You want to make the holidays special, but when you’re living on one income, every grocery run, gift list, and family gathering seems to come with a price tag that tugs a little tighter than last year. 
And yet—you don’t want to cut the joy. You want your home to feel peaceful, festive, and full of meaning, not stress.
In this episode, I’m sharing the practical shifts that have helped our family thrive on one income—especially through the holiday season. From secondhand finds and meal planning to budgeting, DIY projects, and tithing, these are the small, intentional habits that have kept us grounded and grateful.
Because peace in your home isn’t about how much you spend—it’s about how much you trust that God will provide, and how wisely you steward what He’s already given you.
 
Blessings, 
Jynae

65 | Thriving on One Income Through the Holidays—Without Cutting the Joy

***TOP 1.5% GLOBALLY RANKED PODCAST*** Are you a homemaker feeling constantly behind—your home cluttered, your schedule chaotic, and your mind overwhelmed? Maybe you’re stuck in survival mode, spinning your wheels with cleaning routines and organizing hacks that never seem to stick. You crave a calm, peaceful home—but right now, everything just feels heavy. Welcome to Modern Homemaker Mom, the podcast that helps you simplify your homemaking and slow down—so you can spend less time managing your home and more time doing what truly matters. Inside, you’ll find faith-based encouragement and practical strategies rooted in seasonal rhythms, not hustle. From clutter-clearing steps to flexible routines, I’ll guide you in creating systems that actually work for your real life. I’m Jynae Schmid—wife, mom, and homemaker who’s walked this same road. I know the exhaustion of trying to do it all and the guilt of feeling like you’re not doing enough. But I also discovered that homemaking doesn’t have to be perfect to be purposeful. When I began to align my routines with my season of life (and even my cycle!), everything changed. If you’re ready to trade burnout for balance, clutter for calm, and chaos for rhythms that restore—you’re in the right place. Grab that laundry basket and let’s chat.
