Home Management for Working Women (and Busy Moms): Redefining the word “Homemaker,” and Strategies to Rest in Your Role
Today we get a refreshing makeover of the word “homemaker.” Working women – and busy moms in general – can absolutely prioritize home management and nurturing their families well.
Episode # 102 – Home Management for Working Women and Busy Moms (part 1)
In this episode, I sit down with author, mom, and English professor Charity Gibson to dive into her inspiring and practical new book, The Working Homemaker: Employed Christian Moms Desiring a Thriving Home Life. With heartfelt honesty, Charity shares how she’s learned to redefine homemaking for working women, prioritize family, and pursue calling without guilt—all while juggling a full-time job and four children.
In this episode, we discuss the following topics related to home management for working women and busy moms:
- The myth of “balance” vs. the practice of harmonizing priorities
- How Christian women can know their “why” for working without guilt or pressure from cultural expectations
- A challenging but freeing reminder: “You don’t owe feminism a career.”
- The importance of co-parenting and letting go of micromanagement in the home
- The power of setting plates down—not just spinning them—and making time for what matters
