Today's conversation is with my "real life" friend, Mia DiMare! Mia and her family live in Florida where her husband attends seminary and she stays at home raising her two toddlers. In this episode, you'll hear Mia share her love for English interiors and how she is creating a beautiful home one thrift store at a time. Going deeper, she reflects on the struggles of building community at church in the early days of marriage, as well as what life looks like in their current season with her husband Stephen in seminary. Mia then shares how God led her to ultimately give up her career as a traveling wedding photographer in order to stay at home with her kids and support her husband in this current season. I'm personally grateful for Mia's friendship and wisdom, and I'm honored to share her story and introduce her to you!

This week's conversation is with returning guest Alexandria Smith! Alex is a wife and mother to four living on a farm in South Carolina. In today's episode, I pick Alex's brain on a number of things, including what it looks like to establish rhythms as a family, how to feed our families well, and how she approaches clothing her children, especially since she has both boys and girls. We also touch on how she spends time with Jesus throughout the day as a homeschooling mother to four. This episode is very practical, and I hope that the tips and stories she shares will leave you feeling inspired to try something new in your home!

Welcome back to the podcast, friends! We are kicking off season four with the sweet Grace Frank. Grace is a wife and mom living in Texas. In our conversation, Grace shares how she and her husband Forrest met and navigated a long-distance relationship. She also shares what it was like to have their wedding derailed by COVID, an experience I know many listeners can relate to. Grace then walks us through her hormonal healing journey, which ultimately required releasing control and surrendering to Christ. Finally, she shares the story of her home birth with her son, Bodie. Talking with Grace felt like talking with an old friend. I can't wait for you to listen!

We're back this week for part two of my conversation with the lovely Michelle Garrels! Michelle has become my mentor and a dear friend over the last year. She and her family of seven live in Michigan on their small farm, homeschooling and cultivating beauty with their hands. Today in part two, Michelle and I discuss how to discern what is life-giving, knowing how and when to surrender, and how to parse out the difference between loving beauty with Jesus' call to reject the world. I'm so grateful for Michelle's heart, for her wisdom, and for her willingness to share both with us. Be sure to listen to part one of our conversation on episode 58, where we chat about her journey growing flowers and how we can joyfully embrace limitations with the help of the Holy Spirit.
Listen to more of Michelle on episodes 32, 33, and 58.

This week's episode is a bit different, because I am on the other side of the mic! I'm sharing a conversation I had with Kennady Davis, host of the MOM Chats podcast, for her show, which aired back in February. I got to share all about my journey switching from an iPhone to a Light Phone. I also reflect on misconceptions I had when entering motherhood, and what my first year was like mothering two under two. I'm grateful that Kennady asked me to be a guest on her podcast and that I get to share our conversation with you!
