Summary
Today I'm sharing a throwback of one of the most popular coaching calls from inside my Pioneering Today Academy: "How to Get It All Done on the Homestead." I wanted to bring this one back because figuring out how to manage your time and energy on the homestead is something we all struggle with.
In this episode, I'll show you how to break down big projects like canning peaches or putting up the harvest into smaller, doable steps that actually fit your daily life. No more marathon canning days or feeling completely overwhelmed. Instead, you'll learn how to create rhythms and routines that make your homestead more enjoyable and sustainable.
If you've ever felt like there just aren't enough hours in the day, this episode is for you. Let's jump in.
