You're not alone. Most planner struggles aren't about the product—it's about missing key habits and mindset shifts.In this episode of Simply Convivial, I share 3 common planner mistakes that keep moms from making progress and simple ways to fix them. You'll learn:How to use a planner without filling it with wishful thinking.Why your planner setup for moms must include daily, weekly, and interval rhythms.The one habit that makes the difference between frustration and success.Whether you're a Christian homemaker, a stay at home mom juggling it all, or just searching for practical time management for moms, this episode will help you use your planner to cut through overwhelm and keep your priorities clear.

Free workshop: simplyconvivial.com/planner | Why your planner isn't working (and how to fix it)How many planners have you bought, only to find they just don't work for your life as a mom? You set them up, fill them out, and then they gather dust—or worse, make you feel more overwhelmed.In this episode of Simply Convivial, I'm sharing 3 reasons your planner might not be working and what you can do instead. Homemakers need a planning tool that fits the interruptions, unpredictability, and priorities of family life—not an executive schedule built for boardrooms and conference calls.I'll walk you through:Why your planner's design may not match your real life.How perfectionism and wishful thinking sneak into your planning pages.The number one reason planners fail (hint: it's about habits, not layouts).A working planner isn't about checking every box. It's about having a tool that helps you cut through mental clutter, make wise choices in the moment, and prevent overwhelm.

Did you know the concept of “Home” and “Making” has existed before the world began? In this message, Pastor Holly dives deep into our second Living Stone, Courageous Homemaker, challenging us to broaden our view of “homemaker”, a mostly American term and largely defined by culture. She defines who is a Kingdom Homemaker (everyone), why we all need courage to step into our roles as homemakers, and what does a Courageous Homemaker do? You will be challenged and encouraged to press into God, The First and Best Homemaker and ask, “What does this look like for me for where I am now?”

Free Planner Workshop: simplyconvivial.com/planner | Are you tired of buying planners that end up half-filled, abandoned, or stuffed in a drawer by March? You're not alone.In this episode of the Simply Convivial Podcast, I talk with Gracie—a homeschooling mom of nine who has learned how to make her planner work with her busy, interrupted days. She shares the simple systems she's landed on after lots of trial and error: a wall calendar, a two-page weekly Happy Planner spread, color coding for routines vs. events, and her game-changing weekly review habit.We also dig into:✔ How to set up a planner you'll actually look at every day✔ Why a weekly review is the secret to consistency✔ How to separate homeschool and homemaking tasks so your planner isn't cluttered✔ The surprising power of “checkmarks” and “notes to self” for staying encouragedIf you've ever wondered why your planner doesn't work for you—or if you're searching for a simple way to stay on top of your home without getting lost in perfectionism—this conversation will give you both encouragement and practical ideas you can put into practice right away.

The Invisible Mental Load of Homemakers: Why It's So Heavy and How to Lighten It Have you ever felt like your brain never switches off? From remembering dentist appointments, planning meals, keeping track of school schedules, to making sure the laundry detergent doesn't run out—it's a lot. This ongoing juggling act is what experts call the mental load, and for homemakers, it can feel overwhelming and unrelenting. In this episode, we dive into: What the mental load really is (and why it goes far beyond housework). Why homemakers often feel like the default “family manager.” The emotional weight of being the one who anticipates, plans, and organizes for everyone. Practical ways to notice, name, and begin redistributing the load. ✨ Free Resource for You ✨ To support you on this journey, I've created the Whole You Planning Tool—a simple but powerful guide to help you do a systems check for yourself and each family member.

