Mama, are you tired of feeling like you have nothing left to pour out, and yet still feel like you’re somehow not giving enough? Do you wish you could stop rehearsing the same patterns from your family that you swore to yourself you would never repeat?
Are you sick of spending hours worrying about your kids and being constantly bombarded with all of the “what ifs” that take over your mind? Do you wish you didn’t feel like you just had to survive this season and that you could actually enjoy it?
How about waking up excited for the day, feeling confident as a mother, and living out those dreams you abandoned so long ago?
In this podcast, you will find tools, wisdom, and encouragement to help you step into the life you were created for! We will dig into healing from your past by re-aligning your identity with Christ, shining a light on depression and anxiety, and ending the cycles of unhealthy family patterns.
We will work to help you craft a healthy, joy-filled life by creating healthy habits, diving into boundaries, and discussing practicals to being a godly wife and raising our kids with intention. We will equip you to spread hope into the world by discovering your gifts and passions, resurrecting old dreams, and learning how to take the freedom you have found and bring others in on it!
If you’re ready to move from anxiety, depression, and overwhelm, and to step into the abundant wide open life that God is calling you to then I think you have found your spot, Mama.
Hi, I’m Brittany, your guide to navigating this journey of healing. I have spent years as a therapist, leader, and coach, helping people move out of the spaces they have been stuck in. I also have walked through my own journey of healing from decades of depression, anxiety, anger, and a deep belief that I am not good enough.
I am here because God used a miscarriage to show me I had nothing to fear and that it was time to use all that he has healed in me to spread his message of hope into the world.
So mama, grab your coffee and journal so we can unpack what it looks like to live a life you were created for! We are going to get super real, laugh about our quirks, and do the heavy lifting to transform our pain into purpose.
If you’re ready to grab hold of your courage, step out in faith, you will discover that your life can become more than you ever dreamed possible. THIS is Morning, Mama! A place for you to throw off all that has been holding you back and run into true freedom. Let’s go!!

Do you constantly feel like you’re falling short as a mom?
Maybe you lose your patience…
yell more than you want to…
feel overwhelmed all the time…
or carry this constant pressure to “do better.”
And even when you are growing…
you still can’t seem to stop beating yourself up.
If that’s you, this conversation is for you.
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Alexandra Jensen—wife, mom of three, author, and Christian writer—for a powerful conversation about mom guilt, perfectionism, receiving God’s grace, and learning how to extend that grace to ourselves.
Because so many of us are living under the weight of:
“I should be doing more.”
“I should be handling this better.”
“I should be enough.”
But underneath all of that striving…
are lies about our worth, identity, and what God actually says about us.
In this conversation, we unpack:
✨ Why moms struggle so deeply with guilt and perfectionism
✨ How refusing grace for yourself impacts your marriage and kids
✨ The connection between control, anxiety, and perfectionism
✨ Why accepting help is actually an act of humility
✨ The difference between God’s grace vs. the world’s version of “self-care”
✨ How to recognize when you’re running on empty emotionally and spiritually
✨ Why slowing down and connecting with God changes everything
✨ The importance of feeling your feelings instead of stuffing them down
We also talk about practical ways to reconnect with God in busy motherhood—including Alexandra’s beautiful idea of “pickup prayers” while cleaning the house.
If you’ve been stuck in shame, mom guilt, overwhelm, anxiety, or the pressure to hold everything together…
this episode will remind you that God’s grace is bigger than your shortcomings.
And you do not have to earn it.
love,
Brittany

Do you feel like your life is moving too fast…
but you honestly don’t know how to slow it down?
Maybe this entire Go Slow series has resonated deeply with you.
You want a slower, more intentional, more peaceful life…
…but practically speaking?
You don’t know what that actually looks like in real life.
How do you slow down when you have kids, responsibilities, work, ministry, schedules, and people depending on you?
That’s exactly what we’re diving into today.
In this final episode of the Go Slow series, we’re getting practical.
Because slowing down isn’t about becoming lazy, unproductive, or overly comfortable.
It’s about becoming more intentional.
And honestly?
A truly slow life is often more uncomfortable than a fast one.
Because slowing down forces you to:
• Face what you’ve been avoiding
• Sit with your thoughts and emotions
• Say no when people may not understand
• Create boundaries
• Reevaluate what actually matters
• Stop numbing and distracting yourself
• Trust God instead of striving
In this episode, I walk you through practical shifts that will help you stop simply surviving life—and start living it intentionally.
We talk about:
✨ The “big rocks first” analogy and how to prioritize what actually matters
✨ Why rhythms and routines protect your peace
✨ How to create slow, restorative moments in your week
✨ Why boundaries are essential for a healthy life
✨ The difference between intentional living vs. comfort-seeking
✨ How striving creates chaos internally—even when your schedule isn’t full
✨ Why some seasons stretch your capacity (and how to walk through them peacefully)
✨ How organization and systems help support a slower, healthier life
If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, scattered, emotionally exhausted, or constantly behind…
this episode will help you take a deep breath and start making practical shifts toward the kind of life you actually want to live.
love,
Brittany

