Holy Hot Mess - A Catholic Woman‘s Podcast: Recent Episodes
Holy Hot Mess - Christian Woman‘s Podcast
Just some chats about seeking Jesus, finding our path to holiness though the Catholic Church even when the world is a hot dang mess.
Today's Sponsor is The Little Rose Shop.
Join me as I chat about finding community or creating it where it is lacking with Kristen Combo - and then we nerd out about primitive nerve reflexes for adults and kiddos.
"Community is not just a want its a need"
Links* Kristen Combo on IG * Equipped for Motherhood * St Ann Parish in Coppell Texas * Upcoming Women's Retreat at St Ann * Pervious Episode on Primitive Nerve Reflexes * All Things Sensory Podcast * The Whole Brained Child Book * Triggers book * Look into Proprioceptive Activities on youtube to integrate in your everyday life to help kids with any retained reflexes. * I am updating the Favorites link on my website. If you browse there and need something I often have discount codes for you AND shopping those links means the podcast gets a 10-15% cutback (usually) at no cost to you! Win-win!

A solo reflection and dive into what's been weighing on my heart in participating and promoting these types of ventures. Not talking about families who generally need a second income but instead the world pushing that if you're on the internet, you might as well be making money and that leads us to be distracted, over spending, sometimes predatory in our relationships. Talk this out with me!

They're here to give insight on navigating the rocky road of marriage when trust takes a hit - everything from communication hiccups to full-blown (inevitable) crises.

As the conversation unfolds, Sarah and Patrick serve up a buffet of practical tips for mending those trust fractures and fortifying your bond. From flexing your empathy muscles to setting healthy boundaries and holding each other accountable, they've got the playbook for turning your marriage around.
They're also huge believers in seeking support when the going gets tough, which is why Patrick developed their program RESTORE Catholic Marriage.

A compassionate and loving deep dive into the back ground of this Supreme Court Ruling out of Alabama on IVF.
It's a really hard conversation to have, it is. Because in this one it's not the baby haters against the baby lovers like we like to make the abortion debate about, it's people who - (mostly) rightly, beautifully, want to become parents and doctors who (mostly) think they're doing the right thing helping these couples struggling achieve pregnancy.
But the end does not justify the means.
There is a way to say that and get the point across with someone you know intimately, love dearly, and hold their hand, help them carry their cross and walk with them on this journey toward heaven. But when we shout at people on the internet - the message of Christ's love is lost. They feel like their cross is diminished.
Let's work on our compassion, Christians.

In this episode of the Holy Hot Mess podcast, host Heather explores the question of why one should choose Catholicism over other belief systems. We need to be able to answer this question for ourselves, our children and in defense of the faith.
With so many different sects of Christianity - how do you choose? She dives into the messiness of the Catholic Church and why sticking with it because it is the True faith, despite all the imperfect humans in it is a call to obedience not one of feelings.

Episode SummaryWelcome to the Holy Hot Mess podcast, where host Heather takes you on a journey into the heart of Lent, exploring its significance, traditions, and the profound impact it can have on our spiritual lives and why the Lord through the Church requires us to enter into this season.
In this episode, Heather unravels the holy essence of Lent, also known as Quadragesima in Latin, translating to 'Fortieth.' It's a 40-day period of preparation leading up to Easter, excluding Sundays, dedicated to reflecting on the Lord’s passion, death, and resurrection. Heather delves into the biblical significance of the number 40, linking it to testing, trial, penance, purification, and renewal, drawing parallels to Jesus' 40 days in the desert.
Lent calls believers to embrace three core tenets: prayer, almsgiving, and fasting. Heather emphasizes the importance of understanding these practices, highlighting that fasting is not merely abstaining from a sin but a penitential exercise acknowledging our sins and seeking God's mercy. She recommends the book "Deliverance Prayers for the Laity" for a thorough examination of conscience.
The episode explores the concept of penance, clarifying that after a valid confession, believers are called to make reparations for the harm their sins caused. During Lent, sacrifices are made not only for personal penance but also for families, the Church, humanity, and the world.
Heather breaks down the requirements of fasting and abstinence, offering insights into who is obligated to participate and what these practices entail. Sundays, being solemnities, are exempt from fasting and abstinence, but Heather shares her family tradition of maintaining a sense of moderation on Sundays.
To round off the episode, Heather provides a diverse list of ideas for things to give up during Lent, ranging from material habits to personal behaviors. She also suggests positive practices to adopt, such as praying the rosary, engaging in daily masses, or embarking on a Lenten bible study or spiritual reading.
Join Heather on this introspective solo episode of the Holy Hot Mess podcast, as she guides you through the why and how of Lent, offering practical insights to enrich your spiritual journey.

Submission in Real Life & Bethel Church Conversion Stories with FelishaIn this episode of the Holy Hot Mess Podcast, host Heather interviews Felicia Morisette, exploring her unique journey from being a lukewarm Catholic to a worship leader at Bethel Church and eventually returning to the traditional Catholic faith. The conversation delves into the impact of a YouTube video by Fr. Chad on the Rightly Ordered Family, discussing the importance of biblical principles and roles in family life.
Heather and Felicia also share their personal experiences with biblical submission, emphasizing that it's not about inferiority or being a doormat but rather embracing God-given roles within marriage. They highlight the freedom and strength found in surrendering control, allowing their husbands to step into their roles confidently. The episode encourages listeners to approach these concepts with an open heart, trust in God's design, and embrace the beauty of biblical principles in their own faith and family journeys.

The Weight of the World This episode is a candid chat with SO many interruptions. It's funny but I just felt super called in the moment to record. The kids had given me a few moments of quiet and then BAM they kept adorably interrupting. This is life.
Always, we're chatting about media intake and all the crazy happenings of the world - not the individual things that are going on bc, ya'll it's a non stop news cycle. But more so about how the 24 hour news cycle is meant to just bombard us with breaking news to elicit an emotional response and we're NOT called, and never have been in the history of the world, to know and be deeply emotionally invested in every single news bite throughout the whole entire world at the same time. It's insanity.

The Moral Battlefield with Rachel This episode is a candid chat with Rachel K, found on Instagram as https://www.instagram.com/raychelrosemary/ or her Etsy shop at https://www.etsy.com/shop/raychelrosemary where she sells the CUTEST Catholic stickers, seasonal items, bags that I got my kiddos to take all their mass items. Literally the best.
We've been sliding into each others DMs for years now and she feels like a little IG niece or sister - but homegirl can hold her own in some RayRay rants on politics or faith. She's much tougher than I with her fortitude to endure the online battles.
We talk about everything from faith, to politics, to homeschool co ops, puking kids, and so much more.
This podcast was originally recorded in October 2021, but I suck at being a podcast host and producer so... here we are. Thank God the name of this thing is "holy hot mess" because I live up to that name well.

Head over to the Raychel Rosemary Etsy shop for the most adorable Catholic goodies - sweatshirts, stickers, and BAGS. I bought my kids each a bag in their specific color for St Nick's day last year and we're using them as mass bags. We love it. No more scrambling to find things to occupy the little people OR failing to bring the MagnifiKID for my older two to read along with the order of the mass and the readings.

She currently has keychains and stickers up on her shop and they would make great Easter basket goodies!

What exactly is a VIRTUOUS life? This episode is about the intro to a virtues study I did with my Blessed is She woman's group. Below are the ways to find your own blessed is she group. We discussed the theological and cardinal virtues then dove into what FAITH is and how the ham sandwich do you get it? How do you work on it? Towards it? It's all in this episode!

BEAUTIFUL Messiness This episode is just me spilling my heart about life being messy. I actually found this audio I recorded in January 2020 (before crap hit the fan and it hasn't slowed down since then...) but I wanted to share because I wanted to let people know it's okay to have ebbs and flows in life, for it to feel messy... but we have to offer that messiness up for our own sanctification and for that of others. Don't let the hard times of life be wasted.

