For over 5 years now, I have sat on the interviewers side of the microphone bringing you over 100 homemaker stories. Many of you have asked to hear my answers to these questions, and today you get your wish.

Hannah Stewart of the Sugar & Spice Mom Life Podcast approached me a few months ago with the idea to interview me for her show using my Homemaker Portrait questions, and I agreed!

This is a crossover episode featuring an introduction and some AoH news from me followed by Hannah's interview of me from her podcast. I close the episode with my thoughts, the emoji for the show and a few reminders.

I pray you will be blessed by my story of home as much as I've been blessed by hearing all of yours.

What you’ll hear in this crossover conversation

My story of becoming a homemaker (yes… we got married at 18 and 19)
The “committee of women” who shaped my homemaking over the years
Why systems (monthly planning, weekly planning, meal planning) matter—especially if you’re not naturally a “maintenance” person
Hospitality that keeps things simple and welcoming (and doesn’t require a big show)
A rapid-fire round: a memorable fail, a meaningful win, my favorite tip, and the “tool I can’t live without”
