Mary's Heart, Martha's Order: A Challenge for Catholic Moms

Stop drowning in chores.

start living with peace.

7–Week Challenge for Catholic Moms
Begins September 21st

Embrace your vocation with simple, sustainable housekeeping systems and a Marian heart to keep you grounded in Jesus.

Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and a little resentful in your vocation as a wife and mom?

You prayed for the life you have, but now it feels impossible to enjoy.

Between doing today’s 700th load of laundry, transitioning the baby down to one nap, clearing off the entryway table (again), playing endless chauffeur, and feeding the starving hordes of children… you’re completely drained, feeling alone, and *this close* to screaming at everyone (for the third time today).

Cue: the mom guilt

I mean, shouldn’t you just be thankful for what you have? Suck it up and handle your suffering with grace?

You’re trying, but the never-ending tasks and insane mental load leave you feeling like you’re always behind, running on empty, and buried under a Goliath-sized mountain of laundry, sticky floors, and children (and husbands) with constant demands.

I see you.

You’re not alone.

Many Catholic moms–good, holy women–feel like they’re barely keeping their heads above water, barely hanging on.

But here's the thing, mama...

Motherhood is not a contest for who can suffer the most.

God never intended for your motherhood to be a daily struggle where you feel like you’re losing your mind and yourself.

Motherhood is meant to be a vocation of love and joy. 

You can find serenity in the midst of chaos, serve your family with grace, and embrace the peace that surpasses understanding God intends for you.

And it starts with nailing down simple, sustainable housekeeping systems like Martha and embracing a Jesus-centered heart like Mary. 

Introducing
Mary's Heart, Martha's Order

Seven weeks to stop drowning in chores and start living with peace.

$79 $49 Back-to-School sale Thru Sept. 15th

During this seven-week challenge, you’ll get everything you need to create systems that maintain order in your home while equipping you with a prayer life that helps you enjoy motherhood.

Because let’s face it: life will happen, challenges will come, you’ll still have to feed your family three times a day every single day. 

But you can show up as the mother you want to be no matter what’s going on around you. Just as God intended.

Each Week, You'll Follow

  3 Easy Steps  

STEP one:

Watch a Short Challenge Video

STEP two:

Set Up a New Fool-proof system

STEP three:

(optional) Come to q&A Call for support and system refinement

“I felt a huge shift in just 30 days”

“By the end of the first month, I was already yelling less and feeling more peace.”

— Catherine

“My family is noticing the difference in me.”

“My husband and kids have said I seem lighter, happier, more present.

It’s amazing how just ten minutes a day of prayer and planning has made such a visible change.”

— Maria

What you’ll get during the challenge:

“I feel like I have so much more time.”

”I’m still just as busy, but I don’t feel frantic anymore.

The planning helps me focus.”

— Lucy


I’m not shoving you into a one-size-fits-all cleaning routine that only works for pretend families in the movies.

At the end of the next seven weeks, you’ll walk away with a personalized home-keeping plan tailored to your family’s unique needs and rhythms. You’ll have practical systems in place that truly work for YOUR household. 

PLUS… a short prayer routine that connects you with the Lord so you can maintain those systems without losing your peace.

Systems + Jesus = Peace

This is something you can learn (in a fun way with Catholic moms who love and support you!)

“This is the first time I’ve felt hopeful in a long time.”

“I didn’t even realize how hopeless I’d been feeling until I started this challenge. For the first time in a long time, I feel peace and real hope again.”

— Therese

“I used to dread the day. Now I wake up calm.”

“I used to wake up with a pit in my stomach, already overwhelmed. But now I start my day with prayer and planning—and it’s completely changed how I feel in the mornings.”

— Clare

I've helped thousands of Catholic moms.

For ten years, I’ve helped women make sense of the chaos of motherhood so they can drop the crushing guilt that they’re screwing everything up.

It doesn’t matter what life stage you’re in… littles to adult children.

When you tell yourself you’re failing… all day long… it’s exhausting.

Systems plus the love and care of Jesus completely changes your life and gives you so much of your energy back. Life doesn’t have to be draining!

here's what you'll do, week by week:

Week 1

Transform Your Time:

create a calendar that Brings Freedom and Peace

Create a calendar that works for your family and gives you lots of freedom so you feel empowered by–not beholden to your calendar. 

