The podcast for Catholic moms yearning to hear the voice of God through all the clutter, money struggles and mindset issues of day to day life.

Do you want more money, less clutter, a peaceful home and the courage to do what God is really calling you to do? He brought you here for a reason. Welcome, my friend.

Are you tired of moving clutter from place to place? Are you constantly yelling at or nagging other people to move their clutter? Are you too tired from tidying to actually clean? Do you make decent money but always feel broke or wonder where all the money went each month? Do you and your spouse fight about money or ignore the topic of money all together? Do you wish you could enjoy your money now while also saving for the future?

Would you sell your soul for one dinner that everyone in your family eats without complaint? Bonus if it’s a healthy meal! Do you feel like there has to be more to life than just cooking, cleaning, paying the bills and feeling unappreciated on a daily basis? Do you feel a tugging at your heart that you can’t quite explain? Is the noise of life drowning out the voice of God?

In this podcast, you will learn how to manage your money, declutter, meal plan, and implement routines while developing a growth mindset so you can run your home efficiently. With your home practically running itself, you’ll clear the clutter to more clearly hear God’s voice.

Hi, I’m Gina Morton, wife, mom of four living kids and one deceased child. A professional declutter, budgeting and mindset coach, Catholic, philanthropist, and cheerleader to all.

After 13 years as a stay at home mom and with my youngest child in school full time, I found myself yearning for more. My home practically ran itself and after so many years of penny-pinching, I knew how to budget and still enjoy the good life. My business, Tight Ship Mama, was born out of my desire to help other women declutter, manage their money, meal plan and implement routines so their homes could run just as smoothly. Except, I kept hearing women say they needed more. That’s when I realized, we needed to not just clear clutter and debt, we needed to create space for God.

When we put God in charge of our home, family, finances and mindset, we begin to see that His dream for our life is so much bigger than ours. When we learn to hear Him, truly listen and take action, our lives become more abundant than we could ever imagine. Through prayer, actionable baby steps and mindset work, we will step into the women God has created us to be.

This podcast was created for the Catholic woman who is ready to grow in her faith and stop playing small! If you’re ready to prune away all the clutter standing between you and the woman God has called you to be, you are in the right place. Grab your pruning shears...it’s time to prosper!

    220. 5 Minute Declutter With Me...Birdhouses, Birdfeeders and Bird Food

    Is the clutter in your home so overwhelming you don't know where to begin? Or you do begin and quickly make a bigger mess, get frustrated and give up? Are you waiting for motivation to strike and THEN you'll get it together?  
     Motivation is not going to strike, so STOP waiting for it!  Just get started and guess, what? Momentum will kick in and help you finish the job.  When we look at the big picture, it's easy to get overwhelmed and stay stuck.  In these Saturday morning episodes, I lead you through one very small area of your home to declutter for just 5 minutes.  You won't pull everything out and make a bigger mess, you'll just handle a very small section at a time.  Week after week and little by little, your home will begin to feel lighter. You'll be able to freely open kitchen drawers and quickly find items.  Cleaning will become easier too because you won't be cleaning before you can actually clean.  5 minutes will make a difference! Set your prayer intention to unite your work with Him, pop in this podcast, and set your reward.  Let's get started

An Old Friend

I love this podcast. It’s like being with an old cherished friend. She tells you the truth, encourages you, and lifts your spirits. She helps you become a better person and gives words of wisdom no matter what season of life you are in.

TDHNeal ,

So good!

I found this podcast while looking for something to help improve my money mindset. I’m also all about decluttering and recently started staying home with my kids. This is the exact podcast I needed!

coleenmarie ,

Get closer to God and your goals at the same time!

Meet your new BFF, Gina. She will help you get closer to God and your goals at the same time! Gina is relatable, practical, authentic and the friend you didn’t know you needed. My favorite episode is The Ladies of the 2023 Lenten Accountability Group. Loved that Coleen! We need more Coleen on the podcast! Let’s hang with her on the Jersey Shore! (Full disclosure, I am Coleen.)