The HEART of PERFECTION with Colleen Carroll Campbell! In the Summer of 2019 I did this interview with Colleen Carroll Campbell about her book; The Heart of Perfection - and I was SO NERVOUS that I legit didn't catch the first 10 min of audio. The interview is beautiful and is still so worth listening to.
Colleen Carroll Campbell is an award-winning author, print and broadcast journalist and former presidential speechwriter. Her books include her critically acclaimed journalistic study, The New Faithful; her spiritual memoir, My Sisters the Saints, which won two national awards and has been published in five languages; and her award-winning new release, The Heart of Perfection: How the Saints Taught Me to Trade My Dream of Perfect for God’s. A former speechwriter for President George W. Bush and editorial writer and op-ed columnist for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Colleen is the recipient of two honorary doctorates and numerous other awards and fellowships. She speaks to audiences worldwide and lives on the central coast of California with her husband and their four young children, whom she homeschools. Her website is www.colleen-campbell.com.
In The Heart of Perfection, Colleen Carroll Campbell explores the real lives of saints with the scrutiny of an investigative journalist and highlights their quest for the perfect love of God. … Like so many women (and men) today who are caught in the endless hamster wheel of trying to be perfect, Campbell spent her life striving for her ideal self, and surpassed her own goals. … In this deep and thoughtful reflection on herself, the generations of perfectionist women she came from, and with a broad-daylight exposé of the lives of the not-so perfect saints, Campbell realizes that setting the bar so high is detrimental; trying to be perfect only results in beating yourself up for not being perfect. The Heart of Perfection is a must-read for those of us whose pursuit of perfection is just creating the ‘perfect’ trap. - Jeannie Gaffigan

PURGATORY & DEATH! They're really not so scary. I would actually venture to say that for a Christian we should look FORWARD to our death, hope for life in Christ, be SO THANKFUL for purgatory because the reality is most of us will end up there and then always ALWAYS pray for our dead. Always. Legit never stop.

Evil and Demons and the Occult... OH MY! Dear Christians, we're not in Kansas anymore.
In this episode I get really real about the presence of demons and evil in my own life, my own past screwing around with the occult, and how real this enemy is.
We cover everything from the fall of 1/3 of the angels who ended up being cast out of heaven, how this spiritual attack is ignored within our big C Church and little c churches, and a little bit of what you can do about it!
If you have any questions or stories you want to share about your experiences with the diabolical, how you persevere throughout spiritual warfare, or something you want me to deep dive and help you understand... CALL THE HOLY HOT MESS HOTLINE (469)629-6323 or email me at holyhotmessmom@gmail.com.

SO, YOU'RE A HOMESCHOOLER NOW? I caused a bit of a stir when I slammed my fist and shouted "What the public schools are asking you to do right now is NOT SCHOOL and you don't have to do it!"... ok, so I didn't slam my fist but I did tick some people off.
How in the world are families that weren't already homeschooling expected to school, sometimes multiple children, continue to work full time from home, and not loose their ever loving minds??? Well, here are some tips and encouragement!

PANDEMIC SCHMANDEMIC So, I caused a bit of a stir with a COVID-19 pandemic related blog post: you can read that here: This is NOT Homeschooling and You Don't Have to Do It.
This has been the most Lent Lent ever, am I right? Let's give up Netflix and chocolate and God is all: oh, and mass, and parks, libraries, leaving your house.
It's all a crazy mess but we can't allow the world and the insanity that is happening in it to fog our view of life - which should always be through a lens of eternity.

FINDING FRIENDS & WHEN FRIENDSHIPS FIZZLE It's been on my heart for a while to speak about making friends as an adult. That ish is HARD. What happens when those friends we thought were going to be BFFLs fizzle out and you're no longer talking? It's heartbreaking and we can feel like "what's the point in all of that time on that friendship?" The root of it all is the trust that God is either using them or us or both to lead us to sainthood whether or not the friendship lasts 2 days or a lifetime.

IDOLS OF THIS WORLD {EPISODE 43}
Have you ever accused a Catholic of worshiping an idol? Or have you ever been accused of it? ahem Mary, the crucifix, statues of saints, holy water - the list goes on.
I get it, I totally get why people would think we were statue worshipers. I've actually been places where people are reaching over barricades to touch a statue of Mary - and idolatry is dangerous territory.
In this episode we're chatting about the whole worshiping of idols thing in the normal context but ALSO in the "are you worshiping anything other than God" complex.
Your job? Money? Perfect parenting? Side hustles? Fitness? Makeup? Clean home? Homeschooling?
News flash, we idolize a LOT of stuff that doesn't even begin to look like a pretty statue of St Mary in a cathedral. I don't care what denomination of anything you are - we ALL put things before God. And that, my friends, is idolatry.
The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem, right? So listen to this episode and ponder what is standing between you and a deeper relationship with God. What are you idolizing in the place for Him alone?

STEP BY STEP GUIDE TO DECLUTTERING TOYS {EPISODE 42} This is a part 2 from the episode about WHY you should declutter toys. I lay it out exactly HOW I tackle this big task. How to keep the trust with your kids when you're straight chucking 60% of their stuff (totally made up statistic).
We go over the books, the toys, puzzles, stuffed animals, and then how to store them for easy access but ALSO so that they can't rip everything out and destroy this newly cleaned and decluttered space.
I hope this reached you if you needed to hear it!

10 THINGS ABOUT THIS HOT MESS {EPISODE 41} In this episode, I'm laying it all out there. I've been a hot mess since well before having many tiny humans. 1. I have been married 3x 2. I have a deep, profound love for rap music with filthy words. 3. I have a recovering horribly potty mouth. 4. When I met my husband I thought he was a druggie. 5. I swore up and down my whole life I would never marry someone in the military. 6. I have absolutely no fashion sense. 7. I love love love to create things but honestly, finishing things is not up my alley. 8. I was in a sorority. 9. I attempted suicide. 10. I cannot play sports with balls to save my life.

ALL ABOUT DECLUTTERING TOYS {EPISODE 39}
This episode is a bit of my background on when I got to the point where I had to declutter all the toys. I can't give testamony to walking into a 13 year olds room and taking away all their stuff but I can tell ya about when I took 80% of my 3 year old's toys away and since then we now have 4 kids with very, very few toys... and they PLAY.
Here's the link to the 11x11 bins from Target I have the toys stored in in the kids bedroom.
Part 2 on exactly HOW to declutter the kids toys is in Episode 42! Stay tuned!

THAT TIME I HIT A HUMAN WITH MY CAR {EPISODE 38} Yeah, you read that title correctly. My husband was deployed, I decided to take in our 18 year old babysitter to live with us because she was having family issues and on the way back from picking her up, I hit a human in the dark of night with my mid-sized SUV.

OUR BODIES AS TEMPLES {EPISODE 37} You always hear the whole "your body is a temple" thing in regards to sexual purity, modesty, etc but in this episode we're diving into the legit theology of that. The fact that, if you are a baptized Christian, GOD lives within your being. And considering that before Jesus walked this earth the only place that could house the dwelling of God for people to have an intimate relationship was in the Jewish TEMPLE!
When you understand the Jewish roots of this phrase then you can understand why health, nutrition, modesty, purity, love, grace, acceptance have a LOT to do with our bodies and our relationship with God who dwells within us.

Here are some links to my favorite thangs happening these past months!

Meal delivery systems: So far we've tried Hello Fresh, Blue Apron and Home Chef! Also, not a meal delivery system but still a big help for meals and getting kids in the kitchen is Raddish Kids.

I had the most amazing pleasure of interviewing Kendra Tierney - the wife and mama behind Catholic All Year, a blog and digital shop .
She's a mom of 9 children (one on the way!) and the writer behind The Catholic All Year Compendium.
Here are some books she used as her initial references for bringing some liturgical living in the home.
The Year and Our Children: Catholic Family Celebrations for Every Season
Around the Year with the Von Trapp Family
How to begin incorporating the liturgical year into your home:
- Celebrate everyone's patron saint's day.
- Celebrate everyone's baptismal birthday.
- Then add in other ones from there!
You can catch up with Kendra on her Blog, Facebook as well as Instagram!

