Today, I'm diving into a topic close to my heart: homesteading as a mom. As a homesteading coach and a mother myself, I understand the unique challenges and rewards of juggling homesteading aspirations with the responsibilities of raising children, especially little ones. Here's what I've learned and want to share with you:
- Finding Balance: Being a mom and a homesteader means constantly balancing our desire to give our children the best with the demands of tending to our homestead. It's essential to avoid overcommitting and prioritize what truly matters for our family's well-being.
- Embracing Sustainability: While homesteading offers fantastic opportunities for our kids, it's crucial to approach it sustainably. I've learned the hard way that pacing ourselves and focusing on activities that are manageable and sustainable is key to long-term success.
Building a supportive homesteading community can make all the difference. Whether it's swapping tips or lending a hand, having others who understand the journey can be invaluable. And let's not forget the importance of self-compassion. As moms, we need to forgive ourselves for mistakes, prioritize our own well-being, and set goals that align with our values and family needs. By doing so, we can create a homesteading lifestyle that enriches both our lives and those of our children.

Gardening tends to be one of the very first skills learned by new homesteaders. And I think it’s fantastic. Some people seem to intuitively know what to do as soon as they start. Other’s struggle to get seedlings to grow and stay alive and take on the belief they have a black thumb and growing is just hard for them.  If you are one of those black thumb people I’m going to help you in today’s episode by giving you some green thumb tips.
