I am Joslyn the host of the Positivity in Pregnancy and Motherhood Podcast. I am a thought enthusiast, Latter-day Saint Christian, wife, and homeschooling mom of five. After my first pregnancy turned into an emergency C-section at 31 weeks, I was terrified to have more children. Not only was I scared, but I also disliked a lot of the changes that pregnancy brings. As a young girl I had dreams of having a larger family and being a mom. That is all I desired. But pregnancy was HARD. It knocked me completely off of my feet and I began to dread it. I even HIGHLY considered NOT having more children because the pregnancies were SO difficult. But that didn’t feel right. I knew God wanted me to have more children. Around this time I began learning about thoughts and the power of thoughts and positive thinking. I decided I was going to try changing my thoughts surrounding pregnancy from loathing dislike to more positive thoughts. It was an intentional process but it REALLY helped! IMMENSELY! I have now had five children and one miscarriage but I found mindset shifts that changes how I looked at pregnancy and it changed my pregnancies for the better. God kept nudging me that these things needed to be shared with other women who desired to have more children but pregnancies were hard! Through Him, I created a simple course called The Positive Pregnancy Program that can help lift a negative mentality with pregnancy specific mindset shifts that WORK! I feel the passion and desire to share what I found so that you can also find the positive thoughts to help you through difficult and hard pregnancies. After having my first child, I had a VERY difficult time being a stay-at-home-mom (SAHM). This was very hard and discouraging. Being a mom, and specifically a stay-at-home-mom had been my life goal/ dream/ aspiration. I was drowning in negative thoughts that destroyed my ability to enjoy my role as a SAHM and felt hopelessly discouraged in my good goals. Why were these good goals of mine SO HARD!? 7 years later, after many listening to many inspired podcasts, books and help from mentors, I have overcome SO many limiting beliefs holding me back from reaching my goals. Here are just a few milestones I have reached: I have lost 45 pounds 2x. I have found thought tools to make VERY difficult pregnancies better. I have found DEEP joy in being a stay at home mom. I have SINCERELY enjoyed homeschooling my kids without feeling resentful or jealous. And in this journey I. Found. Me. I found Joslyn. ALL of this progress in my personal improvement in pregnancy and motherhood began with a THOUGHT and re-directing and training my thoughts. If you are ready change your thoughts, and make headway in your divine motherly goals through in pregnancy and motherhood through small and simple mindset shifts, I can help YOU! I provide easy thought tools, do-able ideas you can implement immediately, and thinking that can revolutionize you as a Daughter of God raising and growing His children! It is a powerful journey!

078 You are Special

Last week was very difficult. ( I explain why in my last episode 77 The Struggle is Real) As I was taking time to read to my children, I came across a book I had been meaning to read to them but hadn't got to yet. As I read this book, the peace filled my heart, almost to tears, that my Maker was there. He heard my prayers, and that everything was going to be alright.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE PRAYERS YOU PRAYED IN MY BEHALF, IT HAS BEEN FELT AND HAS REALLY HELPED ME FIND PEACE!
