Cooperating with God's Grace and Understanding His Will | Ep. 53

The Crunchy Catholic Podcast - Faith, Motherhood & Natural Living
Episode 53: Cooperating with God's Grace and Understanding His Will
In this short and sweet episode I share some stories about when we cooperate with God's Will versus when we don't, and how His Graces will either flow for us or they won't, depending on if we're doing His Will. This isn't always easy to recognize but we can continually pray for the eyes to see and ears to hear!

Episode 51: "Giving God Your Loaves and Fish - Sleepless Nights and Simplifying for Catholic Moms"

Episode 51: Giving God Your Loaves and Fish - Sleepless Nights and Simplifying for Catholic Moms
I heard this analogy of the Loaves and Fish once and it has helped me tremendously in my journey of motherhood - I hope you find it helpful as well! Does "Be the Light" mean having a huge impact on a large population, or could it also mean being the light in your home, and trusting God with the ripple effect? Let me know what you think!

Episode 50: Devotion to St. Joseph - My Testimony of this Wonderful Saint!
What a wonderful episode this was to record. You won't find a whole lot of "facts" and "life story" of St. Josesph in this episode, but rather you will hear my own personal testimony of St. Joseph and simple steps for how you can get started with your devotion as well.
Resources mentioned:
"The Life of St. Joseph As Seen by the Mistics"
The beautiful prayer to St. Joseph that I mentioned
A few other (very affordable) favorites from my Church book store:
 
“Visits to Saint Joseph for Every Day of the Month” 
 
“Go To Joseph"

Episode 49: "Is Your Smartphone Sabotaging Your Life?"

The Crunchy Catholic Podcast - Faith, Motherhood & Natural Living
Episode 49: Is Your Smartphone Sabotaging Your Life?
I realize this is a pretty drastic podcast title, and after recording it I actually think I’ll be doing some additional episodes on the topic in the future because there’s just so much to say!
In this episode I dive into my personal journey with the use of my phone as a mother and as an entrepreneur. I truly believe there is a season for everything and while my phone has been the source of many financial blessings by means of social media, it seems that God is calling me to make a shift and I’m so excited to see what’s in store.
The Huberman podcast episode I mentioned can be found here.
CRUNCHI make up and skin care info can be found here.
HAPPY JUICE links can be found here (which btw Amare recently collaborated with The Rootist hair care which is a “fermented hair care” line only found in Sephora and now also available through Amare, for a tad less might I add!)

Episode 48: Celebrating One Year of Drinking Happy Juice - Is It Worth the Hype?
I sort of can't believe it's already been one whole year of drinking the "viral gut-health drink" HAPPY JUICE! In this episode I talk about my story of dealing with feelings of depression and anxiety during my first trimester of my fourth pregnancy, even going so far as experiencing mom rage and such overwhelming mom-guilt for feeling this way. Whew! Enter Happy Juice to save the day - I can't wait for you to take a listen!

If you’re like most of us, you’ve hit a bit of a “post holiday slump” or “winter blues” or whatever you want to call it. Most of us are experiencing the seasonal deficiencies of vitamins and nutrients and the cabin fever of not being able to spend as much time outside.
In this episode, I mention 5 things I’m resolving to stick to so that I can improve my mental and physical health.

I think this is an episode we ALL are in need of right about now! If you ever find yourself caught up in the comparison game while scrolling social media, please remember that Instagram/Pinterest is typically a highlight reel of someone’s life. Listen in as I keep it REAL (not reel) with actually navigating the holidays with littles.

Episode 44: "Rediscovering Your Style or Wardrobe as a Mom - Fashion, Modesty, Nursing-Friendly Clothes and More"
When we become a mama, EVERYTHING changes… including our body! It can be hard navigating what clothes to keep or toss. Has our style changed? Has our standard changed? What about modesty? While this is all SO subjective, I hope you’ll find some takeaways as I share my own journey as I transformed my style and my wardrobe over the last several years of motherhood.
The black leggings that I mentioned which are a STAPLE to my wardrobe (under a dress) as well as a few of my favorite nursing dresses from Amazon:
This one, this one and this one!
