Ever notice how some technology makes life easier, while other technology seems designed to steal your attention? In this episode, I'm sharing a few late-night thoughts on gratitude, homemaking, and the small everyday frustrations that quietly drain our time and peace. Plus, a favorite book passage that completely changed how I'm thinking about the little things in my home that are either supporting me or burdening me.

Getting Ahead Before Baby: Organization, Health & Hard Truths

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 13:44:01 -0300

In today’s episode, I’m sharing an honest look into my third trimester—what I feel like I’ve done really well, and a few things that… didn’t go so well.

It’s easy to only share the highlights, but I’ve always believed there’s just as much value in talking about the mistakes—especially if it helps someone else avoid them.

I walk through how I’ve been getting ahead before baby arrives, the systems that are actually working for me, and the things I’ve had to let go of in this season. I also share a couple product reviews I promised I’d report back on (including one I wouldn’t recommend), and a communication misstep I made that turned into a really important lesson.

If you’re in a similar season—or preparing for one—this episode is a mix of practical tips, mindset shifts, and real-life reflection.

Sun, 22 Mar 2026 14:29:38 -0300

In today’s episode, we’re talking about something every homemaker faces at some point:
how to actually get things done—especially the big, overwhelming projects.

Whether it’s prepping your home for a new season of life, tackling a long-overdue home project, or simply trying to build momentum, this episode is all about breaking things down, staying consistent, and making real progress.

Because the truth is—projects don’t get done all at once…
they get done one step at a time.

401: Specialized Homemaking

Mon, 16 Mar 2026 03:39:00 -0300

Over the past few episodes, we’ve walked through the phases of homemaking from beginner, to intermediate, to advanced—and today we’re diving into the more unique, often old-fashioned skills that feel deeply tied to the heart of home.

These are the kinds of skills that may look a little different for each homemaker. They’re the ones that stir up curiosity, excitement, and maybe even a sense of longing for a slower, more intentional way of life. For me, these are the homemaking skills I hope to keep learning, practicing, and one day passing down.

Homemaking 301: Advanced Skillset

Mon, 09 Mar 2026 14:43:00 -0300

Part 3 of the Homemaking Levels Series

Welcome back to Untraditionally Traditional: A Millennial Homemaker! In this episode, we’re continuing the 4-part homemaking series by moving into Homemaking 301: Advanced Homemaking.

Homemaking at the advanced level isn’t about having arrived—it’s about becoming more intentional, more practiced, and more confident in the systems and skills that support your home. No two homes look exactly alike, and no two homemaking journeys do either. What feels advanced to one person may feel second nature to another—and that’s part of the beauty of it.

Today we’re talking through what I consider advanced homemaking skills in the areas of food, laundry, cleaning, budgeting, gardening, and entertaining.

Homemaking 201: Intermediate Homemaking

Mon, 23 Feb 2026 03:13:00 -0400

In today’s episode, we’re continuing our 4-part homemaking levels series—moving from Homemaking 101 (Foundations) into Homemaking 201: Intermediate Homemaking.

If you haven’t listened to last week’s foundation episode yet, I highly recommend starting there first. Homemaking isn’t something anyone is born knowing—it’s a set of skills we build over months, years, and decades. And even seasoned homemakers benefit from circling back to the basics when life gets chaotic.

Today, we’re leveling up across the categories of laundry, cleaning, food, budgeting, outdoor care, and entertaining—with practical steps you can start using right away.

Homemaking 101: Building a Strong Foundation

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 13:02:53 -0400

In this episode, I’m introducing a brand-new four-part series breaking down my version of Homemaking 101, 201, 301, and 401—from beginner to expert homemaker.

We all start somewhere, and too often homemaking content skips straight to the advanced level. This series is about honoring where you are, understanding the skills that truly matter, and building a solid foundation you can return to whenever life feels off the rails.

Today’s episode focuses on Homemaking 101: the basics—because without a strong foundation, nothing else holds.

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 03:14:00 -0400

Affordability isn’t a hoax—and in this milestone 100th episode, we’re talking about practical, realistic ways homemakers can save money without striving for perfection.

In this episode, I’m sharing small changes that actually add up: what’s worth making from scratch, what tools truly help stretch your grocery budget, and how to balance time, energy, and money in different seasons of life. This is not about doing everything—this is about choosing what serves you right now.

Fighting the Winter Blues

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 03:47:00 -0400

In today’s episode, I’m reflecting on why winter can feel so hard—especially for homemakers—and what I’ve been doing to intentionally combat the winter blues.

This episode is an invitation to ask yourself: What do I actually love about summer? And then, how can you bring pieces of that into winter—right now—to bridge the gap until spring returns?

If winter tends to drag you down, I hope this episode feels like a deep breath, a little encouragement, and a reminder that small shifts really do add up.

Heart Over Hype: How Not to Get Lost in Holiday Overdoing

In this episode, I open up about my love–hate relationship with the holiday season—how the joy, nostalgia, and traditions often collide with pressure, overspending, and unrealistic expectations. I share what I’ve learned about emotional spending, the myth of “perfect holidays,” and why memories consistently matter more than material gifts. I also offer simple ways to stay grounded—from meaningful, budget-friendly gift ideas to reframing the season around connection, intention, and the values that truly make it special.
