  • EP // 29 Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD.
    2024/09/30

    Hey Friend! Just because you CAN do it doesn’t mean you SHOULD do it.

    Do you ever find yourself addicted to the achievement?

    Do you wonder what is your best yes? It can be hard to sift through and decide what is right for you in a world that offers so many great choices. For every yes you give, you say no to something else. Remember, sis, you only have 24 hours in a day, and your body needs rest. If you say YES when you should be saying NO, don’t worry! I have a simple solution for you. If you get clear on your God-given calling, you will learn what you should say yes to and what deserves a simple, guilt-free no.

    This, friends, will be so freeing. You will experience joy, peace, and fulfillment!

    Who doesn’t want more of that, am I right? Enjoy the show! Xo, Alicia

  • EP // 28 The real reason I started homesteading, the answer may surprise you!
    2024/09/23

    The real reason I started homesteading, the answer may surprise you!

    I was longing for a simple, unhurried life. I was tired of hurling myself from event to event and answering all the dings of modern technology. I wanted to be calm and peaceful. It just happened that my whole life, as far back as I can remember, all I ever wanted was to be a mom, wife, and homemaker. I found myself in a place where I was living my dream, and I was even blessed with a fantastic business—one where I got to set my schedule and work around my family. But somewhere along the way, I forgot how to have fun and do things just for enjoyment. Life became this long checklist of to-dos, and if I could get them all done before I collapsed, then I had accomplished something, or so I thought.

    I knew I had to learn to care for myself and escape survival mode. I knew I was not being the mom, wife, and person I wanted to be. Unfortunately, back in the day, I bought into hustle culture. Forgive me, my 20-something self. I thought that if I were ever going to be successful, I would have to work until I couldn’t see straight. And if I stopped to take a break, it would all come tumbling down around me.

    As I started taking time to learn how to make things for my family, one often not-so-tasty meal at a time. I started noticing a peace inside of me, even joy bubbling from deep inside just like the perfect sourdough started, so there's some homesteading humor lol. The more I found myself in the kitchen creating, the happier I was. My family was also happy as my cooking improved, one slightly burnt cookie at a time. I realized that this was the life I was created to live, and for the first time in a long time, I had taken a deep breath, enjoyed the stillness, and knew that this was good. I was on the right path, the path of peace. As I continued on, homesteading was the next right step. Along the way, I discovered what success meant to me and what would truly make me feel successful. It looks a lot different from the world's definition of success. Hustle culture is truly detestable to me, it only leads to burnout. Check out this episode and let me share my definition of success. Maybe it will inspire you to rethink what it means to you! am so grateful for this path. If any of this hits home, please, the right path is just a step away. Enjoy the show!

  • EP // 27 My simple batch canning system & my Aunt Ellen's spaghetti sauce recipe.
    2024/09/16

    Are you ready to start canning? I hope you are reaping a harvest if you planted a garden this year! If you didn’t plant a garden this year or didn’t get the amount of produce you would have liked, no worries! You can supplement from farmers' markets, roadside stands, and friends! In this episode, I want to share how I batch can. It will make it a lot easier to can a variety of delicious foods that you and your family can enjoy all year long!

    There’s nothing better than cracking open a can of stewed tomatoes in February or grabbing a can of garden veggie soup on a cold day. Just be sure to dip some warm bread in it. That’s the only thing that could make it better.

    I hope you enjoy the show. Happy canning!!
