As moms, it's easy to put everything - and everyone - on a pedestal except the things God has truly called us to prioritize, (or put in the "right" place.) Especially, in busy seasons.
In this episode, we take an honest look at what we are idolizing, what's slipping through the cracks, and how to realign our focus.
Whether you are juggling homeschooling, fitness goals, or just trying to get through the day with grace, this conversation is your reminder to press on with purpose.

What if I told you that 80% of your results come from just 20% of your effort? This idea is known as the Pareto Principle. It can transform the way you approach fitness, nutrition, motherhood, and faith. In today’s episode, I’m breaking down how to use the 80/20 rule to get stronger, stay consistent, and simplify your life without burnout.
You’ll learn:
How to train smarter, not harder by focusing on the most effective workouts
Why 80% of your nutrition matters more than 100% perfection
How to simplify homemaking and motherhood by prioritizing what truly moves the needle
How to let go of the 20% that’s holding you back so you can thrive
“Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” — Abraham Lincoln
“Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.” — Proverbs 16:3 (ESV)
Action Steps from This Episode:
1. Fitness: Identify your top 3 workouts per week that make the biggest impact.
2. Nutrition: Audit your meals—are 80% whole, nutrient-dense, and protein-rich?
3. Motherhood & Homemaking: List 3 key things that keep your home, faith, and family running well. Let go of the fluff.
4. Faith & Mindset: Each night, reflect: Did I give my best 80% today? If yes, keep going. If no, reset and refocus.

As we get older, our training needs evolve. I'll share with you how to transition from relying on raw strength to incorporating finesse, strategy and efficiency - whether in the gym, jiu-jitsu, or everyday life. Strength is valuable, but knowing when and how to use it makes all the difference.
Today we will learn the shift from strength to finesse, training smarter not harder, jiu-jitsu lessons for life and fitness, avoiding burnout and injury and a biblical perspective on wisdom in training.

Most moms approach fitness as “just staying active,” but what if there’s a better way? In this episode of Reps and Redemption, we’re shifting the mindset from random workouts to training with intention, just like an athlete. You don’t have to be a competitor to train with purpose, build strength, and develop the discipline that benefits your body, mind, and spirit.
I’ll break down:
The difference between working out vs. training with purpose
How structured training helps you gain strength, confidence, and energy
Practical ways to apply an athlete’s mindset to your busy mom life
Taking care of yourself isn’t selfish—it’s essential. When you train with intention, you show up stronger for your family and in your faith in God.

Dear friends,
I feel compelled to change up the regular programming, especially after missing the last EP, due to the weather events. Last week brought in one intense hurricane and a ton of destruction, loss and heartbreak. If we can turn our focus to what we can do, it can make a difference. I pray this episode encourages you in some way, feel free to share it!
