Hey there, darlings welcome back to the Roots and Refuge Podcast. Today we're digging into how to grow a life-giving family culture on purpose. From learning to be fully present at the dinner table to teaching our kids that hard work feels good, I share the seven pillars shaping our home—and the garden metaphors that keep me humble. We'll talk screens, Sabbath-style rest, telling the whole truth (even when it's awkward), and why patience is the secret sauce that lets all these seeds take root. Grab some iced tea, settle in, and let's tend what's already in our hands, one step at a time.
If you've found encouragement here, consider supporting the podcast on Patreon, where you can listen early and join our monthly Q&A.
As always, I bless you until next time.
