Healing is not a straight path—it’s a journey filled with self-discovery, resilience, and surprising reconnections.

This past year has been transformative as I’ve reconnected with my lifelong love of horses—a connection that has brought healing full circle and reminded me of the joy and freedom I thought I’d lost.

Join me as I reflect on the lessons I’ve learned, the power of rediscovery, and why it’s never too late to reclaim your joy. If you’re on your own healing journey, this one is for you.

Homesteading isn’t just about living on a farm or following outdated stereotypes—it’s a lifestyle rooted in self-sufficiency, intentionality, and reconnecting with what truly matters. In this episode, I break down what homesteading really means, challenge common misconceptions, and explore how anyone, regardless of where they live, can embrace elements of this growing movement.

I’ll share my personal journey, why we’ve chosen this path as a family, and how it’s about breaking free from societal norms, reconnecting with ancestral practices, and standing against a corrupt food system. Whether you’re raising animals, growing herbs on a windowsill, or simply learning new skills, there’s a place for you in the homesteading life.
