Why ‘Daily Bread’ Matters: Faith, Food Security & Letting Go of Control 217. Why ‘Daily Bread’ Matters: Faith, Food Security & Letting Go of Control Michelle Visser In this deeply personal Easter episode of Simple Doesn’t Mean Easy, Michelle shares a powerful reflection on faith, hardship, and the true meaning of provision. Walking through a painful season involving a loved one’s wrongful incarceration, she explores the Biblical story of manna and what it reveals about our modern obsession with self-sufficiency.


From food storage and wheat berries to the limits of prepping, this episode challenges the idea that we can fully provide for ourselves. Instead, it offers a refreshing perspective on daily dependence, community support, and trusting God through uncertainty.


Whether you're interested in real food, homesteading, or deeper life meaning, this episode will shift how you think about “daily bread.”


It turns out gratitude exists alongside suffering—not after it.


And true preparedness is learning skills and sharing, not hoarding.

She Reversed ‘Chronic Illness’—Doctors Missed This Root Cause 216. She Reversed ‘Chronic Illness’—Doctors Missed This Root Cause Michelle Visser In this episode of Simple Doesn’t Mean Easy, Michelle sits down with holistic health educator Karen “Zuzu” Arms to explore the powerful connection between the nervous system and chronic illness.

Through deeply personal stories—including their daughters’ serious health struggles—they uncover how many conditions may be rooted in nervous system dysfunction rather than isolated symptoms.

They break down why inflammation isn’t always the enemy, how diet directly impacts cellular and neurological health, and why modern medicine often misses the bigger picture.

This conversation challenges conventional thinking and offers a fresh perspective on healing—focusing on root causes, simple lifestyle shifts, and the body’s incredible ability to recover.

How Food Is Secretly Affecting Your Child’s Behavior (What Moms Need to Know) 215. How Food Is Secretly Affecting Your Child’s Behavior (What Moms Need to Know) Michelle Visser In this episode, Michelle sits down with Amy Sprouse, a holistic health educator who studied public health at Johns Hopkins, to explore the powerful connection between gut health, nutrition, and children’s behavior.


They break down details about processed foods' effects on children that you haven't thought about yet—and what parents can do about it.


Amy shares a fresh perspective on why kids today aren’t just “overstimulated,” but often physically under-stimulated, and how this imbalance affects the nervous system. The conversation also dives into the role of the microbiome, inflammation, and missing beneficial bacteria in shaping emotional regulation. If you've wondered how to improve child behavior naturally, why kids are always sick, or about foods that affect kids mood, this is a must listen.


Most importantly, this episode offers simple, realistic steps for moms—from improving breakfast choices to supporting gut health with fiber and probiotics—without overwhelm.


If you’ve ever wondered how much your child’s behavior could be linked to what they eat, this episode is a must-listen.


And moms, you don’t need to change everything overnight—small changes over time matter most.

Big Food Is Engineering Your Cravings (Former Insider Reveals How) 214. Big Food Is Engineering Your Cravings (Former Insider Reveals How) Michelle Visser In this episode of Simple Doesn’t Mean Easy, Michelle Visser speaks with former food industry consultant Dr. Glenn Livingston, who once advised major food corporations on how to sell more processed foods.


Dr. Livingston reveals how processed foods are intentionally engineered to keep consumers eating. From strategic packaging and advertising psychology to subtle flavor variations within a single bag of chips, food companies use sophisticated techniques to trigger our brain’s natural instincts for variety and reward.


The conversation also explores how marketing claims—such as “made with avocado oil” or “no artificial dyes”—can make ultra-processed foods appear healthier than they really are.


Dr. Livingston explains why processed foods create powerful cravings and why reducing them can dramatically improve eating habits. He also shares practical tools to help people regain control over their food choices and stop rationalizing unhealthy habits.


This episode offers an eye-opening look into the psychology and science behind modern processed foods—and how to break free from their grip.

Michelle Visser In this episode of Simple Doesn’t Mean Easy, Michelle Visser breaks down a major problem with current dietary guidelines: the confusing advice to eat more “whole grains.”


Most shoppers assume that choosing whole wheat bread at the grocery store means they are making a healthier choice. But Michelle explains that many commercial breads labeled “whole wheat” are still made from refined flour and contain a long list of dough conditioners, preservatives, and emulsifiers designed for industrial baking.


She explores the hidden ingredients often found in store-bought bread, how they affect gut health, and why modern wheat products can contribute to gluten sensitivities.


