podcaster behind the Prepared Enough podcast for mamas.
welcome, my friend.
I’m Natasha Mila — Christian, wife, mom x4, former elementary teacher, & creator behind this space.
Each of us have a unique story of motherhood. Each of us have trials others will never fully understand. This space is designed to be welcoming, unthreatening, and approachable. I hope you feel welcome to let your guard down in order to take in the information and really let it help you in your journey. This space is not meant to tell you exactly what to do, but to encourage you with ideas to take and make your own.
Motherhood is a wild ride. It is our duty to do it as well as we can. And since you’re here, I am guessing that is exactly what you are set out to do. I’m right there with you — trying my best and laughing through the rest.

For mama who wants to manage motherhood well and create a home where her family can thrive.
In this podcast—
We look at designing kid spaces in our homes so our homes work better in our seasons of life. We look at habits and routines that make mothering a bit easier.
Once a month, we release a free episode on apple podcasts and on substack. The second episode each month is exclusive to paid members on substack.

Try a simpler motherhood—do your best and laugh through the rest.
To get to know this Wisconsin mom a little better, here is an incomplete list of things I love:
Jesus. My husband. My kids. Dance parties. Singing terribly off-key to made up lyrics in my kitchen.
Learning. Satire. Coffee. Tea. Pretty mugs. Audiobooks.
Decluttering. Organizing.
Sunshine. Campfires (and s’mores, duh). The beach.
Small towns. Vast landscapes. Small houses. Big stories.
The quiet. The mornings. Poetry. Photography.
TV shows > movies (with ice cream).
Being miles from civilization with a backpack full of gear.
Neature.
And a good laugh.
My qualifications for sharing on the internet: I’m human. I don’t feel entitled to have listeners / readers. But I do feel entitled to share in hopes of bettering the life of someone like you!
Random ‘official’ accolades (for those who like to see this small piece of the puzzle): I’m an ex-teacher with my masters in education and a continued passion for childhood development and learning. My undergrad degree was a double major in zoology and child development/family studies (from UW Madison GO BADGERS!).
Fun fact: I used to want to travel and save the elephants with my zoology degree that taught me nothing about elephants. Instead, we decided to have a litter of kids and chickens. Maybe one day I’ll work with an elephant or two. Never say never right?
