À propos de cet audio

 Hey there, darling! My name is Jess. There was a time that all I wanted in the world was a little farm where I could raise my family and grow our food. Now, that's exactly what exists outside my door. In watching it unfold, a new dream was formed in my heart – to share this beautiful life with others and teach them the lessons we've learned along the way. Welcome to the Roots and Refuge podcast, friend. I am so glad you're here.2023

    Tending Whats In Your Reach
    May 14 2025
    Hey there darlings, welcome back to the Roots and Refuge Podcast. Today’s episode is one I recorded as much for myself as for you. It’s a message I wish 22-year-old me could have heard—back when my dreams felt so big and my limits felt so loud. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by what you can’t do, this episode is a gentle reminder that there’s sacred strength in doing what you can. I’m talking about tending your life like a garden—not in panic, not in perfection, but in presence. Whether you're in a season of limitations, raising babies, or just navigating a world that feels a bit too urgent, you’re not alone. There is wisdom in your limits. There is grace in your pace. And there is peace in choosing to be rooted right where you are. This conversation touches on preparation, presence, performance, and the quiet rebellion of slow living. Let it encourage you to stop striving, to tend with care, and to trust that what’s within your reach is enough. If you’ve found encouragement here, consider supporting the podcast on Patreon, where you can listen early and join our monthly Q&A. As always, I bless you until next time.

  • Motherhood: A Conversation with Regan

    Motherhood: A Conversation with Regan
    May 7 2025
    Hey there darlings, welcome back to the Roots and Refuge Podcast. In honor of Mother’s Day, I invited my sweet friend Regan on for a deeply personal and honest conversation about motherhood—what it teaches us, how it changes us, and how it shapes the lives we’re building. Regan is a new mom, and I’m just about to watch my oldest son turn twenty. We’re in such different seasons, but we share a love for this calling and the sacred work it requires. We talk about sacrifice and legacy, growing our families and ourselves, grief and hope, presence and responsibility. From baby challenges to homestead dreams, from sleepless nights to small victories, this conversation holds space for the beauty and hardship of being a mama in today’s world. If you’ve been longing for some solidarity and reflection in your motherhood journey—whether you're brand new to it or decades in—I hope you’ll sit with us a while. Also, if you’ve found encouragement here, consider supporting the podcast on Patreon, where you can listen early and join our monthly Q&A. As always, I bless you until next time. . Regan's writing can be found here: https://homemadehomestead.substack.com/profile/posts . A little note: We had some minor audio hiccups while recording—I'm trying out new software to bring remote guests on more regularly—but I didn’t want to toss out such a meaningful conversation. Thanks for your grace as we grow.

  • Rooted and Ready (Lets Talk Preparedness)

    Rooted and Ready (Lets Talk Preparedness)
    May 1 2025

    Hey y’all, welcome back to the Roots and Refuge Podcast!
    Let’s talk about preparedness, not the kind you see on sensational TV shows or fear-driven social media, but the kind that grows from peace, purpose, and love. In this episode I’m sharing my thoughts on what it really means to be rooted and ready in a world that feels increasingly uncertain. We’re talking food security, skill-building, and heart-centered home readiness—not panic, not hoarding, but stewardship and hope.

    I’ve distanced myself from the word “prepper” for a long time because of what it’s come to mean—but truthfully, I do believe in being prepared. Not with shelves full of stuff, but with dirt under your nails, knowledge in your heart, and the peace that comes from knowing you’ve stewarded well. Skills can’t be bought—but they can be cultivated. Let’s talk about how.

    Take a deep breath, friend. Let’s grow steady together.

    As always—I bless you, until next time.
