72 | How to Have Quiet Time Without Guilt & Grace Filled: A Conversation With Kate Sheets From Selah Publications | Intentionality | Rest | Rhythms for Christian Women
Hey lovely 🤍 In today’s episode of the Lovely Home Podcast, I’m joined by a very special guest: Kate Sheets, the owner and founder of Selah Publications—a faith-based paper goods brand creating the most beautiful planners, journals, devotionals, and quiet-time companions for women who want to spend intentional time with the Lord. This conversation is for the Christian woman who feels like her quiet time “has” to look a certain way—a perfect morning routine, a candle, a set schedule, uninterrupted silence… and then the guilt hits when real life doesn’t cooperate. Kate and I talk about how to release that pressure and instead build grace-filled rhythms that invite God into your whole day—whether you’re a mom with littles, in a busy season, or simply feeling overwhelmed by hustle culture. We discuss: Why beauty matters to women (and why it’s not vanity) How faith-based journals can feel like a “date with Jesus” (so you actually want to pick them up) A guilt-free approach to quiet time rhythms, including the SOAP Bible Study Method How to practice intentionality instead of hustle What to do when you feel lost, overwhelmed, spiraling, or out of control The powerful question: “What is my unmet desire?” The spiritual and practical encouragement of “Selah”—pausing with God and finding peace in the waiting If you’ve been craving rest, clarity, Christian encouragement, a slow-living mindset, and practical ways to stay close to Jesus throughout the day, this episode is for you.

71 | Boxes vs. Threads: Why Women Need Rhythms (Not Rigid Routines) | Healthy Habits | Creating Habits | Overwhelmed Wife to Grace Filled Bride | How to Make a Routine Stick
Hey Lovely, If you’ve ever tried to “get on a routine” only to feel discouraged the moment you miss a step… this episode is for you. In today’s conversation on the Lovely Home Podcast, Evelyn breaks down rhythms vs. routines—why they aren’t the same, and why so many women feel burnt out, overwhelmed, and guilty while genuinely trying their best. We’ll blend science, structure, Scripture, and practical homemaking help in a way that feels clarifying (not heavy). You’ll learn why many popular habit systems were designed with a more linear, “box-based” approach—and why a woman’s brain often operates more like a connected thread. Then we’ll build a simpler, sustainable alternative: pillars—broad categories that guide your day without demanding perfection. Inside this episode, you’ll learn: The difference between a fixed routine and a flexible rhythm Why “missing one step” can trigger guilt—and how to break that cycle How to create your own rhythm using 3 simple pillars (and expand later) Evelyn’s morning rhythm pillars: Something Lovely, Helpful, Active, Body, Holy A brain-based look at habits: prefrontal cortex, amygdala, hippocampus Biblical encouragement for discipline without shame (including Isaiah 41:10, Hebrews 12:11, Romans 12:2) A special encouragement for newlywed brides and seasoned wives: you don’t have to prove perfection—you can rest in grace If you’re ready to build a home life that feels supportive instead of suffocating, press play—and grab your planner, a journal, a pen, and something cozy to sip.

69 | Messy Kitchen? Lovely Rhythms and Organizing Tips to Help You Feel More Grace and Less Guilt in Your Kitchen | Manage Your Kitchen Like a Homemaker Boss
Hey, lovely 💛 Welcome back to the Lovely Home Podcast—where we trade grace over guilt and learn how to create rhythms that actually work for your real life, your real brain, and your real home. In today’s episode, we’re diving into kitchen rhythms and routines—but not in a “perfect countertops” kind of way. We’re talking about building a lovely, lived-in, guilt-free kitchen that serves you and your family with more peace, better flow, and less stress. You’ll start with a simple but powerful 5-senses reset to help you look at your kitchen with “lovely eyes” (even if there are dishes in the sink). Then we walk through four practical questions that will help you understand your kitchen better—and finally create changes that stick: What’s the chaos? (What’s frustrating, stressful, or constantly piling up?) What’s the calm? (What’s already working well—habits, systems, or set-ups that bring peace?) What goes? (What are 3 things you can literally remove to free up space and mental load?) What flows? (What physical items make your kitchen function better?) I also share my real-life “kitchen pain points” and the exact solutions I’m using—like my pausing station, writing sweet notes with dry erase markers on the fridge, my drink drawer, and the absolute game-changer: Slow Cooker Sunrise (a genius habit that helped me wake up earlier, meal prep effortlessly, and feel more present in my mornings). We’ll also touch on the brain science behind clutter—how a messy environment can increase stress and make it harder for your prefrontal cortex to function well, while your amygdala flares and your hippocampus struggles (hello, brain fog). And we’ll ground it all in Scripture as we talk about building your home with wisdom and living in a way that honors God. If you’ve ever thought: “Why is my kitchen always messy?” or “Why can’t I be good enough at keeping it clean?” this episode is your gentle-but-practical reset to stop attacking your temple and start building a kitchen rhythm with confidence—because you’re the boss of your kitchen. And yes… we also end with a spicy Would You Rather Bible question that will absolutely make you pause and think.

