If you find yourself constantly saying that you're so busy but aren’t really feeling productive and getting things you want done, it may be time to make a conscious change. 

Ask yourself these 3 questions to determine if your choices will make you feel busy or productive.

Essential: WHY- Is this worth my time?

Enhancement: HOW- How will this serve me, my family, and God? 

Extra: WHAT- What can I do to simplify the process?

Since these are some pretty thoughtful questions, I found some scriptural references for backup. The verses are listed below. 

Highlights from this episode:

(03:13) 3 simple steps

(07:01) Is this really worth your time?

(10:42) Serving your family, your God and yourself

(15:29) Break things down using The 1% Rule

(21:08) Outsourcing to God is free

(24:43) Comparison is the thief of joy

Mentioned on this episode:

Ep 1: The 3 E’s Philosophy 

Ep 60: Ask For Help

Ep 98: The 1% Rule

Ep 143 : Overscheduled to a Fault

Matthew 11:28

Ecclesiastes 4:6

Psalm 127:2

Luke 9:25

Matthew 6:34

Jeremiah 42:3

Proverbs 21:5

I hope this episode offers some clarity around intentionally choosing to rest, serve, and be more productive versus busy. I’m wishing you abundant blessings in the year ahead!

The rockstar Mom and CEO of Claris Health, Talitha Phillips, is sharing her story and her mission to help other moms on this week’s episode! 

I’m overjoyed to have this dream guest on my podcast, especially during the month of May when we are celebrating moms!! Literally, I wrote down in my journal over a year ago her name as an amazing future guest and now she’s here, talking about the loving way Claris came into her life to help her deal with a difficult decision, and how God opened up the doors 20 years ago to become a leader within this great organization.  

I’ve been a big fan of the work Talitha and the team at Claris Health do to serve the community, and more specifically moms, as they navigate pregnancy, before, during, and after so that families feel supported and loved every step of the way. 

They provide diapers and wipes, parenting classes, pregnancy education and prevention, a mobile medical service for those without transportation, support through the adoption process, counseling around abortion, bible studies, and so much more. 

I’m honored to know her and support this wonderful mission! 

Highlights from this episode:

{3:11} Introduction to Talitha 

{9:59} How Talitha started her business

{16:38} How the work became Talitha's calling

{19:45} The mobile services that Claris offers

{25:31} How you can support the work of Claris and organizations closer to home

In May we celebrate Moms and this month on the podcast will be all about them! Most days we are crushing this Mom thing (give yourself more credit if you think you aren’t), and on the days that feel too overwhelming, we have to remember to ask for help! 

On this episode I got real about the bad day I was having. I was emotional (can you hear it in my voice??), frustrated, and at a loss for what to do about some parenting stuff that kept coming up. 

As a busy, working Mom of littles, I have to remind myself that I don’t have to have it all figured out and that it totally takes a village! The struggle is real some days, and we don’t have to be everything to everyone. Instead, we can ask for help. We can tap into all the resources around us like doctors, teachers, coaches, pastors, other moms, and my favorite source of strength...God. Sometimes I’m praying hourly. How about you? 

Highlights from this episode:

{6:46} There's no handbook for being a mom

{9:18} It's ok to not have it all figured out

{11:35} What about outside help?

{15:48} A celebration of moms

{18:15} Permission to ask for help

Upcoming episodes in May with some outstanding Mom guests!

On the final episode of the April Spring Cleaning Series, I’m talking about getting your bathroom organized and going back to make sure some of the organization you may have put in before is still working for you. 

As a busy mom of littles I know that bathrooms can become a high traffic area in your home that can quickly become overrun with bathtub toys, everyone’s toothbrushes and towels, unused travel-sized products from 6 years ago, misplaced clothes on the floor, and certainly the oddities that never belonged in a bathroom at all! 

When utilizing drawer dividers to contain your items, mounting helpful hooks, and maximizing the vertical space in the cabinets under your sink, you’ll have your bathroom countertops cleared of clutter for a more efficient and zen space. Heaven knows I’ve used it as an escape room some days too, so it needs to be serving us in more ways than just a bathroom! 

Highlights from this episode:

{3:14} Purging your bathroom

{6:11} Using white, wipeable containers in bathroom drawers

{10:14} Taking care of your hair brushes

{12:48} Using age appropriate organisers in your bathroom

{13:31} Encouraging kids to keep their bathroom space organized and clutter-free

{16:39} Acrylic tower organizers for under the sink area

{19:43} Your bathroom as an extension of the style in your home

To continue our Spring Cleaning Series this month, I’m talking about how to make our entryway a welcoming place for our guests and ourselves! 

It’s so easy to come into our home with our arms full of stuff like a stack of mail, keys, bags, sunglasses, groceries, work items, kid activities, coats, backpacks, and drop them on the floor or side table with the best of intentions of putting them away later. 

Suddenly your entryway becomes a dumping ground for everything you’ve used that day, plus the entire family’s shoes they’ve worn throughout the week. It looks more like a locker room that a tornado blew through than a great first impression that paints a picture of your inviting home. 

We can do better! In this episode, I talk about some simple and very effective ways to clear the clutter, use some best practices for keeping it looking tidy as you organize on autopilot, and add some style that represents you in your entryway and says, “Welcome!” 

Highlights from this episode:

{2:02} You are worth the time and investment of creating a warm and welcoming entryway

{3:32} Storing your shoes and using catch all baskets

{8:35} Storing other entryway items

{9:12} Creating routines for children when they come home from school

{10:56} Styling a small table for your entryway 

{11:41} How to create a bench space for your guests at your front door

{13:26} Getting your family on board with keeping your entryway organized

{15:08} Using artwork in your space

{17:16} How organizing this small space can have a big impact

{17:41} Making sure that clutter is not doing the talking for your home

This episode about clearing the clutter on our countertops kicks off the Spring Cleaning Series in April. This one is for anyone who thinks it’s time to up the organization in their home, not just busy Moms of littles.

Full disclosure: I hate cleaning. Yep! I can organize the heck out of your pantry, closet, or garage, but the actual cleaning part is not my fave. 

So this month, I’ll be first easing into spring cleaning from an organizer’s perspective, starting with our countertops that can easily be considered the catch-all for everything! Whether it’s the never-ending mail pile, the life-size kid artwork, the works in progress, the food-stained, extra appliances, or your makeup, yesterday’s laundry, and your child’s random collection of whatever they’ve picked up on walks recently, it’s time we cleared the clutter to see the blessings all around us! 

Don’t let that stuff get in the way of your creativity or your peace of mind. It’s time for a good purge, donation, and adding in the proper organization to beautifully contain the things you are keeping on your countertops! 

Highlights from this episode:

{2:42} Clearing the clutter to see the blessings God has for us

{4:32} How your items can become clutter if they haven't found a place in your home
