  • 38 | Unearthing Joy w/ Celeste Charles
    Nov 20 2023

    The Unsupervised Mom™️ is a weekly podcast for the everyday, Christian, single mom, who desires to navigate motherhood, God's way.

    The holidays are upon us. Closing out the year in excellence is a buzz. The practice of goal setting, at the onset of the new year, is also right around the corner and amidst the busyness that is life, seasonal depression is very real for many. Joy is often challenged in this season although it is season to be jolly.

    In this episode, special guest Celeste Charles discusses how to unearth (discover and investigate) joy amidst the juggle of life and motherhood. She shares abundant wisdom around the ramifications of displacing joy and how a true ownership of joy has a long-term influence on our ability to parent well.

    Celeste Charles wears a lot of different hats: entrepreneur, friend, executive administrator, wife, worship leader, creative, Christian, and last but certainly not least - mother. She has two joyful boys, is a wife of ten plus years, and an executive administrator. After graduating from NYU in 2010 with a BS in Communications Studies she landed a position in healthcare administration which was the start of a 12+ year journey that has left her with a plethora of administrative experience in the fields of healthcare, tourism, entertainment, faith-based nonprofit as well as in event coordination & project management. Today, Celeste is the Founder & CEO of Decent Order Virtual Assistance LLC where she serves as the lead VA. She also coaches and trains aspiring virtual assistants.