I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode.I am chatting with homemaker, homeschooler, podcaster, and writer, Mystie Winckler, about her experience of keeping a home over the last 24 years. She candidly confesses that having come from a large family, she thought she knew everything she needed to know and that homemaking would be a piece of cake.I'm sure I don't have to tell you that her assumptions and expectations were seriously challenged by reality and she spent the first decade or so spinning her wheels in frustration. But God met her in the place of chaos and shattered pride and faithfully showed her what homemaking was really about. It's not about efficient systems that never fail, nor organized spaces that never get messy. Homemaking is about facilitating life and relationships so that the home reflects the light of the Gospel to a dark and dying world. As we chat about Mystie's lessons learned and her ministry to homemakers, we cover all the usual ground of her beginnings, influences, priorities, hospitality, tips and more. NOTES & LINKSEpisode Companion Blog Post with All ResourcesConnect with MystieWebsite | simplyconvivial.comPodcast | Simply Convivial PodcastYouTube @simplyconvivialBook | Simplified Organization; Learn to Love What Must Be DoneCommunity | Convivial CircleMentioned in this EpisodeBooks by Edith Schaeffer | The Hidden Art of Homemaking and L'AbriTrue Spirituality | Francis SchaefferScrub Daddy Kitchen SpongeSupport the showHOMEMAKING RESOURCES Private Facebook Group, Homemaker Forum Newsletter Archive JR Miller's Homemaking Study Guide SUPPORT & CONNECT Review | Love The Podcast Contact | Voicemail |Instagram | Facebook | Website | Email Follow | Follow The Podcast Support | theartofhomepodcast.com/support

Is your home a tool or a trophy? Mystie Winckler shares a personal, powerful episode reframing what it really means to be a “good homemaker.” This isn't about shiny sinks or minimalist aesthetics. It's about dominion, discipleship, and the truth that homemaking shapes the people in your home—bodies and souls alike.With honesty and conviction, Mystie dismantles the cultural lies that turn homemaking into a style statement and calls us to embrace the daily, faithful work of real organization: not for the sake of order, but for the sake of mission.

NEW - Simply Convivial Library - simplyconvivial.com/librarySummer is a season of sunshine, energy—and opportunity. Here's how to use the natural rhythm of summer to build flexible routines, cultivate cheerful productivity, and grow in self-control. Drawing from her own homemaking experience and the principles inside her Sweep and Smile course, Mystie challenges the factory-model ideal of consistency and perfection and replaces it with a more faithful—and realistic—approach: iterative progress anchored in attitude.Whether your summer looks radically different or stays mostly the same, now is the time to make hay while the sun shines—not by overhauling everything, but by learning from your experience and taking the next faithful step.

We could all tell countless stories about our teenagers years and navigating what it means to be employed for the first time, spend and save money, and all the other life lessons one learns when diving into the workplace. But how did that look for us as Mennonites? Today we reminisce about all that, as well as share age appropriate jobs and chores we have our children doing now + react to some of the craziest jobs our listeners have ever had.Thank-you to our sponsors:Voetberg Music Academy:Use our code HOMEMAKER20 to get 20% off every month your family is enrolled, and learn music in a way that sticks.https://www.voetbergmusicacademy.com/Wild: Go to https://shopwildrefill.com/HoneyImHomemaker-5 and use the code HONEYIMHOMEMAKER20 for 20% off of your purchase!!Watch our first 3 seasons: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqdjqwDnpIMx_GhVzCWsT4LF-1EsRhwJm&si=8hmyDW0lI4-yWhQ-Please subscribe!

Today, we take to the mics to talk about our thoughts after reading Phylicia Masonheimer's new book Every Home a Foundation. Themes include the purpose of your home, doing housework with the right mindset, and not fighting your season. We also include life updates since this is the beginning of a new season, and a lot has transpired since the last one. Whether a fellow homemaker or an aspiring one, we think you'll enjoy this one.Thank you to our sponsors:Voetberg Music Academy:Use our code HOMEMAKER20 to get 20% off every month your family is enrolled and learn music in a way that sticks.https://www.voetbergmusicacademy.com/Jayna's dress:https://amzn.to/3IdJQC0 Every Home a Foundation book: https://amzn.to/4eDYI8LColorful Pasta Salad | Megan Fox Unlocked https://share.google/hR6YXHmjESfLDZxgeWatch our first 3 seasons: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqdjqwDnpIMx_GhVzCWsT4LF-1EsRhwJm&si=8hmyDW0lI4-yWhQ-Please subscribe!

Brain dump guide: https://simplyconvivial.com/braindump | When life shifted, Lynsie's homemaking systems crumbled—and so did her attitude.
