Do you ever feel guilty for not spending “enough” time with God — like your schedule is too full for prayer, scripture, or quiet moments? You’re not alone, Mama.
In this episode, I’ll share 8 simple ways to include God in your busy daily routine — practical, grace-filled habits that bring His peace right into the middle of motherhood.
You’ll learn how to turn your ordinary moments into sacred ones, find calm in the chaos, and remember that God isn’t asking for perfection… He just wants to walk with you through it all. 🌿
Have you ever felt lost in your role as a mom and wondered who you are beyond the daily routines? If so, this episode is for you. These Christ-centered affirmations will help you reconnect with your true identity — not just as a mother, but as a beloved daughter of God.
Have you ever felt like motherhood has become your whole name—like you’re “mom” to everyone, but you’re not sure where you went? In this heartfelt episode, we’ll talk about what it truly means to rediscover who you are beyond your role, and how remembering your divine identity as a daughter of God can change everything about how you think, love, and live.
You’ll learn how understanding the difference between your identity and your role brings peace, confidence, and purpose back into motherhood. Together, we’ll explore what God says about who you are, how to strengthen your sense of worth through faith, and what to do when you start to feel lost in the busyness of life.
You’ll walk away feeling seen, grounded, and reminded that your worth never changes—not by what you do, but by who you are. 🌿

Hey Mama 💛
Do you ever catch yourself stuck in negative thinking? Maybe shame whispers that you’re not doing enough… or you’re falling short as a mom. I’ve been there too — and today, I want to help you see how God calls us to something greater.
In this episode, we’ll walk through how to renew your mind in Christ (Romans 12:2), recognize those sneaky lies that try to hold you down, and replace them with the positive truths God speaks over you. You’ll also learn three practical steps to retrain your thoughts through Scripture, gratitude, and affirmation — so you can walk in daily peace and purpose.
We’ll talk about:

From growing up with autism to facing loneliness, bullying, and moments of deep doubt, I’ve seen firsthand how God can take our pain and turn it into purpose. In this episode, I share how His grace carried me through the hardest moments — and how that same grace is carrying you too, Mama.
If you’ve ever felt unseen, unworthy, or alone in your motherhood journey, this is for you. I pray it helps you see that God is nearer than you think — only a prayer away.

Have you ever felt weighed down by chronic pain, emotional heaviness, or the belief that your body is broken? This week’s affirmation episode is here to remind you of the truth: your body is not broken — it is brilliant. 💛
These short, Christ-centered affirmations are inspired by my conversation with my cousin Adrianne Steward, who shared her journey of healing chronic pain through mindset, belief, and faith. They are truths she spoke over herself, and they can bless you too.
What if your mindset could help heal your body?
In this powerful and personal episode, I sit down with my cousin Adrianne Steward—a mindset coach, literacy specialist, and chronic pain warrior. After spending four years in a wheelchair with no medical answers, Adrianne began a healing journey that started in her thoughts and transformed her entire life.
We talk about:
✨ How shifting her thoughts helped her walk again
✨ What the CTFR model is and how it can empower Christian moms
✨ Tools like “Rage on the Page,” gratitude, and grounding techniques
✨ How to create emotional safety for yourself and your children
✨ The connection between survival guilt, shame, and healing
Adrianne’s story is a reminder that your body isn’t broken—it’s brilliant. And when you create safety in your thoughts, healing becomes possible.
If shame has been whispering lies — that you’re not enough, unloved, or unworthy — this short affirmation episode is your invitation to pause and believe something different.
In this companion piece to Shame vs. Guilt, you’ll hear faith‑filled affirmations designed to help you:
• Reject shame and embrace God’s love and grace
• Own your worth as a daughter of God, not defined by your past
• Use holy tools to anchor your identity in truth, not fear
Let these truths wash over you today: you are forgiven, you are enough, you are deeply loved. Repeat these affirmations, let them settle in your heart, and let God’s peace fill your mind.
Do you ever feel like you’re not enough—no matter how hard you try? You’re not alone, mama.
In this episode, we walk through the powerful difference between guilt and shame from both a psychological and gospel-centered perspective. Guilt can lead us back to Christ. Shame tries to convince us we’re beyond His reach. You’ll learn how to recognize the lies of shame, embrace God’s grace, and hold on to the truth of your divine worth.
✨ In this episode, you’ll discover:
How to tell the difference between shame and godly guilt
Powerful insights from Brené Brown, Elder Christofferson, and scripture
Why shame grows in secrecy—and how to stop it with grace and empathy
Encouragement and biblical truth to help you let go of perfectionism
This episode is for any Christian mama who’s ready to stop spiraling in shame and start walking in her God-given identity—with grace.
If you’ve ever felt like your emotions are too much—or like you’re juggling everyone else’s while forgetting your own—you’re not alone, Mama. 💛
In this short but powerful episode, I’ll walk you through gentle, Christ-centered affirmations to help you:
Regulate your emotions with grace
Strengthen your mindset through truth
Invite God into the messiest moments of difficult emotions
You’ll also hear a powerful exercise shared by my mentor Kathi: learning to describe how an emotion feels by giving it a color and a shape. This simple practice can help you better understand, process, and release what you’re feeling—instead of holding it all inside. It’s a beautiful tool you can pass on to your children too.
Whether you’re in the car, folding laundry, or simply trying to breathe between meltdowns, let these truths root you back in God’s peace and remind you: emotional resilience starts with grace—and it’s something you can grow into, one step at a time.
Do you feel like you’re carrying the emotional load for everyone around you — your kids, your spouse, your family — while your own emotions get buried beneath the weight?
In this heartfelt conversation, I sit down with my friend and mentor Kathi Hausmann to talk about emotional resilience — how we as moms can process our feelings, show up with grace, and let God into the messy middle of it all.
Together, we talk about:
✨ What emotional resilience actually looks like for Christian moms
✨ How unprocessed emotions can affect our parenting and peace
✨ The power of slowing down and inviting God into the healing process
✨ Simple strategies to begin regulating emotions without guilt
✨ Using color and shape to identify and work through feelings
✨ Why grace and gentleness start with how we speak to ourselves
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by your own reactions or wondered if you’re doing enough emotionally — this episode is your reminder that your feelings are not a flaw. They’re a God-given tool to help you grow, heal, and connect.💛

In today’s episode, we’re digging into why your mindset matters so much — especially as a Christian mom — and how God invites us to renew our minds, not just manage our mess.
We’ll walk through:
What mindset actually is (and how it quietly shapes your motherhood)
How scripture and psychology both agree: transformation starts with your thoughts
3 simple tools to start shifting your mindset today
Why you don’t have to fix yourself first before receiving God’s grace
We’ll also explore wisdom from scripture and trusted voices like Joyce Meyer, Carol Dweck (Mindset), and Maxwell Maltz (Psycho-Cybernetics) to help you replace self-criticism with truth and peace.
If you're tired of spiraling or reacting in ways that don’t reflect who you really are in Christ—this episode will feel like a breath of fresh, grace-filled air.
