Navigating the Messy Middle: Embracing Challenges and Finding Clarity

The Encourager Podcast: Equipping Christian Moms to Harmonize Work and Home

In this episode of The Encourager, I’m opening up about my “messy middle”—a season of business that’s been unexpectedly challenging, even after 20 years in the game. Join me as I share what this season looks like, what I’m doing to keep things basic and manageable, and how focusing on the next 60 days has brought clarity and peace.

I dive into the essentials I’ve returned to, from blocking out time intentionally to revisiting the “why” behind my work. I also discuss the visual tools that help me stay on track: a refreshed vision board, a habit tracker for consistency, and our weekly Honey Huddle meetings that help Nick and me stay aligned.

Key Takeaways:

• Returning to Basics: Reassessing priorities and going back to foundational work habits.

• Visual Tools for Consistency: Using a vision board, habit tracker, and Honey Huddle for clarity.

• Focusing on Short-Term Goals: Setting sights on the next 60 days to create momentum without feeling overwhelmed.

Whether you’re in a messy middle or just need a reset, this episode offers encouragement to keep moving forward, one manageable step at a time.
