Description

Calling all Catholic moms! Did you know it’s possible to do this Catholic motherhood thing without losing your mind? Parenting these days is so hard because most of us are doing it without the tools we need. I’m Sterling Jaquith, a homeschool mom to six young kids, a business owner and I teach busy Catholic moms how to have more peace in their lives and homes.

Each week on the Catholic Calm Mom podcast, I’ll give you practical tools for calming yourself down, discerning what God wants you to do, and making rock-solid plans so life doesn’t feel so overwhelming. If you’re a Catholic mom, you’re in the right place. Life is about to get so much better!

And if you love the content of this podcast, check out all tools we offer at www.catholicmomcalm.com.

10 Years From Now

10 Years From Now

2025-09-1020:50

When we start to feel stressed, it's helpful to ask the question, "How will I feel about this ten years from now?" This question helps us slow down and make intentional action steps instead of spinning out in worry. 
When we get busy and stressed, our prayer life is often the first to go. In this episode, I break down why that is and why it's important that we battle the lies our brains are telling us to keep prayer in our daily routine, even if it's just 10 minutes a day! Join us for the Mary's Heart, Martha's Order challenge starting September 10th by clicking here.

Join Christina Brown for a personal conversation about anxiety and how it can affect our lives in different ways. Together, they share practical tools to help manage anxiety, such as recognizing negative thoughts, using Scripture, and life coaching. They also introduce our upcoming "Anxiety Intensive" program for Catholic Mom Calm members, starting in July, which includes a workbook, one-on-one coaching, group calls, and a private Slack small group. The program aims to empower women to manage their anxiety, and support their loved ones facing the same challenge, with a focus on community and freedom. This supportive and safe space is perfect for anyone looking to take control of their anxiety and enjoy life to the fullest. We help Catholic moms quiet the chaos in their minds so they can hear the Holy Spirit and live with more peace.

We often run to podcasts or books to "fix" ourselves because we think, deep down, that something is broken in us. But this desire always comes with a sense of panic and urgency. Instead, true and holy self-help feels calm and slow and it feels like a gift to the Lord.  Book we're going to read in Catholic Mom Calm.
