How can you raise kids who follow Christ in a world that constantly pulls them in other directions, and what does it look like to parent with grace, wisdom, and a long-term perspective? In this episode of Carpool Conversations, Amy and Sara sit down with Bible teacher and author Jen Wilkin to talk about the challenges and joys of raising kids who are formed by the gospel rather than the culture around them. Drawing from decades of parenting experience, Jen shares practical wisdom for navigating everything from discipline and boundaries to peer pressure and meaningful family conversations. Together, they discuss the importance of viewing children as image bearers, balancing rules and relationship, and keeping the long view in mind when making everyday parenting decisions. Jen offers encouraging reminders for parents in every stage, helping them trade performance-driven pressure for a deeper trust in God's faithful work in both their children and themselves. Whether you're in the toddler years, navigating the teen years, or somewhere in between, this conversation will encourage you to take a deep breath, hold on to what matters most, and trust that God's grace is at work in your parenting journey.

She shares how navigating a private school environment where she often felt different shaped her confidence and sense of self., why motherhood completely shifted her perspective on relationships, and what she's learned about giving both herself and the people she loves room to grow.They also get into something so many women wrestle with: Can we be ambitious and independent while still wanting softness, love, luxury, family, and support?For Chanel, the answer is yes—but she's also learning that having it all doesn't mean doing it all.In this episode:Growing up as Nelly's daughter and building her legacyThe unexpected impact of fame and visibility on Chanel's self-esteemDating when you have to question someone's intentionsWhy Chanel's views on relationships changed after motherhoodThe difference between “settling” and allowing your partner room to growHow motherhood helped Chanel slow down and become more intentionalEntrepreneurship, ambition, and avoiding burnoutWhy women shouldn't have to choose between softness and successLearning to accept help instead of always doing everything yourselfThe childhood experiences that shaped Chanel's instinct to nurtureWhy she created the Mom for Life platformGiving our parents grace when we finally understand how young they wereWhat Chanel hopes her younger self would think of the woman she is todayChanel's story is a reminder that you can appreciate where you came from without allowing it to define where you're going.You can be a mother and an entrepreneur.

Life is a marathon with obstacles, and motherhood has a way of making sure we're always climbing something.In this episode, Casia reflects on completing her first Spartan Race and the lessons hidden beneath the mud: showing up before you feel ready, continuing after failure, letting go of comparison, leaning on God, and discovering that motherhood may have been preparing you for difficult climbs all along.Plus, music, the greatness of DunkleSlam and an important reminder that crossing one finish line doesn't mean the uphill battle is over.Whether your current obstacle is visible or one nobody else can see, Mud, Music, & Motherhood is an hour of encouragement for every mom still putting one foot in front of the other.You don't have to move fast.

This week, we're diving into Netflix's Maternal Instinct... and let's just say our blood pressure didn't survive the experience.What started as "Let's watch a documentary" quickly turned into three moms pausing the TV every five minutes to ask, "Girl... WHAT are you doing?!" We break down the real case, unpack the documentary, roast one unbelievably delusional woman far more often than we probably should, and somehow still leave with even more questions than we started with.Trigger Warning: This episode discusses the real-life murder of a pregnant woman, fetal abduction, infant death, pregnancy loss, violence, trauma, and grief. While we don't sensationalize the events or focus on graphic details, these topics are central to both the documentary and our conversation.So grab a snack, pull up a chair in the living room, and come process this absolutely wild documentary with us.YouTube PlaylistSend us Fan Mail Support the showFor moms who need music, honesty, laughter, and a soft place to land after a hard day...

