Welcome to the Love Your People Well Podcast! Every week here on the show, you’ll get biblical encouragement, gospel hope, and practical tips from my work as a marriage and family therapist and my own home life as a mom of 4 littles.  Every mom can struggle with feeling distracted and discouraged. We can start to feel like we’re drowning in all the important things we want to do. But every mom also wants to ENJOY her family. You want to find purpose in your motherhood. You want a happy marriage, quality family time, and a close family bond. You want more time with Jesus, more self care, and more joy during the hard seasons. It is my prayer that you will find that here.  Take a deep breath, friend, and listen in for a few minutes today. You’ll get tips, you’ll get encouragement, and most of all, you’ll get God’s Word and the peace, joy, and purpose that He offers you in this crazy journey of Christian family life.

    271 // How To Stop Negative Thinking And Change Direction

    Get biblical help for those big emotions with the Keep Your Cool, Mama 40-day devotional.   Episode 271 // Getting stuck in a pattern of negative thinking is never helpful. It doesn’t feel good, and it doesn’t help us love our husbands and kids well. But, it’s a really common struggle!   Thankfully, like most areas of life, God has hope for us. There are practical action steps that can help us break this cycle of negative thinking and start fixing our minds and hearts on the things above, where Christ is (Colossians 3). As the Lord works in us, He purifies us. Helps us. Changes us.   Today, I want to share 8 real-life tips that I’ve found so helpful with folks in the counseling room. There’s no magic wand here, but there is the grace and power of God to change your life. And for many of us, that starts inside our own thought life.   Dive in with me, friend.   hugs & blessings, Jess   RESOURCES FOR YOU   FREE: Build your own habit of Bible reading and prayer with my FREE 45-day Holy Habits: Bible and Prayer Guide: LoveYourPeopleWell.com/Holy-Habits     DEVOTIONAL: Get biblical help for those big emotions with the Keep Your Cool, Mama 40-day devotional.   RELATED ON THE PODCAST: God’s Promise, Peace, and Presence In Your Anxiety (EP 134)   RELATED ON THE BLOG: 13 Secret Weapons For How To Stop Negative Overthinking   GET MORE & SUPPORT THE SHOW   Support the show on Patreon for just a few dollars a month, and grab access to our 2025 perk of daily(ish) devotionals!    Please leave a 5-star review and share the link to this episode with a friend who needs encouragement today!   FIND EXACTLY THE RESOURCE YOU NEED: Faith | Marriage | Parenting | Emotions | Communication | Home & Family | Freebies | Devotionals | Blog | Pinterest   DISCLAIMERS    I am a licensed therapist in South Carolina, but this podcast is not therapy.

    Find biblical joy during hard seasons of motherhood with the Joy In The Journey 40-day Devotional   Episode 267 // I love my kids. I love my husband. I love my family. But let’s be real… I also love some “me time” when I’m able to get it.    Lots of moms feel guilty about wanting, needing, or enjoying some alone time.

It will encourage and rejuvenate you for continuing to pour out and love your people well.    Today, let’s look at the value of “me time” along with some reality checks and realistic ideas for how we should use that time. How do we make it valuable? I’ll share some overall principles along with some everyday tips that help me and the women I work with in counseling.    Join me, friend!

    Build your own daily devotional time with the FREE Holy Habits 45-Day Bible and Prayer Guide.   Episode 266 // Life is always changing. But the Bible is not.   Scripture never changes!

And there is a biblical picture of what happy, healthy, and holy mothering looks like.   Join me today to dive into 6 Scriptures that I have found so helpful over the years.

    Grab the FREE E-book - Building Your Mom Toolbox: Get Your Family Out Of The Rut And Reconnect   Episode 265 // We’re entering the fall season. For most of us moms, that means new family routines, and getting back to “regular life.” This is not only the perfect time to consider tweaking and strengthening some family rhythms, but also the time when you might be feeling the itch for something to change.   That itch might actually be a call from the Holy Spirit.   When you feel like things are a little off track - take a pause, and do something about it!    When you are entering a new season or a new phase of family life - take a pause, and approach it intentionally!   We always want the Lord to speak and to show us the path forward. But sometimes, we’re so busy and life is so loud that we miss what He’s saying.   So when you feel that nudge, take it seriously. I want to give you some ideas today for HOW to do that, so you can enter this next season of family life STRONG - happy, healthy, and holy.   Join me today for some biblical encouragement and practical ideas for this season - let’s jump in.   hugs & blessings, Jess   RESOURCES FOR YOU   FREE: Building Your Mom Toolbox E-book: Get Your Family Out Of The Rut And Reconnect   DEVOTIONAL: Find a devotional to help with YOUR family’s unique needs   RELATED ON THE PODCAST: A Season of Stress: 10 Encouragements To Find Light At The End Of The Tunnel (EP 238)   RELATED ON THE BLOG: Learning How To Trust God Completely   GET MORE & SUPPORT THE SHOW   Support the show on Patreon for just a few dollars a month, and grab access to our 2025 perk of daily(ish) devotionals!    Please leave a 5-star review and share the link to this episode with a friend who needs encouragement today!   FIND EXACTLY THE RESOURCE YOU NEED: Faith | Marriage | Parenting | Emotions | Communication | Home & Family | Freebies | Devotionals | Blog | Pinterest   DISCLAIMERS    I am a licensed therapist in South Carolina, but this podcast is not therapy.
