About This Podcast

I'm Janet Quinlan, a Catholic life coach, and this is Finding Joy in Motherhood - a podcast for women who want peace and joy in their marriage and motherhood. 

I teach you how to teach your children virtues (good habits) so they are well-behaved, listen to you the first time, and are truly happy.


I'm a former elementary school teacher and homeschooler, a wife of 42 years, mother of 7, and "Grandma Jan" to 26 going on 27 grandchildren!
Check out how I can teach you how to parent your children so they truly bring you joy at janetquinlan.com
