198 | How to Stay Flexible with Meal Planning When Your Week Doesn't Go as Planned07 Aug 202500:20:59

I’m sure we all know the saying…

“If you want to make God laugh, show him your plans.”

No matter how much we try to take control of our routines, life happens and plans will get derailed. It’s inevitable. It took me a long time to realize that just because a plan doesn’t go as planned, it doesn’t always mean we should throw our hands up and let go of the rest. We simply need to adjust.

When it comes to meal planning, life often throws us curve balls. The chicken isn’t fully thawed, company stops by, we randomly decide to go out on a date instead of making dinner at home, friends call with an invitation to their place…a lot of things can throw our meal planning routine off course. So let’s talk about how we can stay flexible with our meal planning routine when things don’t go as planned!

Let's get to it!

194 | 5 Simple Health Habits to Focus On When Feeling Overwhelmed24 Jul 202500:25:24

Have you ever noticed that when you feel overwhelmed, you stop taking care of yourself the way you should be? Then, because you aren’t taking care of yourself very well, you don’t feel your best and start slacking off which, in turn, puts more pressure on you because your responsibilities and to-do list starts piling up, causing you to feel even more overwhelmed? And since you feel overwhelmed, you stay in that rut. This is a nasty cycle I get in to and it’s tough to pull out of it!

When you feel this way, you might ask “what can I do?”

Today I want to share five simple health habits that I personally like to focus on when I start feeling overwhelmed. These simple habits always help me pull myself out of that rut so I can start feeling better. They help reduce the stress and overwhelm to keep me out of that not-so-healthy cycle and hopefully they can help you, too!

187 | Using a “Secondary Fun” Mentality to Get Stuff Done30 Jun 202500:10:23

My husband and I recently went on a vacation to the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. We started in Oregon and worked our way up to the North Cascades area in Washington. Our goal was to go on a number of hikes and during our first hike, my husband introduced me to something called “secondary fun”....it sounds odd to be combining my hiking story and organizing our life with routines, but it DOES make sense and I think you are really going to want to hear this.

185 | 4 Reasons You Need a Budget Routine23 Jun 202500:18:44

Have you thought about a budget routine and wondered whether it would be helpful or more stressful?

In our first years of marriage, my husband and I had been introduced to budgeting and had several people in our lives following Dave Ramsey’s 7 Baby Steps program to get out of debt. I always rejected the idea thinking that we didn’t have enough money to budget, it would be too restrictive, and it would cause more stress trying to keep it organized. And my husband felt the same way. We avoided it until our finances had become so stressful that my husband came to me one day, after years and years of struggling, and said, “I think we need to try it.” And for some reason, all my worries went away and I agreed to try.

We started budgeting in March 2018, very much in debt, but ready to dig ourselves out and try to grab hold of that financial freedom we were hearing about. We have learned a lot in the last seven years of budgeting and I want to share four reasons why I would recommend that everyone has a budget routine.

180 | Key Habit Shifts to Keep a Tidy Home05 Jun 202500:24:54

If you find that you clean your home and it immediately starts getting messy afterwards, you’re going to feel like it’s an endless divide of clean versus messy with no in-between. You will feel like you either need to be constantly cleaning in order for your home to feel presentable or you must simply accept living in a pigsty. But it doesn’t have to be one or the other. We can actually create small intentional habits (that also take minimal time) to keep our homes tidy throughout the day without too much effort. It doesn’t take much effort, but it does take intentionality. 

Today I want to share a few key habit shifts to focus on to keep a tidy home without feeling like you have to choose between constant cleaning or living in a mess.

Let's get to it!

Do you know the feeling of multiple thoughts rushing into your head at random times and thinking, “I need to remember that later”? Then we get busy and forget all about it until something triggers our memory, but then we can’t remember what we were supposed to remember!

In order to prevent this from happening, I love using Google Keep as a tool to keep me organized as those thoughts pop up! Today I want to share 20 list ideas to keep in Google Keep to keep you organized, too!

175 | 4 Questions to Stop and Ask When Feeling Busy and Overwhelmed19 May 202500:12:37

Do you ever feel so busy you can’t hardly think straight? Like you have so many thoughts in your head that you just need to write it all down and do a braindump just so you can stop thinking about it all? A lot of times when we are busy and overwhelmed, we feel this way, yet we don’t actually take the time to sit down and write it out….because we are too busy. It’s an endless cycle that needs to stop, but it won’t unless we make the time to do something different.

When we prioritize the time to stop and ask ourselves the right questions, we can begin to recognize where we need to make changes. And when we start making those changes, we can stop feeling overwhelmed and start feeling more relaxed and prepared.

So today I have four questions to stop and ask yourself any time you are feeling too busy or overwhelmed.

Do you ever feel like you are wasting time on the weekends when you could be spending them meal prepping? You might have big goals for the weekend to create a weekly menu, spend hours meal prepping, and have your entire week planned out and prepped so you are ready to tackle the week ahead.

