    Ep. 118: Summer Break Doesn’t Mean No Structure: Real Strategies for Busy Moms

    Summer break is here, but let’s be real, mama , it’s not just a break, it’s a setup. If we’re not intentional, our kids can fall into habits that are hard to break, too much screen time, no structure, and days filled with just “passing time.” And while rest is important, idle time without direction can lead to lost learning, poor habits, and unnecessary exposure. In this episode of the Pursue HER Podcast, we’re having a real conversation about summer learning loss, idle kids, and why structure still matters, even when school is out. And listen, this is not about being the perfect mom.This is for the mom who is working, managing a household, and trying to figure it all out without a big budget or a full summer plan. I’m giving you practical, affordable, and realistic strategies to help your kids stay engaged, continue learning, and actually grow this summer. Because your kids don’t just need a break,  they need direction. 💡 Stay Connected with Kelley: 🎥 Watch this chat (and others) on YouTube at  https://www.youtube.com/@KelleyJBell 📥 Download Resources: Marriage Check In: https://www.kelleyjbell.com/product-page/the-marriage-check-in-worksheet Interested in a Growth Session for your student? https://kelleyjbell.kit.com/036185e8d5  🌐 Visit my website: www.kelleyjbell.com  📲 Follow me on Instagram: @KelleyJBell or @PursueHERPodcast  Let’s Continue the Conversation!📩 Have a question or topic suggestion?

    Ep 117 : He’s Not the Man I Married… Now What?

    Have you ever thought, “This is not the man I married…”? In this episode of the Pursue HER Podcast, we’re talking about what happens when your husband changes after marriage. If you’re feeling disconnected, confused, or wondering why your husband isn’t the same, this conversation is for you. We’re unpacking red flags you may have missed, patterns that haven’t changed, and what to do when affection, communication, or effort fades. But most importantly, we’re bringing it back to this: invite God in. You may not have included Him before, but it’s not too late now. God will give you the wisdom, peace, and strategy you need for your next steps. Important: If you are experiencing any form of abuse, seek help from both trusted professionals and local resources immediately. You are not called to stay in harm’s way. Sis, you don’t have to navigate this alone. God has the strategy. 💡 Stay Connected with Kelley: 🎥 Watch this chat (and others) on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@KelleyJBell ✨ Introductory Call - Ready to gain clarity, strategy, and direction for what’s next?

    Ep. 116: More Than a Pastor’s Wife: Identity, Purpose, and Calling

    What does it really mean to be a pastor’s wife? Many people see the title, the smile, and the Sunday presence. But behind the scenes, there is often a woman navigating expectations, supporting ministry, and still trying to walk fully in the calling God placed on her own life. In this episode of the Pursue HER Podcast, Kelley sits down with a pastor’s wife, Kristi Owens, who is also a mentor and coach to women. Together they have an honest conversation about the realities of ministry life, the pressures people don’t always see, and the journey of embracing purpose beyond a title. This episode pulls back the curtain on what it looks like to serve faithfully while protecting your identity, your marriage, and your personal calling. If you’ve ever wondered what life is really like for a pastor’s wife or if you are a woman trying to balance ministry, marriage, and purpose, this conversation will encourage you.
