Living Free in Tennessee - Nicole Sauce

Today is a thought of the walk day and I thought it would be a great time, among all the covid panic to explore the concept of champagne and hookers that i covered in my debt payoff episode a little more deeply.

Today I want to do another segment in the series of developing and managing a responsible pantry. I we will cover how to stock your pantry without running to the store and spending $1000 with a concept called “doubling”, as well as why you may want to start a pantry journal for a time.

There are so many new listeners that I thought it would be worthwhile to talk about our tagline: Helping you build the life you choose on your terms. Lots of people think this podcast is about homesteading, about cooking good food,  about liberty and freedom - and it is. We do tons on starting and growing your own business, side hustles and more. But when you dig right into things a little deeper, you will discover the LFTN is about choosing the life you want to live, then setting yourself up to go there.

Today, we are joined by Jenni Hill as she talks about how she uses journaling and focusing on a single word of focus each year to guide her growth.

Today, we talk about how ready we were here at the Holler Homestead for the aftermath of the Tennessee tornadoes and what you can learn for that as you build the ability to make it through similar events at your home or on your homestead. I will come at this with my homestead as the example but also keeping in mind that many of you live in a city and have different realities.

Last week’s shows seemed to shake comments out of the trees, so today I will share some feedback with y’all as well as further thoughts on the following topics: Preparing for Coronavirus #Mythreethings, what it is and how it works -- and why even try it? Conquering your debt monster (We had tons of input on this one

Today is a Thought of the Walk (TOTW) day and I had a good one ready on champagne and hookers, but with so many folks panicking about the corona virus, I decided to do a show on how to prepare for the corona virus in 7 days if you are not already prepared.

Today, we are joined by the Tactical Redneck and Sir Handy to discuss something nearer and dearer to my heart  - 5 things everyone should know about plumbing even if you never ever ever ever plan to do any plumbing whatsoever.

I wanted to take on an issue we have sort of glossed over lately: Debt payoff. When I was talking with Beau a few weeks ago, I realized that as much as I say you need to be debt free to truly be free to live the life you want, we haven’t discussed the how of this.

Today is a Friday so we have an interview show today and we are joined by our own BBQ Homesteader, also known as Daniel Jarvis, to talk about starting your business and more importantly how to get over analysis paralysis if you tend to overthink things. We also dive into establishing work family balance and much more - I am sure you will love this interview.

The pantry here has been working well and getting a pantry to work for you rather than become a stuff collecting problem, you may need to do a purge and organize. So today we talk about how to take this on.

Springtime is threatening to be here and that means that things are on fast forward at the Holler Homestead so we will talk through a round robin of projects and events that have happened here in the last few weeks - along with related lessons learned. Because there is always something interesting on a homestead.

Today, I talk to Tom Cunningham, a fellow with a new platform that will link consumers directly to farmers for purchasing food. Think AirBnB of meat - a platform called Grazr. He is planning to launch right here in Middle Tennessee, but this interview covers food freedom, a bit about rolling out software based business, and more.

Today we talk with Mama Sauce about how to get started with knitting. Knitting is something I tried to be interested in when I was younger but I never caught the bug. Now that I am older and less interested in watching movies, it might be time to give it another go.

Today we talk about the importance of evaluating how long things truly take - both large projects and small tasks - because understanding this can set you free of being owned by your to do list. And life is way better if you own yourself and your time, not the other way around.
