Have you been feeling scattered, guilty, and pulled in every direction as a work-from-home mom or entrepreneur?

You set a schedule and try to protect your time. Yet somehow you still feel behind at the end of everyday.

And guilty. Guilty for working instead of being "just a mom". Guilty when you’re with your kids instead of "providing" for your family.

In this episode of Time Management for Christian Moms, we’re talking about biblical boundaries — not in a vague or Pinterest-perfect or IG-worthy way, but in a practical, realistic way that actually works for moms balancing faith, family, and work from home.

If your boundaries keep breaking no matter what you do, this episode will help you see the real issue more clearly — and give you a practical steps for boundary setting.

As a former Program Manager in tech, I used to rely heavily on calendars, deadlines, and clear start-and-stop times. But working from home as a mom to three young children lends itself to constant interruptions, emotional pressure, and blurred lines. I've had to become very intentional.

In this episode, we walk through why boundaries don’t fail because of a lack of discipline — but because of missing clarity, unplanned friction, and misaligned priorities.

You’ll learn:

• Why boundaries fall apart when you haven’t prioritized what's most important in your current season

• How to plan for predictable interruptions like kids, notifications, and general overwhelm

• Why biblical stewardship is about priority, not balance

• How the biblical order of roles brings peace and reduces guilt

• How capacity-based planning helps boundaries become solid

We’ll also talk about how Jesus modeled boundaries throughout Scripture — withdrawing to pray, saying no to crowds, and honoring the Father’s will — and why Christian moms don’t need to feel guilty for doing the same.

This episode is especially helpful if you feel:

• Mentally exhausted or overwhelmed

• More reactive instead of proactive

• Always starting strong but struggling to follow through

• Pulled between work, home, and spiritual life with no clear separation

If your boundaries keep breaking because your plans don’t match your reality, this episode will help you realign your time with your values — and finally be where your feet are, without guilt.

If you’re a Christian homeschooling mom who feels overwhelmed, scattered, or stretched too thin, this episode will help you simplify.

This is Part 1 of my conversation with Jamie — a homeschool mom of four and the creator behind the blog https://gingerhomemaking.com/. We discuss how to homeschool multiple children of different ages without burnout by narrowing your focus and anchoring your day with reading aloud as a family.

In this episode, we cover:

• The tension many Christian moms feel between staying home and wanting to work
• Why focused time beats doing everything all day
• How reading aloud simplifies homeschool across multiple ages
• What makes a “good” book (without overthinking it)
• How to start a reading habit—even if you only have five minutes a day

This episode is perfect for homeschooling and work-from-home moms who want peace, structure, and sustainable rhythms.
