Yes — I really do record this podcast in my closet.
Because in a house full of boys, laundry, and Legos, sometimes the only “quiet studio” I can find is in between the hoodies and mismatched shoes. But honestly? That’s kind of the point.
This podcast was never meant to be polished.
It was meant to be real — and real is what you’ll get here.
👋 Meet the Podcast
“What Makes My Kid Cry Today” isn’t just a name — it’s a lifestyle.
Every Monday (and mini devotionals on Thursdays), I share stories from motherhood, moments of messy faith, and the unexpected tears, tantrums, and truth bombs that shape our days.

💛 What to Expect
- Cry logs (because the reasons kids cry are endless and hilarious)
- Devotionals for moms who love Jesus but don’t always love folding laundry
- Honest encouragement, even when your voice is tired and your coffee is cold
- And maybe a reminder that you’re not the only one wondering if fish sticks count as protein (they do, by the way)
🎧 Listen + Subscribe
If you’ve ever wondered how to hold joy and chaos at the same time — or just needed a laugh between spills — this podcast is for you.
🙌 One Last Thing
This show isn’t just about parenting. It’s about faith in the thick of it.
It’s about the Jesus who meets us in the mess, the bathroom-cleaning hacks we never thought we’d try, and the kids who somehow teach us the most about grace.
So grab your headphones, step into the closet (or your car or laundry room), and press play. Let’s do this together.
So here’s something I didn’t expect to be writing so soon:
My podcast is now monetized — and now streaming on Apple Podcasts! 🎉
I know… five-minute episodes, voiceovers recorded in my closet, and the occasional toddler yelling about toast doesn’t exactly scream high production.
But somehow, this little show is growing — and it’s all thanks to you.
🎧 What This Means (and What It Doesn’t)
Let me be clear: I’m not retiring early. I’m not suddenly sponsored by a cleaning product I don’t use.
This just means that every time you hit play, it actually helps support the show.
And the best part? It’s totally free for you.
No subscriptions, no tip jars, no awkward pitches. Just keep listening — and sharing — and you’re already part of the mission.
🍏 Now on Apple Podcasts, Too!
You can now listen to What Makes My Kid Cry Today on:
Apple Podcasts Amazon Music iHeartRadio …and more coming soon!
Just search the title wherever you listen to podcasts, hit follow, and episodes will show up every Monday at 6 AM.

🧺 Bigger Episodes Are Coming (Yes, I’ll Still Be in the Closet)
Most of my episodes so far have been short — five minutes, maybe seven on a bold day.
Because that’s usually how long I get before someone yells about missing socks or puts a toothbrush in the fridge.
But lately, God’s been nudging me to go a little deeper.
To stretch past the bite-sized and share more of the stories, the faith, and the “oh no, not again” moments of motherhood.
So yes — longer episodes are coming.
Some will hit the 8–12 minute mark… and eventually, I’d love to reach 15 minutes and beyond.
They’ll still be real. Still recorded in my closet. Still sprinkled with laughter, scripture, and maybe a meltdown or two.
Just a little more room to breathe between the giggles and the grace.
💛 Thank You
To everyone who’s listened, laughed, cried, shared, or prayed behind the scenes: thank you.

Want to help out? Just listen. That’s it.