This whole episode is about simplifying holidays and birthdays.
Now, let me preface - some people find happiness in planning huge events.. I .. find stress. I THINK I'm having fun but really I'm just stressed!
Here are some stats I dropped in the episode:
Here's some stats from Market Watch:
About 26% of parents told BabyCenter.com that they spent more than $500 for their little one’s first birthday, and a poll by U.K. firm Vouchercloud found the average kid’s party runs about $400 - before presents. And it just snowballs from there. A survey by supermarket retailer Asda reported that the average British parent drops a whopping $28,000 on their kid’s birthdays through age 21 - enough to pay for a year at an out-of-state public university. It’s almost enough to buy a new car.
Another great stat from a Mom.me article"
According to a study performed by the National Retail Federation, Americans will be spending more money on gifts in 2018 than they did last year. Gallup reports that US adults estimate that they will spend approximately $885 on gifts this year, slightly lower than 2017's expectations. Below is an average of a range of findings:
- 33% expect to spend at least $1000 on gifts.
- 22% expect to spend between $500 and $999.
- 29% expect gift spending to be between $100 and $499.
- 3% plan to spend less than $100.
Welcome to another Holy Hot Mess Monday - this is a little gem of a lesson I learned the hard way that the orange Neutrogena face bar and Vicks Vapor Rub do NOT work well together. Or maybe they work too well together?
Anyways, enjoy!

Lent and Advent we wear purple, why? Because they're both seasons of preparation for the upcoming season. And with this special focus on preparation, what are you doing to kinda take a spiritual leap during this season? You know, spiritual growth just doesn't happen by chance - a relationship with God is.. well, relationship!
We've got to open up and let Him in.
In this episode I'm talking the theology and history behind lent and then also some practical things you can do to light a fire under your spiritual behind!

If you're anything like me then you're on the struggle bus with actually STICKING to a budget. Sure, I can spreadsheet it all up but as far as being able to track and stick to it and actually make the budget work for me, I've tried and failed a lot.
We found this awesome system a woman had a youtube video about. Basically it's a #10 envelope that you divide into 2 columns and 4 rows. You use this to hold all your receipts and keep running totals of your consumable budget (groceries, toiletries, etc) and your "other" budget, or "flex" budget.
Here is an example of my budget!
As a general rule we're trying to stick to $100/person in the family per month. This was kinda rough sauce towards the end of January so we actually bumped it to include $100/pet in the family budget. Now I'm working with $200 grocery budget per week + $100 in my "flex" or other. Anything we don't think should come out of grocery or "other" we consult each other and decide on as a couple if we want to buy it. This would be things like soccer registration for our oldest, ballet recital fees for #2, oil change, things like that!
It has been so helpful for transparency and accountability in spending for both of us. We're really enjoying this method! I hope it can help you out too!

Why did I ever think a FREE weekend vacation paid for by my husband's work would be a trip that wouldn't have some sort of a disaster that comes along with it?

I got to have the privilege to talk to this awesome christian chick, Diana. She's over on Instagram (here) and her website at DianaDivulges.com.
Diana Valette is a catholic convert who, until about 5 years ago was a non-believer who thought Christians were either a) dumb as rocks or b) lying about believing.
She talks about why it’s OK to have those types of thoughts where you question faith and God and what you can do with them.
She's really big on truth telling, showing the mess and meeting people exactly where they are and it is SO refreshing.
She loves red wine and Mexican food (and Cuban food and ALL the food). Say's she's a mediocre mom but she's clearly rocking the craziness that is mom life with 4 kids, their oldest is 8 and she has one on the way.
She's kinda a big deal - Scott Hahn once complimented her on her writing and she's actually hung out with Jenn Fullwiler before.
You can reach her at DianaDivulges on Instagram, or via her website DianaDivulges.com

Here's the wedding photographer rant I talk about in the beginning of the show.
Image Credit: Thomas Stewart Photography (view article here)
Do your kids find your phone and say "here's your phone mommy?"
Real eye opener - my kids probably think that my phone is a part of my being. And that brought some tears to my eyes.
How often do we do that??? We take all the pictures to post on social media but we aren't actually PRESENT in the moment!
Here's your big swift kick in the butt... grab your phone.
- Settings > Battery > Scroll down to see last 24 hours or last 7 days. It will show the activity base don% of battery usage, tap "show activity" and it will switch from the % to showing you in actual time during your day/week how much time you've spent in each app.
- Add up all the time you spend in your social media apps. Shocking, right? Even if you're good and only are on your phone an hour a day... in 7 days you've spent 7 hours. And in another 17 days you've spent an ENTIRE DAY on your phone in social media apps.
Think about the time you could be spent doing the things you say you don't have time for - bible, church, working out, reading to your kids, keeping the house clean. If you read to your kids one hour a day instead of being on social media with virtual friends in one year you would have spent 15 days reading to your kids! And over a course of their time in your home you would have spent a total of about 9 months worth of hours reading to your kids before they graduate and move out.
Now, if you put that in terms of social media if you ARENT spending that time intentionally then you're spending NINE MONTHS OF YOUR CHILDRENS LIVES on social media.
I am NOT condemning anyone... this is because I've got a problem with it. I'll admit it. It's not a shiny perfect person thing to say... but the first step to making a change is admitting you've got a problem.
Now, I've done this before. I get real good and intentional but then I get lonely, or bored, or tired and mindlessly scrolling becomes more and more of a habit - but these are the times we need a swift kick in the butt... so here we go!
Practical ways to cut back the phone time and simplifying your phone usage.
Settings that help
- Spend some time simplifying the social media and removing excess apps
- deleting people that you don't associate with anymore or don't even really know.
- Unroll. me - app/website
- Organzie your icons into folders - if you have to seek out an app to find it it will make you less likely to open it so often. It's some sort of psychology. Most of our scrolling and app usage is mindless, our thumb knows where that Instagram icon is... and it's a magnet!
- Turn off all of the notifications
- this one I'm a huge fan of. Think about it, we're in a world right now where the people who are the most important to us (in the moment or completely all the time) are pushed to the side because of a noise on our phone.
- With the notifications (noises, badges, banners) all turned off you won't be notified every time you get an email (which is probably spam) or a text (which might just be an emoji). I don't know about you but my ability to pick up the phone read the text and stop there went out the window a around the iPhone 3. I pick it up, check the meaningless text, then get on Instagram, Facebook , check my email, get lost on google. Then all of the sudden I've wasted 15 min of my life and told my kids to "hold on" 6 time.. because I'm mother of the year.
- Use Siri or Alexa more regularly - to ask questions instead of searching google or your calendar which then can spiral into a scroll fest.
- Keep it in silent
- Turn on grey scale in accessibility, display accommodations, filters.
- Do not disturb from 2 hours before bed to 2 hours after your normal wake time.
- Make a no phones in the bedroom, bathroom or kitchen rule.
- Get an ACTUAL alarm clock so you can charge your phone in another room.
- Carry a book or magazine with you
- Use a real to do list, or create your morning routine and vow to not pick up the phone until you're done with the routine or daily tasks.
- Set a reading goal.
- Pick up a hobby that is kinda mindless - coloring, knitting, crocheting, cross stitch (which I can never figure out how to do)
- Apps to help
- Download an app called "Checky" that will log how many times you pick up your phone. Set a goal to decrease by 5 every week until you're ok with how much you pick it up.
- Set goals for usage and check in regularly.
- Check in every night on how you've done. Download an app like "moment" - it tracks usage but also you can set time limits on each app.
Is this something you struggle with? I think in this age we all do, but its great to be able to step away and take a break from it all and be more present in the moment!
Let me know if you take a refreshing social media break!

