S2:E1 Lessons God Is Teaching During This Busy Season

S2:E2 Becoming the Mom I Never Planned to Be

I never planned to be a stay-at-home mom… but now I can’t imagine my life any other way. In this episode, I’m sharing my journey through motherhood, faith, and learning to slow down. From living on autopilot—working, rushing, and following the path I thought I had to take… to building a life that allows me to be present, raise my daughter, and grow in my relationship with God. If you’re a mom who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure if there’s another way to live and earn income—this is for you. We talk about: * Stay-at-home mom life and identity shifts * Christian motherhood and growing your faith * Slowing down and being present with your family * Breaking out of the “work → pay bills → repeat” cycle * Creating income from home and building a more aligned life Motherhood didn’t just change my life—it changed my priorities, my faith, and who I’m becoming. If you’re in a season of becoming, feeling called to something different, or craving a slower, more meaningful life… you’re not behind. You’re being prepared. 📖 Free Devotional:If you want to grow in your faith but don’t know where to start, I created a simple devotional to help you begin. 👉 www.faithfamilyfarmlife.com

S2:E1 Lessons God Is Teaching During This Busy Season

After taking a break from recording, I’m so excited to be back for a new season of Jesus Lovin’ and Animal Obsessed. Life has been full lately. Between being eight months pregnant, raising a toddler, running two businesses, and working toward some big goals this year, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. But in the middle of this season, God has been teaching me something really important: slow down. In this episode I share a passage from Matthew 6 that has been speaking to me deeply and reminding me that God already knows what we need. We don’t have to carry the weight of tomorrow while we’re living today. I’m also sharing three lessons God has been teaching me in this season: • Simplifying your priorities • Setting boundaries and letting go of people pleasing • Working hard while trusting God with the outcome If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or stretched thin, I hope this episode reminds you that you don’t have to have everything figured out. Sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is simply seek God first and trust Him with the rest. I’m also sharing about a new project I’ve been working on — a free 5-day devotional called Called For More — designed to help you slow down, seek God, and gain clarity around the path He may be calling you to.
