Join me for this Newbie Homemaker Portrait of listener, Jade Brooks. We have a delightful conversation about her growth over the past 2 years of full-time homemaking and how the Lord is teaching her to let go of perfection and focus on the 'why' of homemaking. “Knowing what you’re doing it for helps overcome perfectionism. At the end of the day it’s all for the glory of God.”

We chat about setting and keeping priorities in order, making dinner at 5am, showing hospitality through good food and the importance of getting dressed for the day. Jade also opens up about her recent miscarriage and making space in their hearts and home for two teenage nephews.

Heather has been keeping a home for over a decade and she stays extra busy these days caring for and homeschooling her 3 young children. She has a passion for wellness and the healing power of food. Right now she is mostly fleshing out that passion in her daily homemaking, but she occasionally shares insights and practical ideas on her blog and YouTube channel.

Join me as I chat with Tiffany Harris about 27 years of the ups and downs of homemaking. We talk about lessons God has been teaching her through multiple moves, raising kids and adopting their youngest son, who has been blind from birth, just before he aged out of the adoption program in his native China. Tiffany also shares lots of fun homemaking tips and ideas she employees in her practice of making a home.

Welcome to Season 15! We are chatting with my friend, seasoned homemaker, Kay Aeby. She graciously shares her journey from self-proclaimed "hippy chick" young bride through a very difficult marriage through years of single parenting then remarriage and her current stage of homemaking in retirement. Kay reflects, "It's not my story, it's God's. I’m grateful that I went through what I did because that helps me to appreciate what I have today…because I see where God delivered me. He didn’t have to, but He loved me so much that He did.”

Today I am bringing you the very first Single Homemaker Portrait on The Art of Home. "Can a single woman be a homemaker," you may ask? Well, if she has a home, she certainly can be! Of course it will look different than a married homemaker who stays home to care for the house and children full-time. Elizabeth also has the unique experience of living 2 days out of every 6 in a fire station for her job as a paramedic firefighter.  We have a lot to chat about!