Do your conversations feel deep and meaningful…
or mostly rushed, surface level, and disconnected?
Do you feel truly known by the people around you?
Do they feel truly known by you?
Or are your relationships slowly drifting into:
small talk, distractions, emotional walls, and “checking the boxes”?
In today’s episode, we continue our conversation on how to build rich, intentional, life-giving relationships through the way we communicate.
Because deep relationships don’t happen accidentally.
They are built through:
presence, curiosity, vulnerability, intentional listening, and emotional safety.
In Part 2 of this conversation, we unpack:
✨ How to make people feel truly seen and safe
✨ The power of active listening and follow-up questions
✨ Why body language and eye contact matter more than you think
✨ How to redirect conversations deeper without awkwardness
✨ The difference between listening to understand vs. listening to respond
✨ Why vulnerability is essential for deep relationships
✨ How your pain cycle might be affecting the way you communicate
We also talk about something so important:
Some of us struggle to listen well…
but others struggle to open up at all.
And both create barriers to intimacy and connection.
If you’ve ever felt lonely in your relationships, struggled to feel deeply connected, or wished your conversations could go beyond surface-level—this episode will give you practical tools to begin changing that.
Because the relationships you want…
are built one intentional conversation at a time.
love,
Brittany

How are the conversations in your life going right now?
Do your relationships feel deep and connected…
or mostly rushed, distracted, and surface level?
Do you leave conversations feeling truly known?
Do the people in your life feel deeply seen by you?
Or does it feel like everyone is talking…
but no one is really slowing down enough to connect?
In today’s episode, we continue the Go Slow series by talking about something that shapes every relationship we have:
Our conversations.
Because the truth is, most of us are moving through conversations the same way we move through life:
Fast.
Distracted.
Half-present.
Trying to get to the next thing.
And when we live at that pace, our relationships stay shallow—even with the people we love most.
In this episode, we unpack two foundational keys to creating deeper, richer, more intentional conversations:
✨ Creating “negative space” (silence, slowness, room to process)
✨ Asking intentional questions that lead to real connection
We talk about:
• Why silence feels uncomfortable—but is essential for depth
• The difference between introverts and extroverts in conversation
• How to help your spouse, kids, and friends feel emotionally safe
• Why interrupting isn’t always bad (when done intentionally)
• How phones quietly damage trust and vulnerability in conversations
• Why great conversations don’t require perfect words—just genuine curiosity and presence
• The subtle ways rushed conversations erode connection over time
If you’ve been craving deeper relationships, stronger friendships, more meaningful conversations with your kids or spouse—this episode will give you simple, practical shifts that can completely change the way you connect.
Because often…
Depth doesn’t come from saying more.
It comes from slowing down enough
to truly listen.

Brittany

What is the pace of your home right now?
Do you feel like you’re constantly rushing…
moving from one thing to the next…
trying to keep up—but never really settling?
And if you’re honest…
Are you actually enjoying your family life—
or just managing it?
In today’s episode, we continue the Go Slow series by talking about what it looks like to slow down with your family—even in a full, busy, real-life schedule.
Because here’s the truth:
The moments that shape your family the most…
aren’t the rushed ones.
They’re the slow ones.
The lingering breakfasts.
The unhurried conversations.
The nights where no one has to be anywhere.
That’s where connection happens.
That’s where identity is formed.
That’s where your kids feel deeply known, loved, and safe.
But if your life is always moving…
Those moments get squeezed out.
And over time, you can end up with a full life—
but not a deeply connected one.
love,
Brittany

