Description
Send me a text about this episode!
For this Homemaker Portrait, I chat with my friend, Karen Sheppard, about homemaking through generations. Karen is a veteran homemaker who has cultivated a place to belong not just for herself and her husband, but for her children and her grandchildren. Just as she was deeply influenced by her grandmother, Karen works to influence her grandchildren and hopefully, one day, her great-grandchildren. Her story is a testimony to the value of investing in the future by practicing the art of home.
