    Ep 14: What’s Easier Right Now? Practicing Calm or a Clean House (+ The Toy System That Saved My Sanity)

    This episode is a true close-friends conversation. It starts with a very real mom moment (yes, my baby and a dishwasher pod… we’re all okay), and unfolds into the mindset shift that’s completely changed my relationship with my home. If you’ve ever felt stuck between wanting a clean house and wanting to stay calm, regulated, and kind to yourself, this one is for you. We’re talking about why messy people do mind mess, how shame sneaks into our homes, and the powerful question that puts control back in your hands: what’s easier right now—practicing calm in the chaos, or keeping up with it? I’m also sharing the toy system that finally worked for us. Not a rotation, not perfection, not becoming the “toy manager of the household,” but simple location-based boundaries that brought real relief and made cleanup feel lighter. This is a VlogPod episode, so you’ll hear real life in the background as I fold laundry, nurse babies, and talk through the mental and physical shifts that took over a year to build. If your house feels like the blister on an otherwise cute outfit, you’re not behind. You’re human. And I’m right here with you.

    Ep 13: Phrase of the Year, Morning Routines, and Why January Is a Little Dramatic

    January is dramatic. She’s hopeful, delusional, inspiring, exhausting, and somehow still here even when she feels like she should’ve ended two weeks ago. And honestly? We love her for it. In this episode, Ashleigh talks about why we don’t need to squish the part of us that wants to reinvent, refresh, and start new—even if we know it might only last a few hours. Wanting things isn’t the problem. Burning ourselves out trying to deserve them is. This episode introduces Ashleigh’s phrase of the year: Name it to tame it. From emotional overwhelm to messy kitchens to snappy mom moments, she shares how simply naming what’s actually happening brings relief, clarity, and control. You’ll hear how color-coded “codes,” feelings wheels, and honest language can transform overwhelm into something manageable instead of something shameful. She also shares her “organized inner life” goal for 2026 and walks through her real-life morning routine menu system—not a rigid routine, but flexible options based on how much time, energy, and chaos the day begins with. This episode is about organizing your life without turning yourself into a robot, honoring your humanity, and letting January be dramatic without letting it run your nervous system.

    Ep 12: How to Practice Joy (Even When Life Feels Heavy) with Rachel Awtrey

    What does joy actually look like when life feels heavy, ordinary, or just plain exhausting? In this episode, I’m joined by author and podcast host Rachel Awtrey for an honest conversation about redefining joy in seasons that don’t feel particularly joyful — especially in motherhood, grief, and everyday life. We talk about why joy isn’t a personality trait or a fleeting feeling, but a skill you can practice, even in the middle of hard days. Rachel shares insights from her book Love Your Life (Even When You Don’t Like It All the Time), including how joy can be rebellious, why emotions need motion, and how small, tangible moments can become breadcrumbs of hope. We also get practical — talking about creating rhythms in your home that support joy, learning to work with your life instead of against it, and how asking “why” one more time can uncover what’s actually making things feel so hard. If you’re a mom in the thick of it, feeling stuck between loving your life and feeling overwhelmed by it, this episode is for you. ✨ Topics we cover: Why joy isn’t the same as happiness How to practice joy on regular, ordinary days Finding joy in the physical, tangible parts of life Why “choosing your hard” matters Creating a home that feels supportive, not suffocating 🎧 You can find Rachel and her book wherever books are sold, and follow her on Instagram for more encouragement.

    Ep 11: Leaving the House Without Losing Your Mind with Chandler Ashcraft

    What if leaving the house with little kids didn’t feel like a full-contact sport? In this episode, I’m joined by Chandler Ashcraft—better known as @chanwiththeboys and the founder of Moms Away—to talk about how to actually get out of the house with little ones without losing your mind, your wallet, or your sanity. We talk about the difference between kid-centric outings (think: playgrounds and play places) and family-centric outings (think: places that fill your cup, too), how to start small when leaving the house feels overwhelming, and why your house and laundry will always be “in the cycle” anyway. In this episode, we chat about: Why getting out of the house can be the most regulating thing you do as a mom The difference between kid-centric vs. family-centric outings—and why you need both Low-stakes ideas for leaving the house (including Chandler’s fenced-in tennis court hack) How to practice “trial runs” so you can build confidence instead of anxiety Simple packing tips: night-before prep, treating your car like a diaper bag, and lowering your standards What this all looks like for moms with ADHD, runners, multiple kids, and limited childcare The mindset shift that helped both of us stop waiting for a perfectly clean house before living our lives If your mental health is begging you to get out of the house—but the logistics and the diaper bag feel like too much—this one’s for you.

    Ep 9: Raising Kids Without Fear: How Faith, Science & Connection Work Together with Therapist Meaghan Hampton

    What would parenting look like if fear wasn’t running the show? Therapist Meaghan Hampton joins Ashleigh to talk about how faith and psychology beautifully overlap—helping parents shift from fear-based obedience to connection, co-regulation, and grace. Together they explore what it means to raise kids from a place of calm and curiosity instead of control, the difference between disobedience and dysregulation, and why the heart of Christ offers a gentler, more grounded lens for parenting. You’ll walk away with language for repair after you lose it, practical nervous system tools (like orienting and breath prayer), and permission to let go of the pressure to “get it all right.” It’s freeing, faith-filled, and deeply relatable—especially for moms who want to hold both truth and tenderness as they lead their families. Mentioned: Soul Care Circle (Substack), co-regulation PDFs, Big Feelings Book: Exploring Emotions TogetherPerfect for: Christian moms seeking to raise emotionally healthy, faith-anchored kids—without fear as the motivator.

    Ep 8: The Overlooked Command to Ease Your Mind: Notice the Birds, Observe the Flowers | WITH YOU

    In this With You episode, Ashleigh reflects on one of Jesus’s most overlooked commands: “Observe the birds, notice the flowers.” Through gentle storytelling and honest reflection, she explores how slowing down, paying attention, and getting outside can ease your mind and reconnect you to peace. In this week’s episode, Ashleigh unpacks what she calls her favorite (and most overlooked) Bible command: “Observe the birds, notice the flowers.” Drawing from Matthew 6 and her own “chronically indoorsy” life, she shares how the Divine—as a human—modeled a slower, more embodied kind of spirituality: one that starts with paying attention. From a backyard coffee break to walks through the Home Depot garden center, Ashleigh explores how practicing awareness—of nature, your body, your kids’ little details—can retrain anxiety, reconnect you to peace, and remind you that you’re cared for. In this episode: Why “notice the birds” is the most under-talked-about command of Jesus How burnout comes from disconnection, not just busyness A simple daily ritual to retrain your attention and calm your nervous system Why observing beauty is a form of prayer Perfect for:Moms, faith-curious listeners, and anyone craving stillness in motion.

    Ep 7: VLOG POD | My Fear of the Stomach Bug, Fun Facts & Making Friends

    In this week’s VLOG POD, I’m talking about something I’ve definitely avoided long enough — my fear of the stomach bug. 😅 I share how I’m finally working through it with my therapist and what that process is teaching me about anxiety, control, and motherhood. Then we lighten things up with a couple of fun facts (one involves nail polish, the other involves endangered crafts — who knew). To wrap things up, I get a little vulnerable about how tricky it can be to make friends as an adult & share one simple “non-hosting hosting” hack for anyone who wants community but doesn’t have the capacity to plan a full-blown gathering right now. It’s a mix of honesty, humor, and the kind of real-life stuff we’re all figuring out. Craft with me! Beginner Block Printing Kit!
