Today I’m joined by my friend Katherine McDowell, a fellow homemaker, mother, and our very own in-house librarian who hosts our beloved Homemakers Literary Society. We talk about what it looks like to turn inward as autumn begins: crafting a home of belonging, marking the seasons with the liturgical calendar, and building a culture of literature and story in the home. Katherine’s perspective is rich with faith, heritage, and practical rhythms that make ordinary days sacred.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• How the liturgical calendar shapes family rhythms and traditions.
• Creating a literary home: seasonal picture books, read-alouds, and curating living books.
• Why what we consume shapes the culture of our homes.
• Practical ways to weave books and stories into everyday life.
• Using each new season as a “mini new year” to reset rhythms with hope.

Resources Mentioned:

• The Homemakers Literary Society (discount here)
• Read-Aloud Revival (book lists by age)
• Sally Clarkson & Sarah Clarkson (resources on books and literature in the home)
• Ambleside Online (Charlotte Mason “living books” lists)

Katherine reminds us that every season offers a chance to begin again, a “mini new year” to reset our homes with rhythms of prayer, gratitude, and story. Even one small change like lighting a candle at dinner, starting a family read-aloud, or ending the day with prayer over your children can become a rhythm that steadies the whole house.
