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!

179/ How Busy Mums Can Still Achieve Their Fitness Goals [with Tara Gosselink]
Tuesday Nov 21, 2023
Tuesday Nov 21, 2023
There's a lot of sacrifice when it comes to being a mum, not to mention you are just really busy; all the time! Too many mums give up on their own health and fitness because it seems too hard or overwhelming. Today on the podcast I am joined by health coach Tara Gosselink to chat around how mums (even busy mums with toddlers) can still achieve their health and fitness goals without giving up their lifestyle and how to keep it really simple so it is doable. In this episode we tackle the all or nothing mindset and why that is setting you up for failure, whether we should really focus on weight and how to create motivation that lasts more than two weeks!
It's time to get moving Mumma!

I used to think that morning routines, or any routine in general, had to be an elaborate but rigid structure and for someone who prefers to go with the flow that did not sound appealing at all. But once I became a mum, especially after my second was born, I discovered how important they are for mums and how they can actually bring MORE peace and freedom in your day. Listen in to today's episode as I share why mums benefit from starting their day well and I will share my ridiculously simple morning routine.
