| 8/29/26 | 205. Hard-Won Wisdom: What Motherhood Is Teaching Us About Identity, Home & Becoming with Kim Walker Kerkvliet | Today I’m talking with Kim, a mom of five, faith-rooted encourager, and the woman behind Ellie & the Boys and the Moms Collective Journal.Kim has walked through some incredibly hard seasons of motherhood—including single parenting and remarriageafter losing a spouse—and she brings a beautiful perspective to what it means to show up intentionally, not perfectly, in the everyday work of making a house a home.She started a life long dream of creating a magazine for moms and we’re talking about her fall issue of Moms Collective Journal, but really, we’re talking about something much deeper: the stories and hard-wonwisdom we carry as mothers, the rhythms that bring warmth back into our homes, and what motherhood is actually doing in us. She welcomes us to make a shift ifwe need to...right as we are shifting into fall. The timing of this conversation is truly *chef's kiss.*Please join me in welcoming Kim Walker Kerkvliet to the show.

It's the only planner I've used multiple years in a row. It helps me organize my homeschool schedule, keep records, make book lists, budget, meal plan, organize travel plans, track personal goals…all while feeding me constant drips of scripture along the way. Did I mention it has a bookmark AND perforated lists? The Sparrow Homeschool Planner just gets better and better every year. And to make it even sweeter for you, the code LORIBETH will get you 10% off this year's planner! It's available in a full color printed (that I think is totally worth it for the perforated lists alone) or as digital download. Go to www.sparrowhomeschool.com to get yours and usethe code LORIBETH at checkout for 10% off your order. | — | ||||||
| 8/23/26 | 204. Helping Your Kids Navigate Dating: A Christian Parent’s Guide to Healthy Relationships with Monica Swanson | Click Here for Your Teaching Textbooks Free Trial What do you do when your teenager wants to start dating?What if they’re already dating—and you’re not sure you love the relationship they’re in?What if you have preteens? How do you talk to your kids about attraction, boundaries, healthy relationships, heartbreak, and ultimately marriage without making them feel like you’re completely out of touch with their world?These are conversations so many parents find themselves navigating, and honestly, they aren’t always easy.Today I’m talking with someone I’m especially excited to have back on the show: Monica Swanson. Monica is the author of Boy Mom, Raising Amazing, and Becoming Homeschoolers, and she hosts the Monica Swanson Podcast. She and her husband, Dr. Dave, have raised their four sons on the North Shore of Oahu in Hawaii, so we have that fun Hawaii connection as well.Monica is passionate about helping parents apply biblical wisdom to family life and encouraging moms to live whole and healthy lives. She is an author and podcaster after my own heart. This is actually Monica’s second time on Elevating Motherhood. Monica was one of my very first author interviews when this podcast was just getting started. So it was really special to reconnect with her for this conversation.Today we’re getting practical about helping our kids navigate dating from a biblical perspective—how to guide them toward healthy friendships and relationships, how to communicate with them, what to do when you have concerns about someone they’re dating, and how to help them understand dating as something we pursue when we’re ready to find a spouse.And if your kids aren’t dating yet, don’t tune this one out. The conversations you have before they start dating can make a tremendous difference in how they navigate relationships when the time comes.God’s ways are always best. And helping our kids understand that—while also giving them practical wisdom for navigating real relationships—is one of the most important conversations we can have with them.Monica also has a character training course coming out this Fall! I trust Monica’s parenting wisdom so much and am really looking forward to the course for my own family. Be sure to check today’s show notes for the link to that course (which includes even more dating insights!). Please Visit Today’s Sponsor: Teaching TextbooksWe completely switched up the way we’re doing math, and we’re now using Teaching Textbooks—and it has been a game changer. It has freed up so much time in our homeschool day, and honestly, it has helped me overcome some of my own insecurities as a homeschool mom when it comes to teaching math. My kids are learning at a much faster pace and our homeschool and my relationships with my kids are better for it. I love that my kids can work independently, get immediate feedback, and still have a highly effective math education without me feeling like I have to carry the entire weight of teaching everything. If you’re looking for a stress-free, effective math solution for your homeschool, I highly recommend trying Teaching Textbooks.

Raising Independent Kids: Teaching Life Skills That Prepare Children for Adulthood with Katie Kimball | Teaching Textbooks Free Trial: https://www.teachingtextbooks.com/?cid=LORIBETHTeens Cook Real Food Link: https://sl290.isrefer.com/go/teenscook/loribeth/What does it actually look like to raise kids who are confident, capable, and ready for the world?As parents, we spend so much time protecting our children, helping them, and making life run smoothly for them—but sometimes the very things we do out of love can unintentionally keep them from developing the skills and confidence they need to thrive.Today, I’m excited to welcome Katie Kimball back to Elevating Motherhood for the second time. Katie is the founder of Kids Cook Real Food and creator of Teens Cook Real Food, and she has a passion for helping families raise healthy, independent adults.But this conversation goes far beyond cooking.We’re talking about what it means to empower our kids at every age, how to give them opportunities to grow, and why independence isn’t something we suddenly hand over when they turn 18—it’s something we cultivate throughout childhood.Katie shares some hilarious stories, including the story of her daughter’s college orientation, the infamous knucklehead and the steak story, and some moments that perfectly illustrate what happens when we let our kids practice, fail, learn, and become more capable.Whether you have toddlers, elementary-aged kids, teenagers, or kids who are already preparing to launch, this conversation is full of wisdom and encouragement for any parent who wants to raise children who are confident in who they are and capable of caring for themselves and others.I always appreciate Katie’s practical, grounded approach, and I know this conversation is going to give you plenty to thinkabout.

