What Can I Really Do as a Christian Wife and Mom to Be a Change in This World?

In this heartfelt episode, I open up about the question I’ve been wrestling with: What can I actually do — as a wife, a mom, and a follower of Christ — to make a difference in this world? Instead of getting overwhelmed by the noise, I take a step back to explore what real change looks like when it starts in our own homes, hearts, and daily choices. We’ll dive into: 🌿 Why prayer is the first and most powerful step to lasting change. 🏡 How creating a home where we confess sin and give God the glory cultivates humility and gratitude. ✨ Ways to lower the toxic load — not just in what we buy, but also in what we consume through TV, media, and phone use. 🙌 The importance of gathering with the church family and how boldness in faith can ripple into the wider world. 💡 Practical steps to align daily routines with Christlike values — from what we purchase, to how we spend time, to the atmosphere we set in our homes. Why this matters: The world is searching for light, hope, and authenticity. As Christian wives and moms, we don’t need to do everything — but we are called to live faithfully in the spaces God has entrusted to us. When we do, our obedience creates change that extends beyond our households and into our communities. Scriptures for encouragement: Philippians 4:6–7, Joshua 24:15, 1 Peter 3:15 GET THE PEACEFUL HOME PLAN FREE HERE Takeaway Challenge: This week, choose one area — prayer, gratitude, lowering toxic load, limiting media, or boldness in faith — and ask God to help you take one small, consistent step.

The Invisible Mental Load of Homemakers: Why It’s So Heavy and How to Lighten It Have you ever felt like your brain never switches off? From remembering dentist appointments, planning meals, keeping track of school schedules, to making sure the laundry detergent doesn’t run out—it’s a lot. This ongoing juggling act is what experts call the mental load, and for homemakers, it can feel overwhelming and unrelenting. In this episode, we dive into: What the mental load really is (and why it goes far beyond housework). Why homemakers often feel like the default “family manager.” The emotional weight of being the one who anticipates, plans, and organizes for everyone. Practical ways to notice, name, and begin redistributing the load. ✨ Free Resource for You ✨ To support you on this journey, I’ve created the Whole You Planning Tool—a simple but powerful guide to help you do a systems check for yourself and each family member.

📣📣📣FIND PURPOSE AND PEACE!  THE PURPOSE PURSUIT IS ONLY $19 for this week only!!!    📣📣📣📣 Raising Families of Grace: Teaching True Repentance and Reconciliation What if the most powerful lesson you could teach your children isn’t about achievement, but about repentance? In this episode, we dive into what true, gospel-centered repentance looks like in everyday family life—especially with children, teens, and within marriage. Repentance isn’t just about saying sorry; it’s about turning toward God’s grace and letting Him restore what’s been broken. We’ll explore: What repentance really is (and what it isn’t). How parents can model repentance for kids and teens. Why repentance builds trust, softens hearts, and heals relationships. The role of repentance in marriage—moving from hurt to reconciliation. How to create a family culture rooted in humility, forgiveness, and grace. If you’ve ever felt the weight of mistakes as a parent, struggled with conflict in marriage, or wanted to raise kids who know the freedom of grace, this episode is for you. Repentance isn’t about perfection—it’s about pointing your family to the perfect love of Jesus. __________________________________________________________________ Get my favorite overwhelm essential oil hacks here:  Join our FACEBOOK COMMUNITY for more support and encouragement to refill daily with faith, self care, health, wellness and essential oil education!

Let’s talk about how to use summer as your soft reset — with nourishing self-care, low-pressure fun with your kids, and intentional choices that lighten the load (without adding a giant to-do list). I’m sharing practical swaps that shift the pace and energy of your summer — from citrus oils in the diffuser to lift your mood, to choosing music that sets the tone for calm or connection.
