Ever feel like your thoughts are tangled up in a never-ending swirl of to-dos, emotions, and responsibilities? You’re not alone! In this episode, we’re diving into the waffle vs. spaghetti mindset—how men tend to compartmentalize (moving from one waffle square to another) while women’s thoughts often flow together like a plate of spaghetti.But here’s the thing: sometimes, we need to step out of the spaghetti swirl and embrace a waffle moment—a space to breathe, reset, and focus on just one thing at a time. Whether it’s decompressing after a long day, setting mental boundaries, or giving yourself permission to pause, this episode will help you find a little more clarity in the chaos.So grab your coffee (or maybe a waffle?), take a deep breath, and let’s talk about how to manage the mental overload of motherhood—one square at a time.-------Resources: Checked out the Growing Closer to God journal yet?

Dandelions aren’t just weeds. They’re symbols of resilience, transformation, and healing—just like you. They grow in the toughest conditions, thrive where nothing else will, and keep coming back stronger. Sound familiar?In this episode, we’ll talk about how motherhood mirrors the humble dandelion and how this simple flower can remind you to appreciate your own strength, growth, and impact—even on the hard days. So next time you see one, take a deep breath and say, “I’m doing it. I am enough.”Because, Mama, just like the dandelion—you are unstoppable. 💛-------- Resources: Checked out the Growing Closer to God journal yet?

Ever feel like you're running on fumes, forgetting everything, and one tantrum away from tears yourself? You're not alone—and you're not broken. In this episode of Good Day Moms, we dive into four very human frailties every mom faces: limited energy, emotional ups and downs, the deep need for rest, and the classic "mom brain."You'll hear faith-based encouragement and practical tips for giving yourself grace in the chaos. God didn’t design you to be superhuman—He designed you to need Him. So take a deep breath, grab your coffee (again), and let’s normalize the mess together.Keywords: Christian moms, mom burnout, emotional overwhelm, mom brain, faith and motherhood, encouragement for tired moms
Ever feel like you poured everything out—your energy, your prayers, your planning—only to end the day with dishes still in the sink, kids still arguing, and your heart wondering, What’s the point?In this episode, we’re taking a look at Daniel 9:26 where it looked like all of Jesus’s efforts led to nothing. Desolation still came. But Daniel’s story reminds us: don’t call it the end prematurely. What looks like defeat on the surface may just be part of God’s unseen victory.So if you’re tired, discouraged, or ready to throw in the towel, lean in. What you’re building may not look like much right now, but Heaven sees it all.#GoodDayMoms #ChristianMomEncouragement #Daniel926 #YouMakeADifference #MomBurnout #KeepPrayingMama #FaithInTheEveryday
What if a “good day” doesn’t look like productivity, smiles, or perfectly packed lunches? What if, instead, it means you made it through the day without falling apart — or even if you did, you still showed up?In this powerful and permission-giving episode, we unpack what a “good” day can actually mean in modern motherhood, especially during seasons of exhaustion, overwhelm, or emotional burnout. Because sometimes? A good day is simply one where no one cried, you remembered to eat, and you got sort of close to the laundry pile.
We all have those moments—snapping at the kids, missing a school deadline, or staring at a mountain of laundry. And then guilt creeps in, making you question if you're doing enough. But here’s the truth: you are a good mom. One tough moment or messy day doesn’t define you.In this episode, we’re kicking mom guilt to the curb and embracing grace instead. So take a deep breath, mama. You’re doing better than you think. 💛#GoodDayMoms #MomGuilt #GraceOverGuilt #EncouragementForMoms #YouAreEnough #FaithAndMotherhoodMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!) https://uppbeat.io/t/andrey-rossi/seize-the-day License code: QCRVRVEKOC2VRQUG
Mama, what if the mess around you is actually a sign of something good? That sink full of dishes? Proof that your family is fed. The toys scattered everywhere? A reminder of laughter and play. In this episode, we’re flipping our perspective and learning to see the beauty in the chaos of motherhood.Motherhood is overwhelming, but how we interpret the mess can change everything. Join me as we talk about shifting our mindset, embracing the imperfect, and finding joy in the little moments that make up our days. Because, at the end of it all, a messy home means a life well lived.💛 Tune in for encouragement, mindset shifts, and a reminder that you’re doing better than you think!#MotherhoodPodcast #MomLife #PositiveParenting #EncouragementForMoms #FindingJoyInMotherhood #MomMindset #MessyHouseFullHeartMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/andrey-rossi/seize-the-dayLicense code: QCRVRVEKOC2VRQUG
In this episode, we’re embracing a fresh chapter! What started as a space to bring moms together through stories of strength and struggle is evolving into something even deeper. Motherhood isn’t transformed in a single moment—it happens in the everyday minutes, in the chaos and the quiet, in the carpool line and the checkout lane.That’s why I’m renaming this podcast Good Day Moms. My purpose? To help you have a good day. To encourage you when you’re running on empty, to remind you that joy is still within reach, and to let you know you’re never alone in this journey.You’ll still hear powerful stories from moms, but you’ll also find more short bursts of encouragement—insights from my faith, my motherhood experiences, and the lessons hidden in the ordinary. Because at the end of the day, even on the hard ones, I want you to be able to look back, smile, and say, you know what? Today was good.Let’s walk this journey together.

Is the show helping you? Send me a text I’ve always interpreted “Quiet time” with God as just that - a solitary, silent place for me to connect with and wait on the Lord. Hands clasped, eyes closed, ssshhh…. but I’ll be honest - that has always been very hard for me. My body becomes restless, and my mind starts to wander. One day I just started praying while I was in full sweat mode at a bike cycling class. Gamechanger. ----- Related Episode: Waiting on Wonders with Tara Banks: Episode 36 ht...
