Welcome to Episode 116. The Restoration Home Community is about to open for a brand new year of habit-building, connection, and virtue development, all within an incredible community of mothers. Weekly activities will be like speaking something lovely over yourself each day and accountability for time tracking to see where we spend most of our time. 

Jennifer Pepito is the author of Mothering by the Book, Habits for a Sacred Home, and the founder of the Peaceful Press. Flowing through her work is a deep desire to see mothers live with more margin and peace in their lives, deeper reflection in the presence of God, and vision and stamina for creating a sacred, healthy, and holy home.

Welcome to episode 114! Keith Phillips of Heartland Bunkies joins Jennifer Pepito to talk about family vision and work! 

This is challenging but excellent conversation right before Christmas about the role of the patriarchy in modern families, clear leadership, and family mission. There is so much to meditate on and discuss in this episode and we hope it sparks great conversation, thoughtful self-reflection, and leads to greater family mission in the New Year.

Welcome to episode 113 with Jennifer Pepito and special guest Cleere Cherry Reeves of Cleerely Stated.

Cleere and Jennifer talk about declarations, intentional living, creating order, and stewarding the internal atmosphere of our home. This is all about living with margin, ignoring pressures, or could haves or should haves, and prioritising connection over perfection. 

Our minds and emotions depend on our words and the stories we allow ourselves to meditate on. We must change our words and our world to better represent the truth of who God says we are and His goodness in our present situation, and He offers us the gift of change through His grace and healing.

Growing up, we would transition from the regular homeschool schedule during December and move towards crafting, Christmas Cookie exchanges, nature walks, and time reading together as a family. We made clay decorations, popcorn balls, and cranberry garlands. 

The wonderful thing about creativity and a creative Christmas is it isn't age or time-dependent. You can make orange garlands with your adult children, bath salts with your grandkids, and clay ornaments with your children. 

Episode 112 with Emelie and Jennifer is an excellent expose on Pepito's family Christmas, the joys of creativity, and how economical and accessible it can be!

"Children are born persons." Charlotte Mason

Jennifer has been parenting since the 90s, and she and Scott's research and parenting styles have run the gamut over their 7 children and three decades. The one thing consistent from the early days of strict parenting to more permissive parenting is to focus on building character and connection. One thing that was consistent across all those years and styles of parenting. It was their intense love for their children and their enjoyment of each one as a person.

The one thing they learned over all those years is that there is no formula for parenting. Still, there is so much we can learn and be encouraged in.

Amy Nyvall, a coach with Connected Families, joins Jennifer Pepito to talk about parenting through connection and attunement without sacrificing standards. This is one of our longer podcasts because the topic and conversation were just that good. We hope you enjoy episode 111 and walk away with more ideas to connect with your children this season.

Many of my adult friends have an ambivalent relationship with the Christmas season. Why is that? It's often because their mothers were stressed and anxious about achieving a "perfect Christmas." 

In a recent discussion, Diane Boden, the creator of the Minimalist Mom's Podcast, joined Jennifer Pepito to talk about how to create a minimalist Christmas. The focus is on planning, creating meaningful moments for your family, and choosing what brings you joy and connection.

During the holiday season, there are numerous external pressures—from the vast selection of Christmas decorations at stores like Target to expectations from family and the community. It's easy to say yes to everything, buy more than you need, or feel guilty about your actions.

Don't let yourself fall into that trap. Avoid letting the pursuit of the "perfect holiday season" turn you into a frazzled mom. Instead, aim for simplicity so your children aren't left wishing for more relaxed times and a happier mom.
