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 am joined by Sasha from Intentional Momlife with Jesus podcast to chat about God things vs good things. As mums and women, we have so much come across our plate - how do we know what to say yes to? How do we say no? How do we know what to prioritise in this season? We chat through these questions and more to understand why it's okay to say no to seemingly good things.

Our son started Kindergarten this year, and it hasn't gone as well as I planned. In today's episode I share what's gone on the first few months of starting school as well as things that we have implemented and done along the way to help with the transition. If your year hasn't started the way you thought, you aren't alone! The tips I share in this episode, don't just apply to school but every big seasonal change in life - moving house, having another baby.

I have noticed that there is so much knowledge and so many skills that aren't being past down to generations as often as maybe they once were. One of those being sewing - from simple mending to tailoring, this skill is one that seems lost on my peers (myself included) and that's why I wanted to bring on Naomi Fata to share with us the simple basics of starting as well as her story. Bonus - we also chat on being a mum, working from home and balancing the juggle.

This is a special episode from the Growth Against The Grain Podcast where my friend Michelle interviewed me on the topic of honouring the Lord and what it looks like practically in my life as a wife, mother, business owner and child of God. I loved this conversation so much that I wanted to share it with you too! In this conversation we talk about how tightly we hold on to our business, why a biblical foundation for everything is so important, where to find our identity, running a business for the glory of God and so much more.
