Hillary Boucher was one of my first “online friends.” We met about five years ago through natural parenting discussion forum and she has been part of my world ever since.
Hillary’s words comfort and support me, while at the same time provoking me and encouraging me to grow and look at things from different angles.
I am grateful to have her in my life and delighted to share this space with her.
In this show Hillary and I talk surprise pregnancies, small business start-up, saving the midwives, taking a break from blogging and much, much more!
This show was recorded earlier this month and is about 45 minutes long.

When I visit Rachel Turiel’s beautiful blog, 6512 and Growing, I never know if I will laugh or cry (or both) but I always know that I will be moved deep within my soul.
Rachel’s gorgeous words and photos inspire me to keep writing, to keep moving forward towards my homesteading dreams, and to remember to put all the project lists aside and savor the sweet and tender moments with my children.
In this show, Rachel and I talk homeschooling, homesteading and hunting. (And road kill, of course.) We also talk overwhelm, small spaces, the early years of parenting and why it is so important to have time away from our children.
This show was recorded in February, 2012 and is about 45 minutes long.

I have had the pleasure of communicating with Caroline Starr Rose via blog comments and e-mail exchanges for several years, but to finally get to speak with her was a dream come true.
Caroline’s first novel, May B., which is written in gorgeous flowing verse, was released last month and in this episode of Behind the Blog Caroline and I talk writing, mothering, perseverance and following our dreams — and much, much more!
This show was recorded in January, 2012 and is just over 40 minutes long.

Caroline Starr Rose spent her childhood in the deserts of Saudi Arabia and New Mexico, camping at the Red Sea in one and eating red chile in the other. As a girl, she danced ballet, raced through books by Laura Ingalls Wilder, and put on magic shows in a homemade cape. She has taught social studies and English, and worked to instill in her students a passion for books, an enthusiasm for experimenting with words, and a curiosity about the past.
She lives in New Mexico with her husband and two sons.

I truly don’t remember how I first connected with Nicola of Which Name? but what I do remember is feeling an instant connection to her and her family.
I love Nicola’s writing, her photography, her recipes, her tutorials…but most of all, I love her honesty and her beautiful outlook on life.
In this podcast Nicola and I talk budgeting, birthday parties, privacy and photo permission. (And so much more.)
This show was recorded in December, 2011 and is just over 40 minutes long.

Nicola lives in Northern California with her husband and two young children.
Her family strives toward balance in their frugal and earth friendly urban life. She spends her days chasing kids, enjoying bits of nature, and avoiding laundry.
She writes and crafts whenever she can squeeze it in and she blogs about it all at Which Name?

When I first began to dream up this podcast, I immediately thought of Hannah; my dear friend, colleague, coach and constant source of inspiration.

And I think you are really going to like what she has to say.
This show was recorded in June, 2011.
