Hey, y'all! Welcome to episode thirteen of the Roots and Refuge Podcast. Today I’m going to be answering the question, "What is a homesteader?" Homesteading looks different for all of us and we're all at different stages in our journey. I have a very deep-rooted belief that we can all turn our waiting room into a classroom. This can apply to anything! If you have a dream in your heart, the very best way you can steward that dream and that promise is to do everything within your capacity, where you are, to receive the fulfillment of that promise. Don't give up when it gets hard, or when mistakes are made. That will come, it's inevitable with growth. Please, just know that I am proud of you, I am rooting for you, and I am here for you, cheering you along each step of your journey!
