I have started unsuccessful businesses

[@hydspirit]

Lisa, please have your parents on, your dad's opinion on all his daughter's business ventures, his thoughts, your mom's insight into you raising your family different than how you were raised. Your husband's though process on your home business and his perspective on raising your family the way you both do, he is always working so hard in background building things or taking kids on trips or homeschooling, it would be such a blessing for him to share this and how your raising so many boys with such a strong hardworking father. Love your solo episodes, feels like a sisterly wisdom, keep them coming, your wise and such a inspiration.

[@yvettecarrasco]

I am looking forward to more solo episodes again even though I have enjoyed a number of the guests you’ve had since pausing the solo episodes.

[@Calledtodoso]

Yes ❤

[@SkySilver777]

yes I also prefer the solo chats

[@southloupriverhomestead4696]

I appreciate how respectfully you speak of your husband being your business partner. I have heard another large youtuber always speak as if it was all because of HER. SHE brought her husband home.

[@melissasaunders6942]

A coming to Christ testimony video is needed!! Please and thank you

[@GoKartMastersAcademy]

I love this episode-it just feels more like sitting and chatting with you. Our stories are SO similar over the past 15 years- even down to specific details like sewing on Etsy, trying to sell cloth diapers, building websites offline, the embarrassing blog spot blog that’s probably still floating around out there somewhere 🤣 I feel like we are BFFs. This was so encouraging to hear a similar experience and how all the failures turned into success. Our family business is completely different than yours-we sell go karts and parts online, but the idea of home and family and creating an intentional life is still so much part of our business!

[@ribbonriver]

I absolutely LOVED this. I prefer you talking over guests.

[@HollySutterfield]

I appreciate the honesty and how your families trajectory changed when you both became believers. Keep up the great content!

[@karabritch7834]

I love this so much! So inspiring! I highly recommend your blogging class (and KZbin class) I am finally monetized with Mediavine, and it is all Thanks to you and God! Because I had no clue how to even start. I just knew I needed a place to teach and share my recipes, troubleshooting, etc for my niche. It is funny to think I also started with sewing things and selling on Etsy, cant wait until I can "cut that arm" of the business off, lol. I have been doing that for 8 years. Passive income is truely a blessing. Thanks again! ❤️

[@thesmiths629]

27 minutes in was the most helpful advice I've heard. I don't have to feel bad for asking a price that's worth my time.

[@monicatorres4965]

I love to know a little bit more about your faith and early family years... very cool!

[@racheln4309]

Lisa there were so many moments I totally relate to in this one. So funny and sweet. I would love an episode about your conversion! I love to hear your testimony here and there.

[@craftynanatracy3108]

I love watching your day in the life videos, cleaning and cooking, time with your children, time management. They're helpful for me as motivational videos to accomplish the things I need to get done. I fall back into bad habits and get overwhelmed. Bless you Lisa I love your channel and I watch your sisters channel as well.❤❤

[@holliwaller2774]

I love to listen to you, when you talk alone or talk to other people. You are great at making us all feel the power to overcome. That all these things mom's go through, it's OK and it will all work out and we can overcome everything. I want to be the kind of friend to others that makes them feel this way. You are a blessing to us all. And I appreciate all you do. ❤️

[@robynlee5436]

I'm sold! I'm going to try your blogging course. Even though I'm a nurse and I don't feel like I have much to offer I definitely want to try this

[@just_me_marla7310]

As a nurse, I can say, you have a lot to offer! Our entire careers center around education. Health, lifestyle, stress relief, etc. You got this!

[@robynlee5436]

@@just_me_marla7310 wow thanks for the encouragement. I appreciate that! Never thought about that.

[@crterwil]

Love this. My grandmother sewed for hours with my dad and aunt on her lap.

[@Wellnessuntamed]

I learned the “I’m coming back” lesson also when I was a vendor at our local farmers market when I grew veg and herbs to sell. 🤦‍♀️

[@kaleyjanenigh]

I would love to see Dawn Madsen on again! You two are my favorite people ever!