Michelle also shares why fresh-milled flour and true whole grains provide more nutrients and support a healthier gut microbiome.


Most importantly, she encourages listeners to approach real food changes with baby steps, focusing on progress rather than perfection.


The current dietary guidelines encourage eating more whole grains, but most people misunderstand what that means.


Most “whole wheat” bread in grocery stores is still made with refined flour, with bran added back in.


Store-bought bread often contains chemical dough enhancers, emulsifiers, and preservatives.


These ingredients are designed to:


-extend shelf life


-standardize machine production


-create uniform texture and appearance.Learn how to use fresh milled flour: https://graceful-base-213.myflodesk.com/k36hnsvbh7

Another Thing the New Food Pyramid Got Wrong 211. Another Thing the New Food Pyramid Got Wrong Michelle Visser In this episode of Simple Doesn’t Mean Easy, Michelle breaks down why eggs may be the most underrated high-quality protein available today. With 97% digestibility and all nine essential amino acids, eggs provide complete protein in one simple, affordable food.


But the real surprise? Eggs are one of the most bioavailable sources of lutein — a powerful carotenoid that protects eye health, filters blue light, and helps reduce age-related macular degeneration.


Michelle also compares free-range eggs to conventional store-bought eggs, explaining differences in omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamin E, and yolk color. She shares personal experience raising backyard chickens in New England, discusses preserving eggs through freeze drying, and ends with a simple, family-favorite egg soufflé recipe.


If you want to prioritize high-quality protein the simple way — this episode is for you.

The Truth About the Food Pyramid + How I Preserved $6,000 in Real Food 210. The Truth About the Food Pyramid + How I Preserved $6,000 in Real Food Michelle Visser Are expensive “healthy” snacks actually wrecking your gut — and your budget?

Let's down the new food pyramid and dietary guidelines — what they got right, what still needs work, and why avoiding ultra-processed foods is the biggest win for your health.

But here’s the practical part: instead of just saying “stop eating processed food,” Michelle shares 3 powerful food preservation methods that make real food convenient, affordable, and long-lasting:

✔️ Fermenting for gut health

✔️ Dehydrating for space-saving storage

✔️ Freeze drying for healthy snacks you'll crave

You’ll hear how she preserved over 300 quarts of food — valued at nearly $6,000 — and how small, steady steps over time can transform your pantry and your family’s health.

If you want to eat less processed food without overwhelm, this episode gives you a real-life roadmap.

The FDA Got Gluten Wrong — Why Gluten-Free Foods May Be Making You Sicker 209. The FDA Got Gluten Wrong — Why Gluten-Free Foods May Be Making You Sicker Michelle Visser Is gluten really the problem—or have we been blaming the wrong thing all along?


This week, the FDA made headlines with a new move on gluten labeling, and many people celebrated it as a major win. But today we're going to break down why this decision won’t actually make us healthier—and may even make things worse.


If you’ve gone gluten-free and still don’t feel great…

If you’ve been told gluten is toxic…

If you rely on “gluten-free” foods to feel better…


This episode is for you.


Michelle breaks down:


Why gluten itself isn’t the real enemy


How modern flour processing destroyed wheat’s nutrition


Why gluten-free processed foods may be more inflammatory than regular junk food


What fresh-milled flour, ancient grains, and whole wheat berries change in your body


And why the grocery store’s gluten-free aisle is giving people false hope


This is a deep dive into food science, grain history, gut health, and why real solutions won’t come from Big Food—or the FDA.


🎧 If you care about real food, real health, and reclaiming your kitchen, you don’t want to miss this one.

While applauding the new emphasis on protein, healthy fats, and real food, Michelle explains why food sourcing is the missing piece of the conversation. She unpacks why not all produce is nutritious, how meat labeling has misled consumers for years, and why fresh-milled flour made from properly sourced grains should not be lumped in with refined carbohydrates.


The episode closes with an encouraging, honest message for overwhelmed families: real food should support your life—not dominate it. Progress, not perfection, is the goal.

The Truth About Wood Heat (It’s Not What You’ve Been Told) 206. The Truth About Wood Heat (It’s Not What You’ve Been Told) Michelle Visser Wood heat has been labeled dirty, dangerous, and outdated—but is it true?


