Description

When your kids get sick, it’s easy for frustration to take over—especially when plans fall apart, and exhaustion sets in. In this episode, we explore how to shift your mindset so you can stay calm, grounded, and emotionally steady even during inconvenient, chaotic moments. These simple but powerful shifts will help you respond with intention instead of reacting from stress.

In today's episode, I will walk you through:

  1. How to focus on what is within your control when circumstances feel overwhelming.
  2. Why arguing with reality increases frustration—and how acceptance brings emotional relief.
  3. How shifting from “I have to” to “I choose to” can transform your attitude and emotional energy.

By the end, you'll be able to navigate sick days with more peace, flexibility, and emotional strength. You’ll learn how to manage negative thoughts, reduce stress, and show up as the calm mom you want to be—without trying to control what’s outside your reach.

If you're in a place where you need more personalized help and ongoing support, then the Calm Christian Mom Coaching Program is the right fit. 

If you want to work on your own time and start the mindset reset, the Renewed Mindset Course is the perfect fit for you.