[@clairejones5373]

Definitely have Dawn back ❤

Dawn from Minimal Mom and Sally Clarkson ❤❤❤

[@cinders302]

I'm one of those who just learned of this channel within the past month

[@DavidPeterson-s1b]

I didn’t find your podcast until a week ago! I had boys, yes,boys are created by God to jump, run, yell, be noisy, climb trees, ..in my case, my youngest boy made paths through the woods that connected our property to his best friend’s backyard! They loved being out in the woods, and now when he comes home from his home and family in a town north of Atlanta, he always goes into the woods,he brings home his latest chainsaw and takes down a few trees while they are here! It warmed my heart this Thanksgiving we all were walking on Alan’s “paths” , his daughter ,who is 17 said, “Papa, is there animals in these woods?” “Yes, there are rabbits, squirrels, bird, deer, racoons, chipmunks and bear..” which, at that point, she goes, “nanny and me are going back to the house” . I hated to tell her those same critters were also found in our western Pennsylvania yard!

[@TropicalCrumpet]

Thank you for this Lisa. I've been trying over the years to make a business for myself to no avail whilst I had young children. But I shall try again. I'm currently 30 and want to set the firework off this year, so thanks again for the motivation to keep going.

[@katherinechatham9032]

Hearing about your Christian journey is gold to me. I am a Born Again Christian looking for the return of the Lord, which I feel could happen at any time. I could look at your videos and feel that you are a Christian. It’s refreshing to me. Your KZbin channel is one of the few I have followed. I have learned so much! It’s a joy to continue learning about things you do and use them even though my children are grown. I share recipes with them and ideas you have. I spent the past 17 years caring for my parents. My father, a Baptist Minister died 6 years ago of Alzheimer’s. My mother passed away in July and had some dementia at the end. I feel now I can spend my time learning from people like you about things I would have loved to do when I was younger. It’s a blessing to listen to you and see the things you do. Thank you for your channel. Keep going and God bless you and your entire family.

[@Simplefarmhouselife]

Thank you so much!

[@marishapeters1647]

I love listening to you talk about your business! Would love to have more episodes on business and entrepreneurship!

[@LouieEB7]

Oh my goodness, I love this video! I became a mom in 2006, just had baby #7 almost 4 months ago and I did so many similar things over the years. Got into photography, started crocheting hats as it was all the rage for baby photos, I never did try selling any. I remember the really fluffy petti skirts, I made one thinking I’d be able to make and sell on Etsy for $100 but by the time I finished I said never again! I quickly realized why they were so pricey. I tried sewing my own cloth diapers with snaps. I remember Amy Butler fabrics! I tried making a blog about homeschooling and motherhood but I didn’t continue. I wish I had continued trying! I have considered starting a channel but I am so shy and I have zero idea what I would vlog about. I truly enjoy your channel and love all that you share. I think it’s great you kept trying and how it has paid off for you and your family! Very inspiring!

[@JacquiSpies-l5z]

Every time I watch your channel it puts a smile on my face. Thank you for sharing your tips and little parts your life!

[@Simplefarmhouselife]

I'm so glad!

[@jessicabuche6722]

I would love to hear your whole testimony!

[@phaedragardeness]

I’ve watched your other channel for a long time now and spotted you doing this podcast! I feel like I’ve been on a similar journey- gathering snippets of business education via a heap of different little businesses along the way. I just still haven’t stumbled on my “thing” yet. But I feel like I’m close. This was really good. I also love how you are just “you” here in the podcast. Whereas on your Boon channel it’s you as a more polished version (which I also love. But nice to see the extra bits of personality here).

