their journey through motherhood.
As a family who has moved 11 times, she is an advocate for building community through small brave acts. We had an insightful and inspirational conversation about the importance of building community and tips on how to do so.
Christy shares her insight on how to find joy and moments of pause in the midst of motherhood, the importance of play in not only our children’s lives but also our own, and her theory on choosing people over productivity. Yes, at times, the dishes can absolutely wait. Christy shares her thoughts on the “hot-mess mom” culture and what balancing grace in motherhood looks like.
I hope you find calm, inspiration, and grace in this episode. As Christy says, “You are the right mom for your kids.”

As little girls, we want to be rescued. We want to be the damsel in distress, the princess twirling in her pretty dress. Who do we picture rescuing us? The strong, confident, capable, masculine man!
Modern (extreme) feminism has come along to say we no longer need a man. They tell us, we are 100% equal and that “anything they can do, I can do better.” The honest truth is, we can’t. Now, don’t get me wrong. I absolutely 1,000% consider myself a feminist! I believe in equal opportunity and freedom of choice. I take so much pride in being able to CHOOSE my role as a SAHM. However, I also find pride in having found a partner who helps support me in this role which we’ve chosen is best for our family. He makes my life better, easier in some ways, and more joyful.
My goal for this episode is to debunk the idea that needing a man is weak. I want to show the perspective of a strong woman who is proud to rely on a strong man. There is so much value in a relationship where each partner can lean into their masculine and feminine roles. As a society, these partnerships need to be celebrated, not shunned. Men enrich our lives, provide support in different ways, and, let’s be honest…help us open that pickle jar when we can’t quite get it ourselves.

36 min - How To Stop Unloading On Your Spouse When He Gets Home
Do you find yourself counting down the minutes when your spouse will get home, eager for him to help with the children, tell him about your day, release your emotional baggage, or just have someone to talk to? There is no shame here because I was that person!!! It started to create some real problems for us. I call this act of “dumping” your day on your spouse, the Daily Dish.
In this episode, I discuss four ways to help you transition more smoothly when your spouse comes home and lessen or avoid problems that can arise with the Daily Dish. Please share this episode with another mama friend if you find this episode helpful.

35 min - Everyday Mom Guest: Kayla Zenner
From math teacher to SAHM who found her joy through pursuing her interests. My chat with this month’s everyday mom guest, Kayla Zenner, is packed full of mom-isms, discussions around SAHM life, the trials and tribulations we all go through in this role, and the importance of finding those moments of true self-care. Kayla found little ways to find joy for herself and share that joy with others through playdough kits, baking, mid-sized fashion tips, and makeup tutorials to help moms feel their very best.
It wouldn’t be a true mom chat if we didn’t talk about the tough and challenging moments we all go through at different times. Kayla shares with us her lowest low, how she overcame that time and later prepared to avoid a similar moment in the future.

31 min - How to Live SLIGHTLY Greener with Environmental Toxins Expert Tonya Harris
The awareness of the toxins in our food, cleaning products, clothes, household items, and beauty products is growing, and let me first say thank goodness to the experts who are bringing these conversations to the table. But, if you’re a busy mom like me, we take all of this information and immediately get overwhelmed with not knowing where to start. I tend to take information like this, combine it with my mama bear love and protective instincts for my family, and go into overhaul mode, throwing everything out in sheer panic, which exhausts me and causes burnout. Fear-driven action at its finest! Does anyone else do the same? Well, I’m here to tell you, there IS hope and a MUCH better way.
Drum roll, please! I bring you, Tonya Harris! Tonya is an award-winning environmental toxin expert and founder of Slightly Greener. She “offers busy women simple tips to reduce toxins without turning their family’s lifestyle upside-down.” Sign me up for THAT! Tonya has been featured in multiple online and print publications such as Parents, Reader’s Digest, MindBodyGreen, Insider, and Martha Stewart Living. Most recently, she was featured in Better Homes and Gardens Magazine with a beautiful article titled, “The Nose Knows.” She has also appeared on TV shows across the country, such as Great Day Washington, CBS New York, CBS Los Angeles, and The Dr. Oz Show, for her expertise in environmental toxins, holistic nutrition, and how toxins affect children. Tonya’s book, The Slightly Greener Method: Detoxifying Your Home is Faster, Easier, & Less Expensive Than You Think, is a must-have resource for mamas who want to clean up their environment without the stress, fear, frustration, and overwhelm that comes from an often seemingly daunting task.
Tonya and I had a beautiful conversation discussing how she came to develop this method, where she gained her knowledge, and ways she has approached living greener incorrectly in the past. She gives us starting points, debunks my incorrect theories, and helps us take the first step forward in the right direction without fear. You’ll want to grab a pen and paper for this one, ladies.
For more information and an incredible resource to have on hand, I highly recommend Tonya’s book, which can be found anywhere books are sold.

1 hr - What is the Mission of the SAHM?
There is an abundance of scenarios as to how women become SAHMs. In this episode, I want to talk about 2 of those scenarios.
- You chose this role
- You had this role chosen for you
The importance of this conversation lies in the fact that regardless of HOW or WHY you now call yourself a full-time mom, SAHM, or homemaker, the mission stays the same. This community honors and accepts mothers, regardless of how they came to be in these roles. Mom: In-Process aims to build value and self-worth within each of us in order to best raise our children.
