90 | Stop Comparison and Grow Your Faith Again - Devotion

95 | Breaking Free from Comparison: Lose Weight Without Losing Yourself with Coryn Brown & Crysanne Clay

Do you ever find yourself slipping into comparison—especially as a SAHM—letting someone else’s routines or body shape quietly rewrite your priorities and your sense of self-worth? Have you noticed moments where mom guilt makes you question your self-esteem or the way you care for your body, even though you’re doing the best you can in the season you’re in? Are you carrying expectations that don’t match your real life, making health feel like pressure instead of peace—and keeping you from honoring the body God entrusted to you? If so, you’re in the right place.  Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom. Today have an amazing interview with Coryn Brown and Crysanne Clay, a mother-daughter health coaching duo and the voices behind the Her Healthy Body Podcast. With over 20 years of combined experience working with women both in person and online, they specialize in strength training, protein-focused nutrition, and helping women rebuild their health after years of diet culture and extremes. — all while keeping God at the center of the journey. In this episode, we’re talking about the quiet trap so many moms fall into—trying to lose weight, only to lose themselves in the process. When health becomes about aesthetics instead of stewardship, comparison takes over, joy drains out, and the journey stops feeling holy, peaceful, or sustainable. This conversation brings you back to the why behind getting healthy, the warning signs of obsession, and the strength‑centered, God‑honoring approach that actually lasts. * Why your “why” matters more than any number on the scale. The women who succeed long‑term are the ones who pursue health for deeper reasons—not just looks, but the ability to show up for their families, their calling, and their life. * The truth about chasing a smaller version of yourself. A tinier body won’t make you happier. In fact, the more obsessed you become with losing weight, the more you tend to gain—because obsession steals peace, clarity, and consistency. * The spiritual reset your health journey needs. Weight loss is a side effect, not the goal. You can hand control back to God and choose to honor the body He gave you with strength, nourishment, and compassion. * Realistic expectations for real‑life seasons. Busy seasons will come. Your health habits should flex with your life, not break you. Peace is a fruit of healthy stewardship. * Why strength is the healthiest definition of “healthy.” Strength builds sustainable body composition, confidence, and energy—without the obsession, comparison, or guilt. * How comparison steals joy from your body image. When you measure yourself against others, you lose sight of the unique, God‑crafted body you’re called to care for. Warning signs that weight-loss has become an obsession: * When looks become the focus * When workouts feel like punishments * When diet and exercise become attempts to control your life * When your workout drains your energy instead of giving it Related Episodes, Devotions, and Links: Her Healthy Body Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/her-healthy-body-lose-weight-workouts-high-protein/id1586031822 [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/her-healthy-body-lose-weight-workouts-high-protein/id1586031822] Her Healthy Body Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/herhealthybody [https://www.facebook.com/herhealthybody] Her Healthy Body Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/her.healthy.body/ [https://www.instagram.com/her.healthy.body/] Website: herhealthybody.co Contact email:  team@herhealthybody.co Next Steps: >Subscribe to the Time for Mom weekly devotion and newsletter: https://bit.ly/timeformomsubscribe [https://bit.ly/timeformomsubscribe] Join the Time for Mom private Facebook Community: https://bit.ly/timeformomcommunity [https://bit.ly/timeformomcommunity] >Leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts! https://bit.ly/timeformompodcast [https://bit.ly/timeformompodcast] >Need a mom mentor?

94 | “Unqualified” Isn’t Disqualified — How God Turns Your Past Into Purpose. Devotion

Do you ever look at your past or your weaknesses — like Paul persecuting believers or you feeling unqualified as a mom, wife, or leader — and assume God can’t use someone like you? Have you let past mistakes and shortfalls convince you that God can’t use you for something more than the day-to-day? Are you tying your self‑worth to results instead of trusting God to work through your weakness? If so, you’re in the right place.  Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom. In this episode, I’m sharing my own journey of feeling unqualified — as a mom, wife, leader, and writer — so you can see how God works through ordinary women who simply choose to obey. * God equips the willing, not the qualified. * Your weakness is where God shows His power. * Obedience matters more than credentials. * Paul’s past became his testimony, not his disqualification. * God uses you even when you feel unworthy. * Results aren’t your job — obedience is.

93 | Lost in Motherhood? Rediscover Your Identity, Self‑Worth, and Priorities as a SAHM

Do you ever feel like your routines are running your life instead of helping you protect your priorities — especially when mom guilt or comparison starts whispering that you’re not doing enough? Have you noticed how easily your self-esteem and self-worth get tangled up in being a SAHM, as if your identity begins and ends with what you do for everyone else? Are you carrying the weight of motherhood in a way that leaves you drained, overwhelmed, and unsure how to realign your priorities so you can actually enjoy your kids again? If so, you’re in the right place.  Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom. In this episode, I’m sharing some lessons on mom identity that I've learned in the last six years of motherhood so you can reject expectations and comparison in favor of reclaiming your identity as more than just mom.  * The “respond to every cry” season is short — don’t stay stuck in it long‑term. * As your family grows, boundaries matter; babies can wait a few minutes and older kids still need you. * Small, steady adjustments help you realign motherhood with your true priorities. * You’re a mom, but not only a mom — caring for yourself and your identity matters. * Staying rooted in God shifts the whole atmosphere of your home and helps you show up with grace.

92 | Feeling Unqualified, SAHM? What Moses Teaches Us About Flaws - Devotion

Do you ever slip into comparison or mom guilt when your routines don’t look “good enough,” even though God keeps reminding you He uses imperfect people on purpose? Have you noticed how your self-esteem takes a hit when you focus more on your flaws than on the calling God has placed on your life? Are you letting your priorities get swallowed by fear or insecurity instead of stepping forward in obedience, trusting that God qualifies the called? If so, you’re in the right place.  Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom. In this episode, I’m sharing how God uses our flaws and insecurities—just like He did with Moses—so you can step into your calling as a mom with confidence, courage, and a heart willing to obey even when you don’t feel enough. God uses your flaws on purpose, just like He used Moses’ weakness to reveal His strength. Your calling doesn’t require perfection, only a willing heart to obey even when you feel unqualified or insecure. Mom guilt and self‑doubt don’t disqualify you — God equips you as you step into what He’s asked you to do. Your weaknesses can become someone else’s encouragement, because God’s power shines brightest through the places you feel least confident. Obedience grows confidence, just like Moses became bold only after he started walking out his calling one step at a time. You can’t ruin God’s plan by being imperfect, because success in His eyes is measured in eternity, not instant results.

91 | The Strength of Dad — and the Support He Needs From You

Does your husband do things so much differently that you that you twitch a little if you watch him? Have you wondered why your kids just respond differently and better to your husband than you? Are you trying to support and love your husband as he takes on fatherhood? If so, you’re in the right place.  Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom. In this episode, I’m sharing how dads uniquely shape their kids and how we can better support our husbands in parenting so you can build a stronger, more unified home where both parents thrive. * Kids thrive when dads lead with calm strength, and their unique influence shapes confidence, discipline, and emotional security. * Children learn by watching their dad, not just listening — modeling matters more than perfect parenting. * Moms and dads parent differently, and that’s a gift, not a flaw. Different strengths create a fuller, healthier home. * Backing your husband in front of your kids builds unity, stability, and trust in your family’s leadership. * Disagreements about parenting belong in private, where unity can be restored without confusing your children. * Respecting your husband publicly strengthens your marriage, and your kids learn how love and partnership work. * Letting your husband “dad his way” empowers him, builds his confidence, and shows your kids that both parents matter. * Protecting space for intimacy keeps your marriage strong, which ultimately strengthens your whole family.
