Podd: 3 in 30 Takeaways for Moms

426: What to Do When You Don't Like Your Kid (Even Though You Love Them!)

21 april 2025 | 32 min

This is one of those episodes I felt called to record because I know so many of us have been here. You love your child with your whole heart, and yet, in certain seasons, you find yourself thinking, I just don’t like them very much right now.

That doesn’t make you a bad mom. It makes you human.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing three tools that have helped me move through those really hard parenting stretches—when one child is pushing every button I have—and find my way back to affection, connection, and even joy.

We’ll talk about:

💜 How your child’s “hardest” traits may actually be their biggest strengths in disguise

💜 Why the words you say about your child (even when they’re not around) can shape how you see them

💜 What to do when your child is constantly seeking negative attention—and how you can gently redirect that cycle

I’ll also tell you about a simple mindset shift that changed the way I experience motherhood—plus the journaling tool I created to help me live it out day by day.

If you’re in a tough season with one of your kids, I hope this episode feels like sitting down with a trusted friend who truly gets it—and who can gently offer some ideas for how to keep going.

425: When PARENTING Doesn't Turn Out As Planned // Michelle Barrow

14 april 2025 | 39 min

What happens when your child's story looks nothing like the one you had imagined? This heartfelt encore episode features my dear friend, Michelle Barrow—a mother of four and grandmother of six—who generously shares the wisdom she’s gained from raising teenagers and supporting her adult children through life’s unexpected twists.

This conversation is a powerful companion to last week’s episode with author Jessica N. Turner on moving forward when life doesn’t turn out as planned. In this episode, Michelle invites us into her journey of learning how to let go of rigid expectations, make room for her children’s evolving identities, and parent from a place of trust rather than fear.

In this conversation, you'll hear:

💜 Why “parenting formulas” don’t guarantee outcomes—and how letting go of expectations can lead to more peace and joy.

💜 What it looks like to change the rules mid-parenting, and how doing so can strengthen trust and relationships within your family.

💜 How to stay rooted in your values while giving your children the freedom to shape their own stories.

💜 And ultimately, how you can find peace and steadiness in parenting, even when things don’t go as planned.

Whether you're parenting toddlers or teens, this episode will leave you feeling seen, inspired, and encouraged to embrace the beautifully imperfect journey of motherhood.

424: When LIFE Doesn't Turn Out As Planned // Jessica N. Turner

7 april 2025 | 37 min

When you were younger, did you imagine your life turning out a certain way? Maybe you thought you’d have a house full of children, a forever kind of love, or a career that lit you up. But what happens when the reality of your life looks nothing like the dream?

In this heartfelt and hope-filled episode, I sit down with bestselling author Jessica N. Turner to talk about how to rise from life’s deepest disappointments and rebuild something beautiful. Jessica vulnerably shares her personal story of walking through a midlife divorce after her husband of 16 years came out—and the healing journey that followed.

Whether you’re grieving the loss of a dream, struggling through a transition, or just feeling stuck in unmet expectations, this conversation will help you:

💜 Feel less alone in your disappointment and more seen in your story.

💜 Understand how to make meaning from your grief without rushing through it.

💜 Explore practical ways to process emotional pain.

Jessica’s wisdom is layered with empathy, grace, and real-life tools. She reminds us that even if we didn’t choose the hard thing, we can still choose what comes next.

423: How to Parent a Strong-Willed Child Without Losing Your Mind // Kirk Martin

31 mars 2025 | 38 min

If you have a strong-willed child, you know that traditional parenting strategies just don’t work. No amount of reasoning, bribing, or threatening seems to move the needle—and sometimes, the more you push, the harder they push back. So what does work?

In this episode, I’m joined by Kirk Martin, founder of Celebrate Calm and host of the Calm Parenting Podcast. With his signature humor and straight-talking style, Kirk shares practical strategies for understanding and guiding strong-willed kids—without constant power struggles.

Tune in to learn:

✨ The quickest way to change your child’s behavior (hint: it has little to do with them!)

✨ How to de-escalate meltdowns -- without saying, "Calm down!"

✨ The power of using body posture and tone to foster cooperation

✨ Why strong-willed kids thrive in adulthood—and how to survive their childhood

For a FREE printable with tips for de-escalating meltdowns, along with a private podcast feed that includes all of the episodes I've produced on raising strong-willed kids, click here!

My friend, if you're feeling exhausted, frustrated, or just plain out of ideas with your strong-willed child, this episode is for you. And please know I'm in the trenches with you, and I'm rooting for you!

