Welcome back to the kitchen table. Bethany sits down with Laura Hernandez, a mom of ten and an expert in creating household systems to help you operate with more peace and less chaos. Heading into summertime, when routines may change, and children are out of school, managing chaos in the house can be a challenge. However, Laura provides listeners with proactive strategies, and you can maintain a sense of peace while minimizing chaos.

As moms, we often operate on auto-pilot and believe we should do it all, but we must remember to give ourselves the grace to know that no household is perfect. Join Bethany and Laura as they dive into the systems Laura uses with her family but also provide listeners with simple and easy systems to incorporate within their homes. 

While summertime lends a change in routine and more downtime, it’s also a great time to plan and conquer new systems you’ll want to utilize during the school year. Moms play a vital role in managing their households, and having systems in place can significantly help eliminate chaos and create a more peaceful and functional environment.

Bethany welcomes you to the kitchen table this week for a crucial conversation on combating the thoughts that turn our minds into a battlefield with the enemy. In motherhood, we make mistakes and messes, but the enemy aims to bring us into a place of regret and sadness. Bethany inspires confidence and discernment on how to handle the thoughts that come against us.

Bethany holds tight to the importance of guarding our minds and thoughts against harmful and destructive influences and to seek the truth of God's word as a source of wisdom, guidance, and spiritual protection. Christ chose you, he knows you'll make mistakes, but he doesn't plan to condemn you for them. He will invest in you.

Sit with Bethany as she uses scripture, truth, and guidance to help you uncover the power to discern the enemy so that you can declare yourself in Christ and allow his voice to be louder. The enemy wants you to believe that you're doing it all wrong, but mamas, you're not the words, the voices, or the thoughts the enemy feeds you. When you have a stronghold on the Lord's promises and his voice, you can learn to navigate motherhood from a place of peace. You'll begin to understand that you're not meant to do it perfectly.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Do you ever find yourself getting lost in the thought that you’re not a good mom or somehow you’re messing everything up? You aren’t alone. The majority of moms are struggling with this thought. Bethany gives listeners hope and encouragement with a powerful reminder that God isn’t giving us a grade in motherhood.

Bethany brings listeners into Gospel truth to help combat these moments of vulnerability, questioning, and insecurity in mothering children. As moms, we put pressure on ourselves and don’t walk surrendered to God but instead try to make fruit ourselves.

Join Bethany as she uses scripture and word pictures that will provide insight into the ways Jesus is working within us to change us and fill us with fruit so that we can pour into our children with love, patience, grace, and joy even in the moments that we don’t feel that we have it all together.

Welcome back to the kitchen table, Bethany invites listeners to continue the conversation on leading a life of investment. Last week Bethany introduced this concept, and in today's episode, Bethany dives deeper into how it practically plays into our lives and in motherhood.

We are called to be investors and cultivators, and Bethany gives word pictures and scriptures to help listeners not only understand but apply this to their daily lives. We are called to be cultivators in not only our marriages and our homes but in our communities. 

Bethany gives practical tools and tips to help you understand that we can walk beside Jesus as he is the grower, and we are the planters and the waterers.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Bethany invites listeners to look at their lives from an investment standpoint through the gospel lens. Life gets busy, and we fill our time, but are we filling it with Kingdom purpose?

Bethany is breaking down the concept of investment through her experiences, knowledge, and scripture to help listeners understand this concept more deeply. Through the mundane and busy day-to-day, it can feel that the Lord isn’t there, but he is, and he’s invested, so how can we ensure that we live our lives purposefully?

Bethany uses word pictures and a familiar phrase in her home to help you see where you are pouring into with intention and what it means for your family, motherhood, marriage, and walk with Jesus.

Welcome to another episode of the Warrior Mama Podcast. As we head into Easter weekend, Bethany shares an important message on Jesus’s abundant love for us until the end. Bethany hopes these conversations will guide you as you walk into Easter with your children and loved ones. 

Bethany anchors listeners in various scriptures and takes them apart to show the message that God consistently delivers. As moms, we aren’t perfect, we have bad days, but Jesus doesn’t love us because of our perfect parenting. He selected each of us regardless of performance. 

Jesus has and will continue to love us until the very end, and through his love, he gives us the ability to love others abundantly. Through Jesus’s sacrifice on the cross, we can walk daily knowing that being loved isn’t contingent on anything except who we are. Bethany so beautifully walks listeners through Jesus’s love and how we can portray this reminder to our children throughout Easter week and every day.

This week on the Warrior Mama Podcast, Bethany continues her conversation on tempering our big emotions as parents when conflicts arise in our households. Sibling arguments, disagreements, and conflicts come with the parenting territory, and it’s no secret that they can trigger our emotions as mamas. 

Bethany speaks to listeners about a word picture that Jesus used in the bible that beautifully lays the framework of how we can communicate and handle conflict the way Jesus did. Jesus didn’t graze the service; instead, he did more profound heart work by leading with compassion, not consequences. 

Listen in as Bethany gives practice and tangible advice so you can implement this framework into your parenting. Bethany gives encouragement and grace, reminding you that it’s not easy to pause, ask the right questions, and communicate before immediately reacting with a scold or a consequence. Bethany encourages us to be like Jesus while understanding that while we can’t change the heart of our children, we can pivot them closer to the Lord.