1 Trello! It's a project/life management tool that is basically a virtual cork board, with lists, due dates, you can drag and drop, assign to other people, etc. It's amazing! Here's my referral link!
2 Sink full of water: I'm such a weirdo about my sink but I keep the left side plugged up and with clean/soapy water all day. This way I can keep a microfiber rag in there and wipe up any messes, sticky hands, anything through out the day. Think of it like a stationary cleaning bucket. If the water starts to get a big yucky, I just empty it and fill it back up with some clean stuff. I do NOT allow dishes in this soapy water because then the water would be gross! Some of my favorite essential oils to put in there are from Eden's garden. Honestly, I've got a lot so now I just go to what smells good and I have on hand but when I go to get another order, my favorite smell for my sink is the Cleaning Blend. It's all lemony and happy and clean smelling. A few drops of that plus some dawn dish soap and I can clean everything up in a jiffy.

Decluttering is my favorite non-Jesus-y thing to talk about, the Eucharist is my #1 favorite of all time but man, confession is a very, very close second! We're going to talk about all the things some people don't ask. The ideas we don't want to face and then the practical ways to open your beautiful gift God has given us!
Here we go!
Why do you confess sins to a priest? Why not go right to God?
Let's talk about the fall of sin.
Genesis says God tells Adam and eve if they eat of the fruit they would surely die. But, they didn't die. They ran and hid. So, was he talking about physical death?
The first breath of life breathed into man made him a SOUL exulted above all animals. We weren't just given natural life - we were given a natural and a spiritual divine life. So just as cancer can take of our natural life our mortal sin KILLS our supernatural life. The day they ate of it they committed mortal sin and they died in their divine life. When was the next time that Humans had the great rush of God's spirit given to all?? Pentecost... baptism!
Please, first thing - go right to God. Holy Spirit gives us direct access to God - repent of them immediately.
But were also called to go to the priest. The role of the priest all the way from the old testament to the new was as an intercessor between man and God.
Jesus is ULTIMATELY the one who make it possible for us to have access to God, therefore He is the ultimate and only mediator between humans and God BUT... we intercession on each others behalf constantly. God uses people as the MEDIATOR between him and them when they need it. Sin is a time of need.
In the old testament priests were given the roll as symbolic mediator between God and Man They would offer up sacrifices for the behalf of sins but it wasn't enough, an animals death wasn't enough for reparation of SINS... until Jesus' sacrifice that our sins were forgiven because the sacrifice was ACTUALLY worthy of the awful that is/was our sins.
Then... in the new testament priests serve a more similar role but with even more power.
John Ch 20 - Breathes on them, power of the holy spirit and gives them the POWER to forgive sins. It's powerful because not only is Jesus giving a whole new dimension to the priesthood that has been since the OT but he give the apostles the ABILITY to forgive sins. This reveals that Jesus' desire that priesthood to extend his true and complete full forgiveness to those who come in repentance.
James Ch 5 - Prayer of forgiveness is a role given to the priest.
"Confess your sins to each other" as in any other humans. James Ch 5, the priests were able to give a prayer and the forgiveness was given.
Priests don't have the POWER to forgive sins, jesus has given them the authority. Jesus uses THEM to shower is forgiveness. Jeuss is using the priest as his service.
Just like God will give you any gifts, you minister those by God's grace through you.
In sending his Son with our flesh, he shows he wants to encounter us through a direct contact that passes through the signs and language of our human condition.
So, ARE you actually going to God?
Jesus gives us a gift of reconciliation.
So, if you go straight to God... your sins are for given but have you been received back into the community? Maybe no, it's just between you and God? You've still created worldly damage as well as spiritual.
In baptism, I don't have to do anything and my sins are forgiven. It's beautiful!
But, let's be honest, it's harder to go to confession because we don't like having to admit our faults out loud.
The more we need confession the less we want to do it.
Confession is not a place for shame, defeat, ... it is a place of VICTORY!
Now let's walk through how you actually get yourself into the confessional!
First tip, sit face to face with the priest. It may be hard to do first time but give it a few tries and you'll feel a human contact aspect that the screen doesn't allow us.
Forgive me father for I have sinned - Have him walk through the confession with you
Act of contrition My God, I am sorry for my sins with all my heart. In choosing to do wrong and failing to do good, I have sinned against you whom I should love above all things. I firmly intend, with your help, to do penance, to sin no more, and to avoid whatever leads me to sin. Our Savior Jesus Christ suffered and died for us. In his name, my God, have mercy.
Penance The priest normally assigns us a penance (for example, prayer, fasting or other types of self-denial, sacrifices, almsgiving, spiritual or corporal works of mercy, or service of neighbor) as medicine to begin to repair the damage caused by sin, but this penance is light in comparison to the infinite harm our sins have done in bringing about Christ’s death. So we should voluntarily do penance to seek, with God’s help, to expiate our sins and repair that damage (CCC 1460)
Sins are forgiven but our souls still need to be healed.
What Is Required for it to be a good confession? Three things are required of a penitent in order to receive the sacrament worthily:
1) A person must be really, actually sorry for their sins. 2) One must confess those sins fully, in kind and in number. 3) One must be willing to do penance and make amends for his sins
Now, why does the church want to butt into your business with all this confessing stuff anyways? I mean, its 100% confidential. You COULD say it to God but we need that physical help to break down that spiritual and physical barrier.
We need this because the Church doesn't want us screwing ourselves over, spiritually.
I spoke about it in episode 14 on the Eucharist but if you try to make communion with God when you're not in the right state of accepting his Graces then you could be bringing judgement upon yourself. And the way the church makes sure you're in a state of grace is by confession.
Now, no one would ever know if you're in a state of Grace with God but GOD knows. And he's the only one who matters in this whole matter, right?
So, the church makes some tiny, measly (in the scheme of life) requirements for being a practicing member of the Church.
- Go to mass on all holy day's and Sundays. This is only like 56 days a year. 52 Sundays + Christmas, Easter, Assumption, All Saints Day. UNLESS you are dispensed from having to go because of illness, caring for someone else who is ill, etc. Basically the sin is when you could have gone but choose not to. Or forgot to because you're a hot mess.
- Receive communion once a year, preferably during Lent. (again, listen to episode 014 for why you want/need the Eucharist so... much... more frequently than just once a year!)
- Go to confession once a year, preferably during Lent. Now, 2 and 3 go hand in hand. You'll probably need to go to confession before you receive communion the 1x a year because we're ALL bound to sin within 365, am I right? No matter how hard you try, it's gonna happen.
That's it... but it's the going above and beyond. The making of the effort in your relationship with God that really will deepen the relationship...
So, there are special gifts God gives everyone but some surefire way to open yourself up to the reception of the gifts is by partaking in communion and confession regularly. They're great for your soul, all the earthly ways that therapy and friendly and physical communion are BUT they give you the special graces by God to help you combat those sinful things you confessed.

