If you are new, start here! Our goal is to Make ONE Mother’s Day with some time-saving tips or sanity-saving tips that might be basic to you – but could be genius to another mom. Let’s help each other out!
Today’s Tip 9 is by Wynter of For Girls Like You
Hi Lil Light O’ Mine friends! I am not a morning person…at all…so when we have to be up early, this is what I do the night before to help silence the chaos of the morning rush!!
I met Wynter at dotMOM as we were exhibiting just down the row from each other. We had the best talks about our dreams for our businesses. She’s a proud wife and the mom of four girls – and the founder and editor of For Girls Like You Magazine, a ministry to girls (age 6-11) and their parents, that includes a quarterly print magazine, journal, and other print and web resources. You can also find her on ibelieve.com as a frequent blogger and as a contributor for Lifeway’s HomeLife Magazine!
Today’s Tip 10 is by Ashley
I listen to podcasts while I fold laundry, tidy up the house and while driving all over my big city. Listening to them fills my heart, stretches my mind and helps me pray. They are free and much easier to download then you think. Just ask a friend to help! Or ask me on this post. Happy to help explain it.
Ashley is a mom of three and a proud wife to her sweet man. She is a dedicated advocate and protector of all her children. She is passionate about orphans, adoption and marriages. I love how she stretches my thinking and challenges me to grow while grounding me in truth. She’s a trusted friend.
Learn more from some of her great stories of faith here.

Ash – I’m so glad you taught me how to do finally do podcasts. I really thought it was complicated. Folks – it’s a hidden jewel on your phone. I have LOVED being able to listen to thing s like Catalyst and Passion and all of those events I cannot attend but now I can hear them right on my phone! What podcasts do you love?
Okay, so I have the podcast app, but get confused with how to find (or follow?) certain people. How do I know when there’s a new podcast available? I need a tutorial, Ashley! 🙂
Hey Anna! So excited for you to get into the podcast world! First search for what you want-you can go through the podcast app or iTunes if you’re using an iPhone. Then if it is something you want to “follow” you will subscribe to that podcast and when new episodes become available they will automatically download to your app. You will see a little bubble telling you that you have new podcasts to listen to as they become available. Also, you can set them to keep all, or just the most recent ones etc. I tend to want to save everything but I have to make sure that setting is correct or I will jam up all the memory on my phone! I hope this helps! Keep me posted on what you find
