Simple Farmhouse Life

228. Q&A with my sisters, Laura & Andrea: our family of entrepreneurs, self-care as busy moms, navigating overwhelm in homemaking, and more!

Listen Later

I asked who you all wanted to hear from on the podcast, and you answered with a resounding vote for my sisters!  I am excited to sit down with Laura and Andrea and dive into the questions my community sent in.  We chat about the similarities and differences between how we each approach things like homemaking, self-care, business, birth, and more.  We answer common questions including why we have large families, how we make it through tough stages of pregnancy, and how we were raised.  We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did!

In this episode, we cover:

  • How our upbringing set us all on an entrepreneurial path

  • What makes our family relationships strong into adulthood

  • Why do we have large families?

  • Our working theory on why we have so many sons in a row

  • Thoughts on raising girls and fostering sister relationships

  • Our favorite things about motherhood

  • Different ways we each approach self-care

  • Andrea’s birth story as a first-time mom

  • Why all three of us love the Bradley method for birth

  • How we make it through the difficult stages of pregnancy

  • In what ways do we run our households similarly or differently?

  • Do we compare ourselves to one another?

  • How we navigate overwhelm in homemaking