Do you ever feel like your marriage has slowly become… surface level?
Like you’re doing life together—
managing the house, the kids, the responsibilities—
…but you’re not really connecting the way you used to?
Or maybe you feel the tension…
the conflict…
the distance…
but you don’t have the energy (or desire) to slow down and work through it.
If that’s you, you’re not alone.
In today’s episode, we continue the Go Slow series by talking about what it looks like to slow down in your marriage—even when it feels hard, inconvenient, or overwhelming.
Because here’s the truth:
Deep, healthy marriages aren’t built in quick moments.
They’re built in the slow, intentional, sometimes uncomfortable work of showing up again and again.
And in a culture that teaches us to chase what’s easy, fast, and exciting…
Marriage can feel like a lot.
The cost goes up.
The excitement goes down.
And the temptation is to check out instead of lean in.
But what if the depth you’re craving…
is on the other side of slowing down?
love,
Brittany

Do you ever feel like you don’t even know what’s going on inside of you?
Like you’re reacting… overwhelmed… irritated… shutting down…
but you don’t actually know why?
Do you stay busy, distracted, or constantly consuming…
just to avoid slowing down long enough to feel what’s really there?
In today’s episode, we continue the Go Slow series by turning inward—
and talking about what it looks like to slow down with yourself.
Because in a world filled with noise, scrolling, podcasts, and constant input…
many of us have lost the ability to sit in silence and actually reflect.
And without that?
We miss what’s happening beneath the surface.
We miss our pain.
We miss our patterns.
We miss how our thoughts and emotions are shaping our lives and relationships.
And even more importantly…
we miss what God is trying to show us.
In this episode, we unpack why introspection feels so uncomfortable,
how numbing and distraction are keeping you stuck,
and why creating space to reflect is essential for real growth.
Because here’s the truth:
If God is going to do something through you…
He first wants to do something in you.
And that requires slowing down long enough to actually see what’s going on inside.
love,
Brittany

Do you ever sit down to spend time with God…
and your mind just won’t slow down?
You try to pray—but you’re thinking about your to-do list.
You open your Bible—but you feel distracted, rushed, or unfocused.
You want to go deeper with God… but it feels harder than it should.
If that’s you, you are not alone.
In today’s episode, we’re continuing the Go Slow series—but we’re focusing on something even deeper:
What does it actually look like to slow down with God?
Because in a world that constantly pushes us to move faster, do more, and stay productive…
slowness can start to feel wrong.
Even in our relationship with Him.
We rush through prayer.
We treat quiet time like a checklist.
We seek answers more than we seek His presence.
And without even realizing it, we can begin to prioritize doing for God…
over actually being with Him.
In this episode, we unpack how this shows up in real life—and why it matters more than we think.
Because the truth is:
You don’t just need more discipline in your faith…
You need a different pace.
One that allows you to slow down…
be present…
and actually experience God, not just learn about Him.
love,
Brittany

Do you feel like your life is constantly moving too fast?
Like you’re always behind…
always rushing…
always trying to keep up—but never quite getting there?
Maybe your days feel chaotic.
Your mind feels full.
And even when you slow down physically… internally, you still feel rushed.
If that’s you, you are not alone.
In today’s episode, we’re starting a brand new series called Go Slow—and this might be one of the most important conversations we’ve had.
Because the truth is, most of us aren’t just busy…
We’re living at a pace that was never meant to sustain us.
We’re constantly consuming more, doing more, learning more, adding more—
until our lives feel completely full… but not in a life-giving way.
And because of that, we feel:
Overwhelmed
Scattered
Disconnected
Irritable
And exhausted
But what if the answer isn’t doing more better…
What if the answer is doing less—slower?
In this episode, we’re talking about the power of slowing down and why your life actually needs something most of us are missing:
Negative space.
Just like a beautiful piece of art needs space to breathe,
your life was never meant to be crammed full.
God designed you with intention—
and that includes space, margin, and rhythm.
Because without it?
You lose connection.
You lose presence.
You lose depth.
And you start living in survival mode instead of actually experiencing your life.
This episode will help you step back, assess your pace, and begin shifting toward a life that feels more peaceful, present, and aligned with how God designed you to live.

Brittany

Has your relationship with God been feeling… distant lately?
Maybe there was a time when everything felt alive—
you heard His voice clearly,
your quiet times felt meaningful,
and your connection with Him felt strong and steady.
But now?
It feels harder.
Quieter.
Maybe even… dry.
And you don’t know what changed—or how to get back there.
If that’s where you are, this episode is for you.
Because the truth is…
this happens to all of us.
There are seasons in our walk with God where things feel vibrant and full—
and seasons where things feel slower, quieter, or harder.
That doesn’t mean something is wrong with you.
And it doesn’t mean God is gone.
But it does invite us to pause… and take a closer look.
In this episode, I walk you through practical, honest ways to assess what’s going on—and how to reconnect with God in a real, life-giving way.
love,
Brittany
