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

Have you ever packed away the Christmas decorations, swept up the last bit of glitter, and felt that quiet drop of “okay…now what?” In this episode, we’re talking about that familiar post-holiday feeling—when the coziness fades and life slips back into routines that don’t always feel life-giving. Especially if you’re someone who’s been living for the next launch, the next break, or the next milestone, that return to “normal” can feel discouraging. This conversation is about how to move into 2026 with intention instead of resignation, and how to make even the everyday feel more aligned and sustainable. We’ll walk through how to identify the underlying friction points that make life feel overwhelming—whether that’s at home or in your business—and why lasting change doesn’t start with doing more, but with noticing what’s actually causing the tension. You’ll learn how your thoughts shape your feelings and actions, why vision is the true starting point for sustainable change, and how small mindset and rhythm shifts can create real margin in your daily life. If you’re craving a simpler, more grounded way to enter the new year—one that reflects your real priorities—this episode will help you take the first step.   I pray this episode encourages you!

In today’s Memos in the Margins episode, we’re talking about what not to repeat next Christmas and how small reflections now can create a lighter, more intentional holiday later. This episode focuses on noticing what felt heavy, what worked well, and how simple 1% shifts can meaningfully change the experience of the season—not by doing more, but by adjusting what already exists. You’ll learn how to capture notes for your future self, make small preparations that ease next year’s load, and turn those “please never let me do this again” moments into clarity instead of frustration. It’s a practical, low-pressure way to reflect on capacity, name what you want more of, and set yourself up for a Christmas that actually supports your life. I pray this episode encourages you!

The holiday season fills up fast, especially for high-achieving entrepreneur moms who are used to carrying a lot. In this episode, I talk about why the real issue isn’t time—it’s energy. Every invitation, responsibility, and “good thing” pulls from a limited reserve, and when we say yes to everything, we often end up drained, overextended, and unable to actually enjoy the season with our people. I share why every “yes” is also a “no,” how to recognize when your capacity is being stretched too thin, and why protecting your energy is essential in this season. We also build on the holiday “To DON’T” list from the last episode and apply it specifically to your energy and capacity. I walk through how to say no to good things without guilt, set boundaries that actually stick, and release the pressure to make everything perfect. Saying no isn’t about missing out—it’s about creating space for rest, presence, and peace, so you can show up fully for what matters most and truly experience the season instead of just surviving it.

The holidays have a way of quietly piling on expectations — more traditions, more events, more spending, more pressure to make everything magical. In today’s episode, I’m inviting you into a different approach: creating a Holiday To-Don’t List. Instead of asking yourself what else you can squeeze in, we’re talking about how to intentionally protect your capacity so you can actually enjoy this season. I’m sharing why this practice has become a non-negotiable for me as a mom and business owner, and how saying no to the right things has completely changed how December feels in our home. We’ll walk through what a Holiday To-Don’t List really is, why trying to do it all leaves you drained and disconnected, and how social media often fuels expectations that don’t align with real life. I’m also sharing specific examples of what I’m choosing not to do this year and why each one creates more margin for what matters most. If you’ve ever ended the holidays exhausted, wondering where the joy went, this episode is your permission slip to slow down, simplify, and build a holiday rhythm that honors your values, your family, and your capacity. I pray this episode encourages you!

Have you ever felt a pull to open your home more often — to create a place of connection, comfort, and belonging — but weren’t sure where to begin? In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with someone who has inspired me deeply over the years: Renee Higgins. Renee is a wife of eleven years, homeschool mama to five little ones (including toddler twins!), and a woman who embodies biblical hospitality in the most simple, faithful, and approachable way. She shares practical rhythms, gentle mindset shifts, and the small-but-powerful habits that make welcoming others into your home feel not just doable, but genuinely life-giving. We also dig into the heart of hospitality — why it matters, how Scripture shapes the way we open our homes, and what it looks like to build a family culture rooted in generosity and presence rather than performance or perfection. Renee’s perspective is refreshing and deeply encouraging, reminding us that meaningful hospitality doesn’t require a spotless home or elaborate meals. It begins with a posture of openness, a willingness to serve, and an understanding that our homes can be a ministry in the everyday moments. If you’ve longed to make hospitality a more natural rhythm in your family’s life, this conversation will give you both the practical tools and the encouragement to start right where you are. I pray this episode encourages you! Hugs!   -KyAnn   Mentions: Follow Renee on IG: @renee_elisabethh   *DM me for details on the limited Rhythms that Scale spots opening in December!
