Do you wish there was an easy way to start homesteading without immediately feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or not good enough? Hi, Im Jocelyn, and Im so excited youre here at The Farm Family Table. I remember when I became a new mom, I wanted to set my child up for their best, healthiest life, but often I felt exhausted and discouraged. I wanted to provide the best food, from-scratch, and be more self-reliant, but it felt impossible to balance learning new skills, taking care of my home, and spending quality time with my kids. I felt overwhelmed by all the things I wanted and needed to do, and felt guilty when I couldnt keep up. I compared myself to picture-perfect farm life on social media, only to feel like Im not doing enough but not sure how to do more. This was not the life God had planned for me. But then I discovered a secret to start homesteading the easy way for less stress, more joy, and more time focusing on what matters most, faith and family. What if I told you, theres a way that you can achieve healthy balance and thrive in this lifestyle that God is calling you to? Want to learn how?

98. Why Less Meal Variety Can Be a Good Thing
Monday, 15 December, 2025
One thing that I never thought about before kids is how much time and effort it takes to feed everyone and put 3 meals on the table each day. There are times when meal planning can feel like a full-time job all on its own. As moms, we’re already juggling chores, kids, and all the little details of daily life. And then there’s dinner—every single night. Deciding what to cook, gathering ingredients, prepping, cooking, cleaning…it can be a lot. It’s easy for it to get overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be that way. And a secret is: sometimes less variety is actually a good thing. Today, we’re going to talk about why keeping meals simple can save you time, reduce stress, and make cooking from scratch easier. I’m going to give you some practical suggestions for meal rotations that can help keep your kitchen under control. I hope this episode gives you some encouragement to simplify your meals and take a little mental load off your shoulders. You don’t have to reinvent dinner every night to make your family happy and fed. The less stress you feel about dinner, the more energy you’ll have for other things, whether that’s gardening, getting your house clean, or dealing with toddler meltdowns. Thanks for listening!
