In this solo Q&A episode, I’m diving into your most-asked questions about motherhood, homemaking, and our new farmhouse build. From figuring out how to prioritize marriage when you have little ones, to managing clutter and paper piles, to designing a kitchen that actually works for a real family—I’m sharing what’s working (and what’s not) in our home right now. I also cover topics like breastfeeding while pregnant, sourdough fermentation timing, pantry organization, and how we’re thinking through long-term homesteading plans. If you're navigating the beautiful chaos of family life while trying to live intentionally, this episode is for you. In this episode, we cover: Navigating weddings and events while co-sleeping and breastfeeding a baby or toddler Normalizing having a great marriage with less “perfect” marriage moments in busy seasons How to have a relaxing in-home date night and why it might actually be better Kitchen and pantry flow: am I worried it will be inconvenient to keep the fridge inside the pantry? Design uncertainty and the challenge of visualizing space before living in it Listener tip: what two products every mom should have on hand for allergic reactions Fermenting water kefir safely without explosions Plans to plant fruit trees and long-term property development goals How I avoid countertop clutter and what we do with important documents to keep them from piling up Naturally weaning a toddler when I become pregnant with the next child Why I am choosing old-house charm even if it's not always the most practical or convenient Is it better to long ferment sourdough bread with a small amount of starter?
