    The holidays are supposed to be a time of joy, connection, and celebration.

    But for many of us, the pressure to create the perfect Christmas can turn this season into a whirlwind of stress.

    The endless to-do lists, the clutter of decorations, the expectation to make everything magical (without losing your sanity!) can leave you feeling overwhelmed and burnt out.

    But here’s the truth: you don’t have to do it all.

    The joy of Christmas doesn’t come from perfectly wrapped gifts or elaborate holiday traditions; it comes from being present with your loved ones and caring for yourself too.

    If the pressure of the season is already piling up, it’s time to take a deep breath and let some of it go.

    In this podcast, I’m sharing 5 simple tips to help you release some of that Christmas stress, simplify your holiday approach, and create a season that feels joyful instead of exhausting.

    Remember, less pressure = more peace.

    197 \\ How to have a Minimalist Christmas

    Are you already dreading the tidal wave of toys, trinkets, and random stuff that will fill your house after Christmas morning?

    It’s easy to get caught up in the gift-giving frenzy, especially when you want to give your kids the kind of magical holiday you dreamed of as a child.

    But let’s be real—how many of those gifts actually get used after the first week?

    Most of them end up as clutter, taking up space in your home and adding to the chaos you’re already trying to manage.

    If you’re nodding along, let me tell you this—you’re not alone.

    Many of us moms feel this way. We want to give our kids joy without drowning in stuff.

    A minimalist Christmas doesn’t mean no gifts.

    It means intentional gifts.

    It’s about creating memories and choosing quality over quantity so you can focus on what truly matters this holiday season.

    So if you're ready to break free from the overwhelm of clutter, tune in to this episode for some inspiration!

    196 \\ How Decluttering is a Spiritual Discipline

    Do you ever feel like the clutter in your home mirrors the chaos in your heart?

    That overwhelmed, suffocating feeling doesn’t just come from the piles of stuff around you—it’s deeper.

    Clutter can weigh on your soul, pulling your attention away from what truly matters.

    But what if decluttering wasn’t just about creating a tidy space?

    What if decluttering is a way to grow closer to God?

    In a world obsessed with more—more stuff, more busyness, more distractions—decluttering can be a powerful act of faith.

    It’s about letting go of what you’re holding onto too tightly and trusting that God will provide exactly what you need.

    It’s an opportunity to quiet the noise, refocus your heart, and create room for His peace.

    Do you want to be the kind of friend who makes a positive impact on your friend’s kids?

    As moms, it’s easy to get wrapped up in the day-to-day shuffle, but being there for our friends and their children can create a bond that goes beyond a typical friendship.

    From showing up at their events to sending a quick message on a tough day, these small acts of kindness help her children feel cared for—and let your friend know she's not in this alone.

    So if you’re ready to strengthen those bonds and be the friend who truly shows up, here are 12 easy ideas to get you started.

    190 \\ Trusting God with Our Stuff - Decluttering Inspiration

    Do you ever feel like your home is overflowing with stuff?

    Like no matter how much you declutter, there’s always more creeping in, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and weighed down by all the things?

    And what about that constant fear of letting go—just in case you might need something later?

    If you struggle with holding onto things, feeling like you need to keep everything for the future, you’re not alone.

    But here’s the thing: trusting God with our stuff can free us from that constant worry.

    In today’s episode, we’re diving into the story of the Israelites in the wilderness, when God provided manna—just enough for each day—and what it teaches us about trusting Him with our needs.

    We’ll talk about how holding onto too much is a sign that we’re not trusting God to provide for us in the future and how we can begin to release that fear.

    Join me as we unpack how this story applies to our homes, our clutter, and how we can let go, trusting that God will give us exactly what we need, right when we need it.
