Does adding more structure to your days feel like it would just add more stress? Maybe you love the idea of routines but worry that scheduling everything will leave you feeling stuck or overwhelmed. As a mom, some days just don’t go as planned, and the idea of sticking to a set schedule can feel impossible. But what if I told you that having structure actually gives you more freedom?

In today’s episode, inspired by a listener’s question, I’m sharing how to create flexible structure in your days so you can keep your home and life running smoothly—without feeling tied down to a strict schedule.

I pray this episode encourages you.

Hugs!

In today’s Memos in the Margins episode, I’m sharing a simple habit I DON’T do daily—but really need to—and why I’m finally making it a priority (with a little help from you for accountability!). Plus, a late-night Walmart run that reminded me how small routines can make a big difference in mom life.

I’m also talking about a simple yet powerful tool I turn to whenever my mind starts spiraling with all the endless to-dos. This strategy helps me reset, refocus, and avoid getting stuck in overwhelm, which I know so many of us struggle with. If you’ve ever felt buried under your mental checklist, this one’s for you!

I pray this episode encourages you!

Hugs!

You know that task on your to-do list that keeps getting pushed off, even though you know it would simplify your life in the long run? Decluttering can often feel like a never-ending task that is always lurking in the background. Finding time to clear the clutter when you’re already juggling kids, home and maybe even a business can feel impossible. That’s why I’m so excited to have Emily McDermott on the show today!

Emily is a wife, mom of two boys and the host of Moms Overcoming Overwhelm, where she helps moms simplify their home, head and heart—without adding more stress. In this episode, she’s sharing where to begin when decluttering feels overwhelming, simple strategies to weave it into your busy life and how to make it a natural rhythm instead of just another chore. If you’re ready to finally declutter and simplify your home, I pray this episode gives you the encouragement you need to take that first step!

Hugs!

In today’s Memo in the Margins episode, my husband Mat joins me as we unpack why we were out at 10 PM with all three kids (not our norm!) and recap a whirlwind weekend of family, chaos, and the cutest little flower girls.

We’re also diving into the “it takes a village” conversation—how we’ve built a strong support system over the last five years of parenting, why community matters so much, and how you can create it even without family nearby. If you’ve ever longed for deeper connections or just want the behind-the-scenes of our wild weekend, this one’s for you!

I pray this episode encourages you!

Hugs!

Have you ever dreamed of having a garden but felt overwhelmed by where to start—especially with kids in the mix? As a mom, adding one more thing to the daily chaos can feel like too much, but gardening doesn’t have to be complicated! 

In today’s episode, I’m getting into the weeds of how I homestead and the simple rhythms I follow every spring to set up our garden for success. But the biggest hesitation I hear? “I just don’t have the time.” Or, “Maybe in the future when life slows down.” I get it! That’s exactly why we’re diving into this today—how to approach gardening in a way that’s simple, sustainable, and actually fun for both you and your kids (and not just more work for you). Whether you’re already deep into seed starting or just daydreaming about a future garden, this episode will give you practical tips and encouragement to make it happen without feeling overwhelmed.

I pray this episode encourages you!

Hugs!

Ever had a day where you wake up with big plans only to have them completely derailed by a sick kiddo? In today’s Memos in the Margins episode, we’re talking about those inevitable moments when sickness hits the house and everything has to pivot. As moms we know the drill—plans shift, to-do lists get tossed aside, and we have to lean into our resilience. But instead of feeling frustrated, what if we leaned into the joy of being the one our kids need most? 

We’re also sharing our approach to tackling weekend tasks and finding the balance between productivity and quality family time. Getting things done matters, but so does slowing down and making space to enjoy the moments that fill your cup for the week ahead.

I pray this episode encourages you!

Hugs!

Do you ever feel a little stir-crazy when you're stuck inside for too long? As a SAHM, it’s easy to feel overstimulated and stuck on repeat. In today’s voice-memo style episode, I'm sharing how we survived 72 straight hours at home during a snowstorm and one of my biggest sanity savers as a mom—including how we reset when our hearts and minds need a shift.

We’re also talking about the importance of making time for yourself. Whether it’s grabbing coffee with a friend or planning a much-needed girls’ night, getting out without the kids every once in a while is so necessary. If you’ve been feeling overstimulated, stuck in the same daily routine, or just in need of a reset, this episode is full of simple, doable ways to bring more joy into your days.

I pray this episode encourages you!

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the early years of motherhood, wondering if you're focusing on the right things? If you’ve ever felt the pressure to do it all but long for a simpler, more peaceful approach, this episode is for you. Today, I’m chatting with Jennifer Pepito, author, founder of The Peaceful Press and host of the Restoration Home Podcast about how to bring more peace and intentionality into your motherhood journey.

Jennifer shares powerful wisdom on how to align your priorities with what truly matters—starting with what you want your children to remember about their childhood and working backward to structure your days accordingly. We dive into practical habits that create a more peaceful home, ways to take the pressure off of doing all the things, and the mindset shifts that can help you truly enjoy these little years. Jennifer has spent years helping moms overcome fear and embrace purpose, and her heart for this shines through in today’s conversation. I know it was exactly the reminder I needed, and I pray it encourages you, too!

Hugs!

Do you ever feel like you’re always chasing the next goal constantly thinking, I’ll be happy when… instead of enjoying where you are right now? In today’s episode, we’re diving into the importance of marking the journey, not just the destination. I’m sharing a conversation I had with my husband this weekend that completely shifted my perspective on celebrating progress, even when things don’t go as planned (including a little birthday mishap!).

This episode is part of a more casual, voice memo-style series where I bring you behind the scenes into the real, messy, beautiful moments of everyday life. If you’ve ever struggled with feeling like you have to earn the right to celebrate, I hope this conversation encourages you to pause, reflect, and find joy in the journey—because that’s where life really happens.

I pray this episode encourages you!

Hugs!
