Sacred Homemaker is Here to Help SAHM in These 5 Ways

Believe it or not, over a decade ago, my husband told me to start a blog and share how I was doing things like crafting, creating new recipes, or making homemade products for my hair or the home. I thought, okay, I could just tell them when they asked, right? I figured there’s no real need to get into all that to just share with a few people what I’m doing; besides, my life isn’t that interesting anyway, trust me!… Well, let's put it out there and say that he was right. I should have started back then, and to be honest, I had much more free time then! I say this thinking that with more free time, everything could have been done perfectly, but guess what, that's why I'm here now! It is not about perfection; it's about progress, and this is me showing up!

So Why Sacred Homemaker and Why Now?

Honestly, now that I have a family, so much has changed in my life over the last few years. Today, I find myself sharing some of the same tips and resources with other mamas more than I ever imagined. The kids are getting older, and we've now closed out our military journey. So honestly, I figured there was no better time than now to create this space just for us. Here, you can expect to see a range of topics covered under main categories to help us create magic in the mundane. I have to admit, though, it took effort to get out of my own way and just say, "I’m going to do this thing." 

Now, here I am, finally ready to share space with all of my mama friends. Sacred Homemaker's purpose is to empower homemakers and inspire busy mamas like us to slow down, gain greater perspective, and consciously find more harmony and flow in life and motherhood. I hope that this little space in the world inspires busy moms to live sacredly and cultivate a softer, more beautiful holistic life. To me, this lifestyle is centered on family, health, personal growth, homemaking, and, of course, the woman behind the title. Check out in detail what I mean below.

1. Healthy Living for a More Conscious Lifestyle

First and foremost, I know and understand that “healthy” is different for every individual and their family. Here on Sacred Homemaker, I will share our favorite healthy, delicious recipes for busy families who want to transition to, or already live, a plant-based lifestyle. You’ll find everything from my personal experiences and products I love to tips for living a more conscious lifestyle to help improve your family’s health with a holistic approach.

2. Personal Growth for Alignment-Seeking Mamas

Personal growth is a different journey for everyone, but in essence, it involves many of the same methods and principles that apply to all. For me, it requires acknowledging all the areas of our lives, such as habits, relationships, self-awareness, and mindfulness. In this space, we'll share positive affirmations, words of encouragement, ways to cancel out limiting beliefs, and practices to help us achieve the level of growth we individually desire. Not only will there be content created for mamas, but you can find resources and ways to cultivate the same type of growth and alignment for our littles.

3. Homemaking for Busy Homemaking Mamas 

I have searched for so many ways to make life as a busy mom more manageable, and when I say I have tried ALL THE THINGS, trust me, mama, I have. But if you’re like me, you want the things that “work” to be doable, something you would implement and return to again and again because it actually worked. It shouldn't come as a surprise, but I've found that being organized is one of the primary keys to success in this area. In the near future, expect to see content from me that we all can use for this very purpose. Tried and trusted resources and tips to help us have more time for what we love and need most: our families, those littles, and having peace of mind while we tend to our homes and care for ourselves.

4. Self-Care for Us Homemaking Mamas Because Self-Care is Not Selfish

Self-care, while it may seem obvious to some, many mamas struggle the most with the idea of putting themselves before others! I can honestly say I have struggled with this, too, for quite some time. But as a mother with a daughter myself, I consciously want to teach her, especially, that caring for herself, be it physically, mentally, or emotionally, is necessary, and that self-care is never selfish. As I engage in my own self-care practices, I want to share with other mamas how they, too, can establish essential self-care routines. And in doing so, I hope that we all can live more purposeful & fulfilled lives, ones where we sacrifice less of our health and happiness. You are worthy and deserving, mama, so just know that this blog is here for that constant push and reminder!

5. Family Life

Last but not least is the category #FamilyLife. This space includes everything from motherhood, marriage, and family relationships to shared traditions and simply more of a connected life at home. Ultimately, my goal is to share a weekly blog post to help us, homemakers, in one of these many areas where we give so much of our love and attention. Life isn't about checking off everything on the to-do list or being the best super mom! It took a while, but I have learned and am still learning that creating moments and memories instead of hustle, hustle, hustle grants a more aligned life, which is ultimately one that most mamas aspire to have.

These five categories aren't all I share, but they cover significant areas created to help homemaking mamas like you and me within the blog. There is also homesteading, which is extremely important in my homemaking life, and recipes. These five areas, though, are meant to continuously encourage SAHMs to live a softer, more aligned life by implementing a holistic lifestyle that emphasizes healthy living, plant-based nutrition, self-care, personal growth, and support in homemaking. So know that I am here to serve all of my homemaking mama friends, and I want you to know that your feedback and suggestions are always welcome as we take this journey together!
