    72 | Learning to Let Go and Depend on God - Devotion
    Apr 10 2026

    Live 45-minute workshop on Zoom (it's free!) April 21, @ 1:00 pm PST ~ 2:00 pm MST ~ 3:00 pm CST ~ 4:00 pm EST (Pick your time zone) https://timeformom.carrd.co/

    ----more----Do you have emotional “empty boxes” — mom guilt, comparison, or old routines — you're holding onto?

    Have you been carrying hurt, dreams, or expectations that God is asking you to release so you can rebuild healthier priorities?

    Are you keeping things—physical or emotional—that are actually doing damage to your family?

    If so, you’re in the right place.

    Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom.

    In this episode, I’m sharing how boxes of stuff, literal or figurative can clutter our lives so you can see where God is asking you to let go and make room for new things.

    • Letting go makes room for what God actually wants to give you.

    • Hoarding—physical or emotional—quietly drains your capacity.

    • Invisible boxes (hurt, dreams, grudges) weigh more than the real ones.

    • Forgiveness is releasing what’s poisoning your heart, not excusing the hurt.

    • God can’t fill what you refuse to empty.

    70 | Finding God in Your Mundane Motherhood Moments - Devotion
    Apr 3 2026
    Do you ever feel like you’re stuck in a never‑ending valley season — where motherhood, marriage, or life just feels heavy and unrelenting? Have you walked through days that feel more like survival than growth, wondering why God would allow so many low moments at once? Are you longing for reassurance that the hard, mundane, or painful parts of your story actually have purpose? If so, you’re in the right place. Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom. In this episode, I’m sharing a devotional inspired by Jane Eggleston’s poem “It’s in the Valleys I Grow.” We’re talking about why the valleys of motherhood — the grief, the overwhelm, the mundane, the emotionally draining moments — are often the very places where God grows us the most. From the weight of daily responsibilities to the deeper struggles we don’t always talk about, God uses these low places to strengthen us, shape our character, and draw us closer to Him. 🌿 Tangible Takeaways for Moms 1. God grows you in the low places The valley seasons — the heavy, mundane, or painful ones — are where your roots deepen. 2. Your struggles have purpose Nothing you’re walking through is wasted. God uses even the hard moments to shape you. 3. God is steady in every season You may not understand the valley, but He’s with you in it, guiding and strengthening you. 4. The everyday moments matter Even the repetitive, ordinary parts of motherhood are places where God is working in you.

  • 69 | 3 Time Management Tips for Moms to Find Routines That Fit You

    69 | 3 Time Management Tips for Moms to Find Routines That Fit You
    Apr 1 2026
    Does every time management hack, routine and schedule leave you frustrated and overwhelmed? Do you want to prioritize finding routines so you can finally have a schedule that works? Are you comparing what works for everyone else and wonder what you are doing wrong? If so, you’re in the right place. Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom. In this episode, I’m sharing 3 tangible time management tips so you can start finding those routines that actually work with you, your family, and your life. 🌿 Tangible Takeaways for Moms 1. Build your routines on a foundation of time with God Start with one small, consistent moment with God each day — a verse, a prayer, a conversation. Ask God to shape your schedule instead of trying to force someone else’s system onto your life. 2. Experiment without guilt Try one new routine this week — morning rhythm, cleaning flow, bedtime structure — and treat it like an experiment, not a test. When something doesn’t work, don’t label it a failure. Adjust and keep going. 3. Work with your God‑given wiring Choose routines that match your personality, energy levels, and season of motherhood. Ask yourself: Does this routine support my family’s real life, or am I trying to squeeze us into someone else’s mold? 4. Give yourself grace every single day Replace self‑criticism with curiosity: What can I learn from this moment instead of beating myself up? Remember: motherhood isn’t defined by perfection but by how you rise, repair, and keep loving.

