The Momentum Podcast

How do I create more time? How do I get organized so I can finally relax and enjoy my life? How do I improve my energy? How do I ask for help? How can I be more patient with my kids? How can I be more present? How can I find time for self-care? How do I help my child who is struggling with his/her mental health? How do I make time for a girl’s night out? How can I find balance in my life? How can I improve communication with my spouse? If you’ve ever asked yourself (or Google) any of these questions, then this show is for you!

The Mom-entum podcast aims to serve overwhelmed Moms who struggle to find balance. It’s a place for Moms to find solutions to problems and get support all along the way. As they say, “it takes a village”. Many of us feel like where is the village? We feel like we have no help. We feel like we must do it alone. And although we are never alone, we can’t even go to the bathroom without a kid infringing on our privacy, we ironically feel so lonely at times.

The Mom-entum podcast bypasses the small talk and gets right into the real struggles Moms face every day. We talk to real moms who are deep in the trenches as well as the ones who have been there and have come to share what they’ve learned along the way. Each week, I’ll introduce new ways of thinking and discuss tangible, actionable tools that you can implement to simplify your life and promote peace and joy in your home. Go from treading water to finally finding your flow in motherhood.

Hey there, tired mamas! This episode of The Mom-entum Podcast is packed with wisdom from Carolyn Deck, author of “Above The Turbulence: Your Ticket Out of Pain to Purpose.” Imagine raising not one, but FIVE kids in a foreign land, often solo while hubby’s away for work. Yep, that’s Carolyn’s story!
 
She gets real about the craziness of parenting far from your support squad, but guess what? She not only raised five awesome adults but also patched up her own childhood wounds through unwavering faith.
 
Carolyn spills the tea about a game-changing moment when she finally said yes to a Bible study invite. It got her thinking. Ever told yourself, “I don’t have time for this”? Guilty, right? She nudges us to question our beliefs—especially the ones holding us back.
 
She’s big on choices. Even when life throws decisions at us, she swears it’s how we respond that shapes our path. Oh, and around the 30-minute mark, she gets real about how we moms can be mean to ourselves (sound familiar?). Think of yourself as an air traffic controller for your thoughts—dump the negative ones, pump up the positive vibes, and take a breather with some spiritual connection.
 
Carolyn’s full of clever travel metaphors (she was a travel agent, after all) that make her advice stick. Her book’s loaded with these game-changing nuggets—seriously, it’s a total life upgrade. So, grab a cuppa, have a listen, and consider snagging a copy of her book. It’s like a virtual hug and a shot of wisdom rolled into one!
