Episode Synopsis

We made it to 20 episodes, friends! Thanks for coming along for the ride with us! We wanted to share what our 'quiet' time with Jesus looks like right now and what it looked like pre-kids. We use the term 'quiet' very loosely, because if you're a parent, there's rarely a time when it's quiet!! We talk about some practical ways we try to get our quiet time in, what we do when quiet time doesn't look like the way we want and how we practice a rhythm of abiding in Christ every single day. We don't do it perfectly, but we wanted this episode to be an encouragement to women, mothers or not, that there is no secret sauce to quiet time, but there are ways to do it well. Hope this episode encourages you, friends! Make sure to subscribe or follow the podcast and if you have a moment, we'd love you to rate and review the podcast if you are loving our content so far.