421: Feeling Overwhelmed by Housework? You’re Not Alone. // KC Davis

17 mars 2025 | 38 min

If you’ve ever looked around at a sink full of dishes or a pile of unfolded laundry and felt like you were drowning, you’re in good company. I know that feeling well. As a recovering perfectionist and all-or-nothing thinker, I used to struggle with self-compassion when it came to housework. But through therapy and learning from experts like KC Davis, I’ve discovered a new way to approach it—one that’s kinder, more sustainable, and rooted in self-care.

If you can relate, you're going to love this conversation with KC where we talk about:

🧦 A new twist on the reason for housework (hint: it has a lot to do with self-care!)

🧦 Powerful affirmations to help you release guilt and embrace self-compassion about your messy house.

🧦 A brilliant idea for simplifying laundry!

If housework feels overwhelming, I hope this episode offers the encouragement and practical help you need. You’re not alone in this, and I’m cheering you on!

17 februari 2025 | 31 min

It’s amazing how just one small word can shift an entire conversation—for better or worse. Without realizing it, we often invite comparison into our discussions, creating unnecessary tension or discomfort.

That’s why I’m thrilled to have Kathie Gwilliam on the podcast this week! Kathie is an expert at identifying the subtle ways comparison sneaks into our language, and she’s here to help us become more self-aware.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

✅ Three common phrases that unintentionally fuel comparison—and what to say instead.

✅ How to help your kids when they feel insecure after someone else gets a compliment.

✅ A simple way to introduce yourself with confidence.

✅ Why we need to be mindful of body-talk around our kids—plus a healthy way to process body image struggles.

Since learning from Kathie, I’ve been catching myself making comparisons—and I’m working on changing that! I’d love to hear how this episode impacts you. Come share your thoughts with me on Instagram!

415: How to Get Help for Mental Illness // Sarah McKenna

6 februari 2025 | 38 min

After my daughter Sally was born, I stopped sleeping. During the day, I had a hard time looking at my baby because I didn’t feel like I could take care of myself, let alone her. Up to this point, I had managed my natural melancholy okay on my own, but after a terrifying panic attack, I reached out for professional help.

I attribute my quick decision to get help to my older sister, Sarah, who has fought mental illness since she was a young teenager.

This time of year can be especially difficult for many emotionally. That’s why I’m dedicating three episodes to the focus on mental health in motherhood. On Monday, you heard Sarah and I discuss depression in motherhood. Today’s episode is focused on how to get professional help. Next week, you’ll hear from Sarah’s husband, Logan, about how to support a loved one who’s struggling with mental illness.

In this second episode of the series, we discuss:

- A practical tip to help you stay honest with your doctor & therapist

- A few helpful thoughts if you’re scared to try medication.

- Two kinds of therapy you might not have thought about before.

Whether you are struggling with mental illness or you have a loved one who is, I hope you find this series of episodes helpful.

3 februari 2025 | 36 min

This time of year, I struggle more with depression. The winter months can be a really hard time - and I know it’s just not me! That’s why I truly feel like it’s important this time of year to talk about mental illness in motherhood.

To give this topic the full focus it deserves, I’m dedicating the next three episodes to focusing on mental health in motherhood. This week, you’ll hear previous episodes I aired with my beloved older sister, Sarah, where we discuss depression in motherhood and how to get help with mental illness. After that, I will air a new episode with Sarah’s husband, Logan, about ways to care for a loved one struggling with mental illness.

In this first episode of the series, we discuss:

One way depression manifests itself that you might not recognize (hint: knowing this might help you not feel so guilty when it hits).
A simple tip to help on those days when depression makes it too hard to even eat.
A helpful rule of thumb to use when deciding which self-care strategy you need most.

411: Decluttering That Sticks: 3 Mindset Changes for Lasting Impact // Erica Layne

13 januari 2025 | 39 min

With the new year comes a new surge of energy for me to GET MY LIFE IN ORDER! My kids always laugh at me when I get these bursts of motivation because they never last. They roll their eyes and humor me as I declare plans to declutter our home and patiently wait for my resolve to fizzle.

Is this cycle familiar to you too? Well, if so, you’re in for a treat. I truly believe that with some mindset shifts and a deeper commitment to our WHY for decluttering our homes, this can be the year that decluttering actually sticks.

My guest today, Erica Layne from The Life on Purpose Movement, believes this too. On this week’s episode, Erica will share:

- The simple mindset shift that can make it easier to "get to work" when you're feeling overwhelmed by your messy house.

- What clutter does (and does NOT) say about you.

- The best way to approach decluttering with sentimental items.

Are you ready to start the decluttering process and follow through this time? Let’s do this! Plus, if you’re looking to dive deeper into mental decluttering, my Declutter Your Motherhood Course is currently $50 off through the end of January.

