Wed, 08 Apr 2026 08:00:00 -0400

MEMBERSHIP WAITLIST

You love your kids… but you don’t love how you’ve been showing up lately.

If you find yourself feeling easily irritated, overwhelmed by the end of the day, and stuck in a cycle of reacting → regret → trying harder… this episode will speak right to your heart.

Today, Elizabeth shares her journey as a homeschooling mom who was doing all the right things — reading, learning, praying — but still couldn’t seem to create consistent change in her reactions.

Not because she didn’t care.
Not because she wasn’t trying.
But because something deeper was missing.

In this episode, we talk about:

What was really happening beneath her daily frustration and emotional overwhelm
Why more effort and more information didn’t lead to lasting change
The internal patterns that were keeping her stuck (even without realizing it)
The moment things started to finally “click” for her
How her home shifted from tension and unpredictability → to peace and connection
What it feels like now to be a calm, steady, and emotionally aware mom

Elizabeth’s story shows that it’s not about trying harder…
it’s about learning how to actually change from the inside out.

If you want transformation, the Calm Christian Mom Coaching Program is designed to help you break out of that cycle and step into the peace, patience, and confidence you’ve been craving.

“One day I’ll feel more patient.”

If that’s you, this episode is your wake-up call (in the most loving way).

Because there comes a point when it’s not “just a phase”…
it’s a pattern.
And patterns don’t change on their own.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

The 3 types of anger most moms experience (and which one you might be dealing with)
5 signs that your anger isn’t something to ignore anymore — and that it’s time to get real support
Why trying harder, praying more, or waiting it out hasn’t created lasting change
What your next steps can look like if you’re ready to break free from this cycle

Friend, this isn’t about shame.
It’s about freedom.

You don’t have to keep living in reactive patterns.
You don’t have to keep ending your days feeling defeated.
And you don’t have to figure this out alone.

If you’re ready to break generational patterns of anger and become the calm, steady, Christ-like mom you want to be…

300. Story time: How mindset kept me calm during a really hard solo parenting day

Wed, 26 Nov 2025 05:00:00 -0500

In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of a very real, very challenging solo-parenting week while my husband was out of town. It was one of those stretches where everything seemed to happen at once:

My daughter was dropping things, spilling things, and making messes that required me to intervene again and again.
Her emotional reactions were intense and frequent.
Bedtime stretched out because she kept coming out of her room—multiple times.
And I was navigating it all alone for days.

Instead of spiraling into frustration or snapping (which is what the old me would’ve done), I leaned hard into the mindset shifts I’ve intentionally practiced. In this episode, I walk you through, the exact thoughts I used in real time to stay grounded when I had hard moment after hard moment.

If you’ve ever wondered how mindset work actually shows up behind the scenes in everyday motherhood, this episode will give you a real-life example of how powerful it truly is.

Wed, 12 Nov 2025 05:00:00 -0500

I have two big triggers that lead me to feeling very frustrated. Interruptions when I'm trying to focus and time pressure/running late. Those two are the times when I feel the most triggered by my kids. And the reality is, if you are a mom you will face these on a regular if not daily.
In this episode you will learn:

Why do we feel time pressure
What thoughts are contributing to frustration
What you can do proactively to have smoother transitions
Empowering thoughts 'in the moment' when kids are not cooperating and you are running late.

294. Pulling back the curtain: the honest story behind my 5 year business journey

Wed, 15 Oct 2025 05:00:00 -0400

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain and sharing the real story behind my business.

Mid-October marks five years since I took action on the idea of starting my own online presence — which eventually grew into the business I run today. It’s wild to look back and see how far things have come!

I was inspired to record this episode after watching a video from MrBeast, where he created clips saying “hi future me” in 5 and 10 years. Something about that really made me pause and reflect on my own journey — how it all began, how much has changed, and the countless lessons along the way.

