If you’re an overwhelmed mom who loves God but feels stretched thin, emotionally tired, or unsure how to create peace at home without burning out — you’re in the right place.
Moms Making Memories is a faith-based podcast for moms who want to slow down, reset their hearts, and build meaningful family rhythms rooted in grace — not pressure or perfection.
Hosted by Jo-Anne Kitson-Johnson this show is here to help you move from guilt-ridden and overwhelmed to grounded, connected, and confident in your role as a mom.
Each episode blends:
- Scripture-based encouragement
- Relatable, real-life motherhood stories
- Gentle emotional and spiritual rhythms
- Practical steps you can actually implement
- Faith-led guidance for leading your home with peace
We talk about motherhood, identity, parenting, marriage, emotional regulation, faith, and the everyday moments that shape your family — without hustle culture, unrealistic expectations, or shame-based motivation.
This podcast is for the mom who:
- Wants peace without pretending everything is perfect
- Desires deeper connection with her kids, spouse, and God
- Is tired of “doing more” and ready to live more intentionally
- Wants to make memories that matter — even in the middle of real life
If you’re ready to create calmer homes, gentler rhythms, and faith-filled memories — one small step at a time — press play and settle in. You don’t have to do this alone.

Are you embarrassed that your child doesn't know or can't remember scriptures from the Bible like you used to when you were a kid?
Do you want your child to be equipped to face this world without you?
Have a longing to pass on your Godly heritage to your children but don't know how?
Follow this method using any scripture to help your child hide God's word in his/her heart.

Monday Dec 06, 2021
A few years ago, I was asked to leave the classroom and teach music at a school that never had a music teacher. Music is my thing but teaching it the way public school requires you to is another thing that I wasn't too confident in.
Listen in to today's episode as I navigated the complicated feeling of incompetence and turned to the one who created me! Complete confidence in Him was what allowed me to break through the limitations...and guess what I used?!?! You guessed it....MUSIC! Now I am free to teach my daughter the same thing because I know it's inevitable....she will face similar situations of feeling incompetent and less than....

Monday Nov 29, 2021
I used to worry about how I'd teach my daughter all those things mother's teach their daughters. I overthink a lot of things and this was one of them. My mother taught me to read before I reached school, she taught me how to make different meals, how to maintain a house...she did such a great job training me and I figured out that I'd never measure up. That's when I decided to use what I know and teach what I know using MUSIC
