Are you a mom who constantly feels overwhelmed? Sick of feeling like you’re failing? Do you believe there has to be something more?
In this podcast, you will discover the secrets to trading your chaos in once and for all. My mission is to give you practical tools to intentionally plan your life, find your identity in God, build a daily faith walk, and get rid of the things holding you back from your best. If you’re ready to shove aside the constant striving and running and settle into a life you actually want to be a part of—you’re in the right place!
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.
