In this episode of Everyday Homesteading, we open up about cultivating contentment in every season of our homestead life. It's easy to feel grateful when everything is going smoothly, but true contentment is often built in the hard moments. Today, we talk about choosing gratitude, navigating overwhelm, balancing the desire to grow with the ability to rest, and finding joy in whatever season you are in.✅ For more information, visit the blog post here: https://homesteadingfamily.com/cultivating-contentment-on-the-homestead/✅ Get all our favorite sausage recipes here: https://classes.homesteadingfamily.com/pl/2148622418✅ Learn how to render lard here: https://homesteadingfamily.com/rendering-lard-or-tallow/✅ Thank you to ForJars for sponsoring today's podcast.

In this episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, you'll learn who Dr. Weston A. Price was and what his groundbreaking research revealed about the connection between diet, physical health, and human flourishing. Dr. Price's global studies in the early 1900s showed that traditional, nutrient-dense, properly prepared foods produced strong, joyful, disease-resistant people — while modern, processed diets led to degeneration within a single generation. Host Jamie Belz, FNTP, MHC explains how the Weston A. Price Foundation (WAPF) continues Dr. Price's mission today by helping people live healthier, more holistic lives. Through education, community, and advocacy, WAPF promotes ancestral wisdom — from properly prepared, nutrient-dense foods to lifestyle practices that support balance, vitality, and lifelong wellness. Then, Jamie welcomes fellow FNTP, Allison Mädl, who recently returned from the WAPF's Wise Traditions Conference in Salt Lake City. Together, they unpack the insights, research, and reflections she brought back — from nourishing, gourmet meals to saturated fat science, circadian rhythm optimization, fermentation, regenerative farming, and the revival of real-food education in schools.      Key Takeaways The Legacy of Dr. Weston A. Price and how ancestral diets rich in fat-soluble vitamins, minerals, and enzymes built the foundation for strong bodies and resilient minds. Food Quality Determines Health Quality Properly prepared, nutrient-dense, locally sourced, whole foods — raw dairy, pastured meats, fermented vegetables, soaked grains, and healthy animal fats — remain the cornerstone of wellness. Nutrient density naturally balances appetite, stabilizes blood sugar, and sustains energy. Saturated Fats vs. Seed Oils: A Paradigm Shift Modern science is re-evaluating decades of misguided advice. Evidence now shows that natural saturated fats support longevity and hormone health, while industrial seed oils are unstable, oxidizing fats that accelerate inflammation and cellular damage. Cholesterol is Not the Enemy Dietary cholesterol doesn't raise blood cholesterol levels — high carbohydrate intake and metabolic dysfunction do. Cholesterol is essential for hormone production, cell membrane integrity, vitamin D synthesis, and more!. Light, Sleep, and Longevity Circadian rhythm is a biological foundation of health. Morning sunlight exposure, reduced nighttime blue light, and true darkness during sleep optimize melatonin production and activity, support mitochondrial function, and slow aging at the cellular level. Fermentation and the Microbiome Traditional ferments like kefir, kombucha, and natto restore microbial diversity and digestive resilience. Start small, vary your sources, and pay attention to how your body responds — real food is the most affordable and effective  probiotic. From Soil to Sovereignty Regenerative agriculture proves that nutrient-dense food starts with healthy soil. Farmers using organic and rotational methods see higher yields, stronger crops, and better economics without chemical dependency — improving both land and lives. Real-Food Education Changes Generations Teaching knife skills, broth-making, and gardening in schools reconnects children with the source of their food. These skills build confidence, reduce dependence on processed food, and restore a sense of value and purpose in young people. Community Nourishes as Much as Food The Wise Traditions Conference exemplifies what happens when like-minded people gather around shared values of health, freedom, and stewardship. The table becomes a place of healing — for body, mind, and spirit.     About Our Guest — Allison Mädl, FNTP Allison graduated as a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner in 2014 and has served the NTA in various roles ever since. She is currently a Lead Instructor and Senior On-Demand Program Developer for the Nutritional Therapy Association and runs a private practice in North Idaho, where she works with clients both in the U.S. and abroad. She combines her passion for teaching and nutrition to help individuals rediscover what it means to eat, live, and thrive in alignment with their bio-individual design.     Resources Mentioned Weston A.

