One of the best ways to reduce the overwhelm that can come along with simple, self-sufficient living is to start living more seasonally!  They all kind of go hand in hand.  Join me for this episode to discuss the following:

There are so many benefits of seasonal living that you really should consider working it into your everyday life!

Join me in this episode many myths and misconceptions about simple living and homesteading.  When I talk to people about starting to be more self-sufficient, there are a couple of reasons that I hear time and time again as to why it won't work for them.

Here I address these misconceptions and explain why they should not be holding you back.

In this episode I talk about:

Don't let these hold you back from living a little more homegrown and homemade!

In this episode, I am discussing food freedom and my family's journey to become less dependent on stores and commercial products for our food and instead grow and make our own food.

With food shortages and food prices increasing, more people are looking for ways to take back control over their food to ensure that they are able to provide for their families.  Growing your own food, cooking from scratch, and purchasing from local sources for all of your food needs is more important now than ever.  Today, I talk about how we made it a reality and how we continue to work at it every year.

In this episode, I am going to breakdown self-sufficiency into 4 areas. I call this my "Freedom Framework" because I truly believe that self-sufficiency affords us options in the way we choose to live our life.  In my opinion, freedom is having options and the ability to choose which of those options work best for you and your family.

The 4 areas of this Freedom Framework are Food, Home, Family, Health. Categorizing self-sufficiency skills into these categories really helps me teach them and I have found that it helps people organize them in a way that allows them to actually learn and implement them into their modern life.

Are you prepared for emergencies? What if you had to evacuate your house quickly, do you have everything you needed easily accessible? What if your electric goes out for an extended period of time, what would you do?

I don't like to approach these topics from a place of fear, but instead from a place of resilience and confidence!

In this episode, I speak with Morgan from Rogue Preparedness all about how you can better prepare yourself and your family in the event of an emergency.

Morgan preps in the suburbs with her husband and two daughters. She is the owner and founder of Rogue Preparedness  a website dedicated to emergency preparedness and survival skills.  Also, check out her YouTube Channel where she have some also videos about preparedness.
