Are there days you feel so overwhelmed and tired because of all the busy?
Do you wish you just had more time to have intentional conversations and quality time?
Do you just want to know you have friends raising their family the same way?

In this podcast, you will find
Simple ways to create intentional moments
And continue laying your foundation of strong faith and family.
You will feel like YOU win and not the overwhelm.

My mission is to come alongside you
To keep your family
-and mine-
Strong and Christ-centered.
We will do it together sharing the same family vision to have
Tools for meaningful communication
Faith for today’s world
Balance in the day to day
A Strong foundation of values
And a Circle of Support

If you’re ready to feel like you DO have enough time
to build all the values that you constantly pray your family will stand on,
Then let us cheer you on.

I’m Jennifer. Wife to my high school sweetheart, Mom of four, Daughter of the King, and lover of every Kentucky sunset sky.
Years ago, when our oldest was 8, we saw that we were about to head down your same road.
The one of overwhelm from work-home balance,
busy kids’ activities,
and not enough time.
Also, like you, we had a clear vision of how we want to raise the family God entrusted to us.
And we wanted no regrets.
We figured out a way to keep our family strong in our faith
Make family time a priority
And create deep connection through solid communication.
Even among all the busy.
The answer is to gather MOMENTS
(In the time we already have.)
And we want to have your back on this journey.
We want to watch you thrive in your values and faith
in a world that many times wants to tell us otherwise.
If you’re ready for time to slow down
Intentional moments to overflow
And all of this to feel easy in your real life
Then come along friend,
Let’s grow.

    207 \\ Togather Armor: Do You Listen to UNDERSTAND Or Listen to REPLY?

    207 \\ Togather Armor: Do You Listen to UNDERSTAND Or Listen to REPLY?

    We live in a world where we are CONSTANTLY distracted. We have hundreds of choices everyday as to where we place our attention and many times FACE-TO-FACE communication takes the back seat.
    Do you listen to UNDERSTAND or listen to REPLY? If we are not careful, they're going to find another part of the world to "understand" them. And many times that's going to lead down a wrong path with the gate being on the screen they hold in their hand.
    Let's listen to understand one another.

    206 \\ Guarding the Hearts, Minds, & Innocence of Our Children Against Technology. Consistency and Persistence. With CHRIS McKENNA, Protect Young Eyes Founder

    206 \\ Guarding the Hearts, Minds, & Innocence of Our Children Against Technology. Consistency and Persistence. With CHRIS McKENNA, Protect Young Eyes Founder

    "I believe in the sanctity of childhood." That's something that Chris says in today's episode and I know each of us can stand behind that. Parenting in the Digital Age may be one of the hardest tasks we are up against with raising our children. "We have children with children’s brains, children’s development and we put them inside a space that was made for adults and then we get upset when they act like children.
    "...These spaces were not designed for them in the first place, they are by nature exploitative. They are not protective. We have to hunt for protection. And that’s the part that’s so difficult and maddening. I want us to embrace what can be so good about technology, but never trust it for a minute. Never turn your back on it.” ~Chris McKenna, Founder and CEO Protect Young Eyes. 
    Let's get connected AND protected with Chris's guidance today.

    204 \\ Sick of the Worldly Values You Hear So Loudly? 3 Ways to Fight For Your Family Values At Home

    I'm sure we're both sick of the values we see out there that feel like they're being shoved into our homes and used as propaganda to minimize traditional family values. Well, the truth is, they're sticking around. And if we know that then we need a plan to control what we can control. That's our FAMILY VALUES. Here are three ways to fight for yours in your home and do it in a way that fits into your real life, feels easy, and feels like you can make some change where it matters most: in your four walls.