This week…

  • Learn my signature process for remaking your calendar so you can fit in all the things you need (and want!) to do AND feel great about it. This is the same method I use to manage six homeschooled children, run a business, attend daily Mass, and play board games with the kids. 
  • Shape your calendar so you have more freedom no matter what activities are scheduled. I have a full day from 6 am to 8 pm, take good care of myself, and don’t feel rushed.
  • Discover the ONE thing virtually no Catholic mom puts on her calendar. This makes every other aspect of their home management and motherhood easier. The first time you hear it, it’ll sound crazy, but then, it’s THE game-changer. 

Say goodbye to calendar stress, overwhelm, and the frantic craze that comes with a busy schedule and feel peaceful, calm, and in control of what’s happening each day.

Week 2

Mary's Peace in Any Storm:

5 questions to bring you peace no matter what you're going through

This is one of those life-changing tools. In fact, it’s what we are most popular for! We can teach you how to have that Peter walking on the water peace no matter what’s going on in your life.

This week…

  • Discover the five questions to ask to get clarity and peace. #1 by itself is a game-changing question.
  • Learn what challenges in your life require action and which require acceptance. This will give you so much of your energy back by saving you time worrying about things you can’t change.
  • This is easy.– I promise you’ll want to turn right around and teach this to your kids so they can cope with life’s challenges better!

You’ll walk away with a simple tool that you can use anytime, and it takes less than five minutes. The result is way more peace!

Week 3

Master Mealtimes:

Simple Meal Planning for Stress-Free Dinnertimes

Stop the drama around meal planning and create an easy-to-stick-to weekly plan that brings peace to your evenings and creates more quality time together.

This week…

  • Learn the five fool-proof strategies for meal planning that don’t involve last-minute scrambles, spending all weekend prepping, or feeling like you’re stuck in a meal rut. #3 will blow your mind, and I promise at least one of these will work for your family. 
  • Discover how to make family dinner time stress-free and enjoyable. Yes, really. Family meals are my family of eight’s favorite time of the day! 
  • Tackle common problems that ruin mealtimes–kids who don’t sit through dinner, picky eaters, “He’s kicking me under the table” fights, and more–so you know exactly what to do and can get back to enjoying your meal

Simple, repeatable meal planning strategy and feeling confident you can make family meal time a highlight of everyone’s day.

Week 4

Praying Like Mary:

Getting to know the holy spirit like never before

One of the reasons Mary had so much peace is that she was the spouse of the Holy Spirit. Lean on the same gifts that she did, so we KNOW we’re doing God’s will.

This week…

  • Dive deep into the gifts of the Holy Spirit.  We receive these gifts during baptism and confirmation and yet we seriously underutilized them. Not anymore!
  • Focus on WHEN to use the gifts. Knowing which gift to use in your day-to-day life is what you really need to know to leverage these holy superpowers that God has given to you.
  • Learn about God’s promises – from His goodness to His providence, we’ll cover the promises God has made that you can always count on. 

Know exactly when to call on the Holy Spirit for help and specifically what type of help to ask for to feel prepared for anything life throws at you!

Week 5

Lighten the (literal) Load:

Simplify Laundry and Closet Organization

Simplify your laundry routine, lighten your load (literally and metaphorically), and make it a manageable task that doesn’t overwhelm your day. 

This week…

  • Learn the one thing that most moms don’t do that you need to for clean and organized closets (and no, it’s not more containers or that closet system from Ikea).
  • Implement my proven system (straight from my bestselling book!) for decluttering clothes without getting rid of your favorite pieces. Seriously, mama, you can keep the earrings and the gaucho pants from 2002 and still have a clean, organized closet. 😘
  • Discover my three laundry secrets that work in any home so you can set a laundry rhythm and say goodbye to piles for good. #2 is genius. 

Feel great about your clothes, closets, and a laundry system. Stop drowning in dirty laundry or spending your entire weekend catching up.

Week 6

The Gentle Voice of Mary:

Having a Marian Voice in your mind

Most moms have a super negative voice in their minds and this… is very draining. Jesus wouldn’t yell at you and Mary definitely wouldn’t berate you to be a better mom and homemaker.

This week…

  • You’ll learn first to pay attention to the voice in your mind so you can begin to hear how you speak to yourself. 
  • Then you’ll start shifting that inner mean girl voice to the soft, gentle, and encouraging voice that Mary has and oh man, does this begin to feel so lovely.
  • You’ll find a new way to motivate yourself that’s based on wanting to please the Lord instead of the harsh, shaming way you’ve been doing it.

Like yourself so much more because your inner voice is going to be sweet and kind. Can you even imagine that?

