Summary

I talk often on this podcast about the beauty of homemaking, but there are certainly times when we can fall into a slump as homemakers. I’m joined by two Mennonite homemakers in this episode, Megan and Jayna, to discuss what we love about homemaking, what is challenging, and how we navigate the difficult seasons of this worthy calling. If you could use fresh ideas and inspiration to continue creating beauty and comfort in your home, join us for this conversation!

In this episode, we cover:

How being raised Mennonite has given Megan and Jayna a unique perspective on homemaking
Making it through the mundane and challenging parts of homemaking and motherhood
Troubleshooting pain points in your routine and implementing systems to solve these issues
Strategies to get yourself out of a homemaking funk
Ideas for structuring and scheduling your days as a mother
Adding variety to your day without derailing your routine
Knowing when it’s time to stop getting advice from others and get started in a way that works for you
