Hey Friend!

Have you ever started working on your routines, habits, home, or even your phone use with all the right intentions, but then felt like you were failing because you couldn’t do everything perfectly? Maybe you have an idea of how you think your life should look, and when you can’t keep up with it, you end up wanting to give up completely.

If this is you then friend grab your coffee and Bible, and let’s dive in! In today’s episode, we’re talking about what it looks like to live intentionally without turning intentional living into another standard you have to perfectly keep up with. We’ll have some practical conversations about routines, habits, your home, phone use, planning, and making choices that actually fit your life and your current season.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have a better understanding of the difference between being intentional and trying to be perfect, and hopefully you’ll feel a little more freedom to make changes without feeling like you have to do everything at once.

Today you will learn:

-The difference between intentionality and perfectionism

-How routines and habits can help you without becoming another thing to obsess over

-How to make your home and phone use more intentional in realistic ways

-Why your plans and routines don’t have to look perfect to be helpful

-How to make changes without completely starting over every time something doesn’t go according to plan

-How to look at your current season of life when deciding what systems and habits actually make sense

-Why doing something imperfectly is often better than waiting until you can do it perfectly

If today’s episode spoke to your heart, share it with a friend who needs the reminder that she can live intentionally without having a perfect life!

Hey Friend!

Have you ever gotten so focused on your habits and goals that your life starts revolving around getting everything done? Maybe you have your morning routine, your workout routine, your Bible time, your cleaning schedule, your goals, and your to-do list all figured out, but somehow you forgot to leave room to actually live.

If this is you then friend grab your coffee and Bible, and let’s dive in! Today is the final episode in our habit-building series, and we’re talking about something that is just as important as building good habits: balance. Habits are meant to help support your life, not become your entire life. We’re going to talk about leaving room for relationships, rest, spontaneity, hobbies, fun, and the things you didn’t plan for.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have a better understanding of why your routines need room to breathe and why a successful life isn’t just about how many habits you can keep up with or how much you can accomplish.

Today you will learn:

-Why having good habits doesn’t mean every moment of your day needs to be planned

-How habits and routines can become too much when accomplishments become the goal

-Why leaving white space in your schedule is important

-How to make room for relationships, rest, hobbies, fun, and unexpected moments

-Why your routines should serve your life instead of controlling it

-How to tell when you might need to simplify your routines

-Why you don’t have to accomplish something for your time to be valuable

-How to build a life that has structure while still leaving room to actually live it

As we close out this habit series, remember that the goal was never to become a person who does everything perfectly. The goal is to create rhythms that help you live more intentionally, make room for what matters, and still have the freedom to enjoy the life God has given you.

If today’s episode spoke to your heart, share it with a friend who needs a reminder that she doesn’t have to optimize every part of her life to live a meaningful one!

Rooted in Faith. Growing with Grace.

Hey Friend!

Have you ever had an idea for the perfect routine in your head, but when you actually try to do it, it just doesn’t work? Maybe you have a long list of things you want to fit into your morning or evening, but you’re not sure where to start or how to make it all flow together.

If this is you then friend grab your coffee and Bible, and let’s dive in! In today’s episode, we’re actually going to sit down and build a routine. We’ll talk about starting with anchor habits, building around the things you already do, and giving yourself a clear start and stop instead of letting your routine take over your whole day. We’ll also talk about writing your routine down on a piece of paper, testing it out, and making changes when something doesn’t work.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have a simple way to create a routine that actually fits into your life instead of just looking good on paper.

Today you will learn:

-How to build the rest of your routine around the habits you already have

-Why your routine needs a clear start and stop

-How writing your routine down can help you see what actually fits

-Why you should test your routine instead of expecting to get it perfect the first time
