    Ep 29. 3 Mental Triggers to Make Homesteading Easier Apr 02, 2024
    Show notes

    Being a wife and/or mama is AMAZING, but it can be a LOT. There are so many things on our plates. It got me thinking about ways I simplify remembering to do ALL THE THINGS.

    I am not perfect at this, but there are three specific triggers in my daily life that remind me to do other things that are easier to forget. These triggers have made a HUGE difference in my life, and I think you can create some in your routines to do the same (and it's actually pretty easy!).

    Ep 28. The Raw Truth: My Milk Journey and How Herdshare Realigned my Mindset Mar 29, 2024
    Show notes

    In this episode, I dive into a crucial turning point in my homesteading life – the moment I finally found a raw milk herdshare near me. This wasn't just about choosing healthier milk; it was about taking ownership of my choices and realigning with my core values.

    🌿 Why Raw Milk? Raw milk isn't just milk. It's a symbol of balance and natural wellness, packed with more amino acids, antimicrobials, vitamins, minerals, and fatty acids than its pasteurized counterpart. It’s especially beneficial for those dealing with lactose intolerance, asthma, and autoimmune conditions.

    But this journey is more than just about milk. It's about making conscious choices that resonate with our lifestyle and beliefs.

    Like always, I don't think that MY choice is necessarily the right choice for YOU! But there are SO many great options to uplevel your dairy game if you are still buying conventional milk.

    🌱 Every step towards a more informed choice is a step towards better health and alignment. It’s all about embracing those steady, positive incremental changes.

    Ep 26. Can you be a homesteader and a minimalist? 5 Ways I Got Minimalism All Wrong Mar 22, 2024
    Show notes

    Spring cleaning is ALL the rage on the interwebs, and there are a few buzzwords that go around this time of year. Mainly, "minimalism." Don't run away yet! I know... most of us homesteady types are NOT here for minimalism.

    But hear me out, I think minimalism has a few principles we can apply to better our homestead lives (and no, not that cold, gray aesthetic).

    Check out 5 mistakes I made when I thought I had to be a minimalist and how we can all learn a few minimalist values to help reach our 2024 goals!

    Ep 22. Non-Toxic Cleaning Routine without Essential Oils Mar 08, 2024
    Show notes

    I am feeling the clean and declutter bug. Big time. I think that is totally normal for this time of year. More and more people move toward non-toxic cleaners every year, and I wanted to give you my favorite recipes (without essential oils... well... sometimes) in case you are looking to do the same in your own homestead.

    I have a complicated relationship with essential oils that are so beloved by the crunchy community. Dive on into this episode to learn why I am not in love with them, and what I use instead!

    HOMEWORK: Start infusing some white vinegar!

    Ep 21. How I Did All of My Homestead Tasks in 45 Minutes Mar 05, 2024
    Show notes

    Discover how to efficiently tackle your homestead tasks! Today, I'm chatting about how I managed all my homestead tasks in just 45 minutes by using the critical path method.

    Streamlining tasks to overcome the chaos of jumping from one task to another can help boost our productivity while actually making us feel LESS busy. Transitioning from the strict structure of academia to the flexibility of homesteading led me to feel a little bit lost without structure in my days. I found methods that actually work to increase my productivity, make me less busy, but still remain flexible.

    Implementation for Larger Projects:

    1. List project activities.
    2. Identify dependencies.
    3. Create a critical path diagram.
    4. Calculate the duration of each activity.
    5. Determine the overall timeline following the critical path.
