Summary

For those in the crunchy community, there is more noise than ever about the dangers around us and the way things should be done. While navigating her own journey of health and wellness, Emily began to see the humor in this lifestyle. In this conversation, we chat about how Emily got started sharing comedy on the internet to bring levity to what can be stressful. We also dive into what it looks like to maintain balance in this journey– balance in our minds, in our children, in our family relationships, in our social interactions, and more. This episode is a must-listen!

0:00.0	In the crunchy community, sometimes we get so fixated on making the right choices that we don't think about relationships and how we communicate with other people.
0:13.0	Family dynamics and relationships to me, that is so much more important than the food we consume.
0:18.7	You just have to get your priorities straight.
0:21.1	And I think that gets out of balance whenever you're trying to be perfect.
0:26.3	Because not everybody has the same priorities.
0:29.2	My name is Lisa, mother of eight, and creator of the blog and YouTube channel Farmhouse
0:34.7	On Boone.

1:34.0	sometimes these things can go to extremes. It can be overwhelming. It can be depressing and difficult
1:40.0	to try to figure out in what ways am I going to damage my children's future health? What things
1:47.0	can I let go? What things are things I simply must do? We're going to talk about all of this in today's
