Unshakable with Kirsten Tyrrel

Mommas! We have something really special to share on today's episode! Keia was on the podcast a couple of months ago and after our talk (and several others after it) we realized how much we wanted to work with each other! We have a shared passion for teaching others and we're sharing on this episode how we plan to do just that!

The other day during "chore time" my kids decided instead of taking 5 minutes to do something, they'd take 3 hours. This opened up the doors for a math lesson, a time management lesson, and even brought out the dominos for an object lesson in cause and effect! Listen in for five minutes to see how THESE five minutes changed their minds about chores!

Hey moms! Today is a BONUS episode- intended to be a Five Minute Friday but I had a LOT to say. This episode was recorded after a few others that are coming in the very near future- and you can FEEL the energy shift in my voice. And my voice is the exact topic of conversation today. I had a really amazing experience in Florida last month and wanted to share it publicly. And this is just one of many wonderful moments- but it was life changing and I never want to forget it!

Today's episode is one that was originally going to air on the podcast "Full Time Family"- a whim I had months ago. I decided to instead present it as a series here within Marvelous Moms to keep all the great content in one easy to find place! Kindle is my inspiration for the homeschool life we are living right now. She is THE person to follow and learn from if you are toying around with the idea, or need some empowerment as a homeschool mom. We covered a LOT of ground here and got pretty deep into our beliefs about the school system and why we are not just homeschooling to combat what we see are the FLAWS, but rather the beauty that we are finding and the positives in schooling our children from home. You may not know this- but all homeschool parents get asked the same basic questions and are met with the same reactions from parents who do not homeschool. I asked Kindle to debunk or demystify three of those main things we get asked about or the assumptions people make- and her answers were fantastic.

It's a Five Minute Friday yo! Today I'm talking (rather ranting and rambling) about my journey through self esteem, and how I went from a lazy teen to a self aware adult. I'm finally realizing now- how beauty isn't about the makeup, the clothes or the hair. It's about your light- who you are and really just BEING yourself. Cliche? Yep. But I'm ok with it- and I hope you glean something from this short episode!

Hey everybody... aren't you so glad we're still here? Marvelous Moms Club has brought so much inspiration to thousands of people and I want it to continue as long as possible! Today I have my friend Renee on the podcast. She is FULL of said inspiration and she is marvelous to listen to. Here are some things we talked about: When she started thriving and wanted to share it with everyone else How she manages her time Books! Going from nothing to six figures in ten months!! Life on social media Making a difference in the lives of others Much more! If this episode spoke to you in any way, please feel free to share if with your family and friends. Spread that inspiration like wildfire! Now that you're in love with Renee, don't forget to follow her on Instagram. Catch you all next week! xoxo, Kirsten

I played with your heart momma! I told you we were ending the podcast a few episodes ago- and I am taking it back. Eating my words and changing my mind. I'm like a professional mind changer. But I promise it's for a good reason and I can't wait for you to listen to this episode. Making shifts to get into alignment is incredibly important!

Hey Marvelous Moms! I've got my friend Steffanie Wing on the podcast today. Among other things, we discuss the oh-so-dreaded postpartum depression and anxiety. This topic will never not need to be talked about! Please join us and learn a thing or two. Follow Steffanie on on Instagram!

Hey Marvelous Moms! Today on the podcast I'm talking with a good friend of mine, Keia Blake. She is the kind of person who loves to learn and apply her knowledge to her daily life. We talk to a lot of moms on here who work from home. Did you know that it's possible to work a corporate job from home? That's right. You don't have to sit in an office building to be a loan officer (what Keia does) or something similar. We talk about that too! Hope you enjoy this episode, and as always, have a Marvelous day! Follow Keia on Instagram and on her website.

Angie Chandler is on the podcast today! This episode sums up pretty well the whole point of the Marvelous Moms Club Podcast. I say that because Angie gives some really good parenting advice I hadn't thought of before! And, she also has found a way to use her passions to help others. Angie used to be a teacher. Now, instead of reaching just 22 students in a classroom, she reaches the lives of thousands! To find the "Mom store" pages we talk about in the episode, go to Angie's Etsy page.

