Let’s talk about how our fears evolve, how we adapt, and why it’s okay if your biggest homesteading worry today is very different than what it used to be.

Today I’m talking about the strange pressure that can build on either end of the homesteading spectrum—from doing it all to doing almost nothing—and how to find the honest, grounded middle.

Today I’m talking about over-information. The constant barrage of updates, alerts, and hot takes that don’t make us safer—they just make us more anxious. It’s not that we shouldn’t be informed. It’s that we’ve forgotten how to live without the noise. So… let’s talk about finding peace in a world that thrives on panic.

This episode is a heartfelt reminder that life is unpredictable, and we must prepare ourselves and our loved ones for the unexpected. By sharing the weight of responsibilities, we create a more resilient family and community. 

Can we really go back to the good old days? This episode dives into nostalgia and how to adapt old-fashioned awesome for modern life.

Whether it’s making your own vanilla extract, cleaning out the garage, or finally remembering to call that family member or friend, today I’m encouraging you to take that first step, however small, to build momentum on the things you want to do.
