There is room for you to thrive in the little years.
CREATING JOY
Overwhelmed in the little years?
It’s 6am. Someone is already calling your name. A breakfast order has been placed, iPad time has been requested, and your eyes are not even open. Then you’re putting concealer under your eyes while little hands try to stuff a towel into the toilet, digging a shirt out of your closet without looking too closely at how many stains are on it, and just about to buckle everyone into the car when all tarnation breaks loose because someone’s socks are the wrong color. A diaper loses a fight with a blowout. Snack decisions are changed seven times. Suddenly, a nap window is about to be missed, your stomach is reminding you that coffee is not breakfast, you’re late for the first plans with friends that you’ve made in a month, and oh, the pile of laundry you just noticed again seems like it might just swallow you whole.
Overwhelmed? Well, yeah.
These early years of motherhood are no joke. Decision fatigue, loneliness, self-doubt, and brand-new challenges that we’ve never even heard of can be really overwhelming, whether we stay home with our babes full-time or spend some of our hours at a job. But what if I told you: the trenches where we feel like we’re sinking can actually be an invitation to joy?
The places where we feel completely in over our head are exactly the places where the Lord meets us. The Creating Joy Workshop is all about that truth and what it looks like spiritually & practically to live with lasting joy in the middle of a season just like yours.
This is not your average online course. I made it for mamas who are running around nurturing little hearts all day long. You’ll be able to dive into the content no matter how busy (or loud) your day might be—and I truly believe that the hours you spend here can change the way you see yourself, your days, and your motherhood.
Through your time in the Creating Joy course, you will
⚘ Clarify your purpose in this season of life — know who you are, what you love, and what you’re called to do in your right-now season
⚘ Make space in your mind and home for joy —pull out the weeds that hold you back from thriving
⚘ Infuse your days with creativity — build new life-giving rhythms that fuel your capacity like nobody’s business
⚘ Cultivate sparks of joy — notice and create beauty and goodness in everyday moments
⚘ Build community — serve others and experience the blessing of connection
⚘ Rest in the care of the Lord knowing that He is creating joy in you and He will not give up.

Linking arms with you in the trenches
I’m Megan, and I’m walking with you through this course as your host. I’m a believer in Jesus, wife to my best friend and mama to three little ones (all born in October, two years apart). I love flowers, vacuum lines, Chobani coffee creamer and good conversations. I don’t claim to be an expert in anything I’ll share here as I am right alongside you in the trenches of the little years, but the heart of Creating Joy is rooted in the source of all wisdom: God’s Word. As you go through this course, know I am learning and practicing the same things right beside you and cheering you on all the way.
FAQs
How long will it take to complete the course?
You can get through all of the material in one weekend if you power through, but I would recommend completing 1-2 videos a week for a total of 4-8 weeks. This will allow you time to process through the prompts and fully complete the action steps before moving onto the next section.
Will I have time to do this as a mom?
If you are a busy mom of little ones, this course was designed for you. Each video and workbook section is meant to be practical for your stage of life and simple to work through even with kids around you. A main focus of this course is helping you find time for your own growth as you invest in your family—so hopefully, with each section, you will find more and more freedom in your time.
Can I listen to the content like a podcast?
Yes! As a mama to three busy babes, I know how valuable audio content can be when we’re doing our best to nourish our minds and hearts while also using our hands to keep up with the needs of our families.. That's why I chose a video format for this course. In this workbook you will find pages with space for notes as well as module outlines to reference, so you’re covered whether you prefer to sit and focus or listen while you multitask.