In this episode, Michelle talks with Patrick Sieben, certified heater mason and Vice President of the Masonry Heater Association of North America, to unpack the myths surrounding wood burning. Patrick explains how masonry heaters, commonly used across Europe, burn wood so efficiently that they produce little to no smoke, use far less fuel, and provide steady, radiant heat.


Find out why wood heat has been demonized, how improper burning practices skew the data, and why countries like Austria successfully heat millions of homes with responsibly managed wood.


From creosote myths to forest management, energy independence, and safer heating for families, this conversation challenges everything you think you know about heating your home.


If you care about self-reliance, clean energy, resilient living, and questioning mainstream narratives, this episode will change how you see wood heat forever.

Yes, they're putting human hair & duck feathers in our bread Michelle Visser Have you ever wondered when and why the U.S. government started regulating our flour? And what "enriching" it really entails? In this episode, Michelle delves into the history and nuances of flour with Gary Leavitt, President of Nutrimill.


Join us as we explore the significance of flour, the techniques of milling, and the devastating nutritional impact "enriched" flour has had on multiple generations. Find out about the shift from whole grains to processed foods, the role of government regulations in flour production, and the modern implications of consuming refined flour.


You'll also love this look into the renaissance of milling and the homesteading movement, emphasizing the importance of real food in our diets.


And don't miss the fascinating insight into dough enhancers that mean we're consuming human hair, duck feathers, and other truly gross things in our modern bread.

Ditch Store Oats: Mill Your Own for Max Nutrition 197. Ditch Store Oats: Mill Your Own for Max Nutrition Michelle Visser Maybe you already know all the nutritional reasons to bake with fresh flour, but did you know the same benefits go hand-in-hand with flaking oats at home?

The lousy results of processing flour mirror the same results with oats you buy at the store: old-fashioned oats, rolled oats, and quick oats are all highly processed and void of nutrients.

This episode gives some practical advice on how to flake oats for maximum nutrients. It covers the variety of grains that can be used, and explains the benefits of fresh flaking oats. Michelle shares tips on choosing and using an oat flaker and offers alternatives with things you already have in your kitchen. Michelle also discusses flaking other grains, provides recipe ideas for nutrient-rich breakfasts, and promotes her resources like Fresh Flour University for deeper insights into whole-grain baking and health.

The Ultimate Guide to Sugars (& which ones are killing us), with David Stelzer of Azure Standard 195. The Ultimate Guide to Sugars (& which ones are killing us), with David Stelzer of Azure Standard Michelle Visser Processed sugars are killing us.

In today's episode, David Stelzer explains why they will never sell conventional refined white sugar (it's insane). David is the founder of a family-run food supply company who has been working to change the broken food system in the U.S.

And I'm picking David's brain about every detail of all the sweetener options.

David dives into why conventional sugar production utilizes damaging practices like glyphosate spraying, artificial fertilizers, and burning leaves.

How 90% of our cheese was developed by Pfizer, a discussion with Robyn Jackson of Cheese From Scratch Michelle Visser Did you know all cheese is, essentially, made with 4 ingredients? And did you know that one of those ingredients has been outsourced to Pfizer?

Okay, not exactly, but essentially. When you start to research today’s topic– fpc rennet –you will find yourself down a dark rabbit hole without much transparency.

In today’s episode, Robyn Jackson, of Cheese From Scratch, opens this can of worms with us.


Join in as Robyn:

--walks us through the history of rennet

--explains why rennet is essential in cheese

--describes 3 ways that rennet is made, including one that’s the same as Ma Ingalls used in Little House in the Big Woods

--describes what happened in the 70s that drastically threatened the world of cheesemaking

--tells us what pfizer did in the 90s that changed everything

--assures us that, in addition to making our own cheese, there is one thing we can do to avoid GMO-derived cheese


So whether you want to learn to make your own, or you just buy some cheese sometimes, this episode is for you!

Not sure if it’s “worth the effort”? Not sure if you should even bother with a seemingly “unimportant” project, goal, or personal milestone? 

This Independence Day week I have 2 stories to share with you that never made it to a history book. One about a Founding Father you’ve never heard of & another about a seemingly unimportant effort made by a founding lady you know very well.

William Whipple and Martha Washington have something to tell you today… through their simple yet impactful actions, they emphasized the importance of taking small steps towards personal growth and building a legacy. 

If you want to embrace simplicity in your lives, if you want to start truly appreciating the small stuff, these two uneventful stories may encourage you to make meaningful change..

