Restored Mama - Break Burnout! Faith, motherhood, and messy grace. Let’s restore your joy, your peace, and your purpose one episode at a time.
Find joy, peace, and purpose amidst the chaos. Break the burnout! Are you an overwhelmed mom just trying to survive the day until bedtime… again? Do you feel like you’re running on empty—mentally, emotionally, and spiritually—while trying to juggle kids, marriage, faith, and a never-ending to-do list? Maybe connecting with your husband feels impossible because you’re just too exhausted and burnt out. Mama, you’re not alone—and it doesn’t have to stay this way.
Welcome to Restored Mama—a faith-filled podcast created for moms who are craving more peace, joy, and purpose in the middle of real, messy motherhood. Whether you’re drowning in laundry, navigating tantrums, or feeling distant from God (and your spouse), this podcast will help you trade survival mode for intentional, Christ-centered living.
I’m Jen—wife, mama, former single mom, stepmom, and daughter of the King. I know what it’s like to feel completely drained and unsure of how to keep going. But through God’s grace, simple structure, and a whole lot of restoration, I found a way to rebuild my home and my heart—with Jesus at the center. Now, I’m here to help you do the same.
Each week on Restored Mama, you’ll find:
Biblical encouragement to ground your heart and mind
Simple habits and practical tools to create peace in your home
Christ-centered routines and mindset shifts for everyday mom life
Real talk about marriage, motherhood, burnout, and balance
A supportive, honest space for moms who love Jesus but need rest
You’ll learn how to prioritize what matters most, go to bed feeling accomplished (instead of defeated), and wake up excited for the day ahead—even in the chaos. You’ll rediscover passion in your marriage, connection with your kids, and purpose in your motherhood, all while growing in your faith.
So grab that reheated coffee, take a deep breath, and let’s start this journey together. Because restoration is possible—for you, your home, your heart, and your family.
God doesn’t just restore—He makes things better than they were before.

Hey Mama!
Are you in a waiting season? Having to trust God on a deeper level than you thought you would have to? Sitting, waiting, trusting, not knowing what comes next. We all have a waiting season, or lots of waiting seasons in our life. How are you waiting? Who are you trusting? What are you doing and speaking in the waiting?
God truly is a good God. When you experience His goodness, it’s no longer just a phrase we say in church. It gets your heart pumping and excited every time you say it because you know deep down what it means to say He is good!
Psalms 34:4-8 says:
"I sought the Lord and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. They looked to Him and were radiant, and their faces were not ashamed. This poor man cried out, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them. Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good, blessed is the man who trusts in Him!"
Trust God, trust His goodness. What situation are you in right now? Trust in His goodness, when you are out of this, you are going to know, really know, how good God is, because you are going to get a taste for yourself!

Hey Mama!
Picture this, you pack up all your boxes, write what room they go in, you think you have it all figured out. But then you get to your new home and you have to open all the boxes that say kitchen, just so you can find the one that has the one with the coffee so you don’t miss your morning coffee your first day in your new home.
Now you have a bunch of opened boxes and no time to unpack them or sort through. Or you give up and go get coffee from a local coffee shop, come back home, and have to open all the kids rooms boxes because you can’t find little Maybel’s favorite stuffy. We can fix this! You can actually have a smooth move and transition into your new home without all the stress.
Moving doesn’t have to feel like chaos. The lead up to the move with all the packing, then the transition into the new home can actually be enjoyable. You may not be moving right now, but if you ever plan on moving again, or you know someone who is, this is going to be crucial for you to listen to and keep in your back pocket. You will need it!

Hey Mama!
Happy 4th of July! It is fun to be able to celebrate with so many friends and family but it often causes stress for us mamas. As a mom with all different age groups of kids, it can be hard especially when you are going somewhere other than your house.
So many things to gather and try to remember, getting the kids ready, what extra things do you have to take. Is it a pool party? Is it at the park? Is it someones house? Depending on where you are going you will need different things, then are you contributing by bringing a dish or two? It can be a lot.
Let’s talk about how to get out of the house with all your kids and necessary things in tact without feeling like the chaos ensue and make it to your outing on time without being a hot mess! During the summer we often have bbqs, birthday parties, pool parties and other special gatherings.
That's a fun thing about summer, but it can also be so stressful. Let me help you make it not so stressful, and maybe even a little enjoyable!

Hey Mama!
Do you know what God has called you to do, or have an idea of what it is, but feel unqualified, unprepared, and lacking in the skills needed to accomplish that? Or maybe you don’t know what you are called to do, but you wake up everyday feeling unqualified to do anything more because of what happened to you or choices you made in the past. Well guess what, God says you ARE qualified, and you do have all the tools you need to accomplish the amazing things you are called to do!
My past choices, my past mistakes, my past bad decisions, and my past that happened to me that was not my fault, or was my fault, it does not unqualify me. All of that, all of the junk, all of the things that I could sit and be embarrassed about, that I could be ashamed of, It’s what God used to get me here.
God can use every bad decision, every poor choice, and every mistake, everything that happened that wasn’t your fault, He uses it all. It’s what actually makes you qualified for what He has called you to do. God has already qualified you. You just don’t see it through the lens of mistakes.
God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called. You are called!
Let God take over, mama. He's all you need!

Hey Mama!
If you listened to episode 32, you have heard why praying for your kids is so important and some prayers that you can start praying over them. Today, I want you to hear from a praying mama. My mom!
She prayed for me from when she was pregnant with me and still continues to pray for me even though I am grown with my own kids. Praying for your kids is the most important job as a mom. It’s up to us to stand in the gap and pray and intercede for our kids in every area of their life.
It's because of my mom's prayers I am where I am today. Her prayers saved me from literal death. Hear what she prayed, how God led her for specific prayers, and a bit of my testimony mixed in there!

Hey Mama!
Time management is rarely something that comes naturally. I had to work to get to the point I am at today, and I still have days that I go to bed thinking oh man, I could have done better today, but that’s ok, I’ll do better tomorrow.
People are constantly asking me how I do it all, it’s my time management, my routines, my systems, but that’s not all. It’s how I do it, but it’s not the main way I do it all. It’s just a small portion of it. I know that may sound a bit confusing…So how do I do it all? Stay tuned to hear all about it!
I'm bringing three tips for you to get out of that state of overwhelm, exhaustion, depletion, fear, anxiety, depression and to break free from all of that!

Restored Mama Method
From overwhelmed with no time, to find rest and be a mindful mom - Get your JOY back!
Life is meant to be truly lived! Being a mindful mom means to be fully present in all those moments through the day. To actually LIVE in the moment, love your life (in every season). Your attitude will be peaceful, less yelling and frustration, you will live more intentional, and have time in the day to do what you love!
"Mindful: focusing one's awareness on the present moment." -Oxford Dictionary
