The Homemaker's Club Podcast Trailer

Little did Jayden and I know, back then, how formative the early years of our homemaking journeys would mean to our hearts today. Handed down mismatched couches and making home in a rinky dink apartment and a duplex that felt like a ninety's office building, we take a look back at the sweet beginnings we wouldn't change for the world. We discuss the little moments we create within our homes, be it past apartments or the homes we live in today, that make them feel cozy and joyful, and how with intention and rhythm... our homes become fruitful havens for those we care for each day.Fun fact: Jayden was the very first follower of The Homemaker's Club and the very first podcast... how sweet and special is that?!"We have so much control over our homes, our days at home, and the atmosphere... Homemaking is about the people. It's about your husband, and your kids, and the people that you invite into your home." - Jayden Copeland (@backroadandbloom on Instagram)In this episode, Jayden and I discuss the eBook that she has wholeheartedly created that will help you to create a simple, wholesome, from scratch life at home, called, "Old-Fashioned Homemaking for the Modern Woman". Inside this wonderfully thought-out publication, you will find 50 pages of useful tools for making your house a home.

#1 Rhythms of Home with Jayden Copeland

Holly and I sat down the day after Easter Sunday to discuss the matters of mental health and homemaking, and ways in which we use the gospel as a means of encouragement and foundation for the joys and hardships of homemaking. From running with tenacity as we share homemaking with the world, to learning to not place value in the works we do but in who we are, Holly and I invite you to listen in as we share hearts for tending to those entrusted in our care in a humble, service minded, gospel-led way.“One of the things I’ve always struggled with is identifying what I do with who I am. We have to know that the photos we see online, people have stewarded their gifts to get to where they are. You don't wake up one day and are the best chef. I think some people are naturally gifted in some things. You don't wake up and know how to make an awesome apple pie! You have to learn, and grow, and steward those things to serve your family." - Holly Grace Levell (@hollygrace.at.home on Instagram)In this episode, Holly and I discuss her journal she shares on her website Holly Grace at Home, where she shares tips for slow homemaking and sacred heart shaping. She also has a newly opened mercantile of homemade goods for homemaking like aprons and vintage goods for beautiful usefulness.

#2 Gospel Led Homemaking with Holly Levell

As gatekeepers between home and world, we have the ability through our daily actions and presence in our own homes, to change the world by collectively placing intention in the construction of homes built on strong foundations. Emily and I invite you to listen in as we discuss the impact we believe home has in our communities, how to maintain a healthful heart during seasons of trial and discontentment, and the beauty of community as we remain steadfast in our work making home fruitful and productive, together. “I really believe though that the world really hinges on the home. A lot of the problems you see in society today and where the world is as a whole is a result of the deconstruction of the home and of the family. As homemakers, we really have the ability to impact the world.” - Emily Nelson (@_sweetmagnolias_ on Instagram) A few little things that were mentioned in today’s episode + the coordinating details:Emily’s YouTube Channel1 Timothy 6:6-8 (for contentment vs wants)Proverbs 15:17 (for contentment during financial struggle)Join our community of thousands of women worldwide, as we navigate the joys and hardships of homemaking, alongside one another!

#3 Trials and Discontentment with Emily Nelson

My friend Kristin and I invite you to listen in as we discuss what we believe to be cornerstones in the cultivation of our homes and the culture in which we intend to create. From traditions of both old and new, and the images of home that were planted in our heart's upbringings, we believe that through homemaking, we are building a rich home culture. A rich home culture that we pray will leave a lasting impact on the lives entrusted in our care, and for the generations to follow. "I love to have them (my children) scurrying around to create that culture of being seen and wanted. That they are a part of it, they don't just live here, but they are connected to their home, they are a part of their home. It makes such a difference to me because I felt that so much more deeply when I would visit my grandmother. I felt like I was a part of her day and a part of her home, and I just want my kids to know that when they leave, that culture is still bringing them back here, they can always come home and be connected." - Kristin Cash @ouralaskanlegacy on Instagram A few little things that were mentioned in today’s episode + the coordinating details:Kristin's Book Tapestry of GraceFellow homemaker Jennifer Pepito @thepeacefulpress on Instagram1,000 Gifts by Ann VoskampWay Maker by Ann VoskampJoin our community of thousands of women worldwide, as we navigate the joys and hardships of homemaking, alongside one another!