This is a real simple, practical one that you might be like, "duh, Heather - I've been keeping my house clean and perfect forever. You seriously couldn't do it?".. uh, NOPE. I was broken and in survival mode for the first 3.5 years of motherhood - but ya'll, I'm not here to preach this shiny perfect mom thing to you I'm just here to tell you that you don't have to LIVE in survival mode. You can love the heck out of your kids, have hobbies, and somehow manage to stay on top of the house while also taking care of yourself and getting sleep. It's possible!
In a nutshell these tips are:
- Declutter : if you spend ALL your time picking up objects and shuffling them around your house you will never, ever be able to actually get to cleaning said house. But once you rid the clutter - you suddenly free up so much time that you're able to gasp do one load of laundry a day, or double gasp clean the toilets! It's possible! If you need a jumpstart to your decluttering you can head over to my 14 day #DeclutterAllTheThings challenge on my blog!
www.holyhotmessmom.com/declutter
-
"Go Home" basket central to the house : this is just a simple, sturdy, decently big-ish basket I keep in a central location in the house. It allows me to not run around shuffling our necessary clutter that makes its way into my living areas, I just throw all these things in that basket and either at the end of the day or when the basket is full I spend a solid 5 min running and putting those things away, one room at a time. It's such a time saver.
-
Sink full of water: I'm such a weirdo about my sink but I keep the left side plugged up and with clean/soapy water all day. This way I can keep a microfiber rag in there and wipe up any messes, sticky hands, anything through out the day. Think of it like a stationary cleaning bucket. If the water starts to get a big yucky, I just empty it and fill it back up with some clean stuff. I do NOT allow dishes in this soapy water because then the water would be gross! Some of my favorite essential oils to put in there are from Eden's garden. Honestly, I've got a lot so now I just go to what smells good and I have on hand but when I go to get another order, my favorite smell for my sink is the Cleaning Blend. It's all lemony and happy and clean smelling. A few drops of that plus some dawn dish soap and I can clean everything up in a jiffy.
-
Keep cleaning items where you need them. It doesn't need to be elaborate but if you keep common things where you need them its so much easier to grab them and clean it when you see it.
- Bathroom - toilet brush, toilet bowl cleaner, bleach, cleaning wipes, reusable window/glass rag, foam glass cleaner, and my handy-dandy wand filled with 1/2 dish soap and 1/2 vinegar.
-
Kitchen - microfiber rags, glass cook top cleaner, sponge, dish soap, cleaning wipes, electronics cleaner, reusable window/glass rag, foam glass cleaner.
-
Tag some cleaning to bits of your day
-
After going to the bathroom first thing in the AM, check the toilet. If it's gross, give it a squirt of cleaner and swish the bowl brush around. Let that sit while you go brush your teeth and wash your face. After doing your morning hygiene stuff, grab that dish wand and spot clean the sink/counter area. Let it sit for a moment while you head back to the toilet and spot clean with some disposable wipes (I use Clorox, I'm all about the natural life except when it comes to the toilet, no thanks. Give me the industrial toxic cleaning stuff!). Done with the toilet, head back to the sink and use the rag you used to wash your face to wipe up the soapy-ness and then throw that rag right into your laundry for the day.
-
Always make your bed right after getting dressed. Then exit the bedroom and start the wash with your bathroom rag, and dirty PJs from the night before.
-
Washing/putting away dishes after every meal, wiping counters after every meal.
(More examples in the episode!)
- One load of laundry a day: Some people save laundry for 1 day of the week. I used to be one of those people but I realized that doing so meant that laundry consumed my entire day. I could get nothing else done. On a Sunday, that is the LAST thing I want to be doing is 8 loads of laundry so about 2 years ago we started doing (about) 1 load a day. I commit to washing, drying and folding it as well as putting it away before I head to bed.
That's it - bathrooms, kitchen, laundry and floors. Easy peasy and your house looks clean and put together most of the time and when it's not, it will only take minutes to whip it back into shape.

In this episode we're tackling the topic of morning & evening routines. Why you need them, how you'll benefit, what makes them work and HOW to go about making your routines in your day to day life.
Why they're so needed - Less decision fatigue - Less scrambling - Less forgetting stuff - Less waking up to a to do list
What really makes them work - Tagging them to things in your day (like brushing your teeth, getting dressed, finishing a meal) - keeping to one room at a time
How to go about making them - List what you NEED to have done before you leave the house every morning (diaper bag, gym bag, getting dressed, etc) - List what you DON'T want to wake up to (dirty dishes, a dirty floor, stuff all over the counters, laundry to fold, clothes to pick out, etc)
Figure out how those things fit into your already existing routine - Tag them to items in the same room (do all the days dishes and wipe counters while you're waiting on dinner to finish cooking), make your bed right after you get dressed every day. This helps you to not run around so much - Tag them to things that always happen (brushing teeth and then swiping the toilet clean), putting dinner away then wiping the table, vacuuming while hubby gives kids a bath. -Figure out the nightly routine first because that's the most important. - Work back wards logically. For us, we want to be checked out by 7 PM so we work backwards to make that our goal. It means hustling from 5-7pm but once 7 hits we have no household responsibilities!
Try to implement one-2 extra things a week or every 2 weeks until you've got a solid routine.

Welcome to another "Holy Hot Mess Monday" - if you're an Instagram friend you might have caught wind of a bit of this story back in August 2018 when I found out my minivan was a registered stolen vehicle in Canada. It was a mess, I hope you enjoy laughing at my expense (I sure do now that it's all resolved!)

In this episode we're chatting about all things time management as a wife and mom and homemaker.
You can download the blank time blocking sheet at www.holyhotmessmom.com/timeblock
Basically, you're going to take this blank sundy-saturday spreadsheet with the hours of 6am to 10pm marked down. You're going to start with your essentials. For us I always put in meal times, nap times, wake times, and the normal mass time we usually go to.
Next put in your weekly expectations that have a legit standard time. For us that is our homeschool co op from 830am-1230pm on Thursdays. It takes us about 30 minutes to get to the co op before and after so I add in that travel time as well.
Next i'll add in the things that should be done each day but that could flex if I needed them to. Monday, Tues, Wed, and Friday is homeschooling LJ while the other kids nap in the afternoon. But also, Crossfit at noon monday, tues, wed, friday and 10am on saturday. I also put in 30 min travel time before and after so I'm aware.
That is what my week looks like right now. This I like to color code and print out. I use a happy planner so I can print it out on cardstock and use the happy planner hole punches to put it right in the front of my planner. When I'm scheduling doctors visits, etc I can glance at my white space on the planner and know when would be the most ideal time to schedule something. This is also wonderful for when you're looking to schedule a play date, or add a new activity to your schedule or, if you need to say "no" to something. SAYING NO IS OK!!
I've added this time blocking guide to my blog so you can download it, or open it in google documents, save as a copy so you can modify it and create your own weekly time block. You can head over to holyhotmessmom.com/timeblock to get the time blocking sheet and workbook.
When you create this visual you can see the days of the week that you are super busy and you need to make sure you've got either a fast meal or a crock pot meal for that day. You can see when the laundry needs to be fit in, or maybe even days that are too crazy and you need to back some things off of the schedule.
It's a great tool to have and one that you can even plan to reevaluate every month or so. right now, I've got babies who have ever changing nap schedules so we're updating our time block pretty frequently. I have a time block sheet that actually has the schedules for all of us - me, the two oldest kids, the twins, and my husband. It helps me know when I can realistically prep dinner during each day, the days that maybe need to be prepped ahead of time, things like that.

In this edition of "why do all of my stories have to do with human waste and why is it always ME having to deal with it" we're getting raw with a story I recorded within hours of it happening.
I was definitely still salty about it.
Also, my husband AND cat made an appearance and it was just adding to the hot mess so I didn't even edit it out.
Enjoy!

In this episode we're chatting about how sometimes it's hard to feel like God is there. And if He is there, maybe he's not there for US. We've all been in that spiritual drought right?
Faith when we're younger and talking to God is just "please do this and please do that" really doesn't cut it when you're a grown up. You need a relationship - after all, that's the whole point of salvation. A relationship with God. But how can you have a relationship if you don't even know how to communicate??
Prayer is so much more than reciting familiar prayers from mass, it's TWO way communication and it's something that has to be practiced all the time. Just like you'll loose touch with a friend if you don't put effort into checking in, the same goes for God!
I dive into some simple, easy, heart opening prayer steps taken from St. Ignatius of Loyola's method of spirituality.