Food dyes, the FDA & what it all really means 162. Food dyes, the FDA & what it all really means Michelle Visser If some details about food dyes and artificial ingredients and the FDA all left you scratching your head this last week, this episode will help you sort through the facts.


We'll discuss recent FDA announcements about synthetic food dyes & what they REALLY mean... the good, the bad, and all the other things rolling around in my brain today.


First and foremost, we need to be vigilant about food ingredients.


Our conversation today explores the FDA's response to food safety concerns, the impact of synthetic dyes on our health, and some great suggestions for all of us for natural alternatives.


Michelle encourages listeners to make small, manageable changes in their diets and always diligently being aware of Big Food's marketing tactics.


The FDA's recent announcements about synthetic food dyes are significant, but what does it all really mean for the average consumer?


Thankfully, consumer awareness is growing and many folks are more concerned about the safety of food ingredients.


That, combined with the fact that small changes in dietary habits can lead to significantly better health outcomes, and the fact that natural alternatives to food dyes can be used creatively in cooking and baking (we discuss many in this episode), gives us reason to see this week's announcement from the FDA as a win.


But the food industry often prioritizes profit over consumer health and the Delaney Clause, which we dive into in this episode, aims to protect the public from harmful additives but has grave limitations.

Why cheap meat should scare you 158. Why cheap meat should scare you Michelle Visser Would you like to be able to decipher the marketing ploys of the food industry? Would you like to know how to feed your family better quality meat while wading through the greenwashed terms?


If you've ever wondered what questions you can (& should!) ask of your meat suppliers, this episode is a must listen!


Doug Stonebreaker is answering all this and more in today's episode.


Doug is a life-long rancher and the Director of Supply Chain for 99 Counties--a one-of-its-kind platform that is connecting consumers to quality meats, from small, regenerative family farms in the midwest.


Doug shares his insights on the complexities of ranching, sustainable agriculture, and the challenges of sourcing quality meat. He also highlights the role of 99 Counties in supporting small regenerative farmers and addresses the overwhelming influence of big agriculture on the food supply chain.


We discuss the challenges faced by small farmers and the importance of understanding food labels and certifications. We dig into organic and grass-fed standards, the need for transparency in meat supply, and the evolution of sustainable practices in agriculture.

Red Dye No. 3 ban & what it REALLY means 151. Red Dye No. 3 ban & what it REALLY means Michelle Visser Today we discuss the recent FDA announcement banning Red Dye Number 3, reflecting on the broader implications for food safety and consumer awareness. We chat about the need for vigilance in food choices, the importance of natural alternatives to food dyes, and the responsibility we have as consumers.


Some Takeaways:

-The FDA's ban on Red Dye Number 3 is a small step in food safety.

-It took over 30 years for this dye to be banned.

-There are 36 food dyes approved by the FDA, many of which are synthetic.

-Natural alternatives to food dyes are available & I share 5 of my favorites.

-Choosing healthier food options is a personal responsibility.

-It's important to find joy in making small changes to our diets.

-The food industry may take this opportunity to mislead consumers even more about healthy choices.

-Living a healthy life requires effort, but it is definitely rewarding.

PODCAST do this in emails!

hundreds of episodes later, I’ve created a digital sea of conversations that are so incredibly special… and I’m excited to share them with YOU!

Let’s dive into YOUR specially curated podcast playlist! Press play on these (or download to listen later!) so you can make some progress even while you fold laundry or walk the dog. :)




In this episode, we discuss the FDA's approval process and the loopholes that allow potentially harmful ingredients to be included in the food we eat and the cosmetics we use.


I share the story of a popular food brand that had to recall a product due to severe health issues caused by one ingredient. One that was "FDA approved."


Join me as we talk about small ways we can be vigilant about the food we consume.

Are heavy metals in salt killing us? | Debunking 3 Myths with Darryl Bosshardt 142. Are heavy metals in salt killing us? | Debunking 3 Myths with Darryl Bosshardt Michelle Visser In this episode, we're joined by renowned salt expert, Darryl Bosshardt, who is debunking 3 common myths surrounding salt. We discuss the misconceptions about salt's health effects and the reality of heavy metals found in salt.


We touch on the historical context of dietary recommendations and the impact of processed foods on our health, we discuss the importance of trace elements in natural food, debunk misconceptions about iodine, and emphasize the benefits of consuming natural, unprocessed foods.


We explore the advantages of choosing real foods over processed alternatives, advocating for a return to clean eating and sustainable practices.


