About this listen

***TOP 3% GLOBALLY RANKED PODCAST***

You give your all to your family every day, so finding time for yourself sounds impossible.
You’ve tried to carve out space to be creative or recharge, but something always pulls your attention away.
You want something that’s calming, meaningful, and fun, but not one more thing to manage.
You’ve even wondered if there’s a way to bring your faith into it, but don’t know where to start.

Hi, I’m Joanna. When I first became a stay-at-home mom with two little ones under two, my world revolved around taking care of my family. Leaving little room for my own needs. Life felt repetitive and dull. Even though the house was cleaned, I felt bored and unfulfilled.
That shifted when learning Calligraphy changed my life! This art brought calm to my mind, beauty to my days, and a fresh sense of joy and purpose. It became a creative and productive outlet that gave me something to look forward to, and a path for personal growth.

I want to share with you the soul fulfillment of writing beautiful letters.

In this podcast, you’ll:
*Learn how to make time for Calligraphy in your busy day
*Discover the many emotional and mental benefits of this art
*Get a clear, simple plan to learn Calligraphy quickly and effectively
*Be inspired by scripture and the Holy Spirit to focus your mind on what is good and lovely
*Receive guidance on the tools and next steps to take on your journey
*Connect with Calligrafriends and find accountability in a supportive community

    Prepare to take notes because in this episode we'll talk about the first time saving steps you need to take to start your Calligraphy business in a way that doesn't produce burnout and the mindset shifts you need. We give our opinions on when you're ready to start and inspiration and next step encouragement.

    Prosperously, Joanna

    Hey Mama!

    In this episode we are reflecting on this year. What we love about our Calligraphy practice and what needs to be improved. This episode is a replay from episode 39. Calligraphy is all about going inwards and slowing down. Let's take the time to reflect on one of the top episodes of this podcast and reflect on what we can continue to learn from it.

  • 81 | Finish Your First Long Calligraphy Piece When You’re Constantly Interrupted And Afraid To Mess It Up (Complete Guide To Calligraphy Series)
    Dec 15 2025

    Hey Mama!

    You started a longer calligraphy piece : a quote, a prayer, or a meaningful passage but then felt your stomach drop?

    Even if you can do calligraphy, long pieces can feel nerve-racking. One mistake feels like it could ruin everything. Add in constant interruptions, and it’s no wonder so many moms stop before they really begin.

    In this episode, I’m walking you through a gentle, mom-friendly way to create long calligraphy pieces, even when your time is broken and your focus isn’t perfect.

    If you’ve been avoiding longer pieces because they feel stressful or intimidating, this episode will help you move forward with more confidence and peace.

    With Grace, Joanna
