I’m thrilled to welcome back Elizabeth, a dear friend, mother of six, and former RN, whose wisdom I know will be a gift to you. Elizabeth is sharing her journey of developing and selling natural care products from home with her family. We also dive into our culture’s obsession with anti-aging, the benefits of sauna detoxing, and a balanced approach to fitness during the childbearing years. Plus, we’re tackling important topics like postpartum healing, navigating “mom rage,” adjusting to shifting family dynamics, and equipping ourselves to handle illness naturally at home. Whether you're balancing motherhood, health, or entrepreneurship, this episode is full of encouragement and practical wisdom to help you thrive in every season.
In this episode, we cover:
- Some things that surprised us when our husbands left their jobs to work at home with us full-time
- Elizabeth’s journey of starting a natural care product-based business from home
- Diving into our culture’s current obsession with Botox and other interventions to prevent the appearance of aging
- The benefits of sauna for detoxing the body
- A balanced approach to fitness, nutrition, and strength for women in their childbearing years
- Practical strategies for healing and thriving postpartum
- Addressing the physical and spiritual factors contributing to “mom rage”
- Navigating changing family dynamics as your children grow into new stages and you add more babies
- Equipping yourself as a mom with knowledge and tools to handle illness naturally at home