They’re creating environments where people feel known, loved, and deeply cared for.Today’s conversation is one I have been so excited to share with you. I’m talking with Marci Ferrell, author of Homemaking Matters—a book that has landed in my top two favorite books I’ve read this year.And I have to tell you… this book is about so much more than homemaking.Yes, we talk about creating a home. But what I love most about Marci’s message is that she gets to the heart behind it all: our mindset, our attitudes, our priorities, and the posture of our hearts as we move through everyday life.This conversation is filled with wisdom that reaches far beyond homemaking. It’s about becoming the kind of woman who intentionally creates beauty, connection, and meaning in the spaces God has placed her.Marci is one of those people whose wisdom feels both grounding and encouraging. I walked away from thisconversation with so many things to think about, and I truly believe you will too.So whether you consider yourself a homemaker, or you’re simply a woman who wants to live with more intention and purpose, I think this conversation is going to encourage youdeeply.The For the Love of Homeschooling Back-to-School Mega Bundle, Volume 6 is officially here, and if you're looking for fresh inspiration for the school year ahead, you're going to love this.For just $25, you'll get over 100 digital homeschool resources covering everything from language arts and math to history, science, nature study, geography, art, planners, encouragement for moms, and so much more.

| 7/27/26 | 200. Calm, Confident Motherhood, Part 1 | WOW! 200!From the bottom of my heart...thank you.Thank you, friends, for showing up week after week and supporting the Elevating Motherhood Podcast for nearly six years. Whether you've been listening since Episode 1 or you just recently found this little corner of the internet, I want you to know how grateful I am that you're here.This podcast has always been for you.It's been an incredible privilege to have conversations with authors, educators, experts, and fellow moms who have encouraged us to become more intentional in our motherhood, homeschooling, parenting, and faith. Together, we've explored everything from raising confident children and creating meaningful family culture to finding joy, purpose, and peace in the everyday work of motherhood.Reaching 200 episodes feels like more than a milestone, it feels like the beginning of a whole new chapter. Over the next few months, I'm opening my heart in a way I never have before here on the show. This is Part 1 of a new series where I'll be sharing the years-long journey that led me to what I now call calm, confident motherhood. I'll be sharing the stories, mindset shifts, lessons, and convictions that transformed the way I approach motherhood and, ultimately, the way I experience it.My hope is that these episodes don't simply encourage you, but that they help you see what's possible. That motherhood doesn't have to feel like something to survive. That peace isn't reserved for a select few. That confidence can be cultivated. And that, little by little, we can become the mothers we hope our children remember.Thank you for allowing me to be a small part of your motherhood journey. It is a responsibility I don't take lightly, and I pray these conversations continue to encourage and equip you for years to come.If the Elevating Motherhood Podcast has encouraged you over the years, would you help me celebrate 200 episodes by leaving a rating and written review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify? Reviews help more moms discover the show, and they truly mean more than you know.Thank you for listening, for sharing episodes with friends, for sending thoughtful messages, and for being part of this wonderful community.Here's to the next chapter. I'm so glad you're here. | — | ||||||

Words Like Honey: Why the Way We Talk to Our Kids Matters So Much with Author Amy Hughes | Today’s conversation is a special one.I’m joined by Amy Hughes, author of Words Like Honey,a book that gently reminds us of the power our words carry, especially in our closest relationships. Amy writes with honesty and tenderness about how our speech shapes the atmosphere of our homes, the hearts of our children, and eventhe way we see ourselves. (And she does it in such a way that she doesn’t make moms feel like jerks when our words aren’t like honey).This isn’t a conversation about saying everything perfectly or getting it right all the time. It’s about becoming more aware, more intentional, and more compassionate with the words we choose, especially on the hard days.In this episode, Amy and I talk about motherhood, faith, grace, and what it looks like to let our words be a source of life rather than pressure. If you’ve ever wished you could rewind amoment and speak differently, or if you’re longing for a softer, more peaceful tone in your home, this conversation is for you.Amy’s Bio: Amy Hughes is a mother of nine, a writer, a speaker, and a parenting coach living on the central coast of California. A featured writer for Wild + Free, Amy is a sought-after keynote and conference speaker and has been published in Scary Mommy, (in)Courage, Simplify Magazine, The Fallow House, The Natural Family, Rhythm of the Home, Christian Unschooling, and more. She reads too many books and drinks too much coffee, plus she thinks she’s incredibly funny. I’m so grateful to share Amy and her work with you today.
