Do you struggle to maintain the home without sacrificing time with your kids? Do you feel guilty for sitting your kids in front of a screen so you can get everything done? Are you going to bed feeling overwhelmed and scattered? Do you find yourself stuck in survival mode, counting down to bedtime (and then feeling bad about it)? Do you want to live more holistically and go low-tox but don’t know where to start? What if there was a way to partner biblical parenting with holistic homemaking so you had the systems, routines, and mindset to actually have more time and balance between home and motherhood? It’s possible, Let me show you how! In the Wholesome Mumma find conversations on biblical parenting for the SAHM Christian mum, a holistic view on homemaking and how you can make small changes to better your homemaking plus tips and tricks for staying on top of the housework whilst balancing time with God, your husband, children and even yourself. I’m Elyse, lover of Jesus, married to my best friend, mum of 3 littles and living life on the beach. I remember what it was like to be a new mum - I was frustrated with motherhood, drowning in housework, and struggling to find time to balance it all. I wondered how to help my kids know Jesus when I couldn’t get my toddler to stop throwing a tantrum long enough to open the bible. I went on a journey to discover God’s plan and purpose for mothers. 3 John 1:2 says “I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in good health, just as your soul prospers” and I know this includes mothers. So if you are ready to lean on Jesus in your motherhood, find contentment in homemaking and all that God has for you in this season then grab your cup of tea, reheat it, because you know, and let’s go!

Did your pregnancy, birth or postpartum journey not quite go as you had planned? Or maybe your life doesn't look how you were expecting it to as a mother? In today's episode, we are chatting about what to do when disappointments arise. You only have to be a mother for a day to realise that things don't always work out how we think they should. What we do with the feelings of disappointment is what matters, and in this podcast we are going to look at what the bible says about it and how we as Christian mums can move forward.

Recently I've been on a search to see more of the goodness of God, not that it wasn't there, just that my "eyes" weren't noticing it. In today's episode I share with you how this has brought me to a point of being very intentional with certain things that I want to leave behind and not allow into 2023 and seeking out what I want more of this year. From certain thought patterns to my priorities, I pray that this episode encourages and stirs you to do the same!
