Do you like the idea of having a creative hobby but don't feel like you'd be good at it? I don’t consider myself to be an artistic person, but the truth is, I never even attempt art, so how would I know? We live in a society that is obsessed with productivity and excellence, so we often don’t give ourselves permission to try a new creative hobby just because we want to or because it feels relaxing or fun. Lisa Funk of Hand Lettered Design believes that the benefits of having a creative hobby go far beyond a beautiful finished product.  I can't wait for you to read what Lisa has to share.

It’s about that time of year when I start to look for home-organizing hacks for the summer.  Are you like me and you feel like clothes are multiplying? 🫨 My kids (and even my husband and I!) are changing clothes multiple times a day between swimming, working, and playing out in the hot sun chasing our dog, Petra. I am definitely feeling like it's time to get some good systems back in place in our home, and honestly, summer is a great time to do some organizing because we have more free time as a family.  If you're also feeling ready to do a summer reset, my conversation with Jen Martin from Reset Your Nest will give you many great ideas.

Do you love the idea of family adventures but struggle with the actual execution?  Daily life with children is an adventure in and of itself, and sometimes, that's all we can manage. But sometimes, we are in seasons where we want to get out into the world more together. That's why I'm so excited about this special encore episode, so I can share this fantastic interview I did with Chamaine Wollenzein, in case you missed it the first time. She is inspiring!  Oh, and if you're not a hiker or camper, don't worry - this episode is still for you!

Are you struggling to know how to teach your kids about money?  Financial literacy for kids is so critical - we all know that. But it can also be overwhelming! That’s why many parents (myself included!) have questions about (and maybe even some guilt over 🫣) how to teach their kids about money. I have often felt like I'm not doing enough in this area, but I've also felt stuck and wondered where I can get started with it all.  Can you relate? 🙇‍♀️ If so, you're going to love this episode with Abby Chipman. Abby is the finance director for 3 in 30, and she is a queen at managing finances as well as teaching budgeting skills to her family and those in her community. She recently taught a class about financial literacy for kids at a retreat I had for the Self-Assured Motherhood program alumni. The women at the retreat loved it so much that I asked her to bring her three takeaways here so we could all learn from her. Enjoy! *** Mentioned in the Episode: Abby's Book & Podcast List Jolly Good Dollar Related Episodes like this one on How to Teach Your Kids About Money: 203: 3 Ways to Change your Money Mindset Today // Sara Payne 312: How to Run Your Home like a Well-Run Business // Crystalee Beck 315: A Word from our SAM Sisters   Sponsors: Mollys Suds: Pick up Molly’s Suds on your next Target run or order through my exclusive URL to get 20% off all Molly Suds products.

Have you ever thought about using the Enneagram in relationships? If you don’t know what the Enneagram is or haven’t used it much in your relationships, you are in for a real treat! It is an incredible tool for improving relationships, and I am so thrilled to share it with you today!  Now, a little backstory: For as long as I can remember, I've been a sucker for personality quizzes and profiling systems - anything that helps me understand myself and others more deeply.  I think this probably started with taking quizzes in teen magazines with my friends while growing up in the 1990s. 😝 (Please tell me you were obsessed with these, too! For nostalgia’s sake, I looked some up and found this one - doesn’t it take you back?)  Even now, in adulthood, I love learning about how I and others think and the differences between how we all move through the world. It fascinates me!  I am excited to share with you a conversation I had with Enneagram expert Kelsey Lincoln who helps us understand how we can use it to improve our relationships. You are going to love it! For full show notes, including the three takeaways, click here.  *** Announcements: Don’t forget to order your Flecks of Gold Journal while they’re in stock!

A strong parent-child relationship is so important, but it can sometimes be hard to know how to build one.  It’s my honor to share an interview with my Dad, Mike Westover. He has had, without a doubt, the biggest impact on my life, my mothering journey, and how I am trying to build bonds with my kids.  My dad is and always has been a rock in my life, and I've been trying to get him to come on the podcast for many years, but he would insist, "What would an old man like me have to teach all of the mothers who listen to your show?"  Well, a lot, as it turns out! I know you are going to love this conversation with him as he shares three simple, yet powerful things we can all do to forge a strong parent-child relationship. it's an honor to get to share this piece of my heart with you on this week after Father's Day.

