Heart of a Homemaker: Part 1

from Lifegiving Motherhood · host Emily Parkins

In this episode, I share my journey and insights on being a homemaker, inspired by Elizabeth George's book, "A Woman After God's Own Heart." I discuss the importance of setting spiritual and physical routines, planning my day with intention, and prioritizing family and personal growth. I emphasize the value of waking up early to prepare myself spiritually and physically, and how this practice can positively impact family life. I also offer practical tips for managing time and responsibilities, especially for mothers with young children. Join me as I explore how to balance homemaking with personal and spiritual development.Follow me on Instagram | Check out my website Mentioned in this episode:A Woman After God's Own HeartLife Management for Busy WomenYou're Still a Good MomCaraway Home | Use this link to save 33%!Pink Lily | Use code October20 for 20% off SitewideMUD\WTR | Use this link for $20 OffNEEDED | Prenatal & Postpartum & Beyond Support for Moms | Use code EMILY for 20% offParamount+ | Use this link for a free trial! Thistle | Anti-Inflammatory Meal Deliveries | use code EMILY100for $100 OffSlumberkins | use code EMILY for 10% offHappsy Organic Mattress | Use this link for $200 Off & use code EMILY15 for 15% offWood Stove Kitchen | Use code EMILY20 for 20% off & free shippingPique Life | Use this link for 15% off & free shippingHungryroot | $30 off your first box & free gift for life!WINC | Use this link to get your first box for $29.95Little Passports - EMILYP20 for 20% OffOLIPOP - EMILYP15 for 15% OffMountain Ops - EMILYP20 for 20 Off Coterie - EMILY10 for 10% offCoffee Bros - parkins15 for 15% off your orderTiny Land - EMILYROSE_PARKINS 10% Off Any OrderMom Cozy - EMILYP15 for 15% OffHealthy Baby - The best diapers! Toups & Co - EMILY10 for 10% OffSweet’s Elderberry - EMILY for free shipping and 15% offWildbird - HIGHVIBE10Moonlite - EMILY15 - 15% offEquiLife - Health Testing, Supplements & more Pinkblush - EmilyParkins25