    68 | You Prayed for Growth, but Not the Storm That Brings It - Devotion
    Mar 27 2026
    Do you ever feel like you’re stuck in a “winter season” of motherhood — where everything feels heavy, repetitive, or draining — and wonder if you’re doing something wrong? Have you caught yourself comparing your messy, stormy days to another mom’s sunshine moments and instantly felt your self-worth drop? Are you holding onto routines, expectations, or priorities that used to work in a different season of motherhood but now only leave you overwhelmed or guilty? If so, you’re in the right place. Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom. In this episode, I’m sharing how life mirrors storms, there is good that can come out of the bad, and how God is still in the middle with us so you can learn to recognize God in the middle of your circumstances. 1. Every season has a purpose — even the ones that feel cold, dark, or hopeless. Winter seasons may feel like death or loss, but they’re often clearing space for something new to grow. 🌧️ 2. Growth requires storms — not comfort. Spring storms are uncomfortable, messy, and disruptive, yet they’re the very thing that produces maturity, strength, and new life. 🌞 3. Joy becomes deeper when you’ve walked through seasons of hardship. We appreciate the “summer” seasons more fully because we’ve endured the cold and the storms that came before them. 🌱 4. God uses endings to make room for beginnings. Sometimes He brings things to a close so you can step into a new season without being held back by what once was. 🙌 5. Whatever season you’re in, God is steady, present, and intentional. He is the same in winter, spring, and summer — and He is using your current season to shape you, grow you, and draw you closer to Him.

    67 | The Storm, the Crumbling, and the God Who Still Holds Me
    Mar 25 2026

    Does motherhood feel like a never-ending wave of storms?

    Are you wondering where God is when everything is falling apart?

    Do you know who God is when life is hard?

    If so, you’re in the right place.

    Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom.

    In this episode, I’m sharing how God is still present even when life is hard and maybe even a little depressed. No matter how messy mom life is, how perfect other people's lives seem compared to yours, or if your self-worth crumbling as fast as your overcooked meatloaf, God is there.

    Key takeaways:

    • Life is filled with storms AND times of beauty and peace.
    • Like it or not, moms set the tone for the home. Our kids feed off of our emotions and so do our husbands.
    • I hold myself to a higher standard of behavior and ultimately fail because I'm not that good.
    • Reminding yourself of who God really is, not what society says he is.
    • I know who God is because I have seen who he is in the hard times.
    • God is the only thing that has not crumbled in my life.
    • God is in the storm.

    66 | Death, Bullying, and Christ-Like Love in Children – Devotion
    Mar 20 2026

    Does your child handle life better than you?

    Have you needed to guide your child through a hard situation and been the one who is taught a lesson?

    Are you wondering if anything you've been trying to teach your children is sinking in?

    If so, you’re in the right place.

    Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom.

    In this episode, I’m sharing how life has shaped my child in ways my routines couldn't so you can walk with your child through life we can't protect them from forever.

    When your child faces loss or cruelty for the first time, it does something inside you. This episode walks through a moment where my daughter’s compassion outshined my instinctive reactions — and how God used that to reshape my heart. From navigating grief to responding to bullying, this devotional reminds moms that our kids often model Christlike love long before we think they can.

    • Kids often model God’s love more clearly than adults do.
    • Your first reaction isn’t always your best reaction.
    • Mom guilt shows up, but God uses it to refine your priorities.
    • Encouraging your child in the little things strengthens their self-worth.
    • Parenting moments can grow your heart in ways routines never will.

    65 | Stop Believing Mom Guilt. Being Healthy Makes You a Better Mom - Guest Christa Baker
    Mar 18 2026
    • Are you constantly exhausted but can't fall asleep?
    • Do you consistently skip breakfast?
    • Have you felt guilty for taking a shower longer than 5 minutes?

    Momma, you're being lied to. It's time to prioritize your health out of obedience to God.

    Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom.

    In this episode, I’m sharing why being healthy isn’t selfish — it’s stewardship, so you can ditch the mom guilt and make your health a priority.

    • “I Don’t Have Time” is the biggest lie moms believe.

    • Taking care of your health is not selfish — it’s stewardship

    • God calls moms to steward their bodies, not run them into the ground.

    • Health requires movement and nutrition, not perfection.

    • Mom guilt is destroying health routines

    • Taking time to make healthy decisions – to prioritize caring for our bodies is an act of obedience to the Lord.

    • 15 minutes is enough to make a difference in your health.
