I've noticed the pattern with people who 'get stuff done.'...they have help. From a husband to family to older children... I'm by myself all day with little kids and barely anything get done( like I'm lucky if we clean something and make dinner most days).I've had to tell myself that I'm by myself and I'm only one person, I cant do more than the hours in the day. I just do the next important thing next and keep chugging along
Everyone starts out with babies - not helpful teens - and does the best they can in that season. The guest said that her business took off and then her husband quit his day job.
Same girl. Just keep breathing. We got this. Homeschool homestead home whatever. It is all necessary and it all has to be done and it means absolutely nothing when people flippantly say, “ well you might have to let some things go. “ like what?? lol seriously not helpful. But we keep moving! I listen to this podcast and the Homesteading Family among others and they have kept me moving forward. You got this. Keep breathing keep praising and praying. Some day the sun will shine again
I'm a little late listening to this but it's exactly what I needed. I work from home for my husband, have a toddler and I'm 33 weeks pregnant. I'm flat exhausted and I'm sitting here wondering why I'm failing and don't have the energy to get my garden seeds started etc. I just sold my ducks because I feel like I've got to much on my plate. I so needed this. Thank you both for being real and honest.
Thank you so much Lisa. I think I have watched this video like 5 times because eachtime I catch something new. In a world where homemaking is looked down on, its nice to hear and see women who put their families first. It's also nice to know you can just be yourself and take it oneday at a time. I get migraines so I tend to make dinner in the morning before the Sun gets hectic. I thought it was weird but hearing the same thing in this podcast made my day😊 Welldone ladies❤
This is 100% my favorite podcast so far. She is fantastic and totally relatable. Burnout is bad for me and being overwhelmed is also bad for me. She helped me so much.
I love your content ❤🎉It is a breath of fresh air for me Lisa. I appreciate everything you are putting out. You are amazing and I really look up to you. I am a 40 year old single mother of 3. You are inspiring to me. You give me hope and I am continuing my homeschooling- homemaking journey. I have been consuming your content daily.
I appreciate this podcast so much!! A friend recommended this specific episode for me since I'm currently struggling with homesteading, homeschooling, a new TH-cam adventure, and just regular large family life. I love that you two gave detailed daily schedules and addressed hard issues with real, no frills answers. It was truly helpful and I think I may go back and listen a second time. I appreciate both of you so much! 💕
That was Huge for me! When Kate said do your hardest thing first. Dinner is My Hardest! I have made Dinner, right after making Breakfast. My Prayer is to be consistent with making Dinner in the Morning. The Other thing that Kate said, that really need to pray about and do is no Social Media from Friday night to Monday morning. As a Believer in Jesus, My Family and I have Scripture ready as a Family on Friday night. Then Observe Sabbath and have Bible Study on Saturday & rest! I need to seriously rest and not be on TH-cam. My Husband was home for 9 months, because he lost his job…since he wasn’t submitting to mandates. He just got a new job the beginning of this week. Just don’t see it as permanent. We have been praying about moving to Missouri, from Oregon. We have a little Farm. We would like to be completely out of Debt(no house payment) that would be selling Our current home. Moving and paying cash for a New Home/acreage. Would be ideal for My Husband to be at home. He helped so much, when he was home( Made Awesome Breakfasts😉)
I was laughing so hard when you both were talking about not having “more” time when your husbands were home. It’s so true. My husband has to go out of town for work once a year and it is the time when I actually get the most done! Haha! ❤️
In the same boat here, first time mom to an 11 month old and have been feeling very overwhelmed, especially when I think of where I want to be with homesteading and home making. I am starting to inch out of that overwhelm feeling with more of a daily routine but it’s been a slow process.
Thank you. My husband is deployed at his née job claims adjusting for the foreseeable future and I am living in a camper while we look for a house in our new town since we sold our house after he got fired due to the jab mandate. Burn out can really play a factor but we're so excited for the next chapter. Just feels good to hear from y'all even though our situations are different.
Wow, I'm on call from seven am to midnight for my job, but I get to be home, because I have 6 disabled people to watch not getting paid so I have to work. Both physically and mentally disabled which is very hard. 7 days a week. There are no vacations, no breaks and hardly any sleep. As long as have my coffee in the morning I'm good. I want to start a business but my soap making failed. I ended up with a lot of soap.
Loved the tip about scrolling through Instagram will doing mundane or stationary tasks. It will help to maximize my time and productivity. Thank you both. ❤
Thank you for sharing ladies!!! I’m trying to do the same as you both- as a military family with no living grandmothers and no support system. I would love to know what work you outsource? Should I hire a house cleaner or do I hire a person to help manage my content? 😅 I’m struggling trying to grow my channel and blog- and manage made from scratch living. Whoosh.
Love this channel but think it’s ironic this is at 7 am! 😂 If I’m homesteading I’m going to be taking care of my kids and animals then, or preparing for school. If I’m already burnt out I’ll be sleeping if at all possible! 😂 I will be watching this later in the day. ⏰
You’re noticing that the interview is playing at 7am. That’s because Lisa (or anyone who makes a podcast) can record it, edit it, and then schedule it to play (publish) anytime they want. You can do the same thing with a blog post. It is the magic of technology these days! 😊
I’m the same- everything is off the cuff filmed on my phone. I’m so the same as Kate! That’s my scattered creative brain getting organized! My 5th was born March 2021 too, Kate ;)
For me it sound like you noth are super women. this is amazing. I grew up in a family which my mom is a boomer, she is now 64 and she never cooked in her life, not to mention made bread. she only know how to consume things made in the supermarket of coffee shops. so for me it is taking a lot of time to learn everything. even cooking and usstain myself is some weeks a challenge, because as a child my mom always buy food that is made (which also a crapy food) and I am still learning to cook and bake and make stuff myself. I am doing good but I am doing one thing at a time. I find it hard to do things that do not relate to each other at the same time. like I can make chickens wings and potatos or veggies at the same time, but to also post something online or answer an email that would be too much for me to do simultanisly... the last complain I have is .... What do you do if you want to start a family and a farm but still struggle with your health? I have thyroid problem and it feels like "only if I would make my own food healthy I could get myself healthy,,, but I have no energy to do all of this.... ",.... so it is a loop problem. Do you all just healthy all the time?
I am 13 weeks pregnant and have a 7 month old at home, I am generally still very productive but it’s nice to hear we must take the seasons as they come!
Lol - Homer Simpson lowered the bar for the expectations of men/fathers. (Along with toxic feminism - most men depicted in TV shoes & movies are incompeten; idiots.) Also, interestingly, I heard - this is why the series of "The Sopranos" failed, (not sure if it was due to new writers but) the main character (male) that was originally a bad-ass put together & tough gangster (successful albeit a criminal), started to fall apart in the end - f-ing up, being an incompetent dunce - and the show lost its audience.