Today, I have a special bonus episode for the moms out there who are trying to work from home this summer, like I am. It can get so intense! It often feels like you’re not doing any of it well, especially with the kids home 24/7.  As I was trying to prepare myself to manage this reality these next few months, I reached out to one of my Self-Assured Motherhood students, who is an expert in this topic, and asked her to record her best three takeaways for us. I hope you find them as helpful as I did!  For full show notes, including the three takeaways, click here.  *** Announcement:  Get your private podcast feed for working moms!

My relationship with my dad is really special. I know firsthand how intentional fatherhood can impact a child’s life. With Father's Day coming up this week in the United States, I've been thinking a lot about my Dad, so I invited a dad I admire to interview on the podcast.  Now, this podcast is for moms, so why feature an episode about dads? Well, all of us here in this community - whether you’re in the podcast community or you’ve joined my Self-Assured Motherhood program - are working hard to become intentional moms. And moms often ask me, “What can we do to get our husbands on board?”  Unfortunately, there aren’t as many resources about intentional fatherhood out there, so I’m thrilled to introduce my guest to you moms so you have an excellent resource to share with the dads in your life.  My guest is Tal Eyre, and his new book, Dad Mode, reveals some of the key lessons he’s learned about fatherhood. I’m excited to share with you three of the takeaways from his book in honor of Father's Day!

Do you have some fun trips coming up? Are you looking for travel tips for families? Summer is here, which means that millions of moms - literally! - will be taking trips with their families in the next few months. There will be road trips, family reunions, bucket-list trips, and even day trips. This season can be so much fun, but it can also be stressful.  Riiiight? Tell me you feel this, too!  This is why I invited Meesha Slade onto my show to share some travel tips for families. Meesha taught a class on family travel at my in-person Self-Assured Motherhood alumni retreat at the end of April.

Knowing how to make reading fun for our kids can be exasperating! As a kid, I spent hours every day reading in the summer. I'd come home from the library with stacks of books. I was so jazzed when I got my "personal pan pizza" from Pizza Hut after I completed the Summer Reading Program. Do you remember those days? My kids are not quite as easily motivated. With summer coming up, I want to find ways to get them into books, but it will take more than the promise of a pizza to get them to dive in. They like to read but don't love it like I did as a kid. That’s why I’m truly grateful for this interview with reading expert Janssen Bradshaw. She gives strategies for how to make reading FUN this summer. Fun is something my kids can get on board with! I’m excited to share Janssen’s wisdom with you!

Parenting anxious kids can be stressful! It's hard to watch our kids struggle. If you have a child who worries a lot, avoids certain social situations, or even shows physical signs of panic when facing their fears, you might start to wonder, "Does my child have diagnosable anxiety? Or is this just part of growing up? And what am I supposed to do to help them?" Sound familiar? I’m raising my hand! This is a personal topic for me because I struggle with anxiety myself, and just in the last few months, my daughter has started to show some symptoms of anxiety. If you’re like me, and these questions have ever come to mind, you will love my interview with Dr. Terri Bacow, a well-known expert in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

I LOVE this podcast. Helpful, easy to apply, fun. Theres such a variety of topics, even the ones that I don't think I'll he interested in are helpful. And I like the 30 minutes because that's just enough time for a basic household chore or walk, and I can usually (not always) get through it before there's a big enough problem with my kids I have to stop it.

I love this podcast. 30 minutes seems to be the perfect length for folding laundry or making some other tasks fly by. Rachel always has amazing guests and I love the knowledge shared. This podcast is in my top 3 favorites and I am so grateful for it.

Thank you for this series on mental health. You are the reason I am currently seeking the help I've truly needed. You are a blessing. BOTH of you.

These sound like ideas that might work well for ONE specific couple. I don't think these ideas generalize to all personality types.

Love these ideas. The only thing i would say is, instead of the mom doing all the night before prep, have the KIDS do the night time prep. They can fill their own water bottles and pack their own lunches (mostly), etc.! Let kids help take responsibility for making the morning better. It's not just mom's job.
