Life as a Mom is Nonstop — Here’s How AI Can Help

Ever feel like your to-do list is never-ending? Between managing meals, keeping up with housework, and juggling your family’s schedule, it can feel like there’s never enough time in the day.

But what if I told you there was an EASY way to take a little bit (or a lot!) of that mental load off your plate?

What if you had a tool that helped with the repetitive tasks so you could focus on the things that truly matter — like quality time with your family, rest, or even that passion project you’ve been putting off? (oh hellloooo my half-way done quilt! 😅)

In this episode of the Work & Worship Podcast, we’re diving into how AI can help busy moms simplify daily life — without feeling complicated or overwhelming. Whether it’s meal planning, organizing schedules, or streamlining repetitive tasks, AI can be a helpful tool to free up your time and energy.

Listen to the full episode below, and keep reading for practical ways to start using AI in your everyday life!

That’s where ChatGPT comes in.

Now, before you start picturing robots taking over your household (tbh I’m still a little freaked out that we’re living in a time where that is actually HAPPENING!), let’s talk about what AI actually is and how it can work for you and your household — and not replace you.

What is AI and How Can It Help Busy Moms?

AI (artificial intelligence) is essentially smart technology that helps automate tasks, generate ideas, and save a LOOOOOOT of time. It’s already built into so many things we use daily — voice assistants like Alexa, predictive text when you type, and even Netflix recommendations (there’s a reason it’s always recommending the right shows for YOU)!

As busy moms, AI can be a powerful tool to help us streamline everyday tasks like:

✅ Meal Planning in Minutes – Ever stare at your fridge at 5 p.m. with no idea what to make for dinner? AI can generate a full week of meal ideas based on your family’s preferences and even create a grocery list for you

✅ Effortless Travel Planning – When we planned our family trip to Hilton Head, I used AI to map out family-friendly activities, find the best restaurants, and even put together a budget-friendly itinerary in minutes

✅ Chore Organization – AI can help you create a cleaning schedule that actually works for your family’s routine instead of feeling overwhelming

✅ Faith & Family Routines – If you’ve ever struggled with staying consistent in prayer or Bible study, AI can help you create simple plans or reminders to keep your focus on what matters most

The beauty of AI? It’s not about replacing your hard work — it’s about reducing the mental load so you can show up fully for the things only you can do 🙌

How to Start Using ChatGPT to Manage Your Home

I get it — you don’t need one more thing to learn or figure out. That’s why starting small with leveraging AI is KEY.

For me, it began with meal planning. I used to sit down every Sunday night, staring at a blank page, feeling completely uninspired. The first time I used ChatGPT to help me plan out my meals, I had a full week of dinners mapped out in minutes — and not just random meals, but ones my family actually LIKED and was catered to our needs (I tried this for the first time we had to start Whole30 for my daughter’s health… and it was mind-blowing).

So, if you’re feeling hesitant, start with one simple task:

✔ Try using ChatGPT for meal planning this week

✔ Use it to map out a family trip or weekend activities

✔ Have it help you organize your daily routines

And if you want an easy way to dip your toes in? I created a free resource just for you — AI Hacks for Busy Moms. It’s packed with practical examples and simple steps to help you get started without feeling overwhelmed.

Use AI to Make Mom Life Simpler

Mamas, we put so much pressure on ourselves to be everything to everyone. But the truth is, you don’t have to do it all. You just need to focus on what matters most.

AI isn’t about taking away from the heart of motherhood — it’s about giving you the space to breathe, to be present, and to enjoy the moments that matter.

So, if you’ve been feeling stretched thin, take this as your permission slip to get the help you need — even if that help comes in the form of technology!

Try one small step today, and let me know how it goes. You’ve got this. 💛
