We were already doing that.We just do it differently—and that’s okay. Letting our kids run barefoot in the grass (I gave up on shoes a while ago), build forts, help in the kitchen—even if it means a mess—dig in the dirt and sing like no one’s watching. We are letting them be kids—free to play, […]

Mama, how often do you feel guilty for resting — or even thinking about it? I know I used to. I felt like I had to do it all — and only when everything was finished, then I’d maybe allow myself to rest. But even before becoming a mom, I carried guilt around slowing down. […]

As a mom I often wonder if I’m enough for my family and friends. So often I used to think I was always behind everything. Behind on laundry. Behind on purpose. Behind on who I was supposed to be. But when I stop, take a breathe and pray, I remember this truth I so often […]

The Pressure to Keep Going I used to believe that resting meant I was lazy. That slowing down or saying no meant I was letting my family down. The world tells us we should be able to juggle it all — spotless houses, home-cooked meals, thriving kids and a perfectly planned week. So even when […]

You Were Never Meant to Do It All: Creating Space for What Matters Most When I became a mom, I felt a heavy pressure that so many of us carry — the pressure to do it all, be it all, manage it all — and make it look easy. I used to believe that if […]

If I’m being honest, Tuesdays are my least favorite day of the week. They’re the hardest day we have—and I’m not even sure why. I never got to experience the “terrible twos” that so many other moms talk about. But now? I feel like I’m living in a different kind of terrible two—Terrible Tues. For […]

Spring is all about resetting—both our home and our schedule. It really is a time for a fresh start. The flowers begin to bloom, the sun stays out a little longer and maybe, just maybe, we crack open the windows when the pollen isn’t bad. Now the clutter I’ve been ignoring since the beginning of […]

We all go through seasons where it feels like one hard day follows another, and we wonder when things will shift. Even the moms who seem to have it all together have their moments. Whether it’s homeschooling chaos, parenting stress, business overwhelm, or just a rough week filled with deadlines, it’s easy to carry that […]

Being a mom isn’t always easy, some days it can be easy and other days it can be really hard. Add in running a business and it can be so overwhelming and feel even harder to find balance. Between managing household responsibilities, taking care of your family and growing a business, it’s easy to be […]

When I first started meal planning, it was so overwhelming. The first few weeks, I was ready to quit, but I truly believed meal planning could help us so much. So, I kept trying different things until I finally figured out what worked and what didn’t. I learned that with the right strategies, meal planning […]

Isn’t life is full of surprises—some good, some challenging and some that completely throw us off track. One minute everything is going great and the next minute something gets thrown at you. In the past two weeks, sickness hit our home hard—between the kids and me, I took the brunt of the sickness. This was […]

Lately, I’ve been asked how I do it all—working out in the morning, homeschooling three kids, running a business and keeping our home maintained. Honestly, most days I feel like a juggler, keeping multiple balls in the air, hoping that if I drop one, it won’t be the one that makes everything come crashing down. […]
