Are you sick of coming home to a constant mess and never-ending to-do list that it feels like you’re working a second job?

We are so excited you’re here! This podcast will help you enjoy teaching and your home life again, be more efficient and focused with the time you have and create more energy to pour into your family and the things that matter most to you! Hi, I’m Ashley, and I’m Roberta. We are both Wives, and Teacher Mamas with a combined 28 years of experience in the classroom and we’ve both been that exhausted, stressed out teacher mom. We too were overstimulated and overwhelmed, brought too much work home, struggled with keeping up on the house chores and dinner, and did zero things that we enjoyed outside of school. We finally realized that if we were going to live more energetic and balanced lives, we needed to learn different routines, time management, and stress relieving strategies. We created a plan that fits *us* and is actually easy to stick with. A lifestyle that made teaching, momming, and wifeing easier and fun again. And we’re ready to share it with you! If you’re ready to: ***Start finding balance between work and home… ***Get your housework under control so you don’t feel like you need to clone yourself to get things done… ***Find time for yourself, your family, and home with simple routines, time and stress management strategies… ***And have more energy, focus, fulfillment and patience- this podcast is for you! So go grab your coffee and leave those ungraded papers at school, because we are about to dive in!! Get ready to get your binge listen on!!

Hi Teacher Mama! Ashley here. If you are listening to this episode today, maybe you’ve never really been involved in anything Faith related or you have but you’ve had a bad experience and kind of gave up on that Faith. Maybe you are neither and are sitting pretty good faith wise right now. Well, this episode is for all of you. I had a major download on Sunday after a very frustrating experience at a new church and I wanted to share because this is not the first time this has happened to me. I figured, if this has happened to me so many times, it has probably happened to others and it can feel very discouraging when you are trying to develop that relationship with Jesus. I also want to add in here that, if you ever have your Full-On-Teacher-Hat on when listening to these episodes, (you know, that one where we aren’t allowed to talk about God during the school day). I want you to remove that hat now and any time we broach this subject here. We don’t just speak to the teacher on this show, we speak to the mom and the wife and the friend, and Jesus should be present in all those areas of our life, yes even in school. Just because we can’t talk about him, doesn't mean we can't act like him. I really hope my story today brings you hope if you have struggled with your faith in the past or is just a reminder to everyone that no one is perfect- we all sin, and we can’t let people who sin against us be the reason to interrupt that relationship with Jesus.

Hi Teacher Mama! Today I am going to give you 3 motivational affirmations to use to start your day. I designed these affirmations for you - the teacher. But upon reflection these affirmations easily work for your students as well. If you want to add a second layer you could have your students repeat these affirmations as well each day to help teach them the power of mindset and to help prime your classroom for a great school year.

Since school has started, do you feel like you’ve been running around like a crazy chicken with its head because off (y’all, I know what this looks like because we butchered our own chickens a couple years ago). You’ve got sports and games and church stuff and your own stuff, maybe even side business stuff and your husband is on some different planet with all his plans? Do you feel like communication is gone between you and your spouse and because of that, there has been much more fighting which then leads to neither of you being a good parent. You guys NEED to stick around for this episode, because I am going to give you my whole system for solving this problem. You're going to stop needing to put fires out and you're just gonna stop fires from happening in the first place with my method so let’s go!

We all want to feel less stress by just having less things to be stressed about. But a lot of times we can’t control the events that happen that make us feel stressed. What we do have control over is our thoughts, which then bleeds into our feelings. So how can we have more control over our thoughts and feelings so the stress can more easily roll off our backs rather than get stuck in our minds and bodies making us feel tired (maybe even exhausted), crabby, irritable, physically run down, and so many other symptoms. In just 5-10 minutes a day, maybe even while you are still lying in bed, you can make a significant impact in the way your body handles stress. I can’t wait to dive into this today, because this is something I have added to my own routine about 3 times a week, and I can feel the positive difference it makes in my ability to treat myself with compassion and patience when a stressor comes my way.

Preparing my home for back to school is one of those things that gives me so much peace and feelings of calm. When the house is organized that means it is clean when I leave for the day. When the house is prepped for backpacks, and papers, and homework, and all the things school related our days flow much better because we all know where our things belong.

Before we head into the thick of the school year, come hear this little reminder on just how irreplaceable you are in you own life.
I hope this message really lands with you and serves as a reminder throughout the school year that you are the MOST IMPORTANT person in your life which means that it's most important that you are well taken care of.
