    Timely and important
    Strengthening marriage and families… is there a more important and timely mission we should all strive for? I appreciate Arlene’s insights. And I absolutely love and think brilliant that she ends every episode that we don’t need to come from a happy home to create one and that we, too, can have a happy home. Amen, amen!
  • @kimstewinspired
    Help for those teen years
    As a mom of two boys, I’ve loved listening to Arlene and her guests share encouragement as I don’t feel like my home is always a happy one. #thestruggleisreal. I highly recommend you tune in, especially her episodes on anger and rebellious teens. Oh my! Kim Stewart | Book Marketing Mania for Christian Authors
  • Ms. Davida
    Authentic
    Arlene has excellent content; fantastic messages of hope. Perfection is not the goal. There are no boney fingers pointed at our sternum pointing out our parenting flaws. Genuine, authentic guests with messages of encouragement. “You don't have to come from a happy home, to create one.” All with God ‘s help.

    A podcast that every parent needs to listen to
    Screen free is possible! Arlene is very motivating and inspirational having raised kids to the teen years without a smart phone. She and her guests share so many nuggets of wisdom that I have replayed episodes many times to fully let the information sink in! A mom of little ones , I pray that I will be able to apply what I’ve learned. God bless you!

    Full of Wisdom
    Arlene shares her God-given wisdom in this informative podcast, and her books are excellent as well. I love how she addresses real-life situations and topics offering, practical solutions. She is so easy to listen to, and I highly recommend this podcast!
  • Syd214
    LOVE this podcast.
    This podcast is a God send. I’m a new mom to a 10 month old and I feel like I’ve completely lost who I am. Not only in motherhood, but in life. This podcast has helped me so much, and I found it less than a week ago. Thank you so much for this podcast, Arlene.

    Video games
    These two episodes with Melanie Hempe are going to be life-changing for our family. I am a little terrified to think of removing video games from my almost 13-yr old boy’s life. But the signs of addiction are there and he is so grumpy!! I’m seeing his sweet-side less and less. And my 9 yr old boy gets “bored” as soon as he gets off his iPod. Our 11 yr old daughter won’t care about this much. In fact, she’ll probably rejoice as she’ll have her brothers back to play with!! Thank you! I am excited and scared for this journey. But I can see and feel that it is the best thing for our family!
  • Val Woerner
    Quick & Valuable!
    I’m amazed at what great content Arlene is able to pack into her episodes! I love that they are on the shorter side but I still walk away so inspired.
  • Kelhaw
    Kendra Smiley podcast so encouraging and funny
    Great podcast! Moms need encouragement. To hear from a seasoned mom and grandmother all the better. Good stuff!!!
  • MrSpiffy
    I like Arlene
    Arlene seems like a warm and friendly friend. She has great advice that is practical.
  • MNB in Pennsylvania
    Very encouraging. Good reminders.
    I really enjoy these podcasts and get a lot out of them. I've been married for 13 and have two young children. We have a good marriage but I have found myself (against my best intentions) letting the kids sap all my energy and attention and my husband has been on the backburner. I'm trying to make an effort to make him number one again. I really appreciate the insight Arlene sharse, and the practical suggestions.

    Inspirational!
    I enjoy the podcasts on marriage, weight loss and organization! Very motivational in my stage of life after having twins a year ago!
  • Dbntx
    GREAT podcast!
    Pleasantly surprised with how good & informative her podcasts are. I'm a fan!
  • BlondeMommy34
    Suuuuper helpful -- bye bye, pounds!
    Arlene is very natural in her delivery, making us who listen very comfortable with a tough battle against our waistline. Great advice & exercises. Thanks, and keep it up!!!!!

    Great podcast, great results
    After miscarrying, I made the decision to lose weight before my next pregnancy. I was at the highest weight of my life. I sought out tools to help me and found the Losing Weight After Baby podcast. With Arlene's advice, I began with mini-goals, but my biggest goal was to lose 50 pounds by the due date of my pregnancy that ended in miscarriage. Because of the positive influence and practical advice from this podcast, I met that goal. Then a couple months later I exceeded that goal and had lost a total of 60 pounds. And now I'm pregnant, and happy with the lifestyle changes I have made. I know through the help of this podcast, I've made some of the best decisions I can for my future family. Thank you, Arlene!
  • Karmin mom of one
    Love it
    It's wonderful! I even went back to get all the old episodes. Love Arline and her positive words!
  • cori w
    Arlene is awesome!
    This podcast is great. Arlene is great at motivating and does it in a unpreachy way. It's been 2 1/2 years since my baby was born and Arlene has helped me start getting healthy and fit! She has great tips for staying motivated and keeping your head in the game. Her podcasts are well produced and easy to listen to. Thank you Arlene!

    Hopeful and Helpful Motivation
    Dear Arlene, I stumbled across your podcast about 6 weeks ago. I love it. I’m desperately trying to lose my baby weight from my second baby and can’t budge a pound. I’ve even gained ten pounds since I had her. After Kaeden Grace (our first) and before Rory Elizabeth (our second) weight was not an issue. I was into rock climbing, mountain biking, hiking, and walking. When I was pregnant with Rory, I didn’t exercise at all since I was so morning sick all the time. Now it’s caught up with me. However, listening to your podcast and your encouragement have given me hope. Thank you. Much Peace, Gwenney Babcock

    Awesome
    She is so encouraging and uplifting. She also has a ton of good ideas and she knows where I am coming from.

    Arlene is inspirational!
    Arlene Pellicane's weekly podcast on iTunes is both inspirational and informative. I am a busy mother of two young children, and I have truly benefitted from Arlene's podcast. Arlene's positiveness and genuineness come through each week as she shares tried and true advice and tips on everything from getting your children to eat those veggies to nurturing your relationship with your husband. I have been most inspired by Arlene's positive outlook on life and the specific strategies she gives for reaching your goals in life whether it be for your health or children. Arlene instructs her listeners to set specific goals with specific plans and strategies to reach them, and she inspires listeners to do so. These podcasts do not take much of your time each day, and they are so worth the time. I can listen to them when my children are napping and still have time for other activities. Mothers everywhere should take time for themselves and listen to Arlene Pellicane's weekly podcast on iTunes. My life has been enriched by Arlene and her weekly podcasts.
  • Amanda.B.
    Fantastic (and REALISTIC!)
    Arlene gets an A+ in "Losing Weight After Baby." She is professional, articulate, interesting and most importantly informative! She gives advice that most people would pay a lot of money for! I was skeptical at first, considering there are a lot of so-so podcasts on this same topic, but Arlenes is completely unique and provides a fresh perspective. ANY woman who wants to lose weight the smart and effective way should tune in. Five stars all the way!

    When you don't know how to tell the wife...
    My wife had our son three months ago. She's lost a good amount of weight on her own, but has hit the wall. Although we BOTH want the extra pounds gone, "coaching" her myself has serious health risks (for me!). Now I've found her coach. I played an episode while she was nursing, and she commented, "she has a great voice." TRANSLATION: "Alright, I get your point. I'd listen to this lady over you any day." Good show! Four stars (you'll get the fifth when she reaches her target weight).
  • Precision JP
    Encouraging & Practical
    Arlene comes along side the busy mom and helps her lose weight.
