Hey, I’m Dana, a Christian wife and homeschool mom of three. For most of my life, I felt overwhelmed and tried to control everything I possibly could. I felt like every area of my life wasn’t measuring up, and I was failing at being a mom, a wife, and a friend. I found myself people-pleasing or numbing out by scrolling social media and watching mindless TV, just to try to feel good inside. I finally realized that the emptiness I felt could only be filled by God. I began to learn what He said about me and traded the lies I was believing for biblical truths. Once I understood that holding everything together didn’t depend on me alone, I was able to start planning my life with intention instead of just hanging on for dear life. These shifts completely changed my life, and I am so excited to share them with you!
If you’re finally ready to lose that overwhelmed feeling, release the guilt you’ve been shouldering, find your true identity in who God says you are, and discover a clear, simple planning system that actually works for your life and priorities—this podcast is for you! Join me every week for episodes packed with encouragement, biblical wisdom, and actionable steps to help you trade chaos for peace and stress for purpose.

11 | This ONE Excuse Is Keeping You From Prioritizing Peace in Your Daily Schedule
Have you ever caught yourself saying, “When things slow down…” or “After this season, it’ll be less busy…”? You’re not alone—I’ve said it too. But here’s the hard truth: it’s not just the holidays, soccer season, or back-to-school time that feels overwhelming. The busyness never stops unless we make intentional changes.
In this episode, we’re having a heart-to-heart about the myth of “less busy seasons.” I’ll share why this mindset keeps us stuck, how we’re conditioned to wear busyness like a badge of honor, and the real reason we feel so stretched in every stage of life.
We’ll also dive into:
Why it feels like there’s always something keeping us busy.
The importance of identifying where your time is actually going.
How to be the gatekeeper of your family’s schedule—and say no with grace.
A challenge to rethink how you answer, “How are you?”
If you’ve been waiting for the busy to end on its own, let this episode be the wake-up call (and permission) you need to take back control of your time and energy.
