    In this essential holiday episode, Jennifer tackles one of the most stressful aspects of gift-giving season: how to respond when your children ask for expensive things you can't afford. Through practical strategies and compassionate insight, she reveals how these moments aren't really about the toys at all—they're about emotional regulation, parenting triggers, and teaching children resilience through discomfort. This episode is for every mama who's felt the weight of comparison when other families buy expensive gifts, who's struggled with guilt around saying no to her children, or who's wondered how to teach kids the value of money without crushing their spirits. You'll discover why young children don't understand affordability, how to sit with your child's disappointment without fixing it, and why delaying gratification builds stronger, more resilient humans.

    2025/12/02
    In this conclusion to the three-part framework series, Jennifer welcomes back Lisa Michelle Jones to explore the third pillar: Calling. Moving beyond the pressure to "find your calling," this honest conversation reveals how your calling is already present in what you naturally love and do. Through vulnerable stories and practical wisdom, Jennifer and Lisa unpack how to recognize your inherent gifts, embrace your natural leadership style, and lead your family with freedom rather than formula. From childhood clues to present-day passions, discover how your calling isn't something distant to discover—it's already woven into who you are. This episode is for every mama who feels pressure to figure out her "big purpose," struggles with making her passions fit into motherhood, or wonders if her natural interests actually matter. You'll discover why your calling is already present in what you love, how childhood patterns reveal lifelong purpose, why comparison kills calling clarity, how to lead your family from your natural strengths, and what it means to trust what God has already equipped you with.

Her ability to weave together seemingly different interests—athletics and reading, structure and spontaneity, teaching and learning—makes her a relatable voice for mothers navigating their own multifaceted callings. Lisa's warmth and willingness to share both her struggles and victories offer hope to any mama trying to figure out how her natural gifts fit into the calling of motherhood.
