You carry great responsibility as the mom when you take your children out into public.  Whether you're going to run local errands, on a nature adventure into the depths of a forest, to the park, or to an amusement park, there are ways that you can be proactive to help keep your children safe. I'm so privileged to have Amber Elle joining us for this important conversation.  Amber is a mom to three children who are 8, 6, and 4 years old.  Amber was a registered nurse but has transitioned into a self-reliance advocate and works to empower people to know how to protect themselves when put in harms way. You are going to be so encouraged and empowered by her today and will want to follow her!Follow Amber on Instagram @ms.amber.elleVisit her website www.amber-elle.comVisit the SEEK WHOLLY LIVING website (With encouragement, information, and fun for all things Mom!)  https://seekwhollyliving.comSIGN UP to receive updates & my free special printable:***THE 3 MOST IMPORTANT CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE TODAY TO BE A BETTER MOM***   ☕ CONNECT with US:INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/seekwhollylivingFACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/seekwhollylivingparenting, christian, mom, homeschool, marriage, seek wholly living, christa svoboda, protecting your children in public, saftey, concealed carry, predators, awareness, kidnaping 

Have you wondered how to talk with your children about sex?  Or how to create a healthy sexual culture  in your home? Due to the nature of this topic, this will be an episode that you’ll want to save to listen to without little ears around.  Time and time again moms have asked for a conversation on this topic, so I did it here with Greta Eskridge.  Greta is a mom who loves to adventure through life with her 4 children.  She loves adventuring so much that she wrote a book about it!  You should all have her book, it is so inspirational, it’s called Adventuring Together, and if you don’t follow us on Instagram yet, you should do so this week because I’ll be giving away a copy of her book there.  I can be found @seekwhollyliving and Greta is @maandpamodern.  Greta speaks all over the nation on the difficult topics of creating a healthy sexual culture in your home and protecting children from  pornography.  What a joy and privilege it is to have this conversation with Greta Eskridge today and I would challenge you, as you listen, to consider what friends you can share this with to support them in their journey of parenting as well.  I’m so glad you’re here!Buy Greta's book, Adventuring TogetherYou can also find Greta at www.gretaeskridge.comVisit the SEEK WHOLLY LIVING website (With encouragement, information, and fun for all things Mom!)  https://seekwhollyliving.comSIGN UP to receive updates & my free special printable:***THE 3 MOST IMPORTANT CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE TODAY TO BE A BETTER MOM***   ☕ CONNECT with US:INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/seekwhollylivingFACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/seekwhollylivingseek wholly living, christa svoboda, mom, wife, Christian mom, Christian wife, homeschool mom, Christian parenting, creating a healthy sexual culture in your home, sex education, wild and free, talk with kids about sex, how to talk with kids about sex, how to teach kids about sex, homeschool mom, homeschool family, adventuring together

Disciplining our children is hard work!  This conversation is with my mom, Connie Burroughs, who poured herself into discipling the hearts of her four children for so many years and has encouraged many moms on this topic of the heart of parental discipline.  Between her four children and my five children, it is incredible to see the many different struggles that can come with training children.  There will be a follow up episode with some specific tools of discipline, but it must begin first with the heart.  We talk about our heart when we are disciplining our children and the ways that we strive to reach the hearts of our children through their training.  Truly, the ultimate purpose of discipline is to lead our children's hearts closer to the Lord, that they may serve Him with their lives.  Visit the SEEK WHOLLY LIVING website (for Encouragement, Information, and Fun for all things Mom!)https://seekwhollyliving.comSIGN UP to receive updates & my free special printable:***THE 3 MOST IMPORTANT CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE TODAY TO BE A BETTER MOM***   ☕ CONNECT with US:INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/seekwhollylivingFACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/seekwhollylivingseek wholly living,christa svoboda,christian mom,christian mom vlog,mom,christian mom,christian moms,stay at home mom,christian wife,homeschool,homeschool mom,homeschool family,preparing our hearts for Easter,

