  • A few months ago, Brittany was invited to be a guest on the Everyday Parents podcast, and after that appearance, we were super excited to have them on ours! They share a peek into the life of everyday parents on their episodes…their routines, the things that are special to them, and what’s most important to them…and it really gives insight to what’s working for many other family types.

  • On this episode, we’re back with our favorite Board Certified Behavioral Analyst—Renee Amato— to talk ALL things tickets!

    If you’re new to us…or haven’t followed along on IG…the tickets are a system Brittany developed (along with input from her children and husband) to bring a little fun into their homeschool!

    Before we go, there are a few items in the shop that are pretty new!

    The Homeschool Plan Like a Mother Guide is great for when you’re planning your homeschool year. Excellent questions and prompts will get you to think about the ‘Why” behind what you’re doing. Whatever your reasons for homeschooling, this will help you stay organized and aligned. Keep track of spending, curriculum purchases, student and parent narratives…the list goes on! These prompts and reflections can help you get out of the weeds and SEE the progress you’re making in your homeschool!

    We ALSO have the editable clipboard template you can use daily in your homeschool. This can give even the youngest kids some independence and autonomy in their day!

    And remember sweet momma…

    You are doing beautiful work!

  • Community is important in every aspect of life…even in homeschooling.

    This doesn't mean you have to be involved in a co-op or homeschool group in your local area (although that CAN enrich your experience), but it DOES mean that finding your 'people' (either in-person or online) IS important.

    Social media can get a bad rap (many times deserved) but it is a GREAT way to find new ideas, hear differing perspectives, and (if you're following uplifting accounts) see solutions you never would've considered (or even heard about) before!

    With ALL these things in mind, and in an attempt to REALLY serve the mommas in our community, we've asked our good friend, fellow homeschool momma, and former co-op co-teacher Renee Amato to join us in asking (and answering) questions about two systems Brittany uses daily in her homeschool!

    Clipboards 101 (00:47)Tasks Included on the Clipboards (04:45)Using the Clipboards (07:15)The "Right" Number of Tasks (11:40)Examples of Tasks (14:05)When Kids Stop Doing the Work (16:20)Kids Taking the Lead (27:33)The Beauty of the Spiral Notebook (30:30)Getting Started and...Tickets (32:45)

  • Sweet mommas, We ARE our sisters keepers.

    WE (yes…you and I in all our mess and imperfect-ness) are the first line of defense for our friends when it comes to a culture of care for women.

    On this VERY podcast, we have shared stories of several women who had reached their lowest lows, and it wasn't a mental health professional who suddenly appeared and popped up to tell them they had a problem (although they WERE a big part of the solution)…it was a close friend.

    Today we have a beautiful wife and mom to four amazing children who ALSO happens to be the licensed professional counselor behind Sacred Heart Mental Wellness.

    Catherine DiNuzzo utilizes traditional cognitive-behavioral counseling practices all through a Catholic lens, and she is here today to talk with us today about anxiety and how our mental health can show up differently in our cycles.

    Catherine DiNuzzo (00:00)What is Anxiety? (02:40)Talking TO Your Body (06:04)Anxiety & Your Cycle (09:00)Don't be a Bully...to Yourself (12:20)A Proactive Approach to Anxiety (16:40)Helping Fellow Mothers (26:52)Rapid-Fire Questions (31:53)More About Catherine DiNuzzo (34:30)

    Catherine DiNuzzo, MA is a Licensed Professional Counselor in private practice, and specializes in helping clients to overcome anxiety and depression, as well as other concerns. She is the heart and soul of Sacred Heart Mental Wellness, providing mental health information, resources, assessments, and videos for the Catholic who wants to live a mentally fit lifestyle. She and her husband, live in Kansas with their four amazing children.

    Right now, Catherine has a simple book written FOR her clients and people who love her client, called The Catholic Guide Through Anxiety (this is a quick read). She has also has a series of videos explaining mental wellness. Finally, she’s working to get out to speaking events this year…in her experience—this is the best way to serve the greatest amount of people—and she would love to speak at YOUR event (simply reach out for more info).

    And as always, sweet momma, never forget…

    You are doing beautiful work!

  • Today, we have the pleasure of chatting with Christina Valenzuela…a wife, mom of four, and the owner and creative director of Pearl & Thistle.

    She offers a unique blend of theology and science to bring better body literacy to Catholics. She's been a certified instructor in the Boston Cross Check™ method of Natural Family Planning since 2013 and her signature course, Cycle Prep, was a 2021 OSV Innovation Challenge finalist.

    She holds an undergraduate degree in Philosophy and Theology from the University of Notre Dame as well as a Masters in Theological Studies from Harvard Divinity School. She is a life-professed member of the Lay Fraternities of St. Dominic and today she is here to teach all of us how to introduce our teens (and really, the entire family) to their cycles in a beautiful way…

  • If you can believe it...each podcast is supposed to be 20 minutes long. Of course, it never works out this way (especially when we get talking!).

  • 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.

    Don’t have a business? Sterling has you covered too! You can check out her Catholic Mom Calm website, then get her new book Catholic Mom Calm. Not a reader? Check out her Catholic Mom Calm podcast. Prefer social media? Head to Instagram and see her @catholicmomcalm

    Are you ready to look at goals differently as systems? You can easily grab a spiral notebook, jot a few things down, and choose one place to start!

  • Date nights are VITAL in every stage of motherhood! Between Kathlees (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!



    The Catholic Date Night is a membership community of engaged & married couples, and once a month Jesse and Kathleen host a one-hour episode and all you have to do is click ‘play’. They offer a game and they interview a couple or Priest about marriage, and their experience of marriage, and they give you questions to answer about the interview. They can be found on Instagram @thecatholicdatenight.

    Kathleen and Jesse are also musicians! They are called Found Together…on Instagram @wearefoundtogether, and they’re releasing an EP of worship and liturgical songs, and they’re looking for some crowdfunding!

  • 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's 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.

    Our guest today is actually a high-achieving momma herself and business owner as a resilience & embodiment coach for high-achieving women. She holds a Masters in Occupational Therapy and works with overthinking, ambitious women who need to get outta their head and take it to the next level.

    She helps her clients find more ease, clarity, and confidence in their life and career using somatic techniques. Tiff and I met her at a Mastermoms Talk where she was the guest speaker and after getting a taste of her beautiful personality and her calming nature, we knew she was the perfect momma to ask about techniques for battling holiday overwhelm and stress.

  • Holiday Finances. Start Here.

    Get Creative with your holiday spending
    A better way to $pend the holidays

    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-founder 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!

    More about Amanda (49:50)

    In January 2012, FOCUS missionary Amanda Teixeira, and her husband, Jonathan, had $25,000 in debt and a deep desire to break free. A short — and zealous — seven and half months later they wrote their last check to Sallie Mae and closed the doors on debt forever. Since kicking debt to the curb, they’ve focused on saving, investing and giving in a way that set them up for total financial peace for a lifetime.

    Upon hearing their story, a few people asked them money questions — and they answered. That snowballed into hundreds of answers, speaking at events, providing financial coaching and founding WalletWin.

    Jonathan and Amanda live in Omaha, Nebraska with their three daughters, and they’re in the process of adopting baby number four.
