| The Key to Becoming a Happier, Calmer Mom | 07 May 2026 | 00:12:34 | |
When we try to control our children's behavior, it usually results in anger, yelling, and probably some guilt. The truth is, we can't control their behavior, but we can teach and lead them to proper behavior. In this episode, I talk about the five virtues that we need to teach our children so they are happy and cooperative, and so that our home is peaceful and joyful - all of which will contribute to our becoming a happy, calm mom. My program, "Virtue-Based Parenting" is now open for enrollment until May 9th. Check out the details HERE. It is THE perfect Mother's Day gift to give yourself!

| Marriage and Sacrifice | 19 Feb 2026 | 00:26:43 | |
As we begin the season of Lent, let's look at how we live our lives in our marriage and in our motherhood. Our ordinary life is the perfect vehicle to embrace the goal of Lent, which is conversion. As wives and mothers, our days are filled with opportunities to convert our heart, mind, and body to God. Do we recognize those opportunities, and do we take up our cross daily to follow Jesus or do we ignore the opportunity to make our everyday holy? I also mention in this episode the opportunity to connect with me through 1:1 coaching. For more information, CLICK HERE.

| Protecting Our Innocence | 26 Oct 2023 | 00:26:25 | |
In this episode, I talk about the importance of protecting our child's innocence, but I begin with thoughts on why it is important to protect our own innocence! Do you want a home full of joy, beauty and Truth? It begins with taking from the world what you need, and then becoming very intentional about what you don't take in.

| How to Help Your Child Have a Good Self-Image | 12 Oct 2023 | 00:23:22 | |
Self-Image and self-esteem go hand in hand. Typically, a child with low self-esteem (how they feel about themselves) struggles because of a poor self-image (how they think about themselves). Check out this episode to identify poor self-esteem in your child and how you can nurture them to adopt a good self-image.

| The Cost of Low Expectations | 21 Sep 2023 | 00:14:51 | |
The secret to happiness is low expectations. So says pop culture. If you have low expectations you won't be disappointed or sad or feel any other kind of negative feelings. Is that really the life we want? In this episode I speak about the true cost of having low expectations - cost to ourselves, our relationships, our children and the goals and dreams we have for our life.

| The Devil in Our Midst | 07 Sep 2023 | 00:08:38 | |
We won't see the devil in red tights, horns, and breathing fire but he's in our midst and we have to be awake, aware and strong in our fight against him! Nothing would make him happier than for your family to fall apart. Listen to this episode to find the ways he quietly enters our lives, and learn how to live in God's peace.

| Children and Chores - More than Just Cleaning | 12 Feb 2026 | 00:29:57 | |
Giving children chores is more than just teaching them to contribute to the care of the home - although, that's an important lesson for them to learn. Chores help them develop virtues like orderliness, patience, fortitude, generosity, and so many more. In this episode, I talk about the Faith & Family Project Membership - a monthly teaching and coaching membership for women to educate and support them in living their vocation to marriage and motherhood. I teach on the the hot topics of the four pillars of our life: marriage, parenting, home management, faith/mindset, and self-care.

| Children and Chores | 24 Aug 2023 | 00:21:38 | |
This isn’t just about keeping your house clean; it’s about forming the human spirit in virtue. The chores are simply the vehicle for deeper more important lessons and growth- Why is clearing the table or sweeping the floor so important to child’s well-being? One reason is that children feel competent when they do their chores. They feel capable. When we see it that way, we can see the importance of the mission. It is not optional. You will be letting your children down if you don’t teach them these skills. Check out my free resources on marriage, parenting, home management, and faith life/mindset at janetquinlan.com | |||
| What is God Asking of You? | 17 Aug 2023 | 00:12:17 | |
Why do we feel unfulfilled? Maybe it’s because we’re not all in - where we are isn’t where God wants us. Or maybe we’re not all in because where God wants us isn’t where we want to be. And rather than asking the question, “What does God want of me?” we stay stuck in the feeling of unfulfilled. We feel unfulfilled because we haven’t embraced God’s plan for us. We’ve tried to create our own plan. We don’t need to have a plan – God has the plan for you.