410: Align Your Goal-Setting with Your Menstrual Cycle // April Davis of Haus of Vagina

6 januari 2025 | 37 min

As we dive into the season of goal-setting and resolutions, I want to start with an episode focused on honoring and understanding our female bodies and how that relates to goal-setting.

Because guess what? As women, we are physiologically unable to have the same level of energy and motivation every single day of the month due to our menstrual cycles, and that TRUTH should absolutely change the way that we set goals. We will not be exactly consistent with goals because our bodies are not exactly consistent, and that is okay!

In this episode, April Davis of Haus of Vagina educates us on our menstrual cycles and how to align our goals with our cycles, including:

1. The four phases of the menstrual cycle.

2. What to expect from ourselves during each phase.

3. Strategies for aligning our goals and ambitions with our cycle.

Tune into the episode to learn more!

I’ve also designed a FREE worksheet that recaps April’s awesome information. This is an incredible resource for you or any woman or girl in your life. I wish I had known this stuff decades ago!

Take care of yourself, my friend, especially if you’re luteal! xo

387: Why Calming Yourself Helps Calm Your Child // Eli Harwood

5 september 2024 | 17 min

This bonus excerpt is one I pulled from Eli's full episode that dropped earlier this week. (If you haven't had a chance to listen, I highly recommend it. It's one of the most value-packed conversations I've had on 3 in 30!)

Because it was so value-packed, we had to trim it to 30 minutes, and I didn't want you to miss out on this fascinating part of the conversation, so I decided to make it a bonus episode.

These thoughts from Eli on co-regulation for parents blew my mind!

I mean, I had heard of co-regulation before, but the scientific evidence behind it is fascinating! I had no idea there were nerve fibers that are activated when I caress my child, and these nerve fibers calm my child's heart down! It takes the old adage "If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy" to a whole new level. 🤯

Eli's explanation of the science behind co-regulation helps me understand why it is so vital that moms proactively do soul-care. It literally helps us build a buffer so that we don't dysregulate when our kids are dysregulated. It's so powerful!

(By the way, I just did a mini episode on soul-care! Click below to check it out!)

Taking care of ourselves helps us avoid losing our tempers and doing and saying things we regret.

If you want to explore managing your anger so it doesn't negatively impact your children's sense of connection to you, be sure to attend my live online masterclasses over these next two weeks on how to "reroute your mom rage." Click below to sign up!

23 augusti 2024 | 14 min

My kids are headed back to school soon, and they will be doing all sorts of assessments to see how they're doing in math and reading and writing. And this got me thinking: I need to do a series of mini-podcast episodes during this back-to-school season for moms to assess how they are doing, not with balancing equations or diagramming sentences (because I have a feeling most of us would fail those assessments 🥴), but to assess something way more important: our own levels of emotional wellbeing.

For the next two weeks, Monday-Friday, I will be publishing a mini-episode to introduce you to each of the principles I teach in my Self-Assured Motherhood course, a framework I created for overwhelmed moms. Each principle is an important part of emotional well-being and can help you in your personal assessment of how you're doing.

Today's principle is Santify Your Soul-Care. This is probably the only one of the nine principles that I'm still not solidly green in - even after years and years of work! But I share my commitment to getting better in the episode.

(If the idea of "solidly green" doesn't make sense to you, don't worry, I explain the episode!)

As you go along with this mini-series, you can use this self-assessment I've created to visually assess how you're doing in each of the principles we discuss.

I hope you find this mini-series helpful as you take time to consider your own emotional well-being. I'm rooting for you!

24 juni 2024 | 33 min

Have you ever thought about using the Enneagram in relationships? If you don’t know what the Enneagram is or haven’t used it much in your relationships, you are in for a real treat! It is an incredible tool for improving relationships, and I am so thrilled to share it with you today!

Now, a little backstory: For as long as I can remember, I've been a sucker for personality quizzes and profiling systems - anything that helps me understand myself and others more deeply.

I think this probably started with taking quizzes in teen magazines with my friends while growing up in the 1990s. 😝 (Please tell me you were obsessed with these, too! For nostalgia’s sake, I looked some up and found this one - doesn’t it take you back?)

Even now, in adulthood, I love learning about how I and others think and the differences between how we all move through the world. It fascinates me!

I am excited to share with you a conversation I had with Enneagram expert Kelsey Lincoln who helps us understand how we can use it to improve our relationships. You are going to love it!

