A new year is starting... so get a jump start on those goals with one of these FREE resources!
As a marriage and family therapist, I have always been a big fan of resources. I like having something to physically give to clients. Things we can all hold in our hands and look back to when we're feeling distracted or overwhelmed.
If that sounds pretty good to you, I bet this sounds even better... THEY'RE FREE!!
Yes, I do have several devotionals that I've written over the years that are also awesome, but not free. And there are some 30-day challenges in the shop and some printables in my Etsy shop.
But today, let's talk FREE. Here are the links, if you want to grab one (or all) and jump start those new years goals:
FREE EBOOK - Building Your Mom Toolbox: 5 Skills Every Mom Needs To Get Your Family Out Of The Rut And Reconnect
FREE Conflict Resolution Cheat Sheet
FREE 45-day Bible and Prayer Guide
FREE Journaling Prompts for Christian Moms
FREE list of 100 Ways To Love Your People Well
FREE list of 51 free Self Care Ideas
And of course... this podcast is FREE so I hope you'll subscribe to the show, leave a 5-star review for encouragement, and copy the link to text it to a friend who could use some biblical encouragement and practical tips in the new year.
Welcome to 2025, friend! I'm so glad you're here.
hugs & blessings,
Jess

Happy New Year friends! I know that the holidays have probably been very busy and hopefully very happy and very fun and so as we are wrapping up 2024 I am just hopping in really quickly here on the podcast to encourage you to grab a freebie to start your new year well. The mission here on the Love Your People Well podcast is to help you build healthy, happy, and holy family relationships and if you have listened to the podcast for any length of time you probably have picked up on the fact that I love a good resource. Something tangible that I can pull up and look at or print out and hold in my hands. I like action steps. I like having things to do and things to use tools and resources to help me achieve a goal and that is why here on the podcast we offer I offer biblical encouragement but also a lot of practical tips and a lot of those come from my own personal life as a wife as a mom but also from my professional career as a marriage and family therapist and of course the disclaimer is in every podcast description of course this podcast is not therapy. I'm not offering specific professional advice in anyone's particular situation but a lot of people come to counseling with a lot of the same struggles and questions and concerns and so a lot of that is informing what do we talk about here on the Love Your People Well podcast. So if you're anything like me and you like a good resource and especially if you like a good deal there's really no better deal than free. So I just want to highlight the six freebies that I offer over at loveyourpeoplewell.com/free where you can grab one of them, grab all of them and let them be a blessing and a help to you in the new year. Now yes there are other resources there. I have a line of devotionals there for sale, tackling different topics in family life like emotional control and communication in marriage, finding your identity in Christ. There's a number of of devotionals and resources there. There's also a number of 30-day challenges if you really want to kind of kickstart and run through with a new habit, a new routine or skill or thing that you're trying to work on in your life but we are just gonna focus right now on the freebies. So I'm just gonna roll down the list if you pull up the website you can walk along with me. One of them is an e-book. Okay a free e-book called building your mom toolbox and it walks through five skills that every mom needs to get your family relationships back on track. Like we all get stuck in a rut sometimes, we get stuck in some rhythms and routines and ways of doing life that are just kind of bleh not that great or maybe just downright unhelpful and so these are five skills that I work on with people all the time in the counseling room that will help you get out of that rut and reconnect. Figure out what's going on what can I do about it and then try something different. So that is a free e-book with some worksheets in there and and lots of helpful information for your family relationships. There's also a freebie one of the most popular ones that is a very simple 10-point conflict resolution cheat sheet. It'll print just on one page it's just kind of meant to be a resource you can pull out in the heat of the moment when everyone's losing their cool the conversation's not going very well pull it out and just walk through one two three four and start to change the conversation to end the conflict and restore peace and kind of figure out where did things go wrong how do we get back on track. So that is a free conflict resolution cheat sheet. There is also a Bible and prayer guide a 45 day Bible and prayer challenge I call it the holy habits that walks through 45 days of Bible readings with questions to consider and reflect on as well as prayer prompts to help you build a habit of spending your own time reading the Bible your own time in prayer feeling more confident about what you're reading about how you're interacting with the Lord feeling more comfortable with Scripture and with prayer. So that free 45 day Bible and prayer guide is a great resource the conflict resolution cheat sheet and the Bible prayer guide are the two most popular if that impacts you at all. Let's see and then there's also a free journaling prompt PDF that walks through kind of some some basic questions and then some digging deeper questions around what does your family life look like what does scripture say that it should look like where are the gaps there how can you improve things there just to help you really think through your family relationships and your home life and so those journaling prompts are a free resource available to you.
