Welcome back to the Deliberate Day podcast...the podcast for moms of many!

If your entry into 'Womanhood' was a bit less than stellar...

If you're staring down the barrel of a pre-teen starting her transformation...

Then what our guest is sharing today is exactly what you need in your life!

Because you're a woman (most of our listeners are), your body moves within a cycle each month.

This has an impact on you, your relationships, your family, AND the rhythm in your home!

Psst…that's not a bad thing.  It's a beautiful thing, because it's how you were created, and today we're going to share a bit of wisdom and understanding about how your cycle shows up in various ways and how we can best care for ourselves in the different phases! 

Today we have a seasoned wife and mother of more than 37 years. She's homeschooled and lived the public school life with her five children and is now the feminine genius behind Wisdom Wellness Coaching and the podcast Cycles and Sanctity. She has a heart for teaching women more about their fertility and how our cycles can help us grow in holiness AND she's just recently started a program for women in menopause and perimenopause!

Renee has been a long-time friend, and we are SO excited to share her wisdom and wit with the beautiful mommas in our community!

She’s a wife, a homeschooling momma to 6 beautiful souls, an author, a podcaster, a speaker, an entrepreneur, and a Catholic Business coach who teaches women to discern God’s will for their lives and businesses! Can we talk about wearing different hats mommas?!

AND…she’s coming with the fire today! Sweet mommas, may we introduce Sterling Jaquith.

Date nights are VITAL in every stage of motherhood! Between Kathleen (currently due with blessing #4), Brittany (wrangling ages 4-16), and Tiffany (graduating into older kid and college territory), we’re speaking about how YOU can love your spouse well in every stage of motherhood!

A large part of raising our kids to BE adults is teaching them the skills necessary for life outside our homes! Make THIS the year you delegate at least one dinner a week (while giving your children the opportunity to learn valuable skills)!

A trip to Italy involves A LOT of walking…but it’s SO worth it!

The “How” of making a BIG dream-like Italy work for 2 moms with a combined 12 kids!

As you plan for the holidays, consider ‘January You’!

The season of Advent is almost here…a time of waiting and expectation for Christ's birth. This *should be a time of peace and togetherness in our homes, but in reality…

Sometimes it's just not.

Sometimes we overload our calendars, rush from thing to thing, and by the time Christmas arrives, we're exhausted, our kids have lost their minds, and our homes are a disaster.

Not this year, sweet mommas. Not. This. Year.

Today we have Tessa from Build a Country Home. She is a homeschooling mom of 6 and her family owns a dairy farm in southern Alberta. She is deeply connected with the unique struggles of life in regards to motherhood and has built a business by helping women create harmony, order, and cooperation within their home and family so that they have energy and the mental fortitude to do all the things that God has asked of them...especially during the holiday seasons!

The holidays are upon us...and you know that means …behind all the memories, all the special moments, all the sweet treats, all the parties, and meals, and decorations, and thoughtful giving...are some pretty phenomenal, but more than likely, exhausted mommas.

My fellow high-achieving mommas...you know who you are.

The holidays are upon us and they are filled with good and right celebration! But it can be really difficult to honor our finances during a time of so much GOOD or if we are honoring our finances...not to do so without creating a scarcity mindset.

To set us on the right path is Amanda Texiera! She is the co-founders and co-owner of Wallet Win with her husband. Their mission is to help Catholics find financial freedom by eliminating debt, building savings, and changing the world through generosity. They are also the creators and hosts of their very own Podcast, the Catholic Money Show!

Amanda Texiera welcome!

We’re coming back after a long series on miscarriage, and originally we wanted to release this interview in a different month, but after the interview with Catherine Johnson, we KNEW that it actually belonged right here, between our discussion on loss and our discussion coming up on welcoming the holiday season.

As beautiful as the holidays are, they can also bring a slew of many other emotions that are LESS enjoyable…overwhelm, resentment, anger, bitterness…because when we get overwhelmed we can feel like EVERYTHING depends on us!

These emotions can come out in all kinds of different ways, and they can waterfall into our families. Especially during times of high stress…like the holidays.

We've invited Kelly Sakmar to share her own story of infant loss and to share with us how to find healing after this devastation, as well as tools for dealing with PTSD, and ways we can reach out to fellow mommas we know who may experience this.

Kelly is the mother of 4 and owner of clutterLESS, she lives in Pensylvannia with her husband. She is a beautiful example of life after loss and we are so delighted to share her with you today!

Please welcome Kelly Sakmar!

It’s no secret that miscarriages shake our foundations to the very core. This month has been all about miscarriages…our personal stories and journeys and how they whisper deep seeded sorrows of loss, confusion, and even anger into the corners of our hearts. Often leaving us feeling lost, misunderstood, and alone. But that isn’t the end of the story, and just as Emily spoke a little hope and healing into our hearts last week…we have a beautiful guest with us today to speak even more hope into those heavy hearts.

Kylie is a Catholic Mindset Coach with a mission to bring souls back to Christ through prayer…and boy do we need to be brought back…even kicking and screaming and crying…after a miscarriage. She works to connect women with prayer and trust again. She resides in Nebraska with her two children and husband, Russell and loves the blessings their small town offers them.

Please welcome Kylie Hein!

This one is fire ♥.

Our guest today is has a special heart for mommas experiencing a baby loss that surely stems from her own experience with 6 precious little souls now in heaven, but also from ever so much grace that has been poured out to give her the strength to overcome her own losses and use them as fuel to comfort and guide those who might be holding that same weight on their hearts.

Please welcome Emily Adams!

Some wounds are so deep and so personal that we don’t talk about them... even with our closest friends. Miscarriage can fall into that category, but sweet mommas, it shouldn’t.  So it’s in that spirit, we’ve decided to begin the conversation of pregnancy and infant loss month with our own experiences of pregnancy loss...and we go deep. Come go deep with us.