How can something as simple as play help your child grow in their faith, and how can you make play a natural part of your family's everyday rhythms? In this episode of Carpool Conversations, Amy and Sara sit down with Brittany Compton to talk about the powerful purpose behind play. While play often comes naturally to kids, Brittany reminds parents that it is far more than just fun – it's how kids learn, grow, process emotions, build resilience, and connect with the world God made. Together, they discuss how simple, everyday moments of play can strengthen the parent-child bond, create space for meaningful faith conversations, and remind kids that they are loved, valued, and delighted in. From bath time and dinner games to backyard adventures and board games, this conversation is full of practical encouragement for parents who want to be more present and intentional. Whether play comes easily to you or feels like something you have to work at, this episode will encourage you to start small, have fun, and never underestimate what God can do through a few intentional moments with your kids.

What does it mean to be the eldest daughter?In this episode of Moms and Their Music, we explore the unique experience of growing up as the firstborn daughter and the expectations that often come with that role.From responsibility and leadership to sibling dynamics, people-pleasing tendencies, and the pressure to "set the example," we discuss how being the eldest daughter can shape both childhood and adulthood in ways that are often overlooked. We also chat for a while about what it's like to raise an eldest daughter.Whether you're an eldest daughter yourself, raising one, married to one, or still recovering from being told "you're the oldest" every time something went wrong, this episode is for you.We laugh our way through sibling dynamics, unrealistic expectations, responsibility that somehow gets assigned by birth order, and the strange phenomenon of eldest daughters becoming unofficial assistant managers of the family before they're even old enough to drive.As Moms and Their Music continues to grow, we're also entering a season of intentional development behind the scenes. We're exploring new ideas, refining how we connect with our audience, and laying the groundwork for exciting additions still to come.Thank you for being part of the journey.

In this episode of Legacy - A Mom Podcast, Tina and Britt unpack the powerful biblical principle of reaping and sowing—and what it means for your faith, your choices, and the legacy you're building as a Christian mom. After a real-life garden lesson (and a reminder from Matthew 13 that roots matter), they dive into Galatians 6:7–8 to explain why “you reap what you sow” is not karma—it's God's moral order. You'll hear eye-opening Old Testament connections that show how seeds of deception, integrity, and obedience produce specific outcomes across generations, plus hope-filled examples of Joseph andHannah that encourage moms to keep sowing faithfulness in hidden seasons.· What sowing to the flesh vs. sowing to the Spirit looks like in everyday life (Galatians 6:7–8)· Why you reap later than you sow—and often more than you planted· How God uses Scripture details to connect thedots: Jacob & Esau (Genesis 27), Jacob & Laban (Genesis 29), Judah & Tamar (Genesis 38), Pharaoh & the Red Sea (Exodus 1–14)· Encouragement for moms: small seeds of prayer,gentleness, and forgiveness can become generational fruit (Joseph; Hannah in 1 Samuel 1)· Practical reflection: What seeds are you planting in your home—peace or anxiety, kindness or bitterness, worship or apathy?Keywords: Christian parenting, biblical motherhood, reapingand sowing, Galatians 6:7-8, spiritual legacy, Christian mom encouragement, faith and parenting, Bible study podcast, Old Testament patterns, parable of the sower, prayer for children, generational legacy.If this conversation encouraged you, follow Legacy and MomPodcast for more Bible-centered conversations on parenting, faith, and building a legacy that lasts.

In this episode of Carpool Conversations, Amy and Marissa sit down with author, speaker, and podcast host Tara Sun to talk about something every parent feels but rarely escapes—overwhelm. Between packed schedules, constant noise, and the pressure to “do it all,” finding peace can feel out of reach. Drawing from her book Overbooked and Overwhelmed, Tara shares her personal story of hitting a turning point that revealed just how disconnected she had become—from God, from her purpose, and even from the present moments of motherhood. With honesty and encouragement, she reminds parents that peace isn't found in perfect systems or better time management, but in a deeper awareness of God's presence in the middle of everyday chaos. Together, they explore what it looks like to shift your mindset, slow down internally (even when life doesn't), and reconnect with what truly matters. Tara offers practical, grace-filled strategies for navigating overstimulation, cultivating self-awareness, and breaking free from the cycle of constant busyness. If you're feeling stretched thin, mentally exhausted, or just longing for a little more calm in your parenting journey, this conversation will meet you right where you are—and point you toward lasting peace.

