****TOP 2.5% GLOBALLY-RANKED PODCAST**** Are you waking up exhausted and overwhelmed before the day even begins? Is your mind as disorganized as your house? Is the stress of the clutter, debt, and what to make for dinner…again, wreaking havoc on your health, parenting and marriage? Do you wish you had one authentic Catholic friend who understood your struggles? I am so excited you’re here! This podcast will teach you how to create a clutter-free, organized home that practically runs itself, with dinner on the table every night, enough money to stop living paycheck to paycheck and God at the center of it all! Hi, I’m Gina. A Catholic wife, mom and declutter coach. For twenty years, I made sure my home was organized and running efficiently; we ate healthy, homemade dinners, the laundry was done, and the bills were paid on time, yet, I still felt like something was missing. I thought if my home looked like it belonged in a magazine, my family dined on gourmet meals and I stayed out of debt, life would be peaceful and perfect. I finally realized that I was searching for fulfillment and validation from the outside world. Yes, I needed my home to run efficiently, but I felt a nagging in my heart that I was made for more. If I was going to have a full life with the peace that transcends human understanding, I needed to make God the center. I needed to put Him in charge instead of feeling like it was all up to me. I created a plan that fits ME. Simple routines to incorporate faith into my daily tasks. A lifestyle that’s allowing me to prosper into the woman God is calling me to be. And I’m ready to share it with you! If you are tired of waiting for motivation to strike and you are ready to do the work to declutter your home, plan meals your family will actually eat, break free from living paycheck to paycheck, learn to implement routines for a peaceful home that practically runs itself, AND make a new Catholic BFF who wants to share in your joys and struggles, - this podcast is for you! Grab your garden shears because you’re about to prune away the clutter of life so you can prosper into the woman God has called YOU to be!

Is the clutter in your home so overwhelming you don't know where to begin? Or you do begin and quickly make a bigger mess, get frustrated and give up? Are you waiting for motivation to strike and THEN you'll get it together?
Motivation is not going to strike, so STOP waiting for it! Just get started and guess, what? Momentum will kick in and help you finish the job. When we look at the big picture, it's easy to get overwhelmed and stay stuck. In these Saturday morning episodes, I lead you through one very small area of your home to declutter for just 5 minutes. You won't pull everything out and make a bigger mess, you'll just handle a very small section at a time. Week after week and little by little, your home will begin to feel lighter. You'll be able to freely open kitchen drawers and quickly find items. Cleaning will become easier too because you won't be cleaning before you can actually clean. 5 minutes will make a difference! Set your prayer intention to unite your work with Him, pop in this podcast, and set your reward. Let's get started

Opening Bible verse: Proverbs 21:5
"The plans of the diligent are sure of profit, but all rash haste leads certainly to poverty."
It is recommended by Remit Sethi that our fixed costs do not exceed 60% of our take home pay. This percentage allows wiggle room in our budgets for saving for retirement, short term savings to cover unexpected expenses and vacations. Keeping fixed costs at or below 60% allows a more relaxed relationship with money. Life is more predictable and surprises don't come with nearly the stress as when there is little wiggle room in the budget. It leaves us room to enjoy our lives and better respond to God's calling.
In today's podcast episode I talk about those obvious fixed costs as well as those sneaky ones that we add without giving them too much thought. Once we add a fixed cost, it's very hard to take it away. Being diligent about adding a fixed cost will allow you to profit. Adding a fixed cost without much thought leads to poverty.

Is wine time lasting a little too long? Are you rushing through bedtime routines so you can sit down and pour that first glass? Is your evening routine wreaking havoc on your morning routine? Is alcohol preventing you from becoming the woman God is calling you to be?
I hear you! I've tried many different methods in an attempt to curb my wine habit. Daily rosary (my faith) combined with accountability is what works best for me. On today's podcast episode I'll introduce you to Christie Walker. She combines our Catholic faith with coaching to help her clients take back the control alcohol has taken from them. Whether you want to reduce or completely eliminate alcohol, Christie can coach you through it.
She is the host of the amazing podcast, The Catholic Sobriety Podcast

Opening Bible verse: Matthew 9:9
"A disciple is a decision maker." - Father Mike Schmitz
When Jesus called Matthew to be a disciple, Matthew didn't hesitate. He made a quick decision to walk away from his life as a tax collector and become a follower of Jesus. We too, can decide to be something different this year. Who do you want to become this year? What are the things that person would be doing

Opening Bible verse: 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Over 41% of Americans are obese. Studies have linked in an increased risk of obesity to clutter and debt. Another study showed increased cortisol levels in women who lived in a cluttered home. Ladies, it's all tied together. In today's podcast episode, I talk about 5 easy ways we can begin turning around our health, wealth and cluttered homes.
Also mentioned in today's podcast episode is Remit Sethi's Conscience Spending Plan. It's a great place to start to see if your fixed expenses are crushing you financially. Conscience Spending Plan Template
