Jen of This Time of Mine shares simple and unique ways to make family dinner fun

Episode 1485: Simple and Unique Ways to Make Family Dinner Fun by Jen of This Time of Mine

Jen is a busy mom to four energetic kids and between taking care of them, running the household and trying to keep up with everything else she does and enjoys, she’s often found herself fantasizing about the moment she can finally sit down for the night. But through it all, she’s found that she’s happiest when she’s intentional in her approach. And even though it’s not always easy, she knows when she parents and lives her life on purpose, that’s when she can make the biggest difference for her children.

She founded This Time Of Mine to use as a platform to teach as many parents as will listen. She wants to meet you where you are and help you fall in love with parenting all over again. 

Because she knows how hard it can be. 

She also knows that when we learn to parent and live with intention, we can create more good times than bad. We can help our children WANT to do what’s right. And we can become the role model that walks along beside them.

Rachel Jones of Nourishing Minimalism talks about why moms are overwhelmed and stressed out. This is part 2 of 2.

Episode 1478: [Part 2] Why Moms Are Overwhelmed and Stressed Out by Rachel Jones

Rachel started her journey to minimalism in 2008, struggling with depression and horribly embarrassed by the messy state of her home.

Her goal for pursuing minimalism was to find contentment and joy in spending time with family and being able to focus on Christ. What she found was that minimalism wasn't the answer. But it is a tool to use to help you focus on what's important.

Her mission is to help others turn their home into their own personal oasis.

Having found an immense amount of freedom with minimalism, it's her goal to share the methods of simplifying and the tools that she had to rely on (and still does!) to maintain a home that is easy to take care of and a joyful space to live.
