Who Are You, Mama?
The other day we were all in the kitchen and got to talking about tall people and short people. Someone made the comment, I don’t want to be tall.

How you could reach high things. And my son blurts out, I’m going to reach goals! Now this episode is not about setting and reaching goals...

My husband and I are celebrating 20 years of marriage! And in honor of that, I’m sharing 8 things I have done wrong in our 20 years of marriage. I wrote in my journal July 2012 “I am negative.

Ever called your child shy, lazy, rowdy, high energy, or frustrating? What you speak over your child influences them. There is power in a name. People love to be called by their name. They feel respected, valued, remembered, and important. You give your children names at birth. You may have pet names for them, but without realizing it you give them other names, too like shy, lazy, rowdy, high energy, and frustrating. Is that what you mean to call them because you declare it about them each time you speak it?

In this episode, I'll give you exact words or scripts you can say to your child using both praise and encouragement. We'll relate these to the different personalities your children may have.

Countdown to Staying a Renewed Mama
Do you like roller coasters? Up, down, turning to the right, then the left. Which way will it turn next? The thrill! The screams. The belly flops! Roller coasters are for amusement park fun. At home, we don’t want to be roller coaster Mamas. Up. Down. Which way is Mama gonna go next? One minute she’s happy, the next minute she’s shouting. Wait for it. Am I going to get in trouble for spilling my milk? Mama, we want to be steady, renewed, whole. “Every moment of one’s existence, one is growing into mor...

3 Better Ways than Shouting
Do you find yourself shouting at your children? You're trying not to yell, but it seems to be the only way they will listen. Maybe they shout at you and stomp off which only makes you want to shout back. Maybe you are frustrated and overwhelmed and something like spilt milk or a lost shoe just sets you off with the feeling of it’s too much. And you shout. Shouting at our kids happens, but that doesn’t make it right or an acceptable way for us to approach our parenting. Listen in as I share 3 be...

What's in Your Word Bank?
We all have a word bank. A bank of words we use each day when talking to our spouses, our children, to our coworkers, bosses, team members, neighbors, grocery store clerk, bank teller…..to anyone we come in contact with.... even to the dog! From this word bank comes what we think and what we say throughout the day. If we are going to be Renewed Mamas, we’ve got to stop right here, right now and check in with the words in our word bank. So, what words are you thinking and speaki...

Calling Children Up and Not Out
Everyday kids get called out. "Be quiet. Sit down. Slow down. What are you doing to your sister? Why can’t you share?" They get called OUT for what they didn't do right. How they didn’t fall in line, follow directions, and perform. I want to challenge you, Renewed Mama to instead, call them UP, not Out. Call them up to a higher standard. Call them up to greatness. Say: "I love you and I see a lot in you. I'm calling you UP. Thank you for listening when it's time to listen. Thanks...

What do Renewed Mamas Sound Like?
Today we are talking sounds. What do renewed words sound like? The old words compared to the new, right way of thinking and speaking. We start with renewing the words we think which becomes what we say because we are living the life we sow with our words. What we think and what we speak becomes our reality. If you catch yourself saying, “There's too much to do,” “I'm overwhelmed,” "There's not enough time to get it all done” or “I’m tired” or “It's chaos in here.” “The kids are out of control,” “The house is a mess,” and “The kids...

Intro to the Renewed Mama Podcast
Welcome to the Renewed Mama podcast. I’ve been on a nine year journey of intentionally renewing my mind and the words I speak. I care about using words well to speak life, hope, encouragement, and belief. I don’t always get it right, but I want to live and to walk in the fruit of words chosen carefully and spoken well. You see, somehow we’ve been sold this lie that we are to be run down, worn out, carpooling, over committed, too tired to make dinner, got another headache so can’t be intimate kind...
