Summary

Hey, y'all! Join me for episode 49 of the Roots and Refuge Podcast.

In todays podcast I’m speaking specifically to the homemakers, stay at home moms, and all of you raising your children and balancing life, who might feel overwhelmed or exhausted.

I’m opening up about both the struggles and the joys I’ve experienced in my own journey of motherhood and homemaking, as well as the experiences and lessons I’ve learned over the years that have helped me really become intentional about my heart towards raising my children and keeping my home.

Thanks so much for listening. If you’d like to join our Patreon page, you can get early access to all our podcast episodes and monthly live Q&As with Miah and me (including past lives). Visit our Patreon Page to learn more and check out past episodes of the podcast on the website.

0:00.0	Hey guys, what's up? Welcome back to the Reuter Refuge podcast. My name is Jessica Sowers, and I am your host. My friends call me Jess, and I hope you will too. And here on my podcast, we talk about all things homesteading, growing food, by raising animals, growing a garden, preserving that food, preparing it,
0:21.7	enjoying it, sharing it, as well as just trying to live a little more mindfully in relationship
0:26.2	with each other and with the earth. I do post new podcast recipes, episodes every Wednesday.
0:33.9	I've been posting a lot of recipes lately too, but not here. Do podcast episodes every
0:38.5	Wednesday. And on our Patreon, our patrons actually get the podcast a week early. So there's always
0:44.7	an extra podcast there. And patrons also get a monthly live Q&A that they get to directly chat with
0:50.7	Jeremiah and I through that live Q&A that's private.
0:54.5	It's nice because it's a smaller audience and we can really like let loose and chat.
0:58.7	We usually do about 90 minutes.

1:19.9	Today's topic is actually for a very specific audience, though I think probably anybody could learn and glean from this.
1:26.2	And I'm sure some of you would definitely have things to add if we could open this up to a conversation.
1:31.7	Today, I want to talk to the homemaker a little bit about what that means.
1:38.6	I just had my birthday a couple days ago. I turned 38, and last month, my my son Jackson the boy who made me a mama turned
1:46.9	18 so if you do the math there I was I was 19 when I had Jackson and I had him just shy of my
1:54.0	my 20th birthday and so I've actually never been an adult without a child. My entire adult life has been with children.
2:04.8	And I don't at all regret that. I'm thankful. You know, I mean, just the way that it's played out.
