Today my guest, Noell Jett, tells us the story of how she and her family built their own dream home with no experience, and encourages us that we are capable of home renovations, or even building a home, too. Noell and her husband did this with multiple kids by their side, and their story is impressive. Noell brings us encouragement for any "new thing" we'd want to embark on where we may feel like a beginner.

Minimal-ish is a podcast hosted by Desirae Endres about striving to live with less of the things that don't matter, more of what does, and pursuing intention in every area of our everyday lives and motherhood. We'll talk about a realistic version of minimalism, family life, motherhood, work, caring for ourselves, budgeting and intentional finances, and everything in between.

Today I’m bringing you my conversation with special guest Myquillyn Smith where she is talking all about simplified home decor. She’s sharing several realistic tips and tricks from her new book ‘House Rules’, such as how to redecorate or reconfigure a room on a budget, adding layers of “coziness”, or the importance of decluttering a space to make it feel more clean and simple. I was so encouraged by her down-to-earth, walk-with-me approach for any woman who feels like they aren’t a “naturally inclined” home decorator. I know you’ll love this episode as much as I did!

226: Getting Intentional at Home: Series Intro

Today I'm honored to have pastor and author, Max Lucado, as my guest. We talk about his newest children's book, Just In Case You Ever Feel Alone and how we can approach the topic of loneliness with our children (and any other big feeling), help them cope, and stay connected as a family in a time where it is common to feel distracted and disconnected. I love this conversation, the encouragement it brings to parents, and the simple, practical tools that Max brings us.
