The Balanced MomCast | For Overwhelmed Christian Moms Seeking Time Management, Work Life Balance, and Focus

Many of you have emailed us thanking us for blazing a trail for writers to leave social media. But we are only widening a trail that others had blazed for us. In today’s episode, Sandy sits down with author Kate Merrick, who was one such trailblazer. Join us to hear why Kate decided to live off the grid and how it’s impacted her life, her business, and her writing career. This is a special episode--a replay of an interview that first aired in 2022 on The Balanced MomCast. It is Part 1 of a 3-part conversation. Click here for show notes.

How do we teach our kids to think well and to discern truth from lies when the culture says, "Follow your heart." "Trust your feelings." "Look within for the answers."? Today, I welcome Elizabeth Urbanowicz from Foundation Worldview. We discuss some hard topics and the importance of teaching our kids a Biblical worldview without becoming jerks.  For show notes, click here.

Today I welcome back to the show, my husband of 30 years, Jon Cooper. If you haven’t listened to EP196, I encourage you to do that first. Today in part 2 of this 2-part conversation, we talk about marriage counseling, aha moments we’ve had in our marriage, what we wish we would have done differently, conflict resolution, love languages, the secret to a happy marriage, and so much more.

But Kingdom Culture offers us another way. If you’re feeling burdened or burnt out by seasons of over production and growth, this episode is for you. Click here for show notes

Hustle culture is the mentality that says if you work hard enough, you will become successful. And the more successful you are, the more powerful you are. And the more successful and powerful you are, the happier you will be. But hustle culture is failing us--compromising our health, our relationships, and our peace. What’s the alternative? And what does it have to do with social media? Find out in this episode! Click here for show notes.

Today’s episode is for the tired moms. And let’s face it, that’s most of you--maybe all of you. You are tired from the last 3 years. You are tired of the cultural climate. You are tired because you haven’t had a full night’s sleep since you brought your baby home from the hospital. You are tired from the marriage issues or the work issues or the financial issues or the extended family issues or the health issues. You need rest. Real rest. Restorative rest. Sustaining rest. I'm gonna help you with that today.  Click here for show notes.  Click here to learn more about becoming a Patron.

What do you do when all your well-laid plans are ready to go and life throws you a curveball? Maybe you get sick or a kid gets sick. Maybe your appointment cancels or your contractor delays finishing the renovation again. Well, guys…that’s me right now. Today’s episode is brought to you by The Curveball. Our special guest is Mary K Tiller, jumping in as our pinch hitter(why so many baseball analogies?–I know nothing about baseball!)

Last year, Mary K experienced a tornado hitting her home, weeks of sickness running through her household, and a 7-day power outage that forced her to go 3 ½ hours away from home to stay with family until power was restored. She’s here to share what she put into practice to hold it together during that disruptive time–and you can, too! (And so can I!)