Sometimes people assume success happens overnight… but that’s rarely the case. In this episode, I’m opening up about:

The early days of starting from scratch with no audience
The fears and doubts I had to overcome to take the first step
How I slowly turned an idea into a thriving business that now helps moms all over the world
The faith and persistence that kept me going when things felt unclear or slow

This is my honest, behind-the-scenes journey of how it all began — and I hope it encourages you to take that small step of obedience God is putting on your heart, even if you don’t see the full picture yet. 💛

Wed, 08 Oct 2025 05:00:00 -0400

If you’ve ever been told that your anger is just a spiritual problem and that all you need to do is pray for it to go away, I’m here to gently tell you something you might not want to hear—prayer alone isn’t enough.

That’s why I created the Calm Christian Mom Coaching Program—to walk alongside women who are ready to do the deeper work, to understand what’s actually triggering them, and to finally feel peace in their homes.

If you’re ready to stop doing this alone and start making lasting change, your next step is simple: book a free consultation call. I’ll ask a few questions, help you gain clarity, and see if the program is the right fit for you.

Fri, 06 Jun 2025 09:00:00 -0400

Have you ever felt completely overwhelmed by your emotions and wondered, “Why is this so hard?” In this powerful episode, I sit down with Alicia Michelle—Christian mindset coach, author, and a podcaster—to unpack the root of emotional overwhelm and how to navigate emotions in a way that aligns with God’s truth. We talk about the deeper meaning behind your emotions, how your nervous system plays a huge role in your reactions, and how to respond with grace instead of guilt. You’ll walk away with practical tools rooted in both neuroscience and Scripture.

In this episode, you will learn:

What emotions really are—and how to experience them without falling into sin.
Why calming your body is the first step to processing emotions—and 5 ways to do that starting today.
A biblical 3-step process for managing your emotions in a healthy, God-honoring way.

If you've ever struggled with emotional outbursts, guilt after reacting in anger, or felt stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, this episode is for you. Alicia gives insight into how your emotional responses—like fighting, fleeing, freezing, or pleasing—are connected to both your biology and your beliefs. You’ll learn how to calm your body, silence your inner critic, and hear God's truth louder than the lies.

For the last 2 years I've been consistent on IG, showing up regularly, releasing content for mamas and sharing what I know.

I took a 2 week break from Instagram. It felt amazing. I didn't want to go back....So here I am sharing all the reasons I decided to leave social media and why you should think about taking a social media break as well!

Welcome to Emotionally Healthy Legacy. Top Podcast for Christian moms who want to overcome out-of-control anger and create emotional stability in their home

Fri, 20 Jan 2023 13:00:00 -0500

Welcome to Emotionally Healthy Legacy—a podcast for Christian moms who feel like they're living a double life.

You're calm and composed in public… maybe you even lead a Bible study, serve at church, and people think you have it all together.
But behind closed doors, there’s a side of you no one sees.

You yell.
You scream in your kids’ faces.
You grab their arms too hard.
You slam doors and say things you regret the second they leave your mouth.
You tell yourself, "If only they listened, I wouldn’t be like this."
And then the shame comes crashing in.

You cry in your room, whispering, "What is wrong with me?"
You ask God to take it away.
You read the parenting books.
You listen to the podcasts.
But nothing sticks—and the rage keeps coming back.

Mama, if this is you, you’re not crazy, you’re not evil, and you’re not alone.

I’m Elizabeth. I’m a Christian, a mom of four, and an Anger Coach for moms just like you.

For years, I lived stuck in cycles of explosive anger, shame, and guilt. I was moody, reactive, exhausted, and completely overwhelmed.

But when I started doing the inner work—inviting God into my healing, getting coaching, shifting my mindset—everything changed.
Now I coach Christian moms through the same process in my 12-week Calm Christian Mom Coaching Program.
It’s designed to help you break destructive emotional patterns, overcome mom rage, and create the peaceful home you desperately long for.

