Hi friends! Welcome back to The Organized LDS Mom Podcast! Between backpacks, baseball practice, seminary runs, and that last-minute Relief Society text… it’s no wonder so many moms feel stretched thin. But burnout doesn’t always look like a breakdown—it often looks like tears over the dinner question or staring at your phone because making one more decision feels impossible.


In this episode of The Organized LDS Mom, I’m sharing a Christ-centered approach to navigating overwhelm with more peace and less pressure.


👀 In This Episode:



  • The subtle signs of burnout (and why we often ignore them)

  • How clutter and chaos can block the Spirit—and a simple 10-minute “peace prep” that makes space for it

  • Why your needs matter too (yes, even the solo Diet Dr. Pepper runs)

  • How to invite Christ into your chaos instead of waiting for life to be perfectly calm


✨ Key Scriptures & Takeaways:



  • This isn’t about doing more—it’s about doing less with more intention. 

  • Christ is with you in the middle of your messy season. Side-by-side.

  • Doctrine & Covenants 88:119 reminds us: “Organize yourselves; prepare every needful thing.”
