Have you felt it? Something is rippling through humanity at this moment. It's a stirring... a longing... a remembering. A sense that we are more capable than we’ve been led to believe. We want to feel alive, not sedated.. but we've lost our way. We've traded a life intertwined with nature for asphalt and artificial lights. We've swapped natural movement for a sedentary existence. We've given up food from the earth in favor of food from the factory. We've sacrificed our traditional skillsets for apps and gadgets. But while our overdose on modernity may have made us sick, there is an antidote. Join best-selling author and mentor, Jill Winger, each week as she digs into a different facet of the old-fashioned on purpose lifestyle.
Our modern era has wreaked havoc on many aspects of our health, but perhaps nothing is as concerning as what conventional life is doing to our guts.
In this podcast episode, I'm joined by holistic nutritionist and gut health guru Josh Dech to take a DEEP dive into why America has some of the worst gut health in the world. Josh is excellent at explaining these topics in a practical, tactical, and interesting way. Plus, he blew my mind with the facts around a common parasite-- don't miss this one!

It's every homesteader's dream to quit their job and become completely self-sufficient selling eggs & soap from their homestead.
The bad news? It's almost impossible to make a full-time income from selling eggs & soap.
The good news? It's entirely possible to make real money from your small farm-- you just need a strategy.
In this episode, I'm joined by farmer and business coach Michael Kilpatrick to bust through the common misconceptions around making money from a farm so you can make actual money instead!

In my travels across the Internet, I hear the topic of pollination coming up more and more. While I think most of us are aware of the decline in bee populations, I want to get to the heart of the issue today.
In this podcast episode, I'm joined by the brilliant Kim Eierman, author and ecological gardener, to discuss what’s really going on with the decrease in pollinators, how can we introduce plants into our gardens and landscapes that SOLVE problems, and how you can plant your own pollinator victory garden.