Jordan Sather and Nate Prince welcome Michelle McAninch of Tamarac Garden for a masterclass in practical homesteading and herbal medicine. Broadcasting from GART Cocoa Beach, the trio dives into the world of natural healing, from identifying wild herbs like yarrow and mullein to using everyday “weeds” as powerful remedies. Michelle shares stories of foraging in North Idaho, teaching “Eat Your Way Through the Forest” classes, and creating tinctures and teas for first aid, fever, and pain relief. The conversation expands to sustainable living, gardening in small spaces, raising chickens, freeze-drying eggs, and the surprising benefits of weeds most people spray to kill. They explore container gardening, aquaponics, and the importance of reconnecting to the land, even in suburban settings. With humor, hope, and real-life tips, this episode inspires listeners to reclaim self-reliance and rediscover the pharmacy growing right outside their doors.

Today on the Idaho Business Podcast, Spencer sits down with Seth Horst—realtor in beautiful Coeur d'Alene, retired California Highway Patrol officer turned Idaho convert, and host of the Idaho Experience podcast (and the North Idaho Experience YouTube channel). Seth shares how his team of former first responders and veterans grew by being unapologetically themselves, niching hard, and attracting clients who share their values. They dig into why culture beats everything, how clear core values filter both hires and clients, and why North Idaho's throwback, say-hi-to-strangers vibe makes community the real selling point. You'll hear how niching actually reduces marketing cost while increasing trust, why "all money is not good money," and what it takes to scale a team without losing your soul. Seth also talks community work—from long-form local conversations to a judicial watch effort—and why informed citizens keep Idaho, Idaho. Lightning Round: Seth's current read is Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell, and his "myth to bust" is that casting a wide net wins—it's the niche that wins.

Zack Ponder shares his raw journey from struggling entrepreneur with a DUI to becoming a present father who homeschools four kids while his wife battles cancer. A former special education teacher who worked with profound autism students, Zack discovered God through the daily challenges of non-speaking, violent students and translated those insights into his books "Special Days" and the upcoming "Happy Days" devotional. Now splitting time between his construction business in North Idaho and Southern California where his wife receives treatment, Zack opens up about the transformation from doing the right things to actually being present, learning to ask "what" instead of "why" when facing hardship, and discovering that his podcast interviewing special needs parents became unexpected training for finally seeing and hearing his own wife. He discusses the critical shift that happened six months ago when he truly embraced fatherhood in the hospital, realizing that if he didn't keep it together and lead, his family would fall apart. Zack vulnerably shares about living with in-laws for ten months, the reality of needing God moment-by-moment through daily challenges, and why he believes comfort is the enemy of growth for fathers.Guest LinksThe Unspecial Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-unspecial-podcast/id1829866470Instagram: @unspecialllc or @zackponderWebsite: unspecialllc.com---------Transform Your Body with Ned & RUK Fitness: RUK FitnessThis episode is sponsored by The Adventure of FatherhoodOrder The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?https://www.adventureoffatherhood.com/https://www.rebelandcreate.com/Each week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.

Originally released as Episode 453.What happens when a young girl's innocent day in the mud turns into a lifetime of terror? In this haunting episode, we meet Anne — a woman from North Idaho whose encounters with Bigfoot began at just four years old on the South Hill of Spokane. But this isn't just another sighting. From mind speak, violent night terrors, and dreams of giants to mysterious voices calling her dog's name in the woods — Anne's story spirals into chilling high strangeness that only intensifies over time. We explore the terrifying morning when a screaming cow elk may have witnessed her calf being taken... and a shadowy upright figure appeared in the snow. You'll hear about tree shakes, electronic sounds from the forest, dreams of protection, and an unsettling presence that never quite lets go. This is more than a cryptid tale. It's the story of a life marked by something watching. And waiting. Stay with us.