In this podcast, you’ll learn:

How to process your anger in a healthy way
Practical mindset and emotional regulation tools
Biblical truth to combat guilt, shame, and lies from the enemy
How to prioritize your needs guilt-free and set boundaries
How to build safe, connected, loving relationships with your kids
And how to partner with God to transform your motherhood from the inside out

You can be a calm, present, emotionally safe mom.
You can leave a legacy of peace—not pain.

If you’re ready to stop screaming, start healing, and finally feel proud of the mom you are—welcome, you’re in the right place.

Let’s do this together.

100. The podcast will be shifting. Changes on the podcast moving forward and what to expect out of the show.

98. What to do when you are having a hard day as a mom.

Wed, 04 Jan 2023 00:00:00 -0500

I feel you. I just recently had one of those days. Everything was off. Sick kids, attitude and rudeness from older kids, I was worn out. I just needed to shift something.

Today I share with you what I do when I have a rough day w/ kids to support myself. How I get the negative energy out and shift into the positive.

I honestly don't like feeling stuck in a 'mood'. I do what I can do get out of it.

It's not a matter of if you will have a challenging day...but a matter of when. As moms, well as humans, we all have tough days and I think its important to know what helps you to lower your stress and feel better after a long day.

If you ignore things, it will bleed into all other areas of your life.

97. Let's set some meaningful yearly goals together. Yearly planning and goal setting. (I share my goals with you)

Wed, 28 Dec 2022 00:00:00 -0500

Are you a goal setter?

If you have not listened to the reflection episode, start there. Its the one right before this one.

I love to set goals. It's like I sit down and create a vision of this ideal version of myself :) I love to constantly grow and improve.

I know that most people don't practice new year goal setting because they don't want to deal with the discomfort of not achieving them and failing.

That is something I used to feel, yet I discovered that setting goals helps me stay motivated to work towards that 'ideal version' of myself. Or towards my 'best self' for me and my family.

Bible says: where there is no vision, people perish.

If you don't know where you are going, you'll get no-where every time.

I don't know about you, but I love to sit down and reflect.

New years eve is one of my favorite days of the year. I love to sit down by the Christmas tree and journal.

I always start with reflecting before I set goals. I believe its super important to look at the previous year, see what worked and what didn't. Lessons I've learned. Hard things I went though. Things I'm are grateful for. Chose things to let go of moving forward.

In this episode I share my yearly reflection questions. I also created a download for you with the questions!

Wed, 23 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0500

I was messaging with a mom on IG and she told me...I feel like I never get enough alone time. Even when I do, it still feels like not enough.

-You are so exhausted, you can't do anything restorative, you end up scrolling on your phone or watch TV to just escape the reality.

If this is you, you are not alone. Many mamas I coach experience this. They feel guilty for wanting that time, when they do get it, it still feels like not enough.

I have a solution for you in this episode :)

Wed, 02 Nov 2022 01:00:00 -0400

Does your house clutter overwhelm you?

Studies have shown us that our stress hormone rises when we see clutter and mess. We naturally get overwhelmed because we see all the things that we still 'need to do'.

In todays episode I had the honor of interviewing Abby and she loves teaching mamas how to live an abundant motherhood starting with decluttering their home.

Abby Haggard is a motherhood coach, course creator, and the host of “The Fullness Show" Podcast which empowers mothers to step out of overwhelm and into overflow in all areas of their lives.

As wife to Chris Haggard and mother of 5 little ones, her dream is to raise her kiddos from a place of fullness and abundance and watch the overflow take place. Abby’s mission is to see mothers, fathers and families set free from the unhealthy cultural pressures that steal from the promise of the abundant life Jesus died to give them. The Haggards believe parenthood and childhood are too precious of a time to spend just surviving. We are called to thrive!

In this episode you will learn:
-What clutter does to us mentally and emotionally
-Creating a safe haven in your home
-Where to start when you are so overwhelmed by your home
-Questions to ask yourself when decluttering

Wed, 15 Jun 2022 01:00:00 -0400

There is a new trend going around. You probably have come across it and have heard about it. It's a new way of parenting, it's called gentle parenting. Some also call it positive parenting, respectful parenting or raising resilient kids.