On my blog/ministry I help moms (really just women in general) declutter in a non-overwhelming, sanity-taking-back way.
After seeing a few posts in a Catholic Mama’s FB Group about needing to clear clutter. I thought, what better time than now to post my general tips, tricks, rules and guidelines to get your decluttering butt in gear.
1) Make sure you know what you're going to do with the stuff you discard. Where exactly are you donating to? Make sure trash and donation items go OUT of the house immediately after your purge. The longer they sit in bags or boxes in the house, the longer time you give it to creep back into your clean home.
2) Go into each room with 4 bins/buckets/boxes/bags - one for recycling, one for trash, and one for donations and one for stuff that doesn't belong in that room but needs to stay in your house just in its proper place. For the women who have a room full of stuff I suggest taking it ALL out to the driveway to sort - that way you’re only bringing back in your house the things that are essential!
3) Fight the urge to clean the room you are in during your declutter time. You are here to declutter, not deep clean. I repeat, YOU ARE HERE TO DECLUTTER NOT TO CLEAN. Once your whole house is decluttered, you'll have so much time to clean all the things because you won't be spending your precious time putting away all the things.
4) Only work on one room/space at a time. And don't leave that room until it's done. It is so easy to go from room to room putting clutter away that when the day is over, you've 1/2 done all the rooms and the whole house looks a mess. This is why that laundry basket helps! I suggest that any items that aren't being trashed, donated, or recycled and need to be put back in their proper homes go into a little bag or basket by the door of the room you are currently in. Once you're finished with decluttering that room, go put all the misplaced things back to their homes. Spend your entire set aside time decluttering that one room, not getting distracted by tons of other things needing to be put away.
5) Have FUN.. Put on some music and JAM girl. Everyone will know you're occupied and its great for the soul! Plus, getting rid of clutter is so freaking therapeutic I can't even explain it how awesome the feeling is. Do this on a weekend or day where you can do this alone, with minimal interruption.
⭐️⭐️ Now, once you're into the actual room you are going to declutter with your 4 containers ⭐️⭐️
Define what this room IS and IS NOT.
I want to define some things that I don't consider part of different rooms for the sake of this post (which is also an upcoming Podcast Episode!).
🛀🏻Bathrooms are for hygiene, baths, potty, and cleaning the bathroom - Not a storage area for anything but that
🛌Bedroom is for sleeping and snuggly time, we like to code word this mommy daddy time as "butter" haha. Maybe TMI, sorry to this mom, inlaws or sister if y’all see this 😂😂😳. And for prayer 🙏🏻. It's not a room we watch tv in, or fold laundry in, for example.
OF COURSE things will float into these rooms but this process of defining the purpose of each room is so that you establish your ground zero for each room, the state it should be back in pretty much every night before bed.
Secondly, you’re going to define what this room IS:
🚽The bathroom is made for showering/bathing, doing your business, and hygiene in the morning and evening. The only things that should be in this room are things you use in this room and only in this room.
The 🛋 living room for us) is for TV 📺 and some baby toys. Big kid toys float in there but they get put away every night.
Now you get to set some space boundaries - choose a space for certain items. Once that space is filled with those items you know you have too much and need to purge again.
Examples --Bookcases 📚- where all books belong, if they don't fit on the book case, you need to purge. --Pantry - if food is not fitting in the pantry, or fridge, it's time to go through it. —Kid's Toys - Define specific spaces, shelves, containers for each set of toys. An example we have is Barbies. We have a 11x11 plastic target container. Once barbies start overflowing out of that then we know it’s time to get rid of some. I go into more about purging kids toys and getting them involved in the upcoming podcast episode!
Now, you've done all the defining so you're actually going to start the great mama purge of 2019!
When you pull something out first ask — Is this trash? Expired? If so, toss it in the trash bag (or recycle) — Is this necessary? Do we need this item or could something we already own do the job? If so, donate. — Is this a duplicate? You don’t need 6 different wide flat hair brushes. Why do we have 6? I don’t know. Toss all but the ones you absolutely need. (Or donate if it’s not something like a hair brush).
Now some psychology about how the LESS will help create less clean up time... not having excess for stuff used regularly.
Example towels or clothes OR dishes.
-
Having more than 1-2 towels per person means you'll grab a clean towel before you wash your towel. which will just lead to TONS of towels needing to be washed and you putting it off. Which leads to BAM one huge day of laundry where you feel like a slave to the towels!
-
Having more than 1-2 dishes per person in the family will contribute to the same issues. Which is easier in the short term? Washing the dish in the sink or grabbing a clean one out of the cabient? Clearly, grabbing the clean one. Estimate a day of those habits - for my family of 6 that would mean by dinner time I will have 18 plates, cups, silverware, plus all the stuff I used to prepare the meals. When we went down to 1 plate per person - it made me clean up completely after each meal. Done and ready to go for the next. It's been a lifesaver.
---Note, we are not shiny fancy people. When we have guests over I just paper plate it up. No shame in my mom game. It allows me to enjoy the company and the meal and not worry about all the lingering mess!
This kinda"one of everything" mindset really helps during meal prep too - if you don't have 1800 mixing bowls to keep grabbing, you just quickly wash a mixing bowl before the next stuff you're putting in it. The dishes can't pile up in the sink and cleanup is super fast when you're actually all done cooking or baking.
Another question you need to ask before you're done with an item is --- Does this item, or group of items live here?
If yes, put it where it should be in this room ASAP. If they DO belong in your house but just not in the current room you are in, you’re going to put that in your “I'm going to put all this stuff away once I'm done with this room" basket.
You've really got to think about each item logically - ask yourself, “if I were looking for this, what is the FIRST place I would look?”
THAT’s probably where that item should live. If that is NOT in the room you're currently in, put it in the laundry basket for being put away later.
When putting things back and doing your initial big purge do your best to keep flat surfaces clear. By flat surfaces I mean kitchen counters, bath counters, edges of bath tub, toilet tanks, tops of cabinets, stove tops, mantels, etc. Not only does it look so.. stinking' pretty 🙌🏻🙌🏻 but it is easier to wipe clean on a regular basis because you don't have to move anything out of the way.
The biggest bonus I've found is that with flat, clear surfaces - when they do gather some sort of clutter that doesn't belong there because that area should be clear, it really looks out of place. Mentally it will bug you until its put away! Won't take long before you are keeping all those flat surfaces consistently clear. Its heaven, ya'll - believe me!
When you're done with your purge. Get the stuff out of your house IMMEDIATELY. If you don’t it WILL wander back in your house. Trash goes to the outside can, same with recycle, donations go to the trunk of the car immediately and then you put your “lives in my house but not in this room” basket items away.
Fight the other overwhelming urge, to sell your stuff. Its time consuming, never makes much money AND you can get more from the tax deduction for straight donations to 503(c) charities! My rule is that if it's probably not going to legit get me over $100 then it's not worth the time to sell it somewhere. Craigslist is sketchy, I've gotten stood up way too much on FB marketplace AND holding onto everything for a yardsale that really won't make much money is a pain in the behind (not to mention you’ve got to then hold on to all of your clutter!)
Find an accountability buddy, post on social media before and after pictures, be proud of your decluttering! Because you're taking back your sanity!

If you grew up in the faith but never really understood most of it – this episode is for you. If you went to mass because thats what your family did, got first Holy Communion because your mom put you in Sunday school (CF/CCD) classes, and even got confirmed to “graduate” from those CF/CCD classes (like me!!) then this episode is definitely for you!
In this episode I’m going to be diving into some basic info on the Eucharist – the Catholic form of communion. What we believe, why we believe it, what makes it so special, and some other questions that come along with all of the above!
WHAT CATHOLIC’S BELIEVE ABOUT THE EUCHARIST Catholics believe that bread and wine is actually transformed into the physical body and blood of Jesus. His body, blood, soul and divinity.
No, we’re not killing Jesus all over again. That was a one-and-done deal. It was all foreshadowed in the Old Testament with the Passover.
WHY WE BELIEVE THE EUCHARIST IS THE TRUE PRESENCE OF CHRIST Well, because the Old Testament foreshadowed it and Jesus himself told us it was!
See Exodus 12
Now, back to Jesus.Understanding Catholic Eucharist and Communion
See also Yeshua and the Passover Instructions
Even more evidence is in Luke chapter 24 – when no one recognized Jesus fully after his resurrection until they broke bread that he had blessed and ATE it.
OK, SO HOW DO WE KNOW ALL OF THIS IS FOR REAL? Because Jesus told us himself! Check out John chapter 6! All of it, soak it in and love on it!
Now He meant this both literally and figuratively. Figuratively because He is the filler for all of our voids and shortcomings but literally… well, he explains the whole eating him part next.
In John chapter 6 is where Jesus tells us literally what he means by being the bread of life.
Sounds pretty darn clear to me what He was saying and what he meant with his words!
SO, THIS IS WHAT MAKES CATHOLIC EUCHARIST AND COMMUNION SO SPECIAL! This is why people go to adoration.
This is why women cover their heads with veils or other head coverings in the presence of Christ.
This is why we kneel during the consecration times of the mass (when the priest is calling on Jesus to transform that measly bread and wine into JESUS!).
This is why we genuflect (literal meaning: bend at the knee) when we enter the sanctuary and when we pass by the tabernacle.
This is why we say “Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.” Matthew 8:8
This is also why people who have not yet received their First Holy Communion in the Catholic Church should not receive the Eucharist. The episode has the 3 reasons why people who haven’t had their first holy communion yet shouldn’t receive.
And finally this is why it is extremely important for those of us receiving the sacrament to be free of all mortal sins. The big ones – because the big ones separate us from the grace of God by us putting up a wall, ourselves between us and God.
STILL DON’T BELIEVE ME? CHECK OUT SOME EUCHARISTIC MIRACLES!
Eucharistic miracles are when the body and blood of Christ in the eucharist, which is under the form of bread and wine actually bleeds, has actually been scientifically proven to have human flesh cells. And not just any human flesh cells – cardiac (heart) cells. And those cells have been proven to have been under extreme levels of stress found in hormone remnants in the cells.
How a Eucharistic Miracle is approved by the church – Aleteia
List of Approved Eucharistic Miracles – The Real Presence

