  • Homesteading on a Budget: Practical Tips to Grow Self-Sufficiency with Less Money
    In this episode, I’m opening up with a little encouragement and honesty—because homesteading doesn’t have to be picture-perfect to be meaningful. I’m talking about redefining what homesteading looks like when money’s tight, and how purpose-driven hustle can still lead to big wins. I share real, practical tips on cutting costs through cooking from scratch, bartering and trading, offering labor in exchange for goods or knowledge, and sourcing what you need for free or cheap. It’s all about building self-sufficiency and community, on your terms. Sponsored by BaseCampEd - It Takes a Village, Build Yours Today!
