More about the show

Christian coaching for busy moms to have motivation, balance, patience, and peace using simple routines for more productivity with less burnout and mom guilt.

Do you do everything you can to raise your kids right but constantly ask yourself, “What did I do wrong?” As much as you love your kids and hard as you try to be a good mom, you secretly feel like you’re failing as a mom. Is the stress from it all getting to you? Leaving you drained, exhausted, and a bit defeated. Wondering what you need to do differently to make sure your kids are happy and that you’re doing everything possible for them to succeed?

I’m so excited you’re here!

This podcast will give you parenting tips grounded in Biblical principles and simple strategies to strip away stress, overwhelm, & comparison so you can show up as the mom you want to be – joyful, peaceful, and productive.

Hi! I’m Jill. :) A wife, mom of 5, and recovering control freak… otherwise known as a perfectionist. For years I struggled with burnout, mom guilt, and feeling like a failure as a mom. Overwhelm and constant stress made it feel like the weight of the world rested on my shoulders alone, sucking the joy out of motherhood.

I finally realized that if I wanted to raise happy children and enjoy motherhood, I needed to focus on my own emotional health and mindset first. And from there, my kids would follow.

So I created a plan. One that put God first, seeking His wisdom instead of Google’s, building a relationship with Him instead social media. And a crazy thing happened. As my mind got into alignment with God, my kids’ attitudes completely changed. The house got cleaner. My patience grew. And I found myself smiling again and setting goals for my life as a mom.

If you’re ready to stop worrying constantly about your kids, the house, and what you’re doing wrong so you can finally find peace, balance, and joy in daily life as a mom, this podcast is for you.

So grab your warm cup of tea and your fuzzy blanket. It’s time to dive in!