#4 Home Culture with Kristin Cash

In today's episode, Jen and I invite you to listen in as we discuss the ways in which we believe that as homemakers, we are preserving civilization. By reflecting on who and what we want to be known for, we are empowered to authentically build strong foundations within our homes by choosing where we invest our efforts and where we spend our time... and how that significantly impacts our home life, the world in which we live today, and the generations to follow. "As we take care of our homes, love our children, welcome in our neighbors, bake a loaf of bread, put some flowers out... we are being a civilized, restorative force in the world." - Jennifer Pepito (@jenniferpepito on Instagram)A few little things that were mentioned in today’s episode + the coordinating details:1.

#5 Preserving Civilization with Jennifer Pepito

One of the most fascinating things when we look back on the seasons in which we have journeyed through, is to see a gleam of golden thread, the love and appreciation of home, running through our lives. Whether it's creating a cozy home after we come home from work, moving cross country to a new home, or leaving behind the office for pursuing a life of full-time home economics... the making of a house a home is beautiful and valuable. In today's episode, Tayler and I invite you to listen in as we discuss and navigate the ways in which we have learned to adapt, cultivate comfort, trust in timing, and create a habit and practice of seeking contentment through the seasons of homemaking."Where can I intentionally seek joy? That's on my to-do list because in order for me to do the work that God is calling me to do in my home, joy really reigns for me, at least that's what combats any negativity in my spirit. It's one of my biggest weapons against the enemy. It allows me to find a peace and serenity in the work that I'm doing in my home." - Tayler Franke (@joyinthewilderness on Instagram)A couple of little things that were mentioned in today’s episode + the coordinating details:1. Philippians 4:4 "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again, I will say, rejoice!"2. Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful. - William Morris (The quote Ashley read that sparked the desire to make her family's home their own... to create a life they love... through each season and transition of homemaking.)Join our community of thousands of women worldwide, as we navigate the joys and hardships of homemaking, alongside one another!

#7 Mother Culture with Alex Smith

From carrying traditions of our upbringings forward and understanding who we are and the value of our roles within our homes, Melissa and I believe that homemaking is simply defined as heart shaping. In today's episode, my friend Melissa and I invite you to listen in as we discuss the heart of homemaking, mothering alongside one another, using social media as a tool for inspiration and community, creating rhythm, and the incredible value in taking moments to reflect and celebrate the things we have accomplished within our homemaking journeys as fuel to keep going."No matter the country, no matter the culture, home was the same because it was my mom, and it was my dad, and it was my brothers, and the food that we knew that we'd grown up on. That was home, and that's really special. It proves that it's not about the things, or the money, or the jobs, or anything. It's the people and the relationships and the traditions that we try to keep going. Homemaking is creating as rich and full of a life with my family, within these four walls." -Melissa Simmons (@melissa_amy_simmons on Instagram)Join our community of thousands of women worldwide, as we navigate the joys and hardships of homemaking, alongside one another!

#8 Heart Shaping with Melissa Simmons

Like the calendar year, homemaking comes with seasons. Some seasons in home are abundantly beautiful, and some are filled with trials and tribulations… but one thing remains true, having deep rooted hope and knowing that the role of homemaking is magnificent and incredibly worthwhile will get you through even the hardest of days. In today’s episode, my friend Katie and I invite you to listen in as we discuss the ways in which we journey through the seasons of celebration and hardships in home with a whole lot of hope, grace, fellowship, and endurance.“Hope just keeps us propelling forward in goodness. Homemaking is worth it. It’s worthwhile. And you have a whole community of people who are here to find the beauty in the ordinary and rejoice in the old-fashioned ways of making a house a home. Just rely on that truth and those good voices, and they’ll bring up that hope and faithfulness in homemaking for all of us. When we keep doing this and people keep sharing their testimonies, it’s just going to keep fueling faith that all of this is worth it." - Katie Campbell (@under_the_sassafras on Instagram)From today’s episode:You can find Miss Sally Clarkson’s podcast by tapping here, as well as her blog and access to her books by tapping here!

#9 Foundation for Heart and Home with Katie Campbell

In this week's episode, my friend Kate (@rootedintheseasons on Instagram) met me at the kitchen table and we had such a lovely conversation about our love for home and motherhood. Kate shared a bit about her family’s transition into her becoming a full-time homemaker and a bit about the transition from being a two-income household down to one. We chat about contentment and ways to be happy with what we currently have, the value in learning new skills, and some helpful ideas on how to rethink priorities within our homes. It is our greatest hope that at the end of this conversation, you'll be refreshed with some useful provisions and encouragement as you make your house a home.