After nearly a decade of podcasting, the Doctor Mom Podcast is back with a bold new format built around what busy moms actually need: shorter, more practical, pediatric-focused episodes that fit into your real life. Dr. Elana and Steph Greunke walk you through everything changing this season and why. Solo episodes are now 10 to 20 minutes, the podcast is live on YouTube, and the content is going deeper on the pediatric topics you care most about. Dr. Elana previews her upcoming solo topics including immune support strategies, the cold wet sock method for fevers, Tylenol alternatives, and everything moms need to know about pinworms. Steph shares her lineup covering iron deficiency in kids, hydration and electrolytes, vitamin D supplementation, and summer nutrition for the whole family. They also preview upcoming interviews on holistic allergy solutions, vaccine advocacy after the new CDC schedule updates, fiber and kids gut health, and sports nutrition for young athletes. Beyond the podcast updates, they get honest about screen time boundaries that actually hold, navigating months of home disruption with a crawling baby in tow, and how Dr. Elana is approaching solid foods differently this time using a gut-healing GAPS-inspired method after a family history of eczema and food allergies. Pull up a chair, mama. This one is worth every minute.

There's a voice in you that doesn't need proof… but somehow we're always asking it for receipts.This episode lives in that space.The gut feeling you tried to explain away. The moment you second-guessed… then circled back like, “yeah… I knew.”We're getting into what it actually looks like to trust that voice, how easily we override it, and what changes when you start listening differently; especially when your faith is part of the conversation.This one's not loud… but it sticks.YouTube PlaylistNational Library Of Medicine ArticleNational Institute of Mental Health ArticleMonster Nanny ArticleWashington Post ArticleSend us Fan Mail Support the show
This week, we're talking mac & cheese success stories, dusty closets, March Madness, and a few hot takes on pop culture—but underneath it all, we're asking a bigger question:Why are we so tired?Nothing's wrong. Life is good. And yet… we're running on empty.We get real about what self-care actually looks like right now—from cold plunge curiosity to the reality of trying to recharge without adding more to your plate. It's honest, relatable, and probably exactly how you've been feeling too.00:00 Cold Plunge Debate & Self-Care Curiosity01:13 Welcome to Three Lil Fishes01:50 Mac & Cheese Stress Test (Lacrosse Team Story)04:17 Closet Clean-Out & Allergy Realization06:23 Easter Traditions & Lamb Cake Competition09:12 Episode Overview + Call to Action10:32 March Madness Talk & Final Four Picks12:00 JFK Jr. & Carolyn Bessette Series चर्चा16:12 Would You Want to Be Famous?17:39 Tiger Woods & Accountability Debate20:16 Howie Mandel Controversy22:10 Why Are We So Tired?23:02 What Does Real Self-Care Look Like?23:24 Cold Plunge Plan (Would You Try It?)
Making friends as a mom is harder than dating… and somehow more confusing Making friends as a mom comes with a lot of questions…Like: “Are we close?” “Are our kids the reason we talk?” “Do I text first or is that too much?”In this episode of Moms and Their Music, we're talking about the reality of friendships in motherhood — the effort it takes, the awkwardness of making new connections, and why keeping friendships strong can feel harder than it used to.We also dive into the differences between friendships with moms and friendships with friends who don't have kids — and how both can feel meaningful, but very different.It's honest, a little chaotic, and very much a “you're not the only one figuring this out as you go” kind of conversation.Youtube Playlist -There's not much on there for this one, honestly.