This is a very different approach of parenting from the traditional way most of us were raised. If you are like me and you were raised with conservative Christian parents, you probably experienced spanking, threats and punishments.

The thing was, that was the only way to raise kids back then. Chances are, your parents like mine, had no idea there was another way.

In today's podcast episode, I had the honor of interviewing Wendy. Wendy Snyder is a Positive Parenting educator, family life coach & advocate. She is certified in Redirecting Children's Behavior & The Joy of Parenting Program. Wendy founded her online business, Fresh Start Family, so that she could spread the message of positive parenting across the world. She is the developer of a variety of online positive parenting courses and also has a monthly membership program to further support families. Wendy helps families parent from a place of great purpose and intention by creating healthy, respectful & cooperative relationships.

In this episode you will learn:

- How to create a close emotional relationship with your kids.
- What punishments and threats really do to your relationships with kids
- Should we teach our kids to fear us?
- What about spanking and what the Bible says about it?
- So how do we REALLY get our kids to listen to us?

62. I did something crazy and rare. How I had my maternal assisted C-section- I pulled my baby out of my belly

Tue, 17 May 2022 01:00:00 -0400

Have you ever heard of maternal assisted c-section? They are super rare. Most OBGYNs never even heard of them.

During a c-section (non emergency) the baby is pulled out half way, and then mama reaches down with her hands and pulls the baby out the rest of the way and places the baby on her chest!

The past July, 2021, I got to have that experience when I birthed my baby girl.

The hospital has never performed such delivery and it was very much out of their comfort zone. I am so thankful that my doctor was willing to go out of the box and allow me this experience.

Want to know exactly what happened? The episode describes my birth story in detail.

If you think this is a cool story- share with a mama who will benefit from it.

50. I feel like I'm failing at mom life. How do other moms have it all figured out?

Wed, 23 Feb 2022 01:00:00 -0500

Are you a good mom if you have a 'good baby'? Are you a bad mom if you have a 'hard baby'?

If you are like me, you were raised to believe that your kids behavior is a reflection of how good of a parent you are.

If your child does everything you say right away without complaining/whining or questioning, that means you are an amazing parent.

But is that really true? I believe that you can be a good mom even if you have a baby or child who is not 'perfect'.

The truth is, our kids are all different with unique personalities and sensitivities. They will want to do things their way because they have their own will. Their behavior is NOT a reflection of who you are as a parent. Just like your behavior is NOT a reflection of who your parents are.

You can be a perfect parent and still have a 'challenging kid'.

49. How do you actually handle frustrations of life? Tips to reduce explosions when feeling frustrated.

Wed, 16 Feb 2022 01:00:00 -0500

Its not going the way you want it to....You feel out of control...Frustration starts to build up...

If you are a human, then you KNOW what it's like to feel frustrated when things are not going the way you want.

The fact is, you will deal with frustrations of life on a DAILY basis. (especially if you are a mom 🤣)

Chances are you were never taught HOW to deal with it. The root of frustration is - feeling out of control. You are not getting your way.

In todays episode, I explain deeper the root of frustration and give you some tips on how to handle it so you don't end up turning to unhealthy coping skills.

48. What triggers do I actually have control over? How to deal with emotional triggers

Wed, 09 Feb 2022 01:00:00 -0500

If you are a believer like me, you know how often things are over spiritualized in the Christian communities.

I don't want to minimize the impact of the spiritual role and the strength God gives us in our lives.

On the other hand, Christians often people forget the practical aspects of daily triggers that impact our patience levels.

There is the strength that only God can give you when you face the trigger but your job is to avoid putting yourself in position where you KNOW you will be easily triggered.

In today episode I clarify things that are your responsibility in being patient and what is Gods. Let's take ownership of what is ours to own. Let God do what only He can do.

47. Tips to keep anger safe and under control

Wed, 02 Feb 2022 01:00:00 -0500

If you are honest, you probably experienced an anger episode at one point or another in your life.