Today I'm sharing about something super exciting that we are doing as a family, something I have been dreaming of for over 10 years! That led me to think- how many of our dreams do we give up on when they haven't happened in a year, or even a few months? Did you know it took Michelangelo 4 years to complete the Sistine Chapel? The coliseum took 10 years to finish, the leaning tower of Pisa took 199 years to be completed... So, are you giving your big dreams long enough to come true?

Do you ever wish you were one of "those families" that got to travel a lot? It seems impossible to do when you have kids, a demanding job, and so much more on your plate!

It's important that we have awareness and start taking action steps and loving ourselves NOW to become the women we are striving to be!

Happy Monday, Marvelous moms! Betsy Mikesell is on the podcast today.

Listen in to hear about the first time a high vibration moment made me cry!

More often than not, the things I talk about in my interviews with people end up being exactly what I needed to hear that day!

Hey mama- today on this episode I'm chatting with you- because you are my friend- to remind you that you are doing a FANTASTIC job of raising your family. We are setting the standard WAY too high and I don't know why we do that. My parents didn't entertain me 24/7 and I have a really great, happy life. Anyone else? Let's lower our standards a bit, give ourselves a break and know that even on our worst days we are doing better than we think! Happy August momma!

We all realize we are learning far more from our children than they could ever learn from us, right? We are students to the best teachers around, these little people with so much purity and joy that we need to take time to really implement some of their amazing qualities- like forgiveness. Have you ever noticed how quickly kids forgive? Why are we so hard on ourselves for things they let go a long time ago? Today's episode is talking all about the power of forgiving just as little children!

I've got Jennifer Zumbiel on the podcast today! She's a mom of four and the creator of an AWESOME family resource called Togather Moments.

I LOVE the word MOXIE- and in case you need a definition: force of character, determination, or nerve. Basically- you're tough and nothing is getting in your way. As Shauna looked to the future she became the epitome of MOXIE, which inspired the name of her company now- Making Moxie. You should be imagining flappers and sassy women right now- women who aren't quiet. Sound like the day we live in now? You can find Shauna on Instagram or on her website.

There are moments in motherhood that can be horrific and jaw-dropping in the moment that become the best stories later. This one put me at my wits' end as a young mother, but looking back now I can't help but laugh as I envision it all over again in my mind! If you're trying to "survive" any phase of parenting, this one is for you!

Listen, we all think magic is something that happens when you wish upon a star, or requires large grandiose efforts. But what I'm discovering the longer I raise kids and reflect on my own childhood, is that magic is in the moments that create the memories! It doesn't require big trips to Disneyland, or a perfectly crafted adventure; it is many times just in the feelings and simple elements we can't even plan for!

If you've been a listener for a while, you know I've given a go to homeschooling in the past. People like Cass Miller are what has inspired me to give it another shot!

This episode will give you some great insight and motivation if you decide it's what is right for your family! http://www.cassmiller.com/

I'm not a list making mom- I'm not a "planner person", and I lack a lot of the organizational skills that other women have to help them not go insane. At least that was the "old me". Now I am evolved and realizing how something as dreadful as making a to-do list or having structure can actually help me accomplish FAR more in my life! Today's Five Minute Friday should help you to see more clearly what needs to be done and how to get to it!

Wow you guys, Alison is amazing! I was impressed just listening to her success as an entrepreneur and the businesses she's created, but when I heard what she's done with some of her kids, I was blown away!

Don't we all want the peace of mind of knowing our kids will be grow up and be able to make a living? Why not start them young?!

Listen up mamas- I know I'm not alone in this. I thought teething and potty training were tough, but there are certain phases of motherhood nobody really talks about and you're not prepared for until they happen. The play date. Can we talk about it? I dread them, I feel guilty when we don't have enough of them and I think it gets in my head far more than it needs to! But surely you can agree in some way, right? It's one more layer of thinking that we sometimes just don't have capacity for after a day of using our superhero brains! I'd love to know how you feel about "the play date"... so go leave us a comment on Instagram and weigh in!

Lahana, wife and mother of two, is the founder of Thrival Nutrition! She wanted to find a way to help women feed their families better.

Today on this special Friday episode I'm talking about the trap that many moms fall into as a school year ends.

As always, there is something for everyone to relate to. I hope you listen and enjoy!