This week, the sisters cover a lot of ground—from a surprisingly effective skincare tip you'll want to remember, to the very real stress of figuring out what to wear to a black tie optional wedding without losing your mind (or your budget).In “What's the Buzz,” things take a turn into the irrational (and maybe not-so-irrational) as they unpack fears around flying, bridges, gondolas, and self-driving cars—basically, all the ways modern life can quietly freak you out.Then it's onto the main event: surviving the back half of the school year. With junior year in full swing, the conversation gets honest about burnout, pressure, and the myth that effort always equals results. The sisters share practical advice for both parents and kids—how to communicate better, when to step in, and why building relationships (not just GPAs) actually matters.And in “What's for Dinner,” Kathy takes on the ambitious task of making mac and cheese for 50 lacrosse players… and lives to tell the tale (barely). Spoiler: it involves a new food processor, a kitchen disaster, and a lot of cheese.As always head to threelilfishes.com/shownotes for links and recipes.

A single dad. A teenage daughter. And the moment parenting shifts from protecting to preparing. This week on Moms and Their Music, we open the door to a different side of the parenting experience.In our first-ever Dad-isode, our anchor host sits down with Billy Boy, a single father raising a teenage daughter as she steps into a new phase of independence.What unfolds is a conversation about trust, growth, and the delicate balance between holding on and letting go.From navigating the teenage years to reflecting on the role music plays in shaping memories and connection, this episode highlights the often-unspoken thoughts behind fatherhood; especially when raising a daughter.It's a perspective that is rarely centered, but deeply important.Youtube Playlist for this EpisodeSend us Fan Mail Support the show
Kids experience a lot of emotions—and sometimes those feelings can change by the minute. As parents, it can be hard to know how to help our kids understand what they're feeling and express themselves in healthy ways. In this episode we sit down with author, speaker, and family coach Dr. Josh Straub to talk about why emotional awareness matters and how parents can create space for meaningful conversations about feelings. Josh and his wife, Christi, have dedicated their work to helping families grow in emotional intelligence and healthy relationships. Together, they've written a children's book series designed to help kids name and navigate their emotions. In this conversation, they discuss why helping kids identify their feelings is such an important part of spiritual and emotional growth, how simple tools can help kids express what they're feeling, and how parents can guide their children to invite God into every emotion—from anger and worry to joy and gratitude. If you've ever wondered how to help your child talk about big emotions—or how to respond with empathy when feelings run high—this episode offers practical encouragement and simple ways to start meaningful, faith-centered conversations at home. -- Meet our guest: Josh Straub Book: What Am I Feeling - by Dr. Josh Straub & Christi Straub Book: What Do I Do With Anger?

Send a textThe Active Mom Podcast just crossed 100,000 downloads and 200+ episodes, which honestly feels a little surreal. So for this one, I did something a little different… In this solo episode, I reflect on how the podcast started back when it was the Active Mom Postpartum Podcast, how it evolved into conversations about pregnancy, postpartum, pelvic floor health, return to running, perimenopause, and menopause, and some of the guests and moments that shaped the show along the way.I talk about the interviews that challenged my thinking the most, the hardest episodes to record, and how talking with researchers, clinicians, athletes, and everyday moms has changed the way I practice as a pelvic floor physical therapist.This podcast has always been about one thing: making women's health research, pelvic floor information, women's stories and real conversations about movement and performance more accessible.In this episode I talk about:• Why I started the Active Mom Podcast • What it means to reach 100,000 downloads in a very niche space • How the show evolved from postpartum conversations to women's health across the lifespan • Some of the guests and research conversations that shaped my thinking • The episodes that were the hardest to record • Misunderstandings that still exist around pelvic floor function and exercise • What I hope the next chapter of the podcast createsIf you've been listening for a while, I'd love to hear your favorite episode or guest — send me a message and let me know.If this podcast has helped you feel more informed, less alone, or more confident navigating symptoms like leakage, prolapse, pain, or return to running, I'd love for you to share it with a friend or leave a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐review.Thanks for being here and for helping make 200 episodes possible.Topics discussed: pelvic floor health, postpartum recovery, return to running, women's health, pregnancy exercise, perimenopause, menopause, prolapse, leakage, research in women's healthTime Stamps1:00 Introduction2:57 quick fire questions7:20 why I started the podcast11:31 how the show has evolved15:39 shifts in clinical practice19:44 new things we've learned22:17 difficult episodes to record27:14 looking back at the start30:55 most overused phrases in women's health36:27 changing your mind over timeCONNECT WITH CARRIEIf you're looking for deeper support — whether you're postpartum, navigating perimenopause, or trying to run and lift without symptoms — reach out.

