Do you know taking care of yourself is important but find yourself the first one to neglect it?

What if you could create personal rhythms that align with your God-given mission instead of just adding more to your to-do list?

Are you exhausted from parenting kids with additional needs and feeling like you have nothing left to pour into your marriage?

In this conversation, I had so much fun sitting down with my personal coach Aubree Felderhoff to discuss creating personal rhythms for yourself and marriage. This is Part 4 of the Mission-Plan-Rhythms series, completing the framework for moving from survival mode to thriving.

I'm being really vulnerable in this episode because while I can create beautiful rhythms for my family, in that past, I've been the first one to neglect taking care of myself and my marriage. Aubree walks me (and you!) through practical strategies for building rhythms that align with your mission, strengthening your marriage, and preventing burnout. From the "brain dump" strategy to weekly marriage meetings, this episode is packed with actionable tools for exhausted moms.

4. Schedule a marriage meeting - Pick a weekly time and protect it
5. Create a shared list with your spouse - Add items throughout the week
6. Ask yourself: What would make my life more breathable if I fixed it first?

Are you exhausted from trying to keep up with rigid schedules that fall apart the moment life doesn't cooperate?

What if your ADHD or autistic child could have the predictability they need WITHOUT the stress of time-blocked schedules?

Have you ever had a day so hard you just wanted to quit - but somehow you made it through smoothly? What if you could create THAT feeling on purpose?

After saying goodbye to our beloved dog, I woke up ready to give up on the day - but rhythms carried our family through peacefully. Learn the crucial difference between rigid schedules and flexible rhythms, why all kids thrive with rhythms, and practical examples for both homeschool AND traditional school families.

This completes the trilogy:

• Mission = WHY you do this
• R.E.S.T. Framework = WHAT to do on hard days
• Rhythms = HOW to make it all sustainable

Have you ever had a day where you're just barely getting by - trying not to fall apart while every little thing your kids say feels like nails on a chalkboard?

What if you could have a simple plan for those hard days that's easy enough to remember even when your brain is foggy, but practical enough that it actually works?

Are you tired of white-knuckling your way to bedtime and wondering why you can't just handle the "smaller" struggles better?

In this episode, I share my own recent struggle with a hard day and walk you through the R.E.S.T. Framework - a simple acronym to help you move from survival mode to actually making it through without regrets.

You'll learn how to recognize your warning signs before you break, why routine actually helps when you're falling apart, practical tools to calm your nervous system in minutes, and how to release the guilt around needing rest and respite. This episode is for every mama who's tired of just surviving and ready to have a plan for her hardest days.