In this episode of Everyday Homesteading, we're taking the fear out of canning and putting confidence back in your kitchen. If you've ever thought, “I've tried so many tutorials and still don't feel like I actually know what I'm doing,” or “I'm terrified I'll waste good food or make my family sick,” this one is for you. I'm breaking canning safety down into simple, step-by-step principles so you can stock your shelves with jars you trust.What we coverWhy a sealed lid alone does not equal safe food, and what actually makes a jar shelf-stable.The pH "line in the sand" at 4.6, why it matters, and how it guides every canning decision.Exactly when boiling water bath canning is safe, and when you must pressure can.How heat, thickness, and circulation inside the jar impact safety.Common myths that lead to botulism risk, and the simple habits that keep you safe.Using approved recipes, what “acidifying” means for tomatoes and borderline foods.Reliable sources for tested recipes, so you're not stuck in conflicting advice.Key takeawaysHigh-acid foods can be safely water bath canned because molds and yeast are easy to kill at boiling temperatures.Low-acid foods like meats, vegetables, and most full-meal recipes require pressure canning to reliably reach about 250°F.Approved recipes exist to control pH, density, and processing time so you can stop guessing and start knowing.If you can follow a cake recipe, you will be able to can safely at home.Resources mentionedCheck out all our canning resources, and to watch this podcast episode, on the website here: Free Canning Safety Training for visual learners: https://homesteadingfamily.com/podcast-canningTrusted recipe sources: Ball Blue Book, the National Center for Home Food Preservation, and Homestead Kitchen Magazine's master-preserver approved recipesSponsor A big thank you to Azure Standard for making bulk, vetted pantry staples affordable.

Why do so many homesteaders quit before they ever see their gardens thrive or their shelves fill with home-canned food? In this episode of Everyday Homesteading, I sit down with my friend Melissa K. Norris to talk honestly about burnout, expectations that don't match real life, and the simple habits that make homesteading sustainable. We share personal stories, the mistakes we made, and the practical rhythms that helped us keep going. If you've felt overwhelmed, I want this conversation to remind you that homesteading is not about perfection. It is about purpose, persistence, and the joy that comes from doing the work with your own two hands. Check out the Homestead Kitchen Membership here: https://homesteadingfamily,com/podcast-homesteadkitchenmembership

In this episode of the Pantry Chat, I sit down with my friend Rory Groves from  @thegrovestead to talk about his family's journey from a tech career in the city to raising six kids on a homestead in Minnesota.Rory's story will resonate with anyone who's ever felt the tug to get out of the rat race and build something lasting with their family. What started with a single tomato plant on a city balcony turned into a thriving homestead of gardens, orchards, and livestock. But more than that, it turned into a way of life intentionally built around faith, family, and meaningful work.Rory is the author of Durable Trades and The Family Economy (links below), books that have encouraged thousands to think differently about how we live, work, and raise our children. In this conversation we dive into:- The slow, steady steps Rory and Becca took toward self-sufficiency- Why it's vital to build rhythms of joy into the homestead for our kids- What “durable trades” really mean and why they matter today- Rory's thoughts on AI, technology, and the need to preserve skills that last- Why homesteading isn't about escaping the world, but preserving something worth passing onCheck out the blog post for links and more information here: https://homesteadingfamily.com/preserving-a-way-of-life-with-rory-groves/Durable Trades: https://homesteadingfamily.com/durable-tradesThe Family Economy: https://homesteadingfamily.com/the-family-economyThis is about more than food or farming—it's about preserving culture, family, and faith for generations to come.Time Stamps:0:00 - Introduction0:49 - Lehman's1:50 - Main Topic~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~MORE ABOUT US!WELCOME!
