For years, I dreamed of being a college professor. And for many years, that was my trajectory. But after becoming a mother, I felt a pull toward home. What started as a quiet shift became a full transition into homemaking.
In this episode, I’m sharing how I transitioned from a professional life to caring for my home full-time, what that journey looked like, and the simple habits that helped me find purpose along the way.
If you’re navigating change or craving more intention at home, I hope this encourages you.