Picking a word for the year can be great, so can making goals. But I have a really interesting idea for you, something I did in 2018.
What if... you made an anti-resolution... to take absolutely nothing new on.
These things you're saying no to are not BAD they're just not for you right now. And that's ok!
In the upcoming episode 22 (not 19! the schedule changed!) we'll be chatting about how to practically tackle your time management as a mom/woman. You can check out what I've got on the blog about Time Blocking before the episode airs!

Thursday, I decided it would be a great idea to check out the new (to me) YMCA. Crossfit, childcare, barre, a pool? Yasss. Well after our tour this one threw tantrums because we weren’t going swimming right 👏🏻that👏🏻minute. “If you’re good today we’ll go tomorrow”. Pool has a mini splash pad.. indoor. It’s awesome. Fast forward to yesterday. I run into Lowe’s (again 😭😭) and grab random crap we need. Mom sat with the kids in the van while I ran in. Afterwards we went to the YMCA to swim. I’m stoked to put the babies in childwatch, give my mom some alone time and take the bigs swimming. Of course I packed swim suits for everyone BUT me when we left NY, so I borrowed my mom's. Childcare at the Y is from 8-8pm except fridays... freaking Friday’s it ends at 3. What time did I get there?? 3:05... naturally. Audible, mom will sit at side of pool and watch the babies while I swim with the bigs. I have everyone go potty, change, head into the pool. We’re having a GOOD time. My back is feeling great, we were the only ones there. It was awesome. We bounced around between the family lap area, family area, and shallow kids/splash pad. At one point I’m in the family open pool area and E is in the splash pad. She starts doing this weird walk/dance/shimmy/chacha looking thing. She looked like she had seen freaking big foot - terror across her little face. Me: “Oh.. oh no!! Mom!! I think she’s pooping!!!!”, y’all she’s been potty trained for 8 months... As I run/scramble (aka run in place because I’m in 3 ft of water 😭🤪) to get to her I see a HUGE wad in her swim suit. She’s got her legs super wide and she’s now side shimmying/waddling like a crab and hysterically, ridiculously loudly (in an echoing public pool room) and embarrassingly crying. Me: “ahhh she pooped!!!" I scoop her up and sprint to the family restroom. I attempt to slowly peel off her pool water/poop soaked swimsuit. I get 1 leg out with minimal mess. (yesss winnnn!) and as I am trying to get her to pull her other leg out she wiggles and the whole squish wad of yuck flops onto that STUPID CARPET THEY HAVE IN THE BATHROOM?!!

On this episode we're chatting to anyone who has ever felt like the Catholic Church is just REALLY missing out on something because it might not give you that feeling that a praise band, exciting pastor, and flourishing ministry filled church might.
This took me a LONG while to come to realize about the Church and why she is so set in her ways. I mean, come on - times change... right??
I talk a bit about my faith background and journey and I hope it touches someones heart in the right spot.
I can't tell you how many people I know have left the Church for another denomination or community.
I get it. The Church and some parishes can seem (I'm using jazz hands) like this unwelcoming, judgmental, rigid, controversy ridden, non frilly place.
I get why people would want to encounter Jesus in a music filled, arms raised, vibrant pastor giving these amazingly touching and encouraging preaching. You feel something when you go to these services that you didn't think you felt when you went to mass.
So, I'm going to give you a run down on WHY you should be coming back into God's church. Basically Catholic 101. Here we go:
1: The whole purpose of salvation is for God to make us his family.
2: In order to enter into a covenant bond there has to be an agreement.
3: Jesus becomes that ultimate sacrifice to God, from God, for us, back to him to create that bridge between us and God and to eternally make us family.
4: We screw up this bond, still, constantly.
5 You've got to understand what Catholics believe about communion. 2 Things - 1 that it ACTUALLY is the body and blood of Jesus and 2 to take communion in the Catholic Church means that you are IN communion - in agreement with everything the church teaches. This is a hard one for most people (me included!).
6 Because of what we believe about the Eucharist and communion - your sins need to be forgiven before you partake.
7 Jesus himself created the church.
8 Jesus himself gave power to someone to act in his person until he returns.
9 That power he gave Peter and the disciples to shepherd and forgive sin was real.
10 The reason why you belong to the Catholic (by the way, catholic means "universal" in Greek) church is because God wants you to be in his heavenly family for EVER.
So, I've got some great books for you to read if you're interested in learning more about why you've gotta get your booty to mass.
I'm a firm believer that we've got to re-catechize ourselves. Learn more about our faith because that makes it real, tangible, and that makes us want to go running towards the church instead of from it.
My first recommendation is
"A Biblical Walk Through the Mass" by Dr. Edward Sri
"Reasons to Believe" by Dr Scott Hahn
"A Father who keeps his promises" by Dr Scott Hahn
and "The Lambs Supper: The Mass as Heaven on Earth"
Honestly, this video (below) popped up in my Facebook feed a couple of years ago and this is what turned me on to Dr Hahn's writing and speeches. He's an amazing speaker, a former protestant minister and now Catholic theology professor and author. He's got some good, easy reading but great factual theology for anyone wanting to understand the Church, Jesus, and their teachings.

Today we're chatting all about how we can set the tone for a home full of joy!
We're not always going to have a HAPPY day. That's a given but at the end of every day we can be filled with joy for our home and our blessings and the gift of salvation, right?
So, how do we - as homemakers, achieve that?
I've put some tips together for you to be able to up the joy level in your home, so lets jump right in.
Tip #1: Create family spaces that are uncluttered and joy filled.
Tip #2: Place Jesus reminders in each room.
Tip #3: Clear the calendar. Start with a time block
Tip #5: Create some solid morning and evening routines.
Tip 6: DELEGATE and teach!
Tip 7: Light some candles, diffuse some happy scents, get some decor that makes you happy!
Tip 8: Listen to some good, uplifting music.
Tip 9: Figure out your resets if you've had a crappy start to your day. I'll do a whole other episode about how to turn around a really crappy day! For us we normally turn on some fun music, go play outside together, bake something or snuggle and read books.
I've got a free download for time blocking on my website and I've also got a great e-workbook for planning your new year to be a joy filled one. You can head over to www.holyhotmessmom.com/timeblockto get that free download or www.holyhotmessmom.com/homefilledwithjoyto get the whole e-workbook!

