In this episode, we’re digging into the Trad Wife movement — and unpacking what it means for modern homemaking.

The term “Trad Wife” has been gaining attention online as a social media trend that’s as polarizing as it is popular. The trend blends of homemaking, vintage aesthetics, Christian values, and traditional gender roles. But beneath the surface of flowery pioneer dresses and sourdough starters lie deeper questions about identity, femininity, autonomy, and what it really means to create a life centered around home, family and faith.

This episode is for you if you’ve ever:

• Felt intrigued or unsettled by Trad Wife influencers

• Wondered what the appeal is — and what might be missing from the conversation

• Longed for a version of homemaking that honors tradition without losing your sense of self

• Questioned how values, identity, and online culture intersect in today’s idea of womanhood and homemaking
  

We’ll explore:

• What the Trad Wife trend gets right — and where it gets complicated

• Why nuance and context matter in conversations about home and womanhood

• The difference between romanticizing the past and reclaiming values for the future

• How to define homemaking and femininity on your own terms

• Why asking deeper questions about tradition can lead to more authenticity, not less
  

Whether you feel curious, conflicted, or completely unsure, this conversation is an open invitation to look beneath the surface — and to explore what it truly means to be a woman creating home today.

Let’s unpack the trend, hold space for nuance, and reimagine what’s possible… together.