[@miguelinabnasr3719]

Love your words when mentioning making your farmhouse/home is wherever you are living at the time; thanks so much for saying that I feel the same way what is of value is to live a wholesome natural lifestyle, making the best choices when choosing what to eat, how to clean, or decorate, these are the things that make life richer. Having goals is amazing especially when they are joint with your spouse/significant other they have the fuel to become accomplished because you're helping each other stay motivated and continue

[@mum2jka]

I appreciate your openness and feel as though I have learned so much about you as a person. I really enjoyed listening to this podcast. You mentioned how you keep your costs down, that you don't just spend all the money you earn. I appreciate you have no mortgage but I would like an example of the breakdown on your monthly outgoings especially with your focus being on organic produce as well as getting used objects to furnish your beautiful home. Things have become so expensive. Would you be willing to breakdown how much you spend on food (long term and short term storage), fuel, property taxes, home school expenses, homestead equipment and DIY projects? Edited to add I too enjoy cooking from scratch and try to go local and seasonal on fresh produce. But costs have risen rapidly, including fuel. How do you balance these rising prices with everything else. Or have you found that because you mill your own grain, milk your own cow, collect your own eggs, your costs have really changed?

[@Mary_Quaid]

FANTASTIC video! Been with you since the beginning. Love, love, love these solo episodes. Would love to have Carly from CJ LA on your podcast to talk about capsule wardrobes and how to dress stylish as a busy mom. 💗

[@Zuzia-l5b]

I love to listen about your life, your experiencies.

[@RobinSongsAreMagical]

It's lovely that you shared, @Lisa, thanks. Remember to retain aspects of family life and your finances in the realm of personal and private.

[@itsnellmarie]

Lisa, it's content like this that keeps me motivated as a new blogger. Thank you so much for sharing your story and I hope to hear even more! I love the solo episodes!

[@morningstarhomestead]

I'd like to hear a bit more on your KZbin journey. I love listening to you talking about your business! You are very practical and it's refreshingly simple after hearing all these gurus talk about a million confusing strategies

[@rosatasayco9172]

I would love a testimony video on how you came to faith ❤

[@cindyflinchbaugh7155]

Lisa, you make this sound pretty simple but I know it's awesome dedication. Thank you

[@victoriadavidenko4695]

I first discovered you when you were selling pillow covers on your website. My style has definitely shifted away from the farmhouse aesthetic, but I still really enjoy your content and love seeing your family and business grow.

[@Abeautifulmundanelife]

Thanks for sharing all of this! Yes, glory to God in it all! I too have an entrepreneurial mindset and enjoy it. I’m currently saving up to buy your course bundle as I just started my KZbin channel.

I really enjoyed this episode! I’m currently working through your blogging masterclass! I’m learning so much! I can’t wait to get mine up and going 💗

[@cinders302]

Minus 5 out and the kids don't play outside? Lol Oh good Lord, get them some proper winter outerwear and boot them out the door! Lol They will get used to it, and be grateful. Let them play hockey out on your laneway. Here in Canada, most of the country gets cold to extremely cold. Cold is anything beyong -20 Celsius, and though colder at -25C, you still find some die hard kids, AND adults, out tobogganing, skiing, or playing outdoor hockey (often with a little shed for warm-up or trips in andnout of the house for hot cocoa. Bear in mind that windchill has an effect so the activities mentioned doesn't marn that we go out in -25C on every occurrence. Extremely cold is -25 and over -stay indoors and read or play a game. Lol Thx for your channel Lisa!

[@Jaxk06]

I’m a pretty quiet viewer but I love your videos even though I’m plant based. I have 3 children, 7, 3 and 1. I have such a hard time with time management…I really want to start making an income from home while still homeschooling and being with my children my management skills need to be worked on. I crochet but I’m slower with it and I can’t have my boys together without them killing each other lol but honestly I want to do this so much….

[@Simplefarmhouselife]

The best advice I can give is to just give your ideas a try, don't be afraid of failing....failure is your chance to learn and then keep trying.

Very interesting and informative Lisa. I watched from another channel and am commenting from this channel. As someone who has taken your blogging course, I can only attest to the value of it. The course contains a lot of information and is well presented. Although I did things a little differently for various reason's than you suggest, it got me started. For various reasons, I let the blogging slide the last months but the nice thing is that I can go back to the course for the kick in the pants I may need.