Welcome to the first bonus episode!
To day we're talking about what we're celebrating today at church...January 6th, 2019
Catholics always say "keep the tree up until Epiphany", but why?? Well, I didn't know so I went searching for an answer and here it is!
The Epiphany is the Manifestation of Christ to the gentiles. (Matthew 2:1-12)
(Gentile is a non Jewish person.)
Here are some awesome talks/audio/explanations on what the Epiphany is and all the things you need to know!
St. Paul Center Reflection by Dr Scott Hahn
Another St. Paul Center Reflection by Dr. Scott Hahn
A Great Podcast Episode "The Sacred Page" podcast with Dr Brant Pitre (one of my other favorite modern theologians!)
According to CCC 528 - when Jesus is presented as not only as the sun and messiah of Jewish Israel but that he is the Son of God and savior of the WHOLE WORLD.
Joy to the World: How Christ's birth changed everything and still does by Dr Scott Hahn.

WHEN THERE ISN'T ENOUGH TIME IN THE DAY {EPISODE 8} I catch myself trying to do all the things a LOT and it's taking me getting a super full plate and spilling the beans in EVERY aspect of life for me to realize what God is really just trying to beat me over the head to tell me...
“You are not called to do all the things… you are called to do the things you have prayed about and know I called you to do”.
For me...

Live my faith and spread Jesus’s love and hope to others.
-
Be a faithful, loving wife and mother.
-
Be a homemaker.
That is all.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed with life. If you flop into your bed at night just completely burnt out (like I’ve let myself often, way too often) then you need to step back and really remember what your priorities are. All of ours are different.
NOT that we want to do. What HEhas called us to.
If you’re feeling like you don’t have enough hours in the day or like you’re failing at your normal, everyday tasks… then it’s highly likely you’re trying to get things done that God is saying “that’s not supposed to be taking up your time.”
What are some things you’re feeling like you’ve put on your plate that shouldn’t be there?
Glorify God, try to rock being a wife, mom, and homemaker… that is ALL YALLLLLLL! ????.
Tell me your roles you’re supposed to make time for and some crap you gotta put aside so you can rock the roles you’re CALLED to fill. Comment below,
Now, the practical part - when you feel like you've got no time for anything to get done, you gotta reevaluate your schedule and your life.
In Episode 19 I am going to talk about how exactly you can schedule and work this joy into your life and give you tools to be able to time block and take a birds eye view of your schedule.
I really challenge you to sit down and write that personal priority list from last episode. I've created a free workbookto help ya do just that. It's a great reminder to keep yourself aligned in your priorities. And it comes with a super cute free printable too!

I've talked before on my blog about making a life priorities list or a family mission statement and this is a handy dandy thing we ALL need in our lives. What better time to set our goals and missions than in the New Year? (Or really, whenever. Every day can be your "New Year" if you choose to start something new! Go for it!)
Once you define the things that are truly the most important to you, you can use that to measure all new decisions against. All of them. It cuts the decision fatigue in a big way. It's a measuring stick for life decisions and it can be a huge sanity saver! Not to mention it will keep you on track for goals and ... just life in general!
In this episode we're going to walk through defining your life priorities. To help you out, I created a free printable you can grab here.
My defined priorities are #1 God and my relationship with Him, #2 My Husband and my relationship with him, #3 My kids and loving and raising them in a Catholic home (this includes homeschooling for me), #4 Health (modeling a healthy active lifestyle for my kids as well as taking care of myself so I can better serve God's needs), #5 Finances, and #6 the Ministry of HolyHotMessMom.com
I really challenge you to sit down and write that personal priority list as well as a family priority list. I've created a free workbook to help ya do just that. It's a great reminder to keep yourself aligned in your priorities. And it comes with a super cute free printable too!

This episode is just me, talking to myself (and you!) to give you some encouragement and motivation for when the mom days can be hard.
Those days when you feel like there is no way you can keep handling whatever you're handling. Like you don't know what to do, how to react... I hope this episode can find even just one mama in the trenches, struggling today and will encourage her that she is equipped, within herself, to be the amazing mama to these kids because she was made for this.
A few times I miss spoke.
I said when YOU were formed in YOUR womb. I meant "when YOU were formed in your mom's womb", I know how babies are made. But sleep deprivation and recording podcasts at the YMCA are a b****.
Secondly, I said "that doesn't mean you should confess and admit your shortcomings" I meant "that doesn't mean you SHOULDN'T confess..." I'm a hot mess, I'm aware!
I hope this reached you if you needed to hear it!

In this episode we're chatting about meal planning. Some things that have worked for our family and some tools that might be able to help you save time, money, sanity, reduce your decision fatigue and never get caught with the 4p, "oh crap what am I going to make for dinner" bug.
We chat about what has worked for us regarding breakfast lunch and dinners but most importantly, a tool I stumbled upon 2.5 years ago that has helped me so much in the kitchen and meal planning aspect of my homemaking!
Plan to Eat, a meal planning website! $39/year ($3.25/month) **50% off sale November 26-Dec 2nd, 2018 (I think they do this sale every week after Black Friday, FYI) which makes it only $19/year (1.60 a month)
Simple Menu Planning
Keep it simple - follow a themed template each week.
For example, we use this as a genreral plan for our week: Mondays - Italian, Tuesdays - Mexican, Wednesdays Leftovers, Thursdays Crock Pot Meal, Friday's Leftovers, Saturdays Homemade Pizza & Movie Night, Sunday - Meal Prep and Grilling.
Plan to Eat does all of the dirty work behind meal planning, recipe storage and creating shopping lists.
Recipe Mode
Input recipes either by link or you can manually add your own. This means you can go to Pinterest, get the link on a blog or website, and import it right away - pictures and all into a recipe card in your account. It saves forever.
Menu Planning Mode Drag and drop your recipes into a monthly or weekly planning calendar. Plan notes like leftovers or go out to eat or date night. Print and keep handy in your planner or on the fridge.
Shopping Mode Click over to the shopping list and this website will auto populate your shopping list and separate everything by store category. You can even add "staples" to your list like toilet paper, diapers, formula, shampoo and it will show up every time you create a shopping list. You can go one step further and designate which stores you buy certain items from. For us, all meat generally comes from Sam's Club - so when I click "shop" my grocery list will come up as a Normal Store (Walmart, Kroger, etc) and Sam's Club. I then either walk around with my lap top or print the pages out and walk around the kitchen marking off everything we already have. Shop list says I need 16 chicken breasts but I already have 8 in the freezer, so I just mark that down to only needing 8. Spices, condiments, etc. Then I just print the list out and give it to the hubby to go get OR order everything online and pick it up.
Seriously a lifesaver.
You can copy entire months worth of recipes. Or a week. You can schedule everything from dinners to lunches, breakfasts and snacks.
I will say, there is a little learning curve - mostly because websites, blogs and recipes will not always have their ingredients typed the same way. If you put boneless chicken breast in one recipe and chicken breast in another they'll show up under "meats" on your shopping list as 2 different items. There is an easy fix, you can alter whichever one you don't like and the software will prompt you to see if you want to make the change in your shopping list AND your every recipe this item is in.

If you've hung around my instagram for any length of time you'll know that I am very much a magnet for ridiculous things happening to me.
Funny now, not so funny when I was in the situation but, if we can't laugh -we'll cry.. am I right?
This story is about a whirl wind, poop filled, last minute trip to my parents with a 3 year old, 9 month old, 75 lb German shepherd, sassy cat, midsized SUV, a surprize blizard and just a huge mess of a trip.
Hope you enjoy and can laugh along with me!
Also, when they say to don't abruptly change up a dog's food.. they mean it.

We're talking a little faith-y on the podcast today.
Have you ever felt like God, who should be all knowing and all awesome and good, lets just awful things happen. And why, if He is so awesome, does he let awful things happen? Why is He punishing us?
Here is the link to the Ascension Presents Chosen Confirmation Video on Suffering I reference in the podcast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMCPW53-cGw
Got a little truth bomb, even though it may feel like it... God does not let bad things happen - bad things happen as a result of God giving us free will.
He had to give us free will in order to get us to love him fully. We can't truly love out of being forced. Love has to be out of complete, free choice.
He gave us free will and unfortunately, that means some people will make bad choices.
God isn't punishing us, all things bad that happen are a result of someones free will choices.