From the pressure to “get it right” to the constant second-guessing, so many of us carry quiet questions in motherhood: Am I doing enough? Am I messing this up? Am I a good mom? In this episode of Carpool Conversations, Sara and Marissa sit down with author and podcast host Hallie Dye to talk honestly about the weight moms carry—and the freedom found in surrendering that weight to the One who never fails. Hallie shares the heart behind her first book, You're Still a Good Mom: Motherhood Surrendered to the One Who Never Fails, and unpacks what it really means to be “a good mom” from a biblical perspective. Together, they discuss why our limitations are by design, how surrender reshapes the way we approach our roles, and how to navigate the tension between responsibility and trust in God. Whether you're in the thick of diapers and sleepless nights or navigating new challenges with older kids, this conversation is a gentle reminder: your worth was never meant to be measured by your performance. You are still a good mom. -- Meet our guest: Hallie Dye Book: You're Still a Good Mom: Motherhood Surrendered to the One Who Never Fails Podcast: The Saltworks -- Question of the Week: What is something you enjoy and want me to keep doing as your mom/dad? -- Hosts: Sara Jones & Marissa Ray Guest: Hallie Dye Producers: Emily Alters & Cody Braun -- Learn more about WinShape Camps at WinShapeCamps.org!

⬇️ What are the ways to increase longevity in your senior pet's life ⬇️The worst part about having a dog is how few years they have on this earth. But what if we can help lengthen their lifespan with new breakthroughs in medicine?Today I talk with Dr. Kevin Toman, a vet with 40 years of experience, claims that there are protocols that can extend a pet's live by 14%!

In this episode of the Always Andy's Mom Podcast, I'm joined by Taylor, a grieving father who shares the story of his son, Ray, who was stillborn late in pregnancy. Taylor talks about the moment fatherhood became real for him — feeling Ray kick for the first time — and the joy and anticipation that followed a healthy 20-week scan. Then, at 27 weeks, everything changed. Ray's heartbeat was gone. Taylor and his wife went through labor and delivery knowing there would be no living baby at the end, followed by precious time holding their son and saying goodbye. Taylor speaks openly about the emotions that came next: the anger that surprised him, the fear that the world no longer felt safe, and the weight of realizing that some things cannot be fixed. As a father, he felt the pressure to stay strong, even while grieving deeply himself. One of the most moving parts of this conversation is how Taylor found healing through an unexpected outlet. At the suggestion of his wife, he taught himself how to crochet using yarn that had been purchased for Ray. What started as a simple way to stay busy became a form of connection and comfort. With each stitch, Taylor found a way to honor his son, quiet his thoughts, and give his grief somewhere to go. Today, Taylor continues to crochet — creating hats, keepsakes, and donations — each piece carrying love, remembrance, and Ray's presence forward. This episode is a powerful reminder that grief doesn't disappear, but it can transform. Healing sometimes comes not through words, but through the work of our hands.

In this episode of the Always Andy's Mom Podcast, host Marie Crews speaks with Lisa Oris, founder of Grief Guide, about why grief is not linear and why loss cannot be reduced to stages, stories, or a tidy "journey." Lisa shares a powerful metaphor for grief — how loss "blows up the dresser," leaving emotions scattered and overlapping rather than neatly contained. Together, they explore the harm caused by cultural expectations to be strong, move on, or turn grief into a success story. This episode is for bereaved parents and grieving mothers who feel overwhelmed, unfinished, or exhausted by the pressure to heal correctly. It offers permission to grieve honestly, without apology or timelines.
