Do you long for time to spend with Jesus? Have you found yourself needing a hug from your husband, so you feel wanted? Do you feel guilty wishing there was more to your life than wiping noses and doing dishes? Are you drowning in the responsibilities of just being Mom? Do you wonder why your pre-mom routines are no longer working?

I am so excited that you are here! This podcast will help find peace with the time you do have, start rebuilding routines you need to stay sane, invite you to see yourself how God sees you, and find joy in motherhood.
Hi, I’m Cheryl! Wife, SAHM of two girls, Mom Mentor and Jesus follower. For years, I struggled to fit myself into the same routines, spiritual habits and identity I had as a newly married woman.
I was frustrated, discouraged and depressed when all I felt at the end of the day was worthless because I couldn’t accomplish all the things I used to be able to do.
I finally realized in trying to meet everyone’s needs except my own, I had forgotten who I was and, if I was going to have any joy in motherhood, I had to discover who I had become.
I had to rediscover my identity, prioritize my mental, spiritual, and even physical health so I could be the mom my girls needed.
If you’re ready to ditch the mom guilt for peace, find Jesus in the middle of the dishes, and love yourself like your babies do, this podcast is for you.
Grab your ear pods and start folding laundry, this is Time for Mom.

  • 76 | Moms Need Community? The Truth About Support, Stress, and Mom Guilt - Devotion
    Apr 24 2026

    Do you ever feel mom guilt creeping in because you think you should be able to declutter, manage the house, and hold everything together without help?

    Have you noticed how comparison steals your self-worth — especially when you assume other SAHMs are doing it all alone (even though they aren’t)?

    Are you carrying priorities that God never asked you to carry, trying to prove your self-esteem through self-sufficiency instead of letting community support you?

    If so, you’re in the right place.

    Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom.

    In this episode, I’m sharing the truth about clutter and community so you can build a peaceful home with support, not burnout.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Decluttering is emotional — “what if” thinking keeps moms stuck in clutter cycles.

    • Boundaries protect your peace — even “helpful” items can derail your decluttering progress.

    • Moms need community — Scripture shows we’re designed to carry burdens together, not alone.

    • Receiving help is biblical — like Moses, moms thrive when others hold up their arms.

    • Your story matters — every messy moment becomes part of your God‑given testimony.

  • 75 | No Purpose in Motherhood? Let's Find Your Dream Again Special Guest Nicole Naicker
    Apr 22 2026
    Did your dream and goals vanish when you became a mom? Do you feel stuck in the mundane and repetitive routines that seem to consume mothers? Have you wondered if motherhood overwhelmed your purpose in life? If so, you’re in the right place. Hi, Beautiful! I’m Cheryl — wife, SAHM, Coach and Mom Mentor. I learned the not‑so‑secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus, building simple routines that supported my priorities, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self‑esteem and self‑worth really look like in everyday motherhood. In Time for Mom, we have honest conversations about comparison, practical devotional moments, and encouragement you can tuck into the cracks of your day. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity, and love yourself the way your babies already do — grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone. It’s Time for Mom. Today’s guest, Nicole Naicker, is a Life coach, wife, boy mom and entrepreneur who helps Christian women who feel stuck (in anxiety, self-doubt and limiting beliefs) gain clarity on their purpose, define success through their faith, and set goals that align with the life they believe God is calling them to live. She works with women who are ready to move past self-doubt, trust God’s direction, and start taking meaningful steps toward their calling. In this episode, we are discussing how your priorities change when you become a mom so you can see how motherhood isn't the end but an expansion of your God given purpose. Key takeaways: There is Purpose in Every Season of Motherhood – Motherhood may feel repetitive and mundane, but God weaves purpose into every season, role, and responsibility. Your dreams don’t disappear when you become a mom — they expand. God’s Strength in Your Weakness You don’t have to be confident on your own. God uses your gifts, your limitations, and even your hard days to shape you, grow you, and prepare you for what’s next. Discovering Your Calling Through Your Gifts If you feel unsure about your purpose, start with prayer, your natural gifts, your interests, and the feedback of people who know you. Write it all down and look for the overlap — your calling often hides in what feels ordinary to you. Motherhood as Sacred Preparation Raising children develops new skills, deepens compassion, and strengthens resilience. These aren’t detours from your purpose — they’re part of the preparation for future dreams, work, and ministry. Waiting Well Without Losing Heart Dreams may feel paused, but they aren’t dead. Waiting is not passivity — it’s a posture of faith. Motherhood is a beautiful chapter in your story, not the end of it. If you don't know what your dream or purpose is what can you do? Pray and ask God for clarity. Identify your natural gifts and talents — what comes easily to you. Ask trusted people what they see in you if you’re unsure. Notice your interests and what you genuinely enjoy. Write everything down so you can see it clearly. Look for the overlap — that’s often where your purpose begins to take shape. Your gifts won't seem like they are extraordinary to you 🌿 What do you do ff you feel your dreams are dead? Feeling like your dreams have faded is completely normal, especially in a season where motherhood is sacred but often unseen and unpraised. Modern moms carry heavier expectations than ever, but having a child doesn’t erase your purpose — it adds a new layer to it. Motherhood is one of the most meaningful callings you’ll ever walk in, and it grows skills, strength, and wisdom you’ll carry into every future dream. Your purpose isn’t gone — it’s being expanded and prepared. God is shaping you through this season for what comes next. Ask yourself: What might God be preparing me for through the very things that feel small, repetitive, or hidden right now?
