Calling all Catholic moms! Did you know it's possible to do this Catholic motherhood thing without losing your mind? Parenting these days is so hard because most of us are doing it without the tools we need. I'm Sterling Jaquith, a homeschool mom to six young kids, a business owner and I teach busy Catholic moms how to have more peace in their lives and homes. Each week on the Catholic Calm Mom podcast, I'll give you practical tools for calming yourself down, discerning what God wants you to do, and making rock-solid plans so life doesn't feel so overwhelming. If you're a Catholic mom, you're in the right place. Life is about to get so much better! And if you love the content of this podcast, check out all tools we offer at www.catholicmomcalm.com.

You're Not a Lazy Mom
Monday, 16 February, 2026
Are you telling yourself you're a lazy mom — even though you're exhausted, overwhelmed, and doing a million things every day? In this episode, I want to lovingly but firmly tell you the truth: You are not lazy. You are tired. And those are not the same thing. I've had six kids in eight years, and I know what it feels like to sit on the couch and wonder what is wrong with you… even though you've been giving everything you have all day long. In this video, we talk about: - why "lazy mom" is almost always the wrong diagnosis - the difference between exhaustion, burnout, and true laziness - how mental load fries your nervous system (even when your body still has energy) - why negative self-talk makes motherhood feel heavier than it has to be - how silence, prayer, and compassion for yourself restore capacity - why managing your mind gives you hours of energy back This is especially for Catholic moms who love their families deeply but feel worn down, overstimulated, and discouraged. Nothing is wrong with you. You don't need to try harder. You need more peace. I'm praying for you. Please pray for me. 💜 Sterling
