“The thing about motherhood, and I say this about my business too, cookiecutter solutions don’t work. What works for one person won’t necessarily work for you or for your child. Each child is different and it is like a learning process for each of them because they’re all so different.”

In this episode, I had the opportunity to sit down with Natalie Egger. Natalie discussed how she started her business helping clients get more organized and be more efficient with their time. As a mother of 5, Natalie shared how she uses her business practices in her home life and how everyone could benefit from some optimized practices such as time blocking. If you’re in need of organization or efficiency skills, this is the episode for you!

“Everybody has their role and that’s another thing, know your role; delegate as well. Because when you try to do everything on your own, that’s when it’s going to fall apart. That’s where overwhelm sets in.”

In this episode, I had the opportunity to sit down with Kerissa Taylor of 1984 Farms. I recently came across Kerissa and her family’s farm on Instagram and I’m so glad I did! Kerissa shared how she and her husband, Steve, along with their 6 kids, started their farm in Colorado and recently moved everything to Missouri to continue living out their dream life. Kerissa and I also talked about raising our kids on the farm and the ups and downs that come with it. 

“I would say we are more of a farm than a homestead but to me it’s more this is how our grandparents were living and how they were raised and they were pretty self-sufficient and independent people and we just feel like that for us right now is the best thing we can do.” 

In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with my friend and neighbor, Jada Sharp. Jada shared with us how her and her family got started on their farm with goats and sheep and how their farm has changed along with her family’s roles. Jada also dove into how a few bars of goat milk soap and bottles of goat milk lotion lead to her starting her business, 14 Hands Ranch.

“There’s so many things to do on the farm. So many jobs and so many places to fit in but, I just didn’t  feel like any of them were where I wanted to be or where I wanted to fit.”

In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Brandi Lahey, or as you might know her, The Tipsy Farmer. I had so much fun learning about Brandi’s journey growing hops and all that goes into growing, harvesting, and drying hops. Brandi shared why she started The Tipsy Farmer Mobile Bar and the highs and lows that came with it.
