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!

Today I'm joined by Dana Kay from ADHD Thrive Institute to discuss her experience of raising a child diagnosed with ADHD and now her work as she helps hundreds of families reduce their child's symptoms naturally through a food first approach.
In this episode, Dana shares what ADHD symptoms are, what are the underlying stressors for these children, the gut-brain connection, what all kids need to be eating less and more of, plus why diet is so crucial for every child.
Dana Kay is a Board-Certified Holistic Health and Nutrition Practitioner and the CEO and founder of the ADHD Thrive Institute and the creator of the ADHD Thrive Method 4 Kids program. As a mother of a child with ADHD, she knows firsthand the struggles that come with parenting a neurodiverse child, but she also knows the freedom that is possible once parents learn to reduce ADHD symptoms. Dana's mission is to help families reduce ADHD symptoms naturally so that children with ADHD can thrive at home, at school, and in life.

Do you have a fear of failing your children? Fear of not doing enough or too much? Afraid you won't survive the toddler years? Join me for today's conversation with mother, homeschooler and author Jennifer Pepito as she shares her stories from her own journey through motherhood and how she overcame so many fear that us mums are still facing today. We chat about what are fears in motherhood, why we need to take time to overcome fear and not just cope with it, how you being afraid is impacting your family, how you can use reading to overcome fears and grow in motherhood, and so much more.
Jennifer Pepito is the founder of The Peaceful Press, a company committed to providing learning resources that promote connection between parents and children.
When self-help books failed to address her fears, Jennifer who is a mum of seven and has been homeschooling for 25 years, discovered that classic literature provided wisdom and biblical truths that helped free her and other women from the doubts they were facing. She found delight again in nurturing her kids and her children also reaped the benefits of life lessons from the stories she read aloud together.
