HEY Friend,

It’s time to quit doing all-the-things, all-the-time.

Step away from that never-ending to-do list. (It’s not the hero you think it is!)

Instead, let’s get you some customizable home + life management tools so you can finally feel productive without sacrificing your peace.

BRING IT ON!! >>

HEY FRIEND,

It’s time to quit doing all-the-things, all the time.

Step away from that never-ending to-do list. (It’s not the hero you think it is!)

Instead, let’s get you some customizable home + life management tools so you can finally feel productive without sacrificing your peace.

I’M SO READY – BRING IT ON!! >>
Here’s the truth:

Despite what culture tells us,
God never created us to do
all-the-things in the first place.

In fact, that’s His job.

SO HOW ABOUT WE put an end to the whole “do-it-all” idea, and leave that up to the God who can actually handle it?!

Let’s scrap that massive to-do list altogether, figure out what actually matters, and create a plan around that!

Here at Anchored Women, we design customizable home + life management tools to help you do exactly that:
Create a plan that fits the life, home, and family God’s given to YOU, not “everyone else”.

Say goodbye to exhaustion, and hello to a simpler way of living each day – one where you can feel confident in your productivity without sacrificing your peace.

get the tools! >

We do things a little differently around here.
You’ll find encouragement + tools designed to give you…

Permission to rest.

You’re a human with limitations, and you flat-out can’t do everything. And guess what? That’s a good thing. Instead of buying into hustle culture, you’re here to learn what’s most important for YOU to do in this season, and how to confidently let go of the rest.

Freedom to make it your own.

Listen, that instagram influencer’s daily schedule will never work for you, no matter how brilliant it is. You know why? Because she created it with her own home + family in mind. As she should! Let’s quit trying to make your life fit into someone else’s plans. Instead? Let me help you create your own systems–ones designed specifically for YOUR home and family!

Faith to anchor it all.

Nothing matters–not our homes, our daily plans, or even the meals on our tables–without Christ. We help you approach these daily habits + routines with both practicality (how it works) AND an eternal perspective (why it matters), always anchored in the truth of His Word.

I have tried so many made-for-you systems that left me feeling more overwhelmed than when I started. But Anchored Women has shown me how to set up my system for my home and lifestyle! Finally – the peace + process I’ve been craving!

Anchored Women helped me totally streamline my days, which means I now get things done imperfectly instead of continuing to strive for something unattainable.
I feel so much less stressed, and I’m able to focus so much better!

Let’s get YOU that less-stressed life, too!

Step 1 // Identify Your Season.

You’ve gotta get really honest about what you can and can’t handle right now, instead of forcing yourself to do all-the-things! I’ll help you identify your season, so you can narrow in on a singular focus for your next 90 days–one that makes sense according to your true priorities.

Step 2 // Create the Plan. Work the Plan.

This is where I give you the system that works for ev.er.y.thing–our Prioritized Planning Method. I’ll teach you how to plan according to your priorities, instead of your to-do list, and it makes ALL the difference! I’ve seen it work for hundreds of overwhelmed women—and now? It’s your turn.

Step 3 // Enjoy More Peace + Less Stress. For real.

Fast forward a few weeks and you’ve aligned your daily schedule with what matters MOST to you. You know how to adjust the plan when it isn’t working (instead of throwing it out the window altogether!), and you’re actually making time to rest! No more living chained to that to-do list, you’ve got a repeatable system that works!!

I’ve tried other home management programs in the past, with little to no success. But Kayse meets you right where you are, no matter your age or your current season in life. Her methods are customizable to you and your family, and can be easily altered at any time. Being able to give myself the gift of grace, peace, and freedom–instead of the stress I had been carrying around–is priceless

– Melissa H.

Hey friend, I’m Kayse!
Founder of Anchored Women

I know what it’s like to feel like you’re always behind…

I’m a wife, a homeschooling mom of 2, a business owner, and no stranger to that feeling of overwhelm that comes with the infuriating inability to EVER finish our to-do-lists.

Most people will tell you that you just need to up your hustle game if you want to get everything done.

Not me. 

Instead of encouraging you to hustle yourself into burnout, just to say you checked all those things off your list, I want to show you how to slow down, start with your priorities, and build a daily rhythm that accomplishes what’s needed AND gives you time to rest.

I’m so glad you’re here, and I can’t wait to help you get started!

These days, I keep it super simple ⬇️ One pag These days, I keep it super simple ⬇️

One page of prayer requests (color coded of course) for every category of prayer:

🌎 World + Nation 
⛪️ Community
💛 Friends
🏠 Family
💙 Extended Family
✏️ Work (Anchored Women for me)
➡️ Personal

Then, each day-ish, I write out my prayers for one of those pages (See how there are 7? That’s on purpose!), and color code if I’m feeling real crafty.

That’s it.

I write out my prayers because it helps me focus, process life, and talk to the Lord in the way he’s designed my brain best. I also usually copy down a few verses from my reading that day, so that I keep myself grounded in Scripture, and not in my feelings.

I have used many, many prayer journals, but I always come back to this simple notebook. It just works best for me. Comment JOURNAL below and I’ll send you a link to my favorite moleskine dupes that are so much cuter AND cheaper. 😍

Do you use a prayer journal? I’d love to hear what works for you!!

*I didn’t develop these prayer categories, just tweaked them from the @valmariepaper prayer journal I’ve used in the past!! It’s fabulous if you want something already put together for you! 

