Jessica Jackson
The GO TO Podcast For Moms With Kids At Home!
Do you want to love motherhood but find yourself in survival mode or burned out more than you'd like to admit?
Do you feel tugged between enjoying every moment with your kids because it "goes so fast" and feeling mom guilt because you don't?
Are you tired of wandering around the house or scrolling social media but don't know where to find the time or energy to do something that you would enjoy?
There's a way to create a life that you are excited to wake up to each day so you enjoy your time with your family, have a smooth running home, and still move forward on your greatest goals.
Hi! I'm Jessica Jackson, homeschooling mom of four, productivity and time management expert for moms, and project enthusiast.
In this podcast, I will teach you how to:
- Navigate survival seasons with a thriving mindset through practical tips
- Create a vision for your life and get clear about what really matters to YOU
- Effective planning, productivity, and time management strategies when you have kids at home - they're different!
- Build family systems that support the entire family - including mom
- Establish habits and rhythms that nurture you
- Become a Soaring Mother so you can live connected with God, use your gifts and talents to bless those in your circle of influence, adventure with your family, and enjoy meaningful relationships
I began motherhood with hopes and dreams that I could navigate my days confidently with purpose, live intentionally, find joy and contentment in everyday life, and have God's help and strength in this lifelong journey.
Reality:
I was in complete survival mode
I felt guilty a lot of the time
I had no clue what my days should look like
I was snappy and irritable with my family
Can you relate?
The good news - I closed the gap between what I hoped was possible and my reality.
And you can too.
I can't wait to help you live life with purpose and joy and see your growth in the everyday moments of motherhood.