Exactly, the help is incredible!!!
Don't be hard on yourself...you just do the best you can each day.

My parents worked from home. My dad was a farmer and my mom a homemaker. We had an amazing childhood!!
I'm a little late listening to this but it's exactly what I needed. I work from home for my husband, have a toddler and I'm 33 weeks pregnant.

You got this!
This has been one of my favorite interviews!!! Plus her hard truth about being lazy, essentially, was just what I needed!!

“Am I on the toilet” 😂 that was my favorite being real line!
Watching in Oct 2023. I love Venison for Dinner you tube channel.
Two of my favorite internet moms together, what a joy. Thank you both 🙏🏼👏🏻
Yay! Thank you!
I am first time mom to a 10 month old and feeling so overwhelmed. This podcast helped a lot. Thank you!
First baby is the hardest!

The best advice: make dinner at breakfast. Thank you!
Loved this! I love the farmhouse on Boone channel already and Kate is so relatable! She has gained a follower!!
I so want what you all have! I'm going to have to take your blogging course!!
So glad you had Kate on your podcast!
Great podcast. I love that you hit all the points & questions. I always learn so much.
I so appreciated and loved listening to this particular podcast. Thank you both so very much!!!!!!

all the pioneer women could have had a show,they did it all
And had a community.
Was her overall message, "If you start feeling overwhelmed, just do less?"
42:00-43:00 needs to be made into a short clip so we can share it!!
I am 13 weeks pregnant and have a 7 month old at home, I am generally still very productive but it’s nice to hear we must take the seasons as they come!
