Simple Rhythms for Busy Moms | SAHM, Routines, Biblical Motherhood, Balance, Schedules, Work-Life Balance, Productivity
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!

Hi, friend!
I get a lot of questions on what do your days practically look like as a stay at home mom that is also a work from home mom? How do you schedule your days? What does balance look like to you in this season? This is something I walk through in-depth on how I schedule my days, how I originally decided the best way to schedule my days for success, all of that, but today, I want to give you a peek behind the curtain and just give you an overview of how we are currently spending our days.
Now, I’ll give the disclaimer that no two days are exactly alike in our household, but we definitely have a normal rhythm to our days and I’ll walk you through what that looks like currently for us as we are homeschooling, I work from home, and we also have lots of hobbies and activities like homesteading, being involved in our church and community, etc. I think this will be a really fun one to break down! I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!
Hugs!

Hi, friend!
Today, we’re going to talk about something I’ve been getting a lot of messages about recently. And that is feeling like you are tired of using screens to babysit or entertain your kids just so you can get anything done. Do you ever feel like you really prefer to not use screens a ton and you know you’d rather have your kids playing by themselves, but also, it seems like that is the only way you can get anything done?! I’ve totally been there and this episode is for you!
In today’s episode, I’m going to share 3 super quick activities that take 5 minutes or less to set up that can help your kids play independently while you get some stuff done, maybe sneak in a few minutes of work, or even just drink a cup of coffee in peace! I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!
Hugs!

Hi, friend!
Have you ever felt like something was wrong with you for constantly feeling SO overstimulated and overwhelmed in motherhood, when you’ve dreamed of motherhood for so long? Or do you wonder why keeping up on all the things is simply EXHAUSTING and you’re constantly one tiny step away from just losing it completely, trying to keep all the balls you’re juggling in the air?
There is an actual PHYSICAL component to overwhelm, overstimulation, even mom rage and I’m so excited to bring my dear friend Rachel Skinner Fernandez onto the show today to share with us her wisdom on all things nervous system and what that means for us as busy moms just trying to keep it together.
She is sharing practical and SIMPLE shifts to calm your nervous system, get out of fight or flight mode, and heal from anxiety and overwhelm on a very basic level. This was SUCH a good conversation and I know you’re going to walk away with some very practical tools that you can implement TODAY to help you start calming the chaos behind the scenes. I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!
Hugs!

Hi, friend!
Today’s episode is a really fun one! I’m sharing my current favorite podcasts to binge. One of the easiest and most enjoyable way that we can consume information as busy moms is by listening to podcasts! I’ve found that I’ve been able to grow so much personally, in my faith, and even learning in my business through carving out time to listen to other podcasts and apply what I learn.
I think it’s so fun to hear what podcasts other people are loving or gaining wisdom from that’s what today’s episode is all about! I am sharing my top favorites in multiple categories-parenting, mom life, Christian encouragement and lifestyle, and a few business podcasts that I’m loving as well. So excited for this episode! I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!
Hugs!

Hi, friend!
In today’s episode, I’m talking all about friendship and how to find and keep strong friendships in the midst of busy mom life. I’ve heard so many times from moms that the little years especially were some of the loneliest times of their life, which I think is so sad because I truly believe that often, this is the time we need the support, community, and life-giving friendships (and maybe just conversation with actual humans other than our toddlers) the MOST.
I’m going to share what I’ve learned over the years as well as practical tips for what is working for me right now to prioritize friendship amidst a very full life! How to find life-giving friendships as a mom, tips to maintain and grow the friendships you already have, and how to practically make this a priority with everything else you have going on. I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!
Hugs!

Hi, friend!
Are you tired of constantly feeling behind and overwhelmed trying to do it all, but feeling like you’re getting NOWHERE? Are you exhausted trying to balance mom life, business, and somehow keep up on your home all at the same time?
In today’s episode, I’m bringing on one of my amazing students, Jessica Tung Thomas. She recently graduated the course and she is coming on the show to tell us all about her experience, why she joined the course, what it’s really like on the inside, what wins she’s experienced, and if it’s actually worth it! She’s also sharing specifically about how impactful the systems and tools she’s learned in the course have been for navigating a really HARD season that she and her family are currently walking through. It doesn’t make the circumstances any easier, but it has given her so much more capacity and bandwidth to serve and love her family well through this season, while her home and family responsibilities are taken care of with the systems she’s put in place. I am so honored to share this conversation with you today!
This is a juicy one-you’re definitely going to want to be a fly on the wall to listen in if you’ve been thinking about joining the Simple Rhythms for Busy Moms course! I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!
Hugs!

Hi, friend!
In today’s episode, we are broaching the subject of work-life balance. I have shared pieces of my story of falling into workaholic tendencies and unintentionally prioritizing work over pretty much everything else in my life. Let me tell you, it was NOT a pretty season of my life.
Today, we’re going to talk all about 2 practical things you need to let go of to truly prioritize family FIRST as a work from home mom. You have a desire to have a business or work in some way, but you also know you want your family to be your main priority-how do you balance BOTH?! Such a good question and one that I’m excited to start exploring a little bit more in this episode!
And if you are a full time stay at home mom or work outside the home mom, I think there will still be lots that will apply to you as well. No matter what our “work” is, it can be very easy to let that work overrun and rule the show and crowd out our best intentions of keeping our family a top priority. Getting really honest about that and creating systems to help safeguard those priorities is so key in finding the balance that works for you and your family in the season you’re in. I pray this episode is encouraging for you! Enjoy!
Hugs!