Week 7

Clear the Car Clutter:

Organize Your Car and Overcome Perfectionism

Tackle the clutter in your car. If you’re the kinda mom who dreads opening their van door because you know trash, a snowsuit from last year, and possibly a stray cat will tumble out, buckle up. 

This week…

  • Learn how to turn your car into a back-up mom and serve your family in a bigger way than just getting you from Point A to Point B. 
  • Crush perfectionism so you actually do the stuff you plan to do (like cleaning your car) instead of overthinking it and staying stuck.
  • Discover my best hacks for keeping clutter to a minimum in the car so you can keep things orderly all the time (instead of spending a full afternoon doing a massive car clean out once a month).

Walk away with a clean, organized car that you feel confident you can keep that way. Oh, and we’ll murder your perfectionism (in a loving, Christ-like way, obviously 😜).

“My anxiety is way less.”

“Just starting my day with God has brought my anxiety down more than I expected. I finally feel like I can breathe.”

— Jennifer

“I finally feel like myself again.”

“I had lost touch with who I was under the weight of motherhood. This program helped me reconnect with myself and with the woman God made me to be.”

— Sandy

Mary's Heart, Martha's Order was created so that you can:

And because gift giving is my love language (especially for mamas), I’m also giving you these bonuses:

Bonus #1:

From Whining to Helping: Training Kids to Pitch In

(Value $49)

I don’t do dishes or laundry. 😲   My kids do that. Now… you have to have kids who are old enough (and tall enough) to do certain chores but as soon as they are able, it’s best to teach them pitch in. 

I will spill all my secrets to getting kids to help… and I mean really help. Not creating more work and mess than when they started. 

Here’s what you’ll get:

  • Step-by-step strategies for training kids how to do chores.
  • List of age-appropriate chores with other factors to consider (e.g. height, ADHD, personality type, etc.)
  • Plan for whining. I’ll teach you how to be cool as a cucumber when you say in your most Mary Poppins voice, “It’s okay that you feel that way, but please get your chores done anyway.”

Bonus #2:

14 Day Declutter Challenge

(Value $27)

When your home is messy, your brain works overtime just to process it—and you feel drained before the day even begins.

This 14-Day Challenge will help you clear the clutter and create calm, peaceful spaces—fast.

You’ll get two quick training videos and simple worksheets to guide you—no stress, no overwhelm, just small steps that make a big difference.

In just two weeks, you’ll feel lighter, have more energy, and love looking at your tidy, peaceful spaces.

Bonus #3

The Decision Matrix

(Value $27)

Don’t you wish you could just go to Adoration and ask God what to do and He’d tell you a detailed answer with timelines and a checklist?

God rarely gives us that much detail but He does give us more clues than we think. 

Using the Catholic Mom Calm Decision Matrix, we help put numbers to 

✅ Evaluate what’s working and what needs work
✅ Figure out if you should travel to your in-laws this Christmas or not.
✅ Takes less than 5 minutes.
✅ Are sports helping or hurting your family?

THROUGH SEPTEMBER 15th

“My marriage is way better.”

”This program isn’t about marriage, but it helped me be calmer and less reactive—and that’s changed everything at home.”

— Helen —

“I thought I needed a new planner. I needed this.”

”I kept buying planners and trying new systems, but nothing stuck. It turns out I didn’t need more tools—I needed peace, prayer, and a new way of thinking.

— Kelsey —

“We’re finally crawling out of survival mode.”

“This gave me a way to take steps forward without getting overwhelmed.”

— Juliana —

Hey, mama!

I'm Sterling.

I’m a Catholic convert and mom of six, and there was a season in my life when I felt like I was drowning. 

Our home was disorganized, my tidying systems never worked, and I felt trapped by my role as mom. I complained to my husband, yelled at my kids, and thought I was ruining them. 

Not only would they not know how to fold laundry, but they’d need a couple of decades of therapy to recover from me being their mom. 

Then I learned something that changed everything. I learned how to create systems that worked for my family and how to get my brain on board every single day. 

It transformed my entire life. Now my home is organized, and I haven’t done a load of laundry in 4 years. Yes, there are still hard days, but now I call them full days, and I know exactly how to handle them.

And you can too.

I want to give you the tools to create routines that actually work for your family’s unique needs.

Basically… I want to make motherhood as peaceful and fulfilling as God intended for YOU, which is exactly what we do in Mary’s Heart, Martha’s Order. 

We’ll start by helping you identify the areas of your home and life that are causing the most stress.