| Being Busy | 03 Aug 2023 | 00:17:26 | |
We all complain that we're so busy. And there are a growing number of experts who are in agreement that parents with good intentions are creating a generation of stressed, anxious kids thanks in part to their addiction to busyness and – you guessed it – the stresses and anxieties that come with it.

| Detachment | 27 Jul 2023 | 00:19:59 | |
When we are attached to something, we have an emotional investment to it or to an outcome. We give away our emotional control to circumstances that either align with our attachment or misalign with our attachment. Learn in this episode how important and life-changing it is to detach from our expectations and the truly unimportant things in our life.

| Creating Boundaries | 22 Jun 2023 | 00:22:43 | |
Many people think that a boundary is a way of controlling someone else. But that’s not really what a boundary does. We can never control other people’s actions, feelings, or thoughts. But we can set up requests or boundaries that if not honored there will be consequences on our part. When we have strong boundaries in place, we honor who we are and how we will be treated.

| Faith & Family Project, Putting Your Husband First | 05 Feb 2026 | 00:30:47 | |
Before the children, before the house, before everything else except God, our husband should be our first priority. We often focus on the needs of our children which we perceive as always urgent and important, and we sometimes neglect our spouse in the process of fulfilling our children's needs. When we put our spouse 1st, the order of the family is as it should be and together we build our family life.

| The Dangers of Love Languages | 08 Jun 2023 | 00:22:00 | |
Love Languages are ways in which we express our love for our spouse and ways we like to receive love from our spouse. But, very often, our love language is not the same. Although the concept of love languages is an excellent tool to grow in a relationship, we have to be careful that we don't use them against our spouse and our relationship.

| It's the Little Things That Add Up | 27 Apr 2023 | 00:13:50 | |
I think we’re socialized to believe that if we can just “find the right” diet, the best school for our children, the “best” cleaning routine, the perfect date nights with our husband, then all will be well or as good as can be expected.
But the truth of life is that it’s in the little things of each day that we create the life we have. What is really important to you? Check out my free resources on marriage, parenting, home management, and faith life/mindset at janetquinlan.com | |||

Have you ever considered that you have a mission from God to be useful, blaze a trail, and shine forth with your faith and your love? That's exactly what we're called in this mission of marriage and motherhood. In today's episode, I talk about the foundation of our lives as wives/mothers - embracing our mission in our own little part of the world to change the world! My membership, "The Faith & Family Project", is a place that supports you in your mission. We focus on the four pillars of our life: marriage, parenting, home management, and faith/mindset/self-care.

| Are You Raising an Addict? | 16 Mar 2023 | 00:19:48 | |
The world tells us the lie that we can achieve happiness and pleasure all the time. And so when we feel uncomfortable or negative emotions, we quickly jump to something that will distract us or push away the negative emotions. We also do this to our children, teaching them how to cope with negative feelings by using something else to distract them rather than feeling the negative feelings.

| Prioritizing Your Marriage | 02 Feb 2023 | 00:09:33 | |
February is all about hearts, candy, flowers, and romance. Suddenly, 1 day a year, we prioritize our marriage and pay attention to our spouse or we don’t, and if we’re the spouse who didn’t get the card and flowers on the 14th, we feel unimportant and unloved. This episode looks into the idea of prioritizing our marriage EVERY day. Check out my free resources on marriage, parenting, home management, and faith life/mindset at janetquinlan.com | |||

| Why a Mom's Self-Image Matters | 15 Jan 2026 | 00:20:34 | |
Join the Faith & Family Experience: Embrace Your Motherhod Mission. Click HERE for more info! The most important thing about your parenting may not be what you’re doing—but who you believe you are while you’re doing it. In this podcast I talk a lot about the what - what you’re doing in your marriage, how you parent, and how you keep your home. We’re all very comfortable about talking about the how to do things. But this quote struck me because at the core of whether we’re successful in what we do is who we believe we are as we’re doing it – our mom self-image. What is self-image? Self-image refers to the way you see yourself in relation to the world around you. This episode talks about how important our "mom self-image" is in the way we parent and the satisfaction of our lives.
