Join me for another casual coffee chat as I answer more of your questions! We are diving into some large family topics: sibling personalities, laundry system, sharing bedrooms. I’m also chatting about some aspects of my business that I haven’t shared before and some specific tips on how I am changing my sourdough routine lately. May this episode encourage you in your own motherhood and homemaking!

In this episode, we cover:

Observing personality differences and similarities in a large family
The strategy that allows my no-fuss laundry system to work really well for my family of 10
Navigating a challenging bedtime routine with multiple kids of various ages sharing a bedroom
My tip for anyone looking to make income from blogging
How I keep my life at a manageable pace with the many responsibilities of a working, homeschooling mother of a large family
What my weekly workflow looks like for the YouTube side of my business
Finding a balance in allowing older children to learn skills on the internet without spending too much time on screens
Diving deeper into my current sourdough techniques: switching out all-purpose flour for freshly-milled whole grains, forgoing the mixer and exclusively using stretch-and-folds
