1. Identifying the values that matter most to you and
2. Making a list of the responsibilities entrusted to you in this season of life.
Evaluate your schedule and intentionally allocate dedicated time for these areas. Surrender these lists to God, seeking His guidance and direction.
Balancing family, work, and our personal lives can be challenging, but with the Lord's guidance, we can confidently live out our callings. Trust in Him, and He will teach you the best way forward.

Ep 08 // Finding Strength When Anxiety Is High

Anxiety is very real - as well as living with feelings of worry, fear, and panic. The journey of living and managing anxiety is personal; no one is the same. Many factors, including mental, physical, emotional, genetic, and others, can make these giants feel like bigger obstacles to overcome on certain days…but with all that, it’s also crucial to believe that there is hope.
Today is all about finding that hope. I’m not here today pretending to diagnose or prescribe anything to supply a quick fix or cure for what has been for a lot of us, years of battling and managing anxiety. But what I do aim to do is offer encouragement and hope to anyone searching for a breakthrough.
When anxiety is at its loudest….we tend to fixate on how big it is and lose sight of how big our God is. Anxiety is one of the easiest vehicles the devil can use in our lives, to take us all further from God. Anxiety may be a giant obstacle we have to work through, but our living God is bigger. In life, we all so easily get distracted and forget how powerful God is. We need to pause and reflect on whatever we need to do, to move Jesus front and center. To dig into God’s word, rest in His peace that surpasses all understanding and believe in the promises that will protect us from what the devil wants us to believe as a way to experience more peace. 
 
In the episode I have referenced a handful of scriptures that bring me peace when anxiety comes knocking. You can click the link below to get the printable with the scriptures as well as additional ones that I love.

Ep 06 // Maximizing Summertime with Kids While Working

It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that we need to provide our families with extravagant vacations, or even that we need to do major things with them or we are somehow not providing a good enough childhood. But in reality, it’s the simple moments of our lives that hold the greatest value and become the most cherished. 
 
Summertime tends to yield longer days and we have the opportunity to capitalize on the time we have with our kids now. These moments and the time we have with our kids is precious, and by taking time to invest in them today, we can create lifelong memories and honor the life and experiences God is blessing us with by spending intentional time with them. 
 
In episode 6, I am sharing a few simple, and easy ideas that you can do with your kids to help maximize the time you have with your family over summer. I urge you to take a few minutes and reflect on times in your day that you can be more mindful in the moment and have shared experiences with your kids so you can build up you and your kid’s bank of family memories.

Ep 05 // 5 Easy Ways to Connect With Your Kids When Life Is Busy

As working Moms, life is and will always be “busy”. But it's important to be intentional and carve out time to connect with our kids despite the busyness. Just as it is crucial for us to have a sense of connection and a supportive community to rely on for ourselves, it is equally vital for our children to have that foundational bond and safety net as well. And as their Moms, we get to hold the privilege and responsibility of cultivating that environment for them.
 
We all have kids, with their own schedules and commitments - and the list of things on the schedule continues to grow as they age. We can’t wait until we are less busy to build quality time with our kids because in all sincerity, that time will most likely never come. There will always be things battling for our attention no matter what season we are in. 
 
So how exactly do we go about building a deeper connection with our kids? How do we diligently follow this call of intentional motherhood when there are so many other things that we feel or think need our attention first? I have 5 things I’m going to remind us and challenge us to do over the next couple days to help us.
