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!

Hey Mumma,
Family mealtime doesn't have to be complicated! In fact it should be a time of the day we all enjoy yet so many of us are stuck dreading dinner time because we either have to make different food for everyone, are dealing with picky eaters, engaging in power struggles and usually ending up with someone having a meltdown.
Today on the podcast I am joined by Jason Levee, a registered dietician from New York, who is passionate about family nutrition, and we are chatting all things when it comes to simplifying and enjoying family mealtime again no matter what difficulties you might be facing at dinner.

It can be hard to know when to bring up hard conversations and what to say, but we know as Christian parents, we want our kids to know the truth and need to set them up with a biblical foundation.
Today I am joined by Elizabeth Urbanowicz from Foundation Worldview to discuss how we can have these conversations around biblical sexuality with our kids, what age should we start bringing these ideas up, why these conversations are important, what topics to cover and how often to have these conversations.