172 | 6 Sinking Funds to Help Keep Your Monthly Budget on Track08 May 202500:25:14

One of the most frustrating things when budgeting is getting your plan for the month all set up and then an unexpected expense comes out of left field and throws the whole thing off. When we started budgeting years ago, this happened often. We weren’t sure how to handle it at first, but over time, we tested different things and eventually found something that worked well for us and we still do it to this day.

Today I want to share with you six of my favorite sinking funds that help keep our budget on track so that, even if unexpected expenses come up, we’ve got them covered and it won’t throw off our monthly plan! I hope they help you, too!

168 | FOCUS TIME + Tips to Get Back on Track After an Interruption24 Apr 202500:18:53

It seems like we are living in a world where the attention span for most of us continues to decline. When we are feeling overwhelmed with tasks, this lessened attention span makes it especially important to create “focus time” so that we can really dive into the task at hand with less distractions. Focus time blocks helps us be more productive, reduces mental strain, and at the same time helps give us time back in our days!

While we can have the best of intentions for our focus time, in reality, it’s inevitable that we will eventually get interrupted. It might be a phone call or text notification, your kiddos might need you, or a colleague pops into your office. When you get interrupted, it can be really hard to get back on track unless you have a plan.

So in this episode, let’s talk using focus time AND how to refocus when you’re thrown off course.

165 | Redefine Fitness and Create Small Habits for Success14 Apr 202500:18:00

When we are struggling with our fitness routine and can never seem to reach our goals, we often think that we are doing something wrong. Maybe we are. Maybe it IS our fault. But there is also a way that we can redefine our perception of what fitness actually is. When we can take a harder look at why we are “failing”, we can begin to see what is missing. Then, we can begin to build a routine that helps support our goals so we can finally start seeing results.

163 | Make Cleaning Easier! What You Need and Where to Keep It All07 Apr 202500:16:24

Do you ever wonder where half of the stuff in your cleaning closet came from? Maybe you open the cupboard under your kitchen sink and need to quickly shut it again so everything doesn’t come tumbling out. 

We DO need cleaning supplies to take care of our homes, but so many of us are keeping WAY more than we actually need. Part of decluttering also applies to cleaning supplies, so it’s a good time to take a look at what we have, what we need, and even a few ways we can make it convenient and easy for us to clean when it’s that time.

161 | Don’t Put it Down, Put it Away! | 4 Habits for Tidy Living31 Mar 202500:18:47

Are you ready to keep a tidy home? A lot of people are terrified that someone may “pop by” without warning like the good ol’ days because their house looks like a tornado came through it and they are embarrassed. We used to be this way! Our house would fall apart during the week and then we would spend half our weekend trying to put it back together by cleaning and catching up on laundry. We hadn’t created the habits we needed to maintain a tidy home throughout the week. Over the last several years, we have been creating the habits and routines we needed to maintain a tidy home without too much effort. Not only does the house stay “company ready” (or at least very close to it), but it also makes cleaning easier and it’s given us back our weekends!

So I hope you are ready because today I am sharing four habits for tidier living!

158 | Build a Mix & Match Wardrobe that Saves Time and Money | GUEST Shari Braendel w/ Style by Color20 Mar 202500:38:44

Today we are talking about simplifying a task we all do every day - getting dressed! If we get frustrated right away in the morning by just picking out an outfit, it can set our whole day off on the wrong foot. So let's make this routine easier!

Shari Braendel is joining me as a guest today. Shari is the founder of Style by Color, inspiring women to new levels of confidence. She has certified hundreds of women through the Style by Color Academy where she provides training for women wanting to become color analysis specialists and Christian image consultants.

During our conversation, Shari walked me through tips on figuring out which colors are best based on our personal features and we also discuss her online course program, the 27 Hangers Closet System. I had a chance to dive in and pick her brain with questions about how we can take a closet that feels overwhelming and make changes to simplify our selection while also creating a mix & match wardrobe that will save time each morning! Her strategy of shifting from impulse buying to building a purposeful wardrobe will help save money, too!

I’m excited to share this one and I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did!

Let's get to it!

155 | Building Daily Routines to Support a Stronger Faith Life and Live Intentionally | Radio Interview on RPL10 Mar 202500:24:34

Last week I had the opportunity to be interviewed LIVE on radio! This was my first time on radio and it was such a great experience so I thought it would be fun to share in case you wanted to take a listen. This show is called Real Presence Live presented by the Real Presence Radio Network. The hosts were our local parish priest, Fr. Richard Kunst and Cindy Jennings. (Fun fact: Fr. Rich also happens to own the largest papal artifact collection outside of Rome!) 

Our conversation focused on building daily routines to help support a stronger faith life and help you live more intentionally without the overwhelm. Heads up - since it was recorded live, you will notice a few odd pauses where there were originally breaks for commercials. :) 

Enough explanation, let’s get to the interview!