The trouble is, when we are feeling intense anger or even rage, our logical part of the brain completely shuts off. That is why you find yourself saying and DOING things your would never do when you are calm.

I've had times when anger gets a hold of me and I feel out of control. It's like I know what I'm doing is really hurtful and it feels like I cannot stop myself in that moment. Scary. I know.

In todays episode I talk about healthy ways to keep your anger safe. Often times we know what we are doing is hurtful but we don't know another way to deal with that emotion. Todays episode will help.

Does anger feel unsafe to you? (It still does for me).

46. Ways to manage uncomfortable emotions during conflict

Wed, 26 Jan 2022 01:00:00 -0500

You've done it again! You said things to your spouse or your children that your really wish you could take back.

I've been there too. When you are emotionally charged, your logical/thinking part of the brain shuts off and you say things based on the big feelings you are experiencing.

You over exaggerate saying things like 'always' and 'never'. Once you cool off and look back at that conversation, the guilt sets in. 'I wish I didn't say that, I didn't really meant that...'

In todays episode I explain why you do this and how to handle conflict in a healthy way.

Do you say things you don't mean when you are emotionally charged? Then this episode will be helpful for you.

If you grew up in a conservative background like me, you probably heard that we are all sinners and we sin all the time. Which is true, though I believe there is a big difference between a mom reacting because she is sleep deprived and choosing sinful actions because you are feeling resentful or angry.

In todays episode, I go on a tangent explaining my perspective when it comes to unmet physical and emotional needs and how that will show up in your negative behavior. Also the difference between intentional sinful choices vs automatic reactions when your needs are unmet.

I know we all make mistakes, me included. There is grace for mistakes and forgiveness. We all have times we say and do hurtful things. The goal is to own that, apologize and decide what you will do differently next time to avoid the same circumstance.

40. What stressors can I control? Controllable vs uncontrollable stressors in life

Wed, 01 Dec 2021 01:00:00 -0500

You have control over your stress.

Of course there are things that happen to you that you cant control, but there are many things in your life that you have full control over.

Here are a few:
👉🏻Meeting your basic needs (sleep and feeding your body with nutritious food)
👉🏻People that you surround yourself with (emotionally draining people or toxic ppl)
👉🏻Trying to control other people
👉🏻Perfectionism/ high expectations of yourself
👉🏻Trying to do everything yourself.

You get to choose where you spend your time and energy on. Often times it's helpful to be reminded that you can let go of certain things and that will greatly reduce your stress load.

22. What do I do with my kids big feelings? How to help your kids understand what they feel

Wed, 07 Jul 2021 01:00:00 -0400

Have you ever thought about the fact that your children are experiencing hard emotions for the first time? Emotions like anxiety, sadness, loss, and disappointment.

Often we just tell them to stop feeling that, or minimize what they are feeling to help them 'feel better'. But, is that the best approach?

I think there is a better way to help children manage their feelings. One of the ways we can help them is by being with them in that feeling and also helping them label that emotion.

21. Life changing tips to make postpartum season an easier transition on you and your family

Wed, 30 Jun 2021 01:00:00 -0400

Postpartum is such a transition. If you have an honest conversation with any mom, each and one of them had something that was hard in that postpartum stage.

So many things we can't predict and will just need to figure them out as we go, but there are things we can do ahead of time to support ourselves in that season.

19. How your family of origin creates emotional problems in your relationships today and what to do

Wed, 16 Jun 2021 01:00:00 -0400

Family of origin: It has so much impact on who we are today. So many of our beliefs, thoughts and behaviors are framed in the family we grew up. So many of those patterns we carry forward into our own families.

Some patterns are healthy and some are not.

In this episode I discuss 6 major emotions we feel as humans. Which of those were allowed in my family of origin? Which were not? How did that influence me?