Then I’ll guide you through creating simple, sustainable systems that bring order and peace to your days, with a faith-centered mindset that keeps you grounded and calm in your vocation.

Ultimately, I want you to know…

You could spend hundreds (or thousands) on Ikea closet systems, Marie Kondo every piece of underwear in your house, or dive into another productivity course. But if you don’t have systems that are tailored to your family’s rhythms and a mindset that supports your role as a mother? 

You’ll always feel you’re behind.

Having the right systems and an easy prayer routine is the investment that makes everything else pay off by (1) creating a home that runs smoothly and (2) allowing you to keep your peace no matter what comes your way. 

This program is for you  if you:

  • Feel overwhelmed by the daily demands of motherhood and are ready to experience more peace and joy.
  • Want to implement simple, sustainable systems that actually work for your family, not someone else’s.
  • Are tired of feeling like you’re constantly busy but not seeing the results you want in your home.
  • Need practical solutions for managing your home that don’t require perfectionism or all-day cleaning sessions.
  • Want to create a peaceful, faith-filled environment for your family that supports your vocation and nurtures your spirit.

Every single Catholic mom wants a home that’s peaceful, joyful, and reflective of the love she pours into her family. 

“I am loving my life more and more as I go through the program.”

As to your Qs

How much time will this take each week? (I’m already so strapped for time!)

I get it. My days are full, too. Each video is less than 20 minutes long (shorter than anything you could watch on Netflix), and the challenges are designed to fit in with what you’re already doing to clean and maintain your home. You already feed your kids and go grocery shopping. You already do laundry. What we’re doing in this challenge will naturally fit in with what you’re already doing.

Not a question, but I kinda feel like I should already have this figured out.

I hear you, and it’s a feeling many moms share. We think we should be able to manage home, family, and work without support or missing a beat. The truth is, motherhood is one of the most demanding and complex vocations there is, and there’s no one-size-fits-all manual for how to do it perfectly.

Mary’s Heart, Martha’s Order isn’t about pointing out what you should already know or do. It’s about giving you practical tools and a faith-centered mindset that make your life easier and more joyful. No one expects you to have it all figured out on your own—this program is here to support you in creating the peaceful, organized home you desire, without the guilt or self-judgment.

Mary and Martha had their moments of struggle, and they had Jesus right there with them. You deserve support too.

How long do I have access?

The content is yours to keep for as long as you’d like! If I update the course, you’ll receive access to the new content as well.

What if I’m already overwhelmed? Learning something new sounds daunting.

The reason you’re overwhelmed is that you haven’t found what works for your family, and you don’t have the mindset tools in place to support you. This challenge will change that. Everything I’ll teach you is designed specifically for busy moms with hectic lives to simplify and get more peace, not add something to your plate.

Will I really be able to keep this up long-term?

I get it—life can be unpredictable, and sticking to new routines can be challenging. But Mary’s Heart, Martha’s Order is designed for sustainability. The systems you’ll learn are flexible, simple, and tailored to your unique family dynamics, making them easy to maintain, even on the busiest days.

Rather than overwhelming you with rigid rules, we focus on building habits that naturally fit into your life. Plus, you’ll have ongoing access to the course materials and our supportive community whenever you need a refresher or encouragement.

You’re not just organizing your home—you’re creating lasting peace and joy that will stay with you long after the program ends.

I’ve tried other organizing programs before, and they didn’t stick. How is this different?

The difference with Mary’s Heart, Martha’s Order is that it’s not just about organizing your home—it’s about transforming your mindset as well. We focus on building sustainable habits that last, supported by a faith-centered mindset that helps you remain calm and at peace, no matter what is happening in your life. You’ll also have my team’s full support and a community of hundred of Catholic moms to keep you encouraged and on track.

Is this really risk free?

Yes! I want you to feel confident that Mary’s Heart, Martha’s Order is the right fit for you, which is why, if you enroll, complete the weekly challenges, and don’t see the value, we will gladly provide a 100% refund within 30 days of your purchase. Simply send me an email at [email protected].

…If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the daily demands of motherhood…

…If you’re struggling to find peace and order in your home…

…If you’re not sure how to balance your responsibilities with the joy and fulfillment you desire…

Then this program is for you!

Mary’s Heart, Martha’s Order is priced far below other courses organization and mindset courses on the market (and below the value it provides!).

If you’ve been searching for a way to bring more peace into your home, this is it. If you’ve been feeling like you’re constantly spinning your wheels, now’s the time to stop.

We can’t wait to welcome you into Mary’s Heart, Martha’s Order!
