Psalm 34: “Trust in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart”
January Donovan is a force of nature and walking proof of what we can accomplish when we undertake God’s invitation to a massive dream. She’s the founder of the highly successful Woman School and Wholeness School, wife, and mom of eight kids. She was so impactful that in the week since we recorded, I’m seeing enormous fruits in my life: I finally got motivated to hire an assistant so I can put out more content regularly, I’m cranking out a huge and exciting project (that’ll be announced in the coming months) with zero self-doubt, AND I’m running my household with more discipline. All that from just one conversation, and I can’t wait to hear the effects of our conversation in your life! Whether you consider yourself a dreamer or a practical person, you’ll gain irreplaceable wisdom from January.

"Why doesn't God help me in my suffering? Why does he feel farther away right at the time when I need to feel him closest? Why is he rejecting me?"
These are the questions I found myself asking in 2023 when beset by my son's extended health crisis: I barely slept more than an hour at a time for FIVE MONTHS. I quickly discovered why sleep deprivation has been used as a form of torture! In this difficult season I wrestled with big questions about what God's provision through hardship means. I hope this episode can support and encourage anyone who needs it today.

How do you handle the emotional rollercoaster when God appears to open and then almost immediately shut a door? Mary Clare had this question and I was so glad she asked! In this episode I'll be sharing how I handle the ups and downs, as well as the perfect parenting principle God uses on us, for our good. (Because TBH I need to be parented :) )

I've not yet talked about homeschooling on my show yet, but today's the day! I'm not a veteran homeschool mom by any means, but I've done enough to make a plan to tackle my 3 biggest pain points in homeschooling. They are:
Keeping patience when things get frustrating
What to do with your littles while you're doing schoolwork with your bigs
Keeping a tidy (enough) house to stay sane when everyone is home all day
