The Unhurried Life

The first time I met Kate I got to hear an in-depth life testimony that moved me to tears as well as laughs of joy. I mean, she is being used in big ways!

If you're thinking her last name looks a tad familiar you've probably heard it on Christian radio. Francesca is her daughter and wait until you hear about the advice Kate gives on raising such an amazing, God fearing woman!

From unexpected book deals to a life that was quite opposite of how she would have planned it out. Tune in to hear how Kate's life was used so differently than she could have ever thought up for herself!

I honestly feel like this may have been a personal chat with an old friend. Kate has wisdom to share and it comes out in our talk today.

I don't really feel like I need to lead up any more with this woman I just want you to get to know her for yourself!

Ever tried, paleo, Whole 30, keto? What about 30 days of yoga or New Year's resolution to get to the gym more?

Raising my hand over here.

But then somehow it doesn't stick or I get distracted. Why is that?

This week on The Unhurried Life with Gretchen Gegg we talk about finding fitness that's right for your lifestyle so it BECOMES part of your lifestyle!

Her approach is unique and I had never really thought about it in this way.

"How to find the right fitness fit, find the one that's serving you for you."

Ready to tune in and find fitness that fits!? Let's go!

Have you ever walked through a hard time in life, I mean like harder than usual?

A time of life that you look back on (or you're maybe in now) and think, "how did I even do that?"

Meg did. Meg Stratton was struggling with postpartum depression when she made a decision to not let any other mama go through what she was going through alone!

That's a big decision! She's so bold and she's definitely making an impact when it comes to mom-ing and business and knowing how to stay grounded.

Join us on The Unhurried Life podcast this week as we talk about finding growth through the hard times and coming out on the other side prepared to be the woman you were created to be!

These times are truly lived "in the trenches" and we're all just trying to figure it out.

Have you ever found yourself throwing up your hands as a parent and just feeling like you need to give in. Are we doing aaaaannnny of this right, are our kids going to make it, will they be helpful citizens of society?

I know there have been times I flop down on the couch at bed time and wonder, where did the day go, what did I truly accomplish?

But then I talk to people like Amy Carney. She gives me a tiny light at the end of this parenting tunnel. She's been there, she's made it out and she's one of the most kindest women to guide you through.

I'm thrilled to get to share her and her approach to purposeful parenting! I know I needed a pep talk!

Trying to decide what's for dinner? What should I get at the store this week? I need some inspiration!

Well let me give you an inside look into my every week grocery order and why. These 5 things keep me sane (and keep my brain from getting totally fried).

This week on the podcast I let you see why I always (and yes I mean always) get 5 specific items at the grocery store. I also tell you WHY I get them and how they help cut down on the meal planning I do weekly and help me stay healthy!

This is a easy listen, it's not too long but it packs a punch! Ready to tune in!?

I'd love to hear what you think of the episode. Leave a review and let me know if you want more "inside looks" into living healthy and simplified. Is this an episode you want more of? More recipes, healthy, tasty, simple? Let me know! Leave a comment where you listen (Apple, Spotify, Stitcher) and let me know what you think!

I've been there, I've compared others bests with my worsts. Have you?

If you're human I bet the answer is yes.

Well, I'm going to give my best efforts to build you up and shed some light, bust the myth that we mamas can "do it all".

It starts with something so simple that we get completely hung up on. Asking for help.

Now let me clarify, just because we CAN do something does not mean we need to. Yes, after I gave birth to our 3rd child I COULD go to the grocery story and get gas and make my kids lunches 3 days after I left the hospital but that does not mean I SHOULD!

Just because I saw some adorable gal on Insta meal prepping 3 seconds after the umbilical cord was cut does not mean she does not have help behind the scenes.

In this week's episode I'm sharing a few places in my life where I have asked for extra help and how it's OKAY to ask.

I'll also be asking you some self evaluation questions and then be walking you through how to get the answer you want not the answer you gave!

Tune in to The Unhurried Life and get a good ol' dose of reality as I bust the myth on "doing it all."

This topic is hot. It's hard to talk about and not sound "judgy" but let me tell you, as a family that is doing this already, this process is a ... well a process!

Screens.

Yup, they tend to sneak in and take over and there is no easy way to say it, screens mess with you.

They mess with your confidence, hello Instagram comparison game.

We're all guilty to some level which is why I'm so glad to have Molly on the podcast this week.

You may or may not know but my own family is screen free and have been for 3 years now, wow! Can't believe it's been that long. Molly brings a fresh perspective into living a life with less screens and how to get there.

We're calling it a Screen Detox. You'll want to hear this cause....if Molly, mom of FIVE can do it, then there is hope for you, too!

But remember - We're all in different places when it comes to the amount of screen time we let into our lives so - Judgement free zone here!

Tune in, can't wait to hear what you think!
