150. The Whole and Healthy Family: Helping Your Kids Thrive in Mind, Body, and Spirit | Jodi Mockabee

While there are many things that make us different as mothers, there is one thing we all have in common: we want to see our children thrive. Homeschooling mother of five, Jodi Mockabee, joins me today for a conversation about her new book, The Whole and Healthy Family, where she walks through how we can support our kids’ well-being in mind, body, and spirit. We covered so much ground in this conversation—from parenting babies all the way up to older teens—that moms in all stages will benefit from listening in. I feel like Jodi and I could have continued talking forever, and I hope you feel like you are sitting down with us having a chat about all the things that make motherhood so beautiful and challenging and worth it.

In this episode, we cover:

What it means to support your child in mind, body, and spirit
How to approach extracurricular activities in a way that doesn’t overtake your schedule
Noticing and adapting to each child’s individual personality, strengths, and weaknesses
A discussion on picking your battles in parenting based on what matters most to you
How parenting can change from the oldest children in a family to the youngest
Beginning the transition of teens spending more time outside the home
Creating time to spend with each individual child in a large family
The surprising ways that simplifying your home can bring peace to your family
Recognizing and addressing the mental clutter that comes from technology
