  • 144 | The Trap So Many Moms Don’t Realize They’re In // Blooming & Becoming

    Have you ever opened Instagram for “just a minute” and walked away feeling worse about your life? Like suddenly your home, your motherhood, your body, or your routines don’t quite measure up?

    In this episode, I’m talking about the comparison trap so many of us fall into — especially in motherhood — and how it quietly steals our joy without us even realizing it. Because comparison doesn’t just make us admire someone else’s life… it often makes us distrust our own.

    If you’ve been feeling stuck in comparison, questioning yourself, or struggling to stay present in your own life, this episode will gently call you back to peace, purpose, and joy — right where you are.

  • 143 | Simple Rhythms to Feel More Alive as a Mom // Blooming & Becoming

    What does it actually look like to feel alive again in motherhood?

    In this episode, I’m talking about what a vibrant, full life really looks like — not in a perfect, put-together way, but in a real, everyday motherhood kind of way. If you’ve been feeling disconnected, stuck in survival mode, or like you’re just going through the motions, this conversation will help you take a deep breath and come back to what matters.

    We’re walking through simple, life-giving rhythms that help you feel more like yourself again — from staying rooted in Jesus, to caring for your body, tending to your emotional health, and learning to notice joy in the small, ordinary moments of your day.

    This is a gentle, grace-filled invitation to stop overcomplicating it and start living the full life Jesus offers you — right here, right now.

  • 142 | When Motherhood Starts to Feel Like Survival // Blooming & Becoming

    If motherhood has started to feel more like survival than truly living, this episode is for you.

    Today we’re talking about the subtle lie that moms have to put their whole personhood on pause — that your joy, your health, your creativity, and the parts of you that make you you can wait for a later season. I’m sharing a gentle but honest perspective on burnout, “martyr mom” culture, and the difference between true surrender and self-erasure.

    This is a hope-filled invitation to step out of survival mode and into the full, vibrant life Jesus offers you right here in the middle of motherhood — not someday, but now.

  • 141 | The Truth About Losing Yourself in Motherhood // Blooming & Becoming

    If you’ve been feeling like you’ve lost yourself in motherhood, this episode is for you.

    Today we’re talking about the identity shift that happens in this season — how easy it is to feel disconnected from who you used to be, and the quiet question so many moms carry: who am I now? I want to gently remind you that you’re not disappearing… you’re becoming.

    This is a hope-filled conversation for the mom who feels overwhelmed, stretched, or unsure of her identity, and a reminder that God is still shaping something beautiful in you right here.

  • 140 | Are You Missing the Life Jesus Promised You? // Blooming & Becoming

    If motherhood has been feeling more like survival mode than abundant life lately, this episode is for you.

    In this season opener, I’m sharing the heart behind this spring series and talking about what Jesus actually meant when He said He came so we could have life to the full.

    Through the lens of John 10:10, I want to encourage the Christian mom who feels overwhelmed, stuck, or like she’s lost herself in motherhood with the reminder that abundant life is still available — even in the middle of the ordinary, messy, beautiful work of raising kids.

    This episode is a hope-filled conversation about motherhood, identity, joy, and becoming the woman God is shaping you to be.

  • 139 | How to Create Daily Rhythms That Spark Joy and Serve Your Home

    If you’re overwhelmed and craving structure but feel like routines never stick — this episode is for you.

     

    Today I’m sharing the weekly and monthly rhythms that are sparking joy in my life right now — but more importantly, I’m walking you through how to build rhythms that actually work for your season.

     

    Because rhythms aren’t one-size-fits-all.

    What worked six months ago might not work now.

    In this episode we talk about:

    • The mindset shift required before habits will stick

    • Why consistency + discipline matter more than motivation

    • My simple monthly check-in rhythm

    • My Sunday weekly reset

    • How to create daily flow so your day feels intentional instead of reactive

    • You don’t need to copy my rhythms.

      You need to build ones that serve your goals and your home.

    • 138 | When Life Is “Life-ing”: A Mental Health & Motherhood Update

      In today’s episode, I’m pulling you in close for a cozy couch chat — a little life update, a little peek behind the curtain, and a lot of honesty.

      The truth? The transition to four kids hasn’t been as “easy breezy” as I hoped it would be. I’ve been navigating postpartum life, mental health struggles, sleepless nights, and the humbling reality that I can’t do it all — even though sometimes my pride wishes I could.

      In this episode, I’m sharing:

      • What the last few months have really looked like behind the scenes
      • How my mental health quietly took a hit
      • The pressure to be the “effortless mom” — and why I’m letting that go
      • What God is teaching me about presence in this season
      • Why I’m choosing to stop counting down milestones and start soaking up the now
      • If you’ve ever found yourself wishing away a season…

        If you’ve felt like you’re barely keeping your head above water…
        If you’re in a rhythm-reset moment…

        You’re not alone.

        This is your reminder that you don’t need to be perfect — just present.

        Refill your coffee. Fold the laundry. Take a walk.

        Let’s sit side by side for a bit.

      • 137 | I'm Actually Excited About My New Year's Goals: How I'm Doing 2026 Differently

        This year, we’re doing things differently.

        If you’ve ever felt behind before the year even starts... or sworn off resolutions completely because they never seem to stick — this episode is for you. In today’s episode, I'm walking you through a gentle, faith-filled approach to planning your year. Not one that piles on more pressure, but one that invites peace, presence, and God into the process.

        I’ll share how I’m vision-casting for 2026, the simple method that’s keeping me grounded, and how to break free from the all-or-nothing spiral so many of us fall into come January.

        In this episode:

        • the real reason most new year goals don’t work (and how to change that)
        • how to create a God-centered vision you’ll actually carry through the year
        • my favorite framework for building rhythms that last
        • how to stop making goals from a place of shame or striving
        • choosing a word, verse, and vision statement with meaning

      • 136 | Kelsea Ballerini Daydreams About The Life You Take For Granted

        What if the life you're living—complete with sticky fingers, sleepless nights, and scattered toys—is the very dream someone else is praying for?

        In this episode, Jenna shares a powerful, scripture-based perspective shift on motherhood, contentment, and the eternal value of raising a family. Inspired by recent songs from Taylor Swift and Kelsea Ballerini, we unpack what it means to be “rich in the ways that matter” and why the world’s definition of success often falls short of God’s design.

        Whether you’re battling comparison, questioning your purpose, or simply feeling tired in the day-to-day, this episode will remind you that motherhood isn’t a detour from your calling—it is the calling.

      • 135 | The Truth About Motherhood: What God Says When You Feel Like You’re Not Enough

        Have you ever caught yourself thinking “I’m failing,” or “Everyone else is doing it better”?

        You’re not alone.

        In today’s episode, we’re walking through seven common lies that so many of us as moms believe — and the freeing truths from God’s Word that replace them.

        From feeling like you have to do it all, to wrestling with comparison or body shame, this one’s a tender reminder that your worth isn’t found in your performance, but in the Person of Jesus.

        Grab your coffee, breathe deep, and let’s invite Truth to do what it always does — set us free.

         In this episode you’ll hear:

        • Why your “messy middle” might be the very place God is forming you

        • The better question to ask when you feel overwhelmed

        • How to recognize lies that sound almost true but steal your peace

        • Practical ways to replace false beliefs with Scripture and hope

        • “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” — John 8:32