What a shame it would be if we were so busy doing all of the "good" things that we missed the great work that God had for us to do.  I'm so glad to have Rachel Comfort Zwayne back with me today to talk about intentionally choosing simplicity.As a homeschooling mom of 5 grown children in Southern California, Rachel has personal experience with the blessings and struggles of maintaining a simple enough life to allow time for prioritizing home, discipleship, extra curricular opportunities, friendships etc. This is the PERFECT time for this conversation as we are moving into the new year as the wives and moms who desire to prioritize the Lord and all He has for our families above all else.  Listen today and share it with a friend!You can find Rachel on Instagram @joyful_mothers or on Facebook at the Joyful Mothers group Visit the SEEK WHOLLY LIVING website (for Encouragement, Information, and Fun for all things Mom!)https://seekwhollyliving.comSIGN UP to receive updates & my free special printable:***THE 3 MOST IMPORTANT CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE TODAY TO BE A BETTER MOM***   ☕ CONNECT with US:INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/seekwhollylivingFACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/seekwhollylivingseek wholly living,christa svoboda,christian mom,christian mom vlog,mom,christian mom,christian moms,stay at home mom,christian wife,christmas,reflect and rejoice, new year,

Merry Christmas!  I can’t believe that it is the final week of advent and preparing our hearts for the celebration of Christmas.  At this time of year when there can be so much going on, I’ve decided to spend this episode with you bathing our hearts and minds in scripture.  It is all too easy to busy ourselves so much that we neglect to still our hearts enough to truly abide in Him.  We have so many voices constantly pouring into us, voices from those around us and in the voices we allow in our own minds, it is more important than ever that we be mindful of taking every thought captive and slowing down our hearts and minds to be filled with His truth.  It is my prayer that this brief time together will leave you so filled with His Word that His joy will be made complete in you and your heart will be overflowing with His joy and love to those around you.As John 15 speaks to us so clearly, may we abide in Him this Christmas week.Visit the SEEK WHOLLY LIVING website (for Encouragement, Information, and Fun for all things Mom!)https://seekwhollyliving.comSIGN UP to receive updates & my free special printable:***THE 3 MOST IMPORTANT CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE TODAY TO BE A BETTER MOM***   ☕ CONNECT with US:INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/seekwhollylivingFACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/seekwhollylivingseek wholly living,christa svoboda,christian mom,christian mom vlog,mom,christian mom,christian moms,stay at home mom,christian wife,christmas,abide in him

If you do not prioritize slowness for you and your family in the Christmas season, no one will.  With so many wonderful opportunities to good things at this time of year, it is so easy to slip into the busy "hustle and bustle" and miss the opportunity for the hearts in our homes to "prepare Him room".  My good friend Michelle Akrami is back with me for this conversation.  Michelle lives a very full life in southern CA with her husband and their 5 children.  Yet with all of the blessings that come with living in such a busy place with so many people in her home, she continues to grow in the discipline of choosing slowness as she sets priorities for their family.  You will be so blessed by this authentic conversation as Michelle and I talk through the gifts and challenges of deciding priorities, choosing when to say "yes" and "no" for ourselves and our children, and some of the ways that the Lord has matured us in this area of the years. Be watching our Instagram for a giveaway of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry, by John Mark Comer.  This book has been deeply impactful in both of our lives!Follow Michelle on Instagram @theunhurriedfarmVisit the SEEK WHOLLY LIVING website (for Encouragement, Information, and Fun for all things Mom!)https://seekwhollyliving.comSIGN UP to receive updates & my free special printable:***THE 3 MOST IMPORTANT CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE TODAY TO BE A BETTER MOM***   ☕ CONNECT with US:INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/seekwhollylivingFACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/seekwhollylivingseek wholly living,christa svoboda,christian mom,christian mom vlog,mom,christian mom,christian moms,stay at home mom,christian wife,christmas,slowness in the christmas season,peace,stress