18. I just freaked out and screamed at my kids. What do I do now? How to repair a relationship after rupture

Wed, 09 Jun 2021 01:00:00 -0400

Have you ever felt guilty for yelling at your kids or saying/doing something hurtful when you are emotionally flooded? I think we all have been there.

So what do we do? When do we give ourselves grace? How do we repair the damage that has been done?

There are seasons in life when we need to give ourselves grace. Grace, not because we want to excuse our actions but because there is so much going on emotionally that it's hard to give to our family the best version of ourselves.

Messing up is part of life. We all do it. We are sinners. Thats why Jesus gives us grace. I mention things you can do/say to repair the hurtful things that were done or said. This is something I work on intentionally in my life as well.

17. What things to avoid when feeling overwhelmed and what to do instead

Wed, 02 Jun 2021 01:00:00 -0400

Life, work, motherhood, children. At times it just gets so overwhelming. It feels like TOO MUCH. We don't know what to focus on because everything seems to need our attention. What do you do when you are SO overwhelmed? When everything seems chaotic?

When we try to focus on all the things it gets worse. When we focus on only ONE thing at a time while applying skills to calm ourselves down, that is when we can move one step forward.

In this episode I talk about practical things we can do when we feel super overwhelmed.

16. How to teach kids about handling their 'negative' emotions well

Wed, 26 May 2021 01:00:00 -0400

Have you ever wondered how to teach your kids about feelings? In this episode I discuss ways I taught my kids about feelings and continue to do so.

Negative emotions are hard. They are even harder for little ones. Those feelings become so overwhelming and they often don't express them in helpful ways. We can teach them how and also model how.

Here is the feelings book I mentioned

15. Is it possible to be angry and NOT sin? What to do when anger wants to take over.

Wed, 19 May 2021 01:00:00 -0400

Have you heard this verse? Ephesians 4:26. Be angry and do not sin. Have you every wondered- how in the world do I do that? Most of us when we experience anger, we tend to say or do hurtful things. So HOW do we help ourselves?

In this episode I talk more about his verse and the following section of the verse which says we need to resolve the anger before the sun goes down. Is that literally what that means? What about all the hurtful things we say to one another when we try to resolve an issue late at night?

How do we control our anger? How do we manage it so we don't say or do sinful things in the midst of it? Lets talk about it!

14. Teaching your children to handle their anger and keep it safe

Wed, 12 May 2021 01:00:00 -0400

This is a challenging topic because many believe anger is a bad emotion and needs to be stopped, especially in kids. Let's talk about it....

Wed, 28 Apr 2021 01:00:00 -0400

Today we talk about how we see/perceive a situation can make all the difference if we are patient or not.

Wed, 21 Apr 2021 01:00:00 -0400

10. Do your kids disrespect you? How to handle disrespect with your children instead of getting triggered

Wed, 14 Apr 2021 01:00:00 -0400

Disrespect. That is such a hot button for me. How in the world do we deal with our kids when they mouth back at us? When they say something nasty or mean? I have totally been there with my oldest. Many times and still each time I get triggered and in order to not be sucked into that energy myself, I need skills how to respond instead of react. In this episode I talk about how I handle disrespect with my children when they say something mean, rude or with attitude.

Wed, 07 Apr 2021 01:00:00 -0400

What is the difference between being controlling or being IN control? Isn't that the same thing? Well, not really. Many of us grew up in families where a parent was controlling and as a child you had no say in anything. It was "Do it or else". You obeyed out of fear. If you want to have a close emotional relationship with your child you need to teach them that you are in charge without being controlling. Listen to this episode to learn how!

8. Are you experiencing mom burnout? How you can avoid mom burnout and take back control over your life

Wed, 31 Mar 2021 01:00:00 -0400

Do you feel like you cannot give one more ounce? It's possible you are experiencing burnout. It's very common in moms. It's hard to show up for your family when you are stretched thin with work, family, volunteering, sports, music and housework. In order to effectively show up we need to be intentional with choosing the things that matter to us. Nothing is important if everything is important. Let's find ways to simplify life so we don't have so much on our plate.
