That’s why today, I am really excited to share my conversation with my guest, Shan, and dive into how we can let some things go and reclaim joy in our motherhood. I know our discussion really inspired me to look at motherhood through a different lens, and I hope that you find it meaningful too.

I think there are so many of us that feel drawn to the homesteading lifestyle, and we might question, is this what God is really calling me to? Is homesteading actually biblical? What is God’s design for food, for our health, and how do all those things mesh together? Today we are going to be taking a look at how the many aspects of homesteading can be honoring to God, improve our health, and ultimately follow God’s design for how he created people to live. And as we dive into God’s word today, I really hope this conversation inspires you that what you are doing is for the glory of God.
I hope this episode encourages you to glorify God through homesteading and maybe even shows you some areas that you can press in a little deeper to Him. Thanks for joining me!

But, after a year now, I’ve learned some tricks for how you can make sourdough consistently, in a way that works for your family, no matter how busy you are. So if you are new to sourdough or are struggling to keep up with baking for your family, listen in.
