Im not one to tear up easily... This just filled my eyes with tears. This spoke to my core SO MUCH. I have a 1.5 year old, I'm in "re-entry"/ "normalize" right now. Its so incredible and helpful to know what im going through has a name. Ugh! I love this so much!! Thank you
This was an AMAZING episode! The fact that there is a CYCLE to motherhood 🤯, I’ve been to that “thriving” place in life, oh the guilt I’ve felt when life shifts and I’m in “survival mode” again! Thank you both so much for sharing! 💕 Looking forward to getting to know Jessica more!
Wow. Just wow. I need to listen to this again. Survival & re-entry over and over again describes my life for 30 years. I need to figure out the other steps. Thank you for this podcast!!
Im not even a mother and this spoke to me!!! Thank you Dawn and Jessica for sharing this with us!!!! Thank you both for standing firm in your faith in God and not being afraid or ashamed to talk about it!!!! Amen to needing community!!!!
Love. Love. Love. This episode! I’m 56, homeschooling our youngest. My parents have dementia (very advanced) my dad died October 19th. I’ve literally been in survival mode (mostly) since 2018. (It’s seems like one crisis after another since then.) Two days ago, I thought, “okay, I need to do some surface decluttering so I can feel “caught up” for Christmas.” Oh my goodness. It’s 48 hours later and I’m still surface Decluttering! How did this happen? 😂 I do feel like I’m in “re-entry mode.” I have a crisis on pause with my mom right now. She needs to go into “memory care.” But like the guest. I need to learn how to navigate these crises better. For today, “what that looks like” is to give myself permission to take care of “us.” Even if it means that my mom gets neglected for a day or too. (Which she’s really not being neglected, I’m just not “helicoptering” over her.
This was amazing you two! I’m currently in “re-entry” (thank you for the name!) and feeling so encourage by what you shared! My big wins this morning were spending time with Jesus in bible study & exercising. This podcast made walking on the treadmill 1000x more enjoyable and on top of it, gave me the hope I needed to hear ❤️
There were so many nuggets in this that came at the exact time I needed and just want to say.... so encouraging that even negative minded people can change. So grateful and when I get home I will take notes. So encouraging. Thank you!
Before the interview was finished I already forwarded it on to my family! I know this was intended for motherhood, but I think it's valuable information that ANYONE can use in ANY phase of life! Well done, ladies! And thank you for sharing your faith. My heart and mind was already thinking how the Lord could help with each step, and before you finished explaining, you jumped right it with how the Lord designed us and can help us thrive. THANK YOU! ~Wendy
Although I appreciate the advice in this video, I am just advocating for us autism, mamas, or mamas with children with extreme needs. This season of life will not pass quickly. We will always have this path to take. I am recognizing that our journey is hard and it should not be brushed aside.
What if you have no idea what things are supposed to look like. I worked from the age of 20 to 37 on 3rd shift. I never figured out what was supposed to be done in adult life like cleaning and decluttering. I always felt like I was in survival mode. It's been getting better. Thank God! 3 years later.
Homeschooling mana of 6 here. I've been listening/ learning from you Dawn since your beginning on RUclips and have been so thankful for your wisdom. I finally feel like my decluttering muxmscles are exercised well and just in time. We just moved and I need to practice what you have taught me, big time! Blessings from PEI Canada!!
I have listened to this episode twice today... I'll probably listen again tomorrow! It spoke RIGHT to how I've been feeling for so long... but now, I see a light at the end of the tunnel!💜🙌🏻 Thank you, Dawn & Jessica, and thank you, God, for leading me to this episode today!💜🙌🏻
I think it’s so like humble Dawn not to even mention her own weekly study program, despite a perfectly natural set-up. Ha! Glad Jessica brought it up. Dawn’s decluttering by faith workbook is awesome and it sounds like there is really so much wisdom in Jessica’s approach to motherhood as well. It helps to name the phases and recognize patterns! Wish I’d had this when my kids were littles!
Thank you so much for the reminder, that probably most of us are feeling lonely and it’s not just me. Also so valuable to hear, that it took three people to organise the get together. It’s not just me having to tackle it all. When we allow ourselves to open up, we surely will encounter people who are in the same boat!

I needed this-and I’m an empty nester. I don’t often take notes during a podcast, but I did this time! Thank you!💜💜
Wow this was so good! Thanks for introducing her to us, Dawn.

WOW...off the charts.....talk about a home run!! SO SO many great tips!!
Thank you both!!
Uuuugh, get rid of the male announcer. You are enough and are so friendly. He sounds fake, insincere, and not good for your company image.
She’s amazing at such a young age! Thank you so much,Dawn!!!!

Please the man voice makes the podcast seems less genuine
That’s ridiculous!
Really needed this!!! New mom to a 3-month-old baby girl and this was so helpful.
So much wisdom in such a young age? Wow, love it! ❤️
This episode inspired me so much! It fits so well with alot of my thoughts recently. Thank you so much! ❤❤❤❤
I enjoy all the podcasts, but this was incredibly helpful by far.

This was excellent!! So grateful for both of you ladies, your wisdom, and the grace to share it! XOXO
I needed this!! Mother of a 3 year old and a 4 month old! Hugely needed
God bless you ladies for all your love and encouragement !!!!!!!
I LOVE your podcasts…..with guests, or Diana, or Tom, or just you Dawn! I love things I can listen to while I’m doing something else!! Thank you!
So good! Thank you both so much. I, too, needed this so much today!
Do you have a link to the atomic habits book? And who the author is? Thank you in advance.
This was so incredibly timely for me, thank you THANK YOU!!!
Second listen of this video and it's blessing me all over again. Being a mom is hard!
Good info. Great video dawn.
Excellent interview!! Great guest!!!💞
Goosebumps and all the warm feels. 😊❤
I needed this today.

I needed this today. I’m so thankful God used you both to encourage and help me with some things I’m dealing with. Thank you!
I'm past the age of young children... but this really spoke to mean in dealing with many challenges! Thank you & may God bless you!
This was SO good .. and timely! I'll be listening again AND sharing it with a few others I know who need the encouragement. Thank you!

You ladies are so wise. Thank you for sharing this wonderful information.
So good to hear about your son's change toward positivity. Now how do I do this when my 13yo daughter?
Thank you so much for the reminder, that probably most of us are feeling lonely and it’s not just me. Also so valuable to hear, that it took three people to organise the get together. It’s not just me having to tackle it all. When we allow ourselves to open up, we surely will encounter people who are in the same boat!
This is the best information I have heard in quite some time, thank you so much for sharing!
This was particularly lovely and really spoke to me ❤
Such a good video. The story at 17:29 really made me think.
❤❤❤
Soo good!! 😭🥹🙏🏼🙌🏼🫂🫶🏻☝🏼💕🥰😇💗
