Ep. 70: The Opt-Out Family (Challenging Cultural Tech Norms for Our Kids with Erin Loechner.)
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to unplug from all “smart” devices and return to the simplicity of a landline and a knock on the screen door?
Erin Loechner brings her passion for educating families on ways to avoid common technological pitfalls, as well as her love of slow living to the show today for a fascinating conversation with someone truly willing to practice what she preaches.
Plus, I love the fact that she brings all of her stories and data back to God’s Word and His Truth.

Ep. 69: The Power of Family (A Chat with the Creators of Yeah, Baby Goods)
Join me as I chat with Brent and Katie Kruithof from Yeah, Baby Goods about a perspective shift that allowed them to view their home as the hub of their business endeavors and their spiritual pursuits.
We talk about entrepreneurship, stewardship, and what it looks like to include our kids in meaningful ways within our home.
You’ll be encouraged by their passion for hard work, family togetherness, and keeping the Lord as the center of it all.

Ep. 68: Becoming Homeschoolers (A Chat with Monica Swanson)
If you feel the call to homeschool and don’t know where to start, are on the fence, or just feel curious about the movement, you’ll want to listen to Monica and I chat about her new book, Becoming Homeschoolers.
We also chat about our mutual love for fitness + motherhood from the perspective of moms with older/graduated kids and encourage you in practical ways to stay the course.
I know this conversation will be a blessing to homeschoolers, but there’s plenty for all moms.

Ep. 67: Rhythms for Solo Parenting (Part 2)
This week, we chat solo parenting with older kids, adjusting expectations, and the art of transitioning back to a two-parent household whenever our husbands are home.
Plus, I give you a (perhaps) surprising perk to solo parenting at the end as a takeaway.
Enjoy!

Ep. 66: Rhythms for Solo-Parenting (Part 1)
One of the FAQs I receive weekly in DMs is: “How do you handle solo-parenting when your husband is gone?”
And while I know that everyone’s solo-parenting circumstances are different, there are some core principles that can help shift your mindset from “woe is me!” (been there) to “I’ve got this” (in Christ’s strength). Is so important to actively look for ways to thrive rather than simply survive!
I share some of the things that have helped me most in this episode, and I’ll talk more about ways the Lord has grown my maturity + resourcefulness in this area in part 2. Enjoy!

Ep. 65: A Mother’s Day Note of Encouragement
As we approach Mother’s Day (in the U.S.), I pray this brief episode will be an encouragement to stay the course for those who are in or for the long haul and a balm for those who are hurting this week.
You are in my prayers.
