Are you tired of feeling like you have to conform to society's expectations? Are you ready to learn how to live an authentic life? If so, this Grounded in Simplicity podcast episode is for you!

In this episode, we help moms shake off the feeling that they need to conform to society's standards. We know it can be difficult to hold boundaries when everyone around you seems to think they know what's best for you, but it's important to remember that you are the only one who knows what's truly best for you.

We also talk about how society often judges women who don't conform to its expectations, and how this can be incredibly discouraging. But don't let the haters get you down! You are living your truth, and that is an admirable thing. Keep doing you, and don't let anyone else tell you what you should or shouldn't be doing.

As a busy mom of three, Danielle knows the importance of finding time to herself. In this episode of the Grounded in Simplicity podcast, she discussed with Bonnie about the book The Four Tendencies. 

From the conversation, there are four personality types: Upholder, Questioner, Obliger, and Rebel. Each personality type has its own strengths and weaknesses. For example, Upholders are great at following rules and meeting deadlines, but they may have a hard time relaxing or taking breaks. Questioners are good at challenging the status quo and thinking critically, but they may have a hard time making decisions. Obligers are good at meeting other people's expectations, but they may have a hard time meeting their own. Rebels are good at thinking outside the box and taking risks, but they may have a hard time following rules or routines. 

Which personality type are you? Listen to the whole podcast episode to better understand which personality matches you.

Today's episode is something that all people who thinks of starting to homestead can relate. This is a relevant topic that most of us can get tips and tricks.

As how Danielle mentioned, anybody can start homesteading because homesteading is more of a lifestyle choice than it is. It's kind of more like a lifestyle or like a mental attitude more than anything else. 

If we think about it, homesteading, in large part is all about food. We are producing food, preserving food. It's one of our core needs. There's a lot of things that we think we need that are really just things that we could actually survive without. But if you don't have food and water, you literally cannot survive. You'd need to know how to prepare that food. And if it comes to water, you didn't know how to purify that water, how to store that water. If you are someone who struggles with boiling water, then that's a great place to start. And just like gardening, if you think just because you killed a few plants that you can't garden, you don't know how to garden, you'll never be able to garden, anything can be taught. Same thing goes for cooking.

Anything that you need to start your homesteading journey can be learned. You just have to have the proper mindset.
