Hi ladies, I'm really sorry that someone said to you that "You're not a real homesteader". It's obviously not true and was no doubt said carelessly by someone. I have to disagree with you though on the "I've been really busy" being a blanket statement for "I'm in demand" etc. I have both ASD and ADHD which comes with executive functioning disabilities. Time management is a major issue for many people because of these neurological developmental conditions. Hoping that Christy's advice will help.

What lies beneath part i & ii have been some of my most favourite episodes. I can't tell you how helpful these episodes have been. I've been struggling with my health for nearly 2 years now. Shaye, I absolutely love your idea of the gut health podcast. Angela, I've loved the fact that you're asking questions about perimenopause. That's where I am right now. All the questions were spot on and so helpful. I'd love to know if it is good for our guts to eat blue cheeses etc.
Angela Dyson
Loved this! I'm with you Shaye. bare feet on cool grass in summer. I have to say though I hate it if I'm bare feet in the kitchen trying to keep my feet cool and there are bits on the floor that get under my feet. I have sensory issues so the floor needs to be clear of crumbs or the house shoes must be on. I'm currently binge listening to your podcast ladies to catch up. I've been out of it all spring but was missing your podcasts and vids.

Fantastic podcast. As a gardening enthusiast, this is one of my favourite episodes. The quintessential cottage garden is the most relaxed of gardens as well as being one that is a pleasure to work in. There's such a vast variety of plants that the cottage gardener can include in their garden and you ladies hit the nail on the head with all that mentioned. Others would be lupins, nemesia, violas etc. So sorry to hear about your rose dilemma Shaye. I was so relieved for you that most came back.
Angela Dyson
Love this. Couldn't agree more about all the things that make a home feel like a home and I say every home should have a cat. 🥰