Announcement:

Today is THE day, my friends. For weeks, I have been mentioning that the Self-Assured Motherhood Program, or SAM as I like to call it, would be opening for enrollment soon, and I am excited to announce that doors for enrollment are OPEN now and will close again on Friday, September 23rd. This nine-month program only opens once per year, so if this has been tugging at your heart, please don't wait or talk yourself out of it.

The first step is to sign up to attend a free online class that I will be teaching several times live over the next two weeks. This isn't just a sales webinar…this is actually the first class of my nine-month curriculum, so you can get a taste of what the program is like, even if you aren't sure you can commit to the entire program. Just go to 3in30podcast.com/freeclass to sign up, and the first class is tonight if you are listening to this episode on the day it comes out, so don't wait. I will be offering the same class several more times, so whenever you are listening to this episode, go to 3in30podcast.com/freeclass to find out more.

***

In honor of the Self-Assured Motherhood Program enrollment opening today, we are going to talk about one of the nine foundational topics that we explore in this program.

When I emailed the alumni of the program and asked which topic had had the most impact on them personally, so many of them mentioned this unit- Sanctify Your Soul-Care, and they shared with me super poignant and powerful stories of how they had applied this concept into their lives, so I actually invited three of those women to come on the podcast today to share those stories with all of you--because I think every mom could probably use some help in this area.

Introducing the "Minimal-ish" Podcast

9 september 2022 | 8 min

Hello friends! This is a surprise mini-episode as part of a fun new series I am doing once a month where I introduce you to other wonderful podcasts that might bless and benefit your life.

These shows are all produced by or part of the podcast network that I am apart of, Cloud10 Media. It has been so rewarding for me to collaborate with other podcasters who are working hard to get their important messages out into the world.

Today I am excited to share a little bit about the show Minimal-ish. Minimal-ish is a podcast about striving to live with less of the things that don't matter, more of what does, and pursuing intention in every area of our everyday lives and motherhood. The host, Desirae talks about a realistic version of minimalism that isn't just about simplifying our stuff, but also the other areas of our lives like our calendars, routines, mindset, motherhood, work, finances, and everything in between.

Desirae is a mom to two girls (4 months and 4 years), a high school English teacher, and has been podcasting since 2018. Her passion is sharing what she is learning on the journey of living with less stuff and more intention, along with making space for others to share their stories as well.

For today’s mini episode, we are airing a clip about how oftentimes, clutter represents unmade decisions. Desirae poses some questions to ask yourself while decluttering any area of your home like: Is this item useful to me? Have I used this item in the past in the 1-2 months? Do I have plans to use this item in the near future? Do I have space for this item? Is it a gift? In this clip, you get an idea of Desirae’s thought process for making decisions that we have been putting off, and evaluating what’s really worth keeping.

I’m so glad to be sharing this excerpt from the Minimal-ish podcast. After you listen, be sure to head over to the Minimal-ish feed to listen to the entire episode, which I will link in the show notes so it's easy for you to find.

So with no further ado, here is a clip from Desirae of the Minimal-ish Podcast!

246: How to Encourage Creativity in Kids // Noah Nielson

1 augusti 2022 | 32 min

My son Noah is a creator. He spends hours every day building with LEGO, and if he ever finds a big empty box, it will surely become a fabulous creation within the day. I am obsessed with this boy's brain and his creativity, and I am so excited that today,to celebrate his 11th birthday, we get to hear from him on the podcast. When I asked him if was interested in being on the show, he responded without hesitation, "Of course I would! It would be an honor!"

He is confident, funny, and a natural born leader, and I know you are going to get a kick out of his personality in this episode, as he teaches us how to encourage creativity in kids. I love him, and I can't wait for you to learn from him.

Announcement:

I wanted to give you a sneak-peek of something I've been working on this summer behind-the-scenes. If you've been listening to the podcast for a while, you may remember that last fall, I launched a nine-month long program called Self-Assured Motherhood and I was thrilled to have almost 90 women join. These amazing mothers spent the last nine months working with me on becoming more confident and content mothers and women. We had nine different monthly topics with masterclasses and coaching and Q&A, and it was absolutely life-changing for them AND for me. One mother sent me an email that said this:

Being part of this program has been incredibly eye opening and transformational! Every single time I have a class, I go back to my husband I tell him that I don’t regret a single penny that we have spent on SAM! This all so far has been worth it and then some! Not only am I being so blessed by all of this, but my family is too! Thank you!

That first round of the Self-Assured Motherhood Program ended in July, and we are gearing up to launch it again in September. So if this is something that piques your interest that you might be interested in joining this year, stay tuned for more information. You'll be hearing about it on my podcast episodes and in my weekly emails in the coming weeks. I cannot wait to get started with a new group of women, and I'd love for you to be part of it as well!