67| Habits I’m Leaving in 2025 VS What I’m Bringing Into 2026 + New Year NOT New You Encouragement | Slow and Cozy living | Mindful Christian Wife | New Year Resolutions | New Year Goal Setting
Hey lovely — welcome back to The Lovely Home Podcast! I’m your host, Evelyn, and I’m here to help you refocus on grace over guilt in your mind, life, and home as a Christian homemaker. In today’s first “official” episode of 2026, we’re doing a fresh-start check-in the grace-filled way: habits I’m leaving in 2025 and habits I’m bringing with me into 2026. We talk about realistic homemaking rhythms (not perfection), how clutter and overwhelm affect your brain, and the simple shifts that can help you feel more calm, focused, and “back to yourself” when you walk in the door. Inside this episode, I share: The habit I’m officially breaking: letting my bathroom sink become a clutter catch-all A habit I’m keeping: creating and protecting a “Place of Peace” (a spot that’s just for restoration, hobbies, Bible study, and feeling like you) The habit I’m leaving behind: using my Place of Peace as storage (no more “I’ll deal with that later” piles!) A brand-new rhythm that’s helping my nervous system: my Pausing Station (a quick reset moment when I get home so I stop doom scrolling and stop tossing clutter everywhere) A mindset shift I’m practicing this year: cleaning before things “look dirty” (especially counters and high-touch spaces) Then we wrap with a sweet, Christ-centered encouragement for the new year: it’s a new day and a new year… but not a new you. The world says “new year, new you,” but we’re leaning into the peace of knowing your identity is already held by God — and you are loved, known, and covered by grace. I also read Matthew 6:26–30 as a reminder that you don’t have to carry the pressure of perfection into this year. And to end our episode, we kick off the first Would You Rather of 2026 from a lovely listener: Would you rather have a perfectly clean house but no quiet time… or plenty of peaceful quiet time but a house that’s always a little messy?

66 | 7 Grace-Filled Questions to Reset Your Home for 2026 (Without Guilt) Using the Acronym: RHYTHMS | Christian Woman Podcast | New Year Goals | Habits and Routines
Hey Lovely — it’s basically 2026, and if the internet is already making you feel behind… we’re not doing that here. In today’s episode of the Lovely Home Podcast, we’re preparing for the new year with grace-filled homemaking, Christian encouragement, and a simple reflection framework that helps you reset your mind, life, and home without the guilt spiral. I’m sharing my easy-to-remember acronym "RHYTHMS"—seven anchored questions to help you release pressure, honor God’s expectations (not man’s), notice what’s already working in your home, and identify the stress points that are trying to tell you something. We talk through real-life examples (including the measuring cups drama 🤍), why “tension” in your home is often a systems problem, not a character problem, and how to create tiny rhythms that support your energy, faith, and family—like my new “pausing station” that has been saving my kitchen island. We’ll also dive into what “lovely” actually means (hint: it’s exquisitely beautiful, and it looks different for every woman) and end with my favorite question of the entire episode: If grace were the foundation of your homemaking in 2026… what would you change? Plus, we wrap up with a hilarious listener-submitted Would You Rather that will absolutely make you laugh. 😂 In this episode, you’ll learn: How to reset for the new year without “do more / try harder” energy The RHYTHMS acronym for a grace-centered home refresh How to spot your home’s “tension points” and what they’re really saying A faith-rooted way to define a “lovely home” without comparison A simple rhythm that helps your nervous system settle when you walk in the door How to bring God into homemaking as everyday worship (Deuteronomy 6:4–9) LINKS LINKS LINKS: Snag your lovely home planner and use code "CHRISTMAS25" BEFORE January 1st!!

Willpower, God’s Kingdom, and the Rhythms That Shape a Christian Home In today’s deeply encouraging episode of The Lovely Home Podcast, we’re diving into willpower—but not the way the world defines it.

Together, we walk through: ✨ What willpower actually means ✨ Why worldly willpower leaves us exhausted ✨ How Christian willpower is fueled by God’s strength, not our own ✨ The tug-of-war between building our kingdom and living for God’s kingdom ✨ How habits, rhythms, and small choices throughout the day shape our spiritual walk ✨ Why faith sometimes makes us look “crazy” to the world—and why that’s a blessing ✨ How asking “How can I spend God’s will right now?” changes everything in your home and heart You’ll learn how to view willpower as the “tender of the mind,” how to spend it wisely and biblically, and how to step into a kingdom-minded rhythm that glorifies God in the ordinary and the lovely. This episode is your reminder that: 🌿 You don’t have to be strong. 🌿 You don’t have to build your own kingdom. 🌿 God offers you His will, His strength, and His path—every single morning.

Recording from Harrisburg, PA, I’m sharing 10 lovely lessons summer taught me—from realizing I’m not the main character (Jesus is), to practicing presence, laughing through a cringe-y voicemail, falling for pickleball and the beach, and simple rhythms like a car catch-all bin, the SOAP Bible study method, and an “Everything Notebook.” Consider this your grace-filled reset as we step into fall: less guilt, more peace, and practical little swaps (yes, even toothpaste!) that make everyday life lovelier.

57 | How About Some Jesus? How the Story of Saul to Paul Can Encourage the Modern Christian Wife | Spiritual Encouragement | Christian Podcast
This week's episode was one I felt that I needed to make, even though it doesn't match our normal theme of talking about rhythms and routines in our lovely homes. Last week was a very emotional week for not only me, but for our world as well. So many dark things have happened in life, many dark things aren't even being brought to life, but I think after hearing one bad thing after another on the news a lot of people cracked. This episode is not a political one. So please know that if you are not wanting to hear political opinions, you are safe with this episode. For the majority of the episode I discuss the life of Paul. I have been reading Colossians, and after the events that were brought to light and shared / heard around the world, I was able to read Colossians in a way I have never read before. I pray that this episode encourages you and motivates you to dive deep into the word of God. I pray that HIS voice will be far louder than mine. I think a lot of us have been experiencing a wake up call. A wake up call that I'm calling a Spiritual nudge. I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode, as well as get to know you more as a sister in Christ, so please feel free to reach out via email: [email protected] The piano at the end of the music was produced and composed by me. I don't know what exactly I'm supposed to say, but please don't steal it. Please forgive the annoying puppy dog sounds you may be hearing through your earphones. Ember wanted to say hello... a lot. You are lovely, and so is your home and you are a good person. Jesus Loves You.
