  • Tiny Tweaks to Simplify Holiday Gifting
    2025/11/25
    Today we’re diving into holiday gifting, the part of the season that somehow feels both magical and mildly panic-inducing. If you’ve ever found yourself wanting to be thoughtful and generous but also staring at a long list feeling totally overwhelmed… same. This episode is your permission slip to take a breath, simplify, and bring the joy back into giving. I’m sharing the tiny tweaks that have genuinely changed the game for me, starting with reframing gift-giving as a simple expression of gratitude, not a quest for perfection. We’ll talk about getting clear instead of chaotic by creating a gift list (my updated printable is linked!), figuring out what kind of shopper and wrapper you actually are, and scheduling shopping so it stops looming over you. You’ll hear easy, budget-friendly ideas like favorite drinks, homemade treats, recipe cards, and simple group gifts. Plus, I’m walking you through my go-to “default gift” strategy, the thing that saves my sanity every single December. If you’ve been craving a calmer, more meaningful gifting season, this episode will help you feel organized, inspired, and maybe even excited again. Grab your coffee and let’s make holiday gifting feel manageable, and dare I say, enjoyable.

  • 10 Tiny Tweaks to Simplify Your Christmas Season
    2025/11/18
    In this episode, I’m sharing my heart on something that so many moms feel this time of year: the holidays are magical… until the pressure, expectations, and “shoulds” start stacking up. With over half of parents reporting higher stress during the holiday season, and one in five saying their stress even dampens their kids’ joy, I invite you to slow down, breathe, and shift into a gentler, more intentional way of moving through the season. Instead of striving for a perfect Christmas, I’ll share my favorite tiny tweaks to create real peace, joy, and presence this Christmas season. Through personal stories (including a memorable HomeGoods meltdown, a bumpy Aspen landing, and rethinking those “sucky-innie” Christmas pajamas), I’m here to remind you that small changes, like asking “What do I need?”, giving yourself a longer runway, checking your expectations, and communicating clearly make a huge difference in your holiday mindset. This episode is filled with encouragement and practical wisdom to help you ditch overwhelm, release perfection, and craft a Christmas that aligns with your family, your values, and your capacity. Tune in to learn the 10 tiny tweaks that will lighten your load, bring back the magic, and give you permission to savor a season you love, not just for your kids, but for yourself too.

  • Christmas Prep with Professional Organizer Jaclyn Musselman
    2025/11/11
    Ready or not, the holidays are here, and if you’ve ever found yourself knee-deep in tangled lights or missing the tape when it’s time to wrap gifts, this episode is for you! I’m sitting down with professional organizer and fellow mom, Jaclyn Musselman, to help us take the stress out of holiday prep and replace it with a little more peace and purpose. Jaclyn shares how she turned her passion for simplifying motherhood into a thriving business that helps women declutter their homes and find calm in the chaos, especially during the most wonderful (and sometimes overwhelming) time of year. In this episode, you’ll learn how to actually organize your seasonal decor so it’s easy to find, how to make the most of small spaces, and why subtracting before adding is the secret to a more peaceful home. Jaclyn also drops game-changing tips for organizing your wrapping station, keeping track of gifts, and letting go of sentimental items, yes, even that Christmas decoration you feel guilty parting with. Plus, we chat about creating cozy holiday vibes that don’t add more clutter and why experience-based gifts often mean more than another mug or mantle piece. So grab your favorite holiday drink, put on your festive playlist, and get ready to simplify your season. You’ll walk away with practical tips, a few “why didn’t I think of that?” moments, and the gentle reminder that a meaningful holiday isn’t about more stuff, it’s about more peace, presence, and purpose.

  • Turkey on the Table: A Tiny Tweak for Family Gratitude
    2025/11/04
    We’re officially (or unofficially!) kicking off the holiday season, and what better way to start than with a heart of gratitude? In this episode, I’m joined by Kerry and April, the creative moms and founders behind Turkey on the Table, a simple, hands-on way for families to practice gratitude together all November long. Born out of a preschool parking lot conversation, this sweet idea turned into a nationwide movement helping parents teach their kids to slow down, notice the good, and give thanks in tangible ways. Kerry and April share the inspiring story of how Turkey on the Table came to life, the surprising science behind gratitude, and why small daily habits can make a big impact on our hearts and homes. They also open up about their meaningful partnership with Feeding America, donating over 1.8 million meals to families in need, and the sweetest stories they’ve heard from homes, classrooms, and even nursing homes using the turkey tradition to spark joy and connection. If you’re ready to anchor your family in gratitude and kick off the holidays with more heart, this episode will leave you inspired, grounded, and ready to start your own tradition of thankfulness.

  • How to Navigate Motherhood, Marriage & Community
    2025/10/28
    What happens when God asks you to do something that doesn’t make sense? Today I’m joined by Lindsay Parks, a wife, mom of five, and cohost of the podcast Built for More for a real, faith-filled conversation about obedience, motherhood, and finding peace in the messy middle. Lindsay shares what it looked like for her family to sell their dream home in pursuit of financial freedom, the rhythms that keep their home running, and how she stays grounded while raising kids from middle school to college. We also talk about making space for marriage, friendship, and faith in busy seasons, and why sometimes following God means letting go before you see the full picture. It’s practical, honest, and full of grace, the kind of conversation that feels like catching up with a friend over coffee, so grab yours and tune in!
