Going against the grain: how we make a one income lifestyle work and choose faith over a paycheck
Episode 9
Monday, 15 December, 2025

In today’s episode, I’m sharing a very honest conversation about choosing a slower, simpler path in a culture that constantly tells us to do more, earn more, and hustle harder.Staying home with our kids on one income hasn’t been easy. It has required sacrifice, intentional choices, and a complete shift in perspective about what truly matters. Today, I’m sharing how our family learned to reframe success, steward our finances differently, and trust God with less margin but deeper purpose.This choice may look counter cultural, but we truly believe that investing our time, presence, and discipleship into our children now is an investment in their future. Not because it’s perfect or glamorous, but because faithfulness often looks quiet and unseen.If you’ve ever wrestled with the tension between culture’s expectations and the calling you feel for your family, this episode is for you.
