173. Chatting Motherhood, Homeschool, Minimalism, Pregnancy, Business (and More!) with Sarah Therése

Sarah Therése and I are a decade apart in our motherhood journeys, and our different perspectives and experiences made this conversation so interesting. We tackled a variety of topics based on questions we received from you on Instagram, everything from minimalism to pregnancy to homeschooling to business.

Throughout our many topics of conversation, one overarching theme kept resurfacing: as women and mothers, we have the power to make changes in our homes and families when something is not going well. While we cannot control everything, we have the ability to improve things way more than we think! May this conversation be an encouragement to you as you assess your own challenges and endeavor to move forward in boldness!

In this episode, we cover:

How the pace changes from early motherhood into the middle years
Managing the day-to-day responsibilities of motherhood and homemaking by planning ahead
Why owning less stuff is a gift to your children
Pursuing your dream life in your current circumstances
What homeschooling looks like with children of all ages at home
Turning down the noise and finding what rhythms are right for your unique family
Preparing your body and mind for beautiful pregnancies and births
Identifying problems and pursuing solutions in every area of motherhood
The ups and downs of sharing your life and family on a public platform
Deciding when to turn down opportunities in order to prioritize family
How do you know when it is time to quit something?
