Podcast Ep. #006 - re-defining homemaking w/Joanna

In this week's podcast episode Joanna and I push back on what culture expects of us in the areas of homemaking and motherhood. We re-define what it means to care for our homes and how we can impact those around us.

Joanna is a mom, homemaker, homeschool teacher, writer, and so much more. Listen in as we discuss how we re-define homemaking.

In this episode we discuss:

• the perspective shift on homemaking in the last 2 generations

• Joanna's goal for her home

• creating a feeling of belonging

• why I titled my blog Embracing Home

• the way that each of us became homemakers

• the impact that our homemaking can make our families and in the community around us

• creating sanctuaries from our chaotic world

• how homemaking can be a piece of our lives

• the quiet daily tasks of serving our homes and families can be fulfilling in unexpected ways

This episode is part of a longer interview and I will share some clips of our conversation on the blog:

• My Burnout Breakthrough: Embracing Less for a Fuller Life w/Joanna Bischoff

• Why I Write & Developing My Writing Process w/Joanna Bischoff