**Sticker on the front is from @solagratia.co - best stickers ever!!!

Alright, here it is. The best chocolate chip cooki Alright, here it is. The best chocolate chip cookie recipe EVER.⁠
⁠
Have I spent years working on this? Yes, yes I have. I wanted fluffy, but sturdy. Soft on the inside, perfectly crunchy on the edges.⁠
⁠
And this is the one, you guys. 😍 It's ready! Kid (and mom) tested and approved. Here you go!⁠
⁠
THE BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES EVER⁠
⁠
Start with:⁠
1 cup Butter - BARELY softened, still firm. (This is important for fluffiness. DO. NOT. MELT.)⁠
Slightly less than 3/4 cup Sugar⁠
Slightly less than 3/4 cup Brown Sugar⁠
1 tsp Vanilla⁠
^^ Mix all that together till it's JUST creamy.⁠
⁠
Add 2 eggs + mix again.⁠
⁠
Then add these ingredients IN ORDER, mixing after each one: ⁠
1/2 tsp baking soda⁠
1/2 tsp baking powder (do not skip - this also helps with fluffiness!)⁠
2+1/3 cups flour⁠
2 cups dark chocolate chips (@traderjoes are the best)⁠
1 cup chopped walnuts OR salted caramel chips (also from @traderjoes)⁠
^^Mix everything in slooooooooowly, one ingredient at a time, in order.⁠
⁠
Chill dough in the fridge for 30 minutes while you prep the oven + baking sheets.⁠
⁠
Bake on parchment paper at 375 for 10 minutes, or until the edges are light brown. Bake ONLY ONE TRAY AT A TIME. Each batch requires all of the oven's attention. Just trust me on this.⁠
⁠
Remove from oven and let stand on the baking sheet for 2-4 more minutes. Then move the cookies over to a cooling rack. Enjoy while still warm with your favorite glass of milk! (We like goat milk over here!)⁠
⁠
Happy summer baking, friends!! Share YOUR favorite summer treat with us in the comments!!
We took a few days last week to get out of town... We took a few days last week to get out of town...well, to head to the other side of town. We've found that getting "away" as soon as school gets out is a really helpful way to kick off our summer.⁠
⁠
Initially we had plans for a big trip - New York, Washington D.C., and visiting family on the East Coast. We had spent the last few years really excited about this trip, dreaming up some fun plans.⁠
⁠
But life happened, as it does, and that trip will have to wait a bit longer. Instead, we headed to a local lake, ate grocery-store-bought food in our tiny room (a bed, a couch, and an air mattress!), and stayed up late watching cable TV that we don't pay for at home. 🤣⁠
⁠
And it was truly wonderful.⁠
⁠
It's easy to look around on ​instagram​ or at church or in your own neighborhood, and feeling like your summer just might not measure up. Maybe you’re not going on any big trips, or your budget just doesn’t allow you to do all the things your neighbor does.⁠
⁠
That’s okay. Your family isn’t going to remember how much money you spent or how many places you took them. They’re going to remember how their summer made them feel loved and stable and how they made memories playing cards and watching movies and finding their new favorite series of books.⁠
⁠
And that, my friends, is nothing to feel badly about.⁠
⁠
Colossians 1:17, one of my favorite verses, keeps hitting home with me lately.⁠
⁠
“He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.”⁠
⁠
Even when I'm deeply disappointed – something that’s happened multiple times this year, actually – I can trust that Christ is right there holding everything together, for His glory and my good.⁠
⁠
So if you, too, are grappling with some disappointment this summer, I hope this verse helps remind you that no matter the circumstance, Jesus goes before you, and he holds all things together. 💛⁠
⁠
P.S. Even if you don’t have BIG plans this summer, you can still make FUN plans! Comment SUMMER below to download our super-helpful, totally free ​Summer Planning Pack​. It’s got a ton of great ideas and suggestions for your summer – including a simple workbook to help you figure out exactly what you want to focus on!
I spent the months of April and May glued to my co I spent the months of April and May glued to my computer screen. This sort of lifestyle does not match up with my values, but the fact of the matter is sometimes running a small business simply requires a lot of working time. And planner season hit us hard.⁠
⁠
It was all hands on deck, all hours of the day, and definitely NOT my best life.⁠
⁠
Plus, MAY with two children in school is just…a lot. Can I get an Amen? Cause I didn’t know that and now I do and ohmygoodness we will plan better next year.⁠
⁠
So, I wore my DO-ALL-THE-THINGS hat for a couple of months straight. I worked and worked and worked, and now ​the Planner is done​ and beautiful, and ​the new Library​ is all filled and ready to go. And all of that is truly wonderful!⁠
⁠
And I am so proud. ⁠
⁠
Also, I am so tired.⁠
⁠
It is typical for me to take a long break from the blog in the summer, but that’s not really an option for me this year, for many reasons. So I’m not taking an extended break. ⁠
⁠
But I am switching hats.⁠
⁠
I’m gearing up to trade in my DO-ALL-THE-THINGS hat for my Reader hat, and my Writer hat, and my Happy Wife hat, and my Not-Grumpy Mom hat. ⁠
⁠
I’m hoping that these hats feel a lot more like myself, and a lot less exhausted. 🫠⁠
⁠
Just a reminder for all of us: Running hard and pushing yourself to do-do-do all the time simply isn’t sustainable.⁠
⁠
So today, I want you to think about what hat you’ve been wearing for the last few months. Is it time to switch things up, to give yourself a break?⁠
⁠
Is it time to feed your creativity a bit? To paint, to read, to create? ⁠
⁠
Or is it time to rest & find your footing again? ⁠
⁠
Summer is here, friends. And we have a chance to use this season to do something a little bit differently. Tell me in the comments - what hat will YOU be wearing this summer??
