Moms Making Memories is a faith-based podcast for overwhelmed Christian moms who want calmer homes, gentler rhythms, and meaningful family memories—without hustle culture, guilt, or perfectionism.
Hosted by Jo-Anne Kitson-Johnson, this show helps you move from feeling emotionally stretched and overwhelmed to grounded, connected, and confident in your role as a mom.
Each episode blends:
• Scripture-based encouragement
• Real-life motherhood stories
• Gentle emotional and spiritual rhythms
• Simple, practical steps you can actually implement
• Faith-led guidance for creating peace at home
We talk about motherhood, identity, parenting, marriage, emotional regulation, faith, and the everyday moments that shape your family—rooted in grace, not pressure.
If you’re a mom who wants peace without pretending everything is perfect, deeper connection with your kids and God, and rhythms that support real life, you’re in the right place.
🎧 Press play, take a breath, and start making memories that matter—one gentle step at a time.
