A great daily pep talk for Moms
I really love listening to this series. For a while I would listen to it as early as I could in the morning and it was a great way to help energize me for a new day. There is some very good practical and spiritual advice in each of these short and feasible episodes. Really hope Sterling continues this soon because I’m missing my daily pep talks!
Editing to add… Sterling if you are considering starting these daily podcasts again I want to say PLEEEEEEAAAASE do so!!! As a young mother doing the daily battle with little kiddos, hearing your steady voice (often saying exactly what I need to hear) gives me encouragement and a logical thought in the day that I would not get otherwise in the midst of temper tantrums and meltdowns. I know I’m not the only one who feels this way and it’s so comforting to start the day with one of your tidbits of wisdom in the midst of the chaos. Really appreciate what you do!

Bite-size pieces of Catholic goodness to practically apply to daily life. So glad I found this podcast!

Love this podcast!
I recently found this podcast and I am in love with all of the God-filled goodness it has! I consume a lot of Catholic content and this is just so special. I’ve been binge-listening past episodes and taking the ideas to prayer. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with others. This feels like an answered prayer.
The Real Patty Mack
The podcast every Catholic woman needs.
Sterling is a beacon of light in our dark world! She obviously lives what she teaches and has real life examples of how she is navigating motherhood applying the tools she talks about. She works hard to digest a lot of information from both the Catholic world and the modern advances in social sciences philosophies to present practical bits of wisdom for us busy and often tired moms to understand and apply to our own lives. Her voice is gentle, kind, encouraging, and intelligent- she reflects the voice of the Lord she hears in her own prayer life, and is full of the Holy Spirit. It’s always invigorating to listen to, and sometimes has the gentle push we need to live up to our high calling as servants of the true King. I’ve listened to Sterling for almost 8 years and I still can’t get enough of her ever new perspectives that are always grounded in the basics of Gospel teaching. Highly recommend, 10/10 💯etc.. 💗

Great podcast for Catholic moms
Absolutely love Sterling and her little daily thoughts on mom life. The Lent 2024 series with St. Faustina’s diary is amazing!!!! I absolutely love it! I also love that it’s daily and short, just the little comfort, solidarity, and hope a Catholic mom needs day to day!

Highly recommend
I went searching for a podcast for my book club to listen to during advent together and am so glad that I found this one. After a few days of listening I could already notice a positive change in how I was living each day with more peace and calm. I highly recommend giving this podcast a try either on your own or to discuss together with a group.

Life Changing
This is an excellent podcast that is consistently at the top of my playlist, right up there with Father Mike Schmitz and Bishop Barron. What I love about this podcast is it takes the WHAT of Fr. Mike and Bishop Barron, i.e. the truths and theology of our faith and shows me HOW to live that out. For example, I know I want to be more patient with my kids, more appreciative of my husband, more grateful for my life. But I had no idea HOW to do that, and just telling myself over and over to be patient and shaming myself for the times I’m impatient was not working. Enter Sterling and her program. Now I know how to be more patient, more appreciative, and more joyful.
Thank you Sterling for sharing your gifts with us. You have changed my life and my faith and made them both richer and more vibrant. You have brought noticeable joy to my life, and by extension, my kids and husband’s lives.

Like hearing the gentle voice of Jesus
I love this daily podcast so much! Sterling is so kind and loving—always beginning with a peaceful prayer and then delivering such powerful and practical info. I love everything Catholic Mom Calm is producing and this podcast is no different!

Thank you!
The work God is doing through Sterling is changing my life, my marriage, my relationship with my children. I never could have imagined such a change so quickly. I can’t wait to see what the future brings. Thank you for your dedication, Sterling, and for sharing all you’ve learned!

Hope, joy and peace among chaos
I took a kid free road trip and listened to Sterling the whole three hour drive. She kept me awake and got me to Seattle safely. I couldn’t turn off the podcast because listening to her gave me so much hope, joy and peace to go home and mom hard in my chaotic life full of noisy and wild little boys. Even just listening to her voice is calming. I picked and chose which topics to listen to but at times I’d let them play randomly and I found that I could relate to every single message Sterling had and her advice is easy to follow, small changes that can make a lasting, positive impact on my family. I’m a huge fan! Thank you Sterling for the sacrifices you make to share your life coaching knowledge with others.

Love love love!
I love what Sterling has to share! Though I enjoy her longer podcasts as well, this quick, daily show is the perfect length for those quick bursts of time you get throughout the day- whether in the car, doing your makeup or taking a hot second to enjoy a cup of coffee! I love it!

Sterling is amazing.
I am a listener from way back in the Coffee & Pearls days. Sterling is such a gift to Catholic women. She is so in tune with what God wants us to hear and know about ourselves. Through listening to her, I feel like the veil over “what is God trying to teach me?” is lifted a little bit, and she somehow always manages to blend spiritual insights with extremely practical application. I highly recommend listening (and joining Masters)!

Encouragement for Catholic Moms
I can’t recommend enough the Masters Program that Sterling runs. I have been part of it about a year. Life coaching tools are life changing. I recently found this once a day podcast and am loving it too!

Solid Advice
I always appreciate Sterlings perspective and bite size advice. The Holy Spirit dwells loudly within her! Definitely worth a listen.

Perfect for busy moms!
Exactly what I need for my busy working mom life! Short pieces of amazing advice and guidance that always feels personalized. I am a Catholic working mom of 5 with ADHD and the short episodes are absolutely perfect! I always look forward listening!
ChelseaB,NP
Perfect short food for thought
Love it! Sometimes I’m hesitant to push play on a long podcast because it feels like such an investment of time, but usually when I turn this on I end up listening to five episodes in a row because they are SO GOOD! Short, distilled reminders of all the mindset work I’ve already been doing in Masters (paid program, highly recommend!!) Sterling is such a kindred spirit and could listen to her talk forever <3

I love these short, inspiring episodes! A perfect little shot in the arm to help me show up a little better every day. (Homeschooling mom of 5 kids under age 8)

Love the daily!!
I have been a listener to Sterlings Made for Greatness weekly podcast for about a year. I am loving the daily podcast and actionable items to focus on each day. My kids have even commented on how much happier I seem. Thank you Sterling. (Catholic Mom of 4 and homeschooler)

An answered prayer
Sterling is amazing. I’ve learned so much from her through her various platforms and have definitely grown closer to God through that. The evening before this podcast launched, I said a prayer asking God to make me a woman filled with the Holy Spirit and bring me closer to Him in that way. And the next day, this podcast launched. In listening to the first episode, I knew this podcast was an answer to that prayer. I’m so excited to learn and grow closer to God through it. So thank you Sterling for saying yes to God so He could answer my prayer in this way.

Filled with the Holy Spirit
For the last 4 years, I’ve followed Sterling and felt Jesus and the Holy Spirit work through her. I’m so thankful for this podcast and all Sterling’s podcasts, and love all that she does for the Catholic mom community. Sterling, you are incredible, and I pray you know every day the difference you’re making in my life and the lives of so many other Catholic women.

Sterling is awesome!!
Sterling loves Jesus and shares boldly what she learns along the way. We all could benefit from more people in our lives who strive for holiness everyday and challenge us to do the same!
