Today we have a special guest, Dani Watson from Fig & Farm At Home. She is a mom of 3 boys, wife, podcaster (Fig & Farm At Home), and an interior designer! Dani teaches moms simple, budget friendly ways to create a cozy cohesive home they love. She shares some of her story as a mom of littles, staring at the same walls of her home and being frustrated, but being too overwhelmed to know where to start. Fast forward to now where she helps moms just like her learn to love their home again and not break the bank. Pull up a chair and a cup of coffee, and listen in as Dani and I laugh and talk about fun budget friendly ways to restyle our homes.
I pray this episode blesses you!

Are you tired of fighting with your kids to get off their screens? Do you hate the attitude they have when they finally get off screens? Do you feel guilty because you handed your phone over to your kids, so that you could have 5min of peace? Me too! Screen time battles can be rough, and oftentimes we don’t have the energy at the end of the day to deal with policing and monitoring screen time. If we know anything about screens, we know that they aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. Screens are here to stay. So how do we interact with screens in a healthy way, with less fighting, less behavior problems, less whining, and less frustration? In today’s episode we are going to explore some easy screen time boundaries that you can set in place before things get crazy. Pop in those ear buds and grab a notebook. Let’s dive in!
