The Homemaker's Club ® Podcast

In today’s conversation, I’m joined by my friend Lyndsey Mimnagh, founder of Treehouse Schoolhouse. Lyndsey’s work is devoted to helping families grow in home education through seasonal rhythms, literature, biblical truth, and intentional connection. Her approach invites mothers to slow down and let their homes become places of belonging, discipleship, and legacy.

Together, we talk about what it means to see home (homemaking, homeschooling, and homekeeping) as a vocation - why it matters, how it shapes generations, and how to embrace rhythms of belonging with confidence and grace.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

 • Why homemaking is ultimately about 
creating a culture of belonging • for our children.
 • Gentle beginnings in early education and sparking lifelong wonder, not burnout.
 • The power of simple family traditions in grounding home life.
 • Homemaking and homeschooling as a vocation - not just something to “squeeze in.”
 • Why presence with our children matters more than productivity or perfection.
 • Practical ways to anchor your family in seasonal rhythms and a shared vision.

Resources Mentioned:

Treehouse Schoolhouse • – seasonal curriculum, planners, and resources
Discount code: • 
HomemakersClub15 • for 15% (One use per customer. Cannot be combined with other promos.)

Lyndsey reminds us that our homes tell a story - one that will echo into the hearts of our children and, by God’s grace, flow into generations to come. Whether through books, meals, or quiet daily rhythms, every intentional act is a seed planted in love.

Friends, if this episode blessed you, would you share it with another homemaker or leave a review? It helps others find encouragement here at the table.

#51 Vocation of Home with Lyndsey Mimnagh

Today I’m joined by my friend Courtney Moody, wife, mama, homemaker, and the heart behind Acts of Sourdough. What began with curiosity (and a willingness to laugh at the flops) has grown into a family business that equips homemakers with simple tools, sourdough classes, and everyday encouragement. We talk about choosing home in a noisy world, finding peace in organization over perfection, tending real rhythms in the kitchen, and serving others with the work of our hands.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

 • Courtney’s leap of faith from restaurant life to full-time homemaking—and how it reshaped their family’s days.
 • Letting go of perfection in busy seasons and choosing peace over pristine.
 • Embracing experimentation, vulnerability, and progress in sourdough (and all of homemaking)
 • The Story of Acts of Sourdough
 • Staying anchored in prayer when calling goes against the grain.
 • Family business & boundaries
 • Using food to bless neighbors, support special needs, and steady family rhythms.

Resources Mentioned:

Acts of Sourdough • (tools, classes, and encouragement)
Scripture: • 
"They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts." Acts 2:46 • (the heart behind “Acts of Sourdough”)

Courtney reminds us that tending dough is a picture of tending home: ordinary, repeatable steps that, over time, feed the people we love and shape a culture of gratitude, service, and joy. And that even one small rhythm, a made bed, a pot of soup, or bread shared with a neighbor can steady the whole house.

#50 Daily Bread with Courtney Moody

Today I’m joined by my friend Katherine McDowell, a fellow homemaker, mother, and our very own in-house librarian who hosts our beloved Homemakers Literary Society. We talk about what it looks like to turn inward as autumn begins: crafting a home of belonging, marking the seasons with the liturgical calendar, and building a culture of literature and story in the home. Katherine’s perspective is rich with faith, heritage, and practical rhythms that make ordinary days sacred.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

 • How the liturgical calendar shapes family rhythms and traditions.
 • Creating a literary home: seasonal picture books, read-alouds, and curating living books.
 • Why what we consume shapes the culture of our homes.
 • Practical ways to weave books and stories into everyday life.
 • Using each new season as a “mini new year” to reset rhythms with hope.

Resources Mentioned: 

 • The Homemaker’s Club (

Read-Aloud Revival • (book lists by age)
Sally Clarkson • & 
Sarah Clarkson • (resources on books and literature in the home)
Ambleside Online • (Charlotte Mason “living books” lists)

Katherine reminds us that every season offers a chance to begin again, a “mini new year” to reset our homes with rhythms of prayer, gratitude, and story. Even one small change like lighting a candle at dinner, starting a family read-aloud, or ending the day with prayer over your children can become a rhythm that steadies the whole house.

Friends, if this episode blessed you, I’d love for you to share it with a friend or leave a review, it helps other homemakers find encouragement here at the table.

In this conversation, we talk about homemaking as a consecrated space and why tending the atmosphere of our homes (not just the chores) strengthens families and blesses our communities.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

Today at the kitchen table, I’m joined by my friend Jess Markoya, co-owner of the beloved shoppe, Neuflora. Jess is a homemaker, mother of five, homeschool mama, and business owner whose heart for women and intentional living shines through everything she creates.

In this conversation, Jess shares her family’s journey of moving from Hawaii to Tennessee, the story of how Neuflora began, and the joy of opening their new storefront.
