This week on The Whole Motherload, I’m opening up a treasured Christmas memory I gained when I was young. It’s the story of how my family became “Christmas Angels” to our widowed neighbor, Mr. Allen, through a simple Twelve Days of Christmas tradition.
This is a story about legacy, connection, and the traditions that anchor us — especially during the holidays. I hope it warms your heart and inspires you to look for som...
In this grounding and honest conversation, Jackie hosts guest Erin Christensen in the first episode of the Words from the Wise series (one each season) — a space for women who have lived enough motherhood to look back and share wisdom from the heart.
Together, they explore the realities of raising children through both calm and chaos, and the unexpected growth that comes from the hardest seasons. Erin shares her journe...
Today’s episode is such a good one — especially if reading is something you want to do more of with your kids… or if you’re already a book lover and want fresh ideas.
I’m chatting with Ashley Furness, a mom of four who has built the sweetest, most down-to-earth reading culture in her home. She makes reading feel doable, fun, and not at all overwhelming — which is honestly what we all need, right?
We talk about:

This week on The Whole Motherload, Jackie sits down with Whitney Vogrinec, an “everyday mom” of two. Whitney opens up about the rhythms of love she builds with her kids, the resilience she hopes to pass on, and the importance of sharing the load with other moms.
From bedtime routines and four-year-old honesty to lessons from her own health struggles, Whitney reminds us that whole mothering doesn’t mean perfect motherin...
In this bonus episode of The Whole MotherLoad, I share the deeply personal story of Sarah O’Flaherty — my cousin from Ireland, my pen pal, and ultimately, the woman whose life has intertwined so closely with mine.
What began as a teenage letter exchange grew into a bond that connected me to my husband, Thom, and later to Sarah’s son, Logan, after her heartbreaking passing shortly after his birth. Through unexpected mom...
What does it look like to step into motherhood in an unexpected way? In this episode of The Whole MotherLoad, I sit down with Amy Davis, an educator, wife, and mom who married a widower with a young son.
Amy shares the unique challenges of being a stepmom in a situation where there isn’t an “ex,” but rather a beloved mother who passed away. From navigating identity and questions of “Am I enough?” to finding joy in ever...
Motherhood is messy, sacred, and full of moments where we wonder if we’re doing it right.

Colby shares her journey through infertility, raising multiples, and le...
