The Go-To Podcast for Busy, Christian Moms Who Want to Get More Done and Still Be Present With Their Family! ***TOP 1% GLOBALLY RANKED PODCAST *** Are you constantly trying out new daily routines that have you juggling house chores and cramming in work during nap times? Do you feel guilty when your kiddos invite you to play, but by the time you’ve told them ’just a minute,’ ’hang on,’ or ’let me finish this’, the day has slipped away with no intentional focused time together at all? Does your brain feel like it will never just SHUT OFF with your continuously running to-do list? I’m SO excited you’re here!! This podcast will help you create simple systems, daily routines, and time management strategies to feel more productive in your days so you can balance running a home AND being fully present for your kiddos. Hey, I’m KyAnn. A mom, wife, and Jesus lover. For too many years, I let my habits just sort of happen without much intention or thought. I felt constantly behind and I was trying to do it all, but doing NONE of it well. I was chasing business success, achievements, and hustle culture that stole my time and mental health so I didn’t have any extra energy to devote to building intentional habits that kept my priorities in the RIGHT order. I finally realized that if I was going to balance motherhood and homemaking well, I had to find simple routines and systems to serve me in the season I was in. I created daily rhythms for our family that reflected my priorities and helped me tackle my to-do list, all while allowing me to be fully present with my kiddos - simple systems that when practiced well, even allowed extra time to work on my business during the cracks of time during the day. And now I’m ready to share it all with you! If you are ready to finally find a routine that works for you…steps to feel more balanced and less overwhelmed in your days as a busy mom…systems that give you your time back, help you to be more present with the people you love most, and finally get your brain to just RELAX-this podcast is for you! Pop in your single AirPod (mom friends, you know you do this, too!), grab your iced coffee, it’s time to find your rhythm!

Ever feel like no matter how much you get done, it’s never enough? Like you’re checking off boxes all day long but still ending the day exhausted and behind? As moms balancing business, home, and everything in between, it’s so easy to believe the lie that we should always be doing more. And when we can't keep up, we start to question if something is wrong with us.
In this episode, we’re CELEBRATING the podcast officially being in the world for ONE WHOLE YEAR (can you even believe that?!) and I’m sharing 2 huge announcements so stay tuned for all the details!
I’m also diving into 3 must-have rhythms every entrepreneur mom needs—especially if you know what to do but just can’t seem to follow through. We’ll talk about why time management may not actually be your root problem, how your rhythms can actually support your energy and focus, and the small shifts that make a big difference when you're juggling business and motherhood. If you’re ready to move from spinning your wheels to steady momentum, this episode will feel like the permission slip and practical support you’ve been craving.
Hugs!

Ever catch yourself wondering WHY does it feel like I’m always behind on business, home and everything in between? I should know how to do this by now. As moms, we feel the constant pressure to “do it all” without dropping a single ball. If you’ve been quietly carrying the weight of overwhelm, feeling behind, or wondering why everyone else seems to have it figured out, you’re not alone, my friend.
In this episode, I’m calling out one of the most common lies that keep moms stuck in burnout and comparison. I’ll walk you through where this belief comes from, how it plays out in your everyday life and what you can do to shift it. You’ll see how your thoughts actually shape your feelings and actions—and how replacing just one thought can bring more clarity, support, and confidence into your days. If you’re ready to stop spinning your wheels and approach motherhood and business in a more life-giving way, I pray this conversation meets you right where you are.
Hugs!

Welcome, friend, to another Memos in the Margins episode where we’re talking about the one ingredient that actually leads to real, lasting change—especially in the thick of motherhood. If you’ve ever found yourself snapping at your kids, running on empty, and unsure how to shift into a version of motherhood that actually feels life-giving, this episode will speak right to that. We’re digging into what it really takes to move from survival mode to a season of balance as a wife, mom and business owner.
You’ll also hear a real-life moment that unfolded mid-recording involving a baby squirrel and my daughter (TBD how this will turn out). It’s a reminder that even in the chaos, growth is possible—and often found in the most unexpected places.
I pray this episode encourages you!
Hugs!

Birthdays used to feel like a marathon in our house with so much excitement, planning, and honestly, so much overwhelm. In the early years of motherhood, I found myself going all out, trying to make birthdays as magical as possible, only to end up completely drained by the time it was all over. With multiple kids, it started feeling like birthday celebrations stretched on for weeks and I knew something had to change.
In today’s Memos in the Margins episode, I’m sharing how we’ve created a birthday rhythm that keeps the magic without the chaos. From simple traditions to realistic shifts that fit our season of life, I’m talking about what’s worked, what we’ve adjusted and how we make birthdays feel special without stretching ourselves too thin.
I pray this episode encourages you!
Hugs!

Sometimes the lessons we need most come in the middle of everyday motherhood—like managing a toddler meltdown over a stuffed animal. In this episode, I’m reflecting on the unexpected ways life has been teaching, stretching, and refining me in this season of motherhood.
We’re also talking about the fact that you’ll never get what you want if you don’t ask for it. It doesn’t mean you’ll always get a yes, but not asking at all guarantees a no. This simple truth had me reflecting on where I’ve been holding back—especially in my faith—and what it looks like to surrender and pray bold prayers, even when it feels uncomfortable. I’m also sharing an update on my new daily habit and how it’s been transforming my mindset.
I pray this episode encourages you!
Hugs!

Does adding more structure to your days feel like it would just add more stress? Maybe you love the idea of routines but worry that scheduling everything will leave you feeling stuck or overwhelmed. As a mom, some days just don’t go as planned, and the idea of sticking to a set schedule can feel impossible. But what if I told you that having structure actually gives you more freedom?
In today’s episode, inspired by a listener’s question, I’m sharing how to create flexible structure in your days so you can keep your home and life running smoothly—without feeling tied down to a strict schedule.
I pray this episode encourages you.
Hugs!

In today’s Memos in the Margins episode, I’m sharing a simple habit I DON’T do daily—but really need to—and why I’m finally making it a priority (with a little help from you for accountability!). Plus, a late-night Walmart run that reminded me how small routines can make a big difference in mom life.
I’m also talking about a simple yet powerful tool I turn to whenever my mind starts spiraling with all the endless to-dos. This strategy helps me reset, refocus, and avoid getting stuck in overwhelm, which I know so many of us struggle with. If you’ve ever felt buried under your mental checklist, this one’s for you!
I pray this episode encourages you!
Hugs!

You know that task on your to-do list that keeps getting pushed off, even though you know it would simplify your life in the long run? Decluttering can often feel like a never-ending task that is always lurking in the background. Finding time to clear the clutter when you’re already juggling kids, home and maybe even a business can feel impossible. That’s why I’m so excited to have Emily McDermott on the show today!
Emily is a wife, mom of two boys and the host of Moms Overcoming Overwhelm, where she helps moms simplify their home, head and heart—without adding more stress. In this episode, she’s sharing where to begin when decluttering feels overwhelming, simple strategies to weave it into your busy life and how to make it a natural rhythm instead of just another chore. If you’re ready to finally declutter and simplify your home, I pray this episode gives you the encouragement you need to take that first step!
Hugs!
