Learning to Come Home to Yourself with Lacey Jean

Lacey Jean is. Lacey Jean is many things, a polymath at heart, at once butcher, mobile processor, hide tanner, shearer, and shepherdess but none of the many hats she wears defines Lacey Jean. This is one of those incredibly juicy conversations where you walk away feeling more alive for it, dripping with honesty and earnestness, triumph and failure, and the meandering path we are all taking as we try to find home within ourselves. As Lacey embarks on building her own Geodome home by hand in the Pacific Northwest, she muses about what it’s taken to build a home in herself. Already, as she has started to move in, she has noticed how living in the round is changing her mindset and we explore the round robustness of cycles - from life to death and back into life again. Along the way, we talk about all the skills she has built to get here and what it means to be capable. Lacey talks about holding death as a butcher and mobile processor but also what it means to let parts of your self and your dreams go so others can take root. Lacey's story is incredibly inspiring and everyone will find wisdom in this conversation!We also talk about:Using social media as inspiration, not comparisonRaising sovereign childrenFind LaceyInstagram: @fireheart_shepherdessWebsite: fireheartshepherdess.coOnline Hide Tanning CourseFurther Reading:Radical Homemaker by Shannon HayesResources Mentioned: Lines written in the days of growing darkness by Mary OliverRelated Ground Work Episodes:Erin PataCurrent Discounts for GW listeners:15% off Farm True ghee and body care products using code: KATEKAV15Join the Ground Work Collective:Instagram: @groundworkcollectiveFind a Farm: nearhome.groundworkcollective.comMore: groundworkcollective.comPodcast disclaimer can be found by visiting: groundworkcollective.com/disclaimerEpisode WebpageEpisode YouTube Page