Lots more info here: https://soulyrested.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-salt-with-darryl-bosshardt-of-redmond-real-salt-s7-e1/


Just a few takeaways you gain after joining in on this conversation:


-While processed foods contain unhealthy levels of refined salt, natural salt is essential for our health.

-Heavy metals are present in all real foods, not just salt.

-Eating a balanced diet can mitigate heavy metal exposure.

-Natural foods contain trace amounts of metals, but our bodies can process them.

-Iodine is crucial for thyroid health, but iodized salt is not the best source.

-The iodine added to table salt is less than 10% bioavailable.

-It's important to be aware of the source of your food and its processing.

This study in 1954 was the beginning of the anti-salt craze, when rats were fed copious (I’m talking insane) amounts of salt: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/13196737/


This study found that people eating less than recommended sodium had a 19% HIGHER risk of dangerous heart-related events: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22110105/


This study found that for the general population, there is no significant risk of either immediately developing or worsening any existing heart health issues via sodium: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/article-abstract/2712563?guestAccessKey=8d6f8001-a1f8-4372-b8b9-a7d935d5d7a4&utm_source=silverchair&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=article_alert-jamainternalmedicine&utm_content=olf&utm_term=110518

Today I'm chatting with Haley Scheich, author and cofounder of My Superhero Foods, a wellness brand that teaches kids and families about the powers of real food.

She spent 10 years at Pfizer and another 2 years in a Masters in Dietetics program before she woke up to all the delusions of Big Food, Big Pharma and Big Ag.

In today’s episode, Haley talks about her experiences at Pfizer, and her awakening to the importance of real food. 

We explores the impact of pharmaceutical sales, the need for holistic nutrition, and the role doctors should take (but often don’t) in promoting real food. 


We also discuss:

the health benefits of outdoor work 

the impact of simple lifestyle changes

the importance of setting kids up for success

the importance of real, whole foods

why kids should be avoiding ultra-processed foods

the role of parents in shaping their children's eating habits 

the impact of early exposure to healthy eating. 


We also discuss the challenges of navigating food choices at grandparents' houses and the importance of educating children about the effects of different foods on their bodies.

Six things I've learned as an accidental homesteader 110. Six things I've learned as an accidental homesteader Michelle Visser In this episode, I'm dishing out the insider details... I'm sharing six things I've learned as an accidental homesteader over the past 10 years.


The article this episode is based on: https://soulyrested.com/2015/11/30/following-directions-part-1/


A Homestead Checklist for every season: https://soulyrested.com/2020/08/23/a-homestead-checklist-for-every-season/


6 Ways to Start Homesteading BEFORE you own land: https://soulyrested.com/2021/02/28/6-ways-to-start-homesteading-before-you-even-own-land/


We discuss the therapeutic benefits of simple living, the importance of slowing down, the value of documenting experiences, the realization that goals may look different than expected, and the significance of delighting in the journey rather than just the destination.


I share how I have learned over the years to trust in God's timing, find joy in the process, and relish in the opportunity to help others along the way.


We discuss how simple living can be therapeutic and life-changing in our modern society of constant stress and how slowing down and focusing on simple joys brings lasting happiness and fulfillment.


We walk though the fact that documenting experiences is important for personal growth and for sharing with future generations.


Goals may evolve and look different than expected, but that's okay and often for the better.


Delighting in the journey and finding joy in the process is more important than reaching the final destination.


In fact, the process of working towards a dream can be more rewarding than achieving the dream itself.

Finding "good" in the middle of "hard" with Nate Pickowicz 100. Finding "good" in the middle of "hard" with Nate Pickowicz Michelle Visser How does the theory that "Simple Doesn't Mean Easy" apply to our faith?


Can we find "GOOD" in the middle of "HARD"?


For our 100th episode we're doing something a little different. I'm sitting down with a real-life very special friend to talk about a topic that is close to my heart (I share some very personal insights about WHY this is an important topic for me near the end).


Today we're chatting with Nate Pickowicz, the author of 'The Kindness of God,' and over a dozen other books.


We discuss:


- God's kindness & how it can be seen in blessings

- God's kindness & how it can be seen in the midst of suffering

- Personal stories and experiences that have highlighted God's kindness for both of us

- The importance of recognizing and appreciating God's kindness in all aspects of life

We chat about the importance of being present in small but meaningful ways. This episode will remind you to be thankful for those who showed up for you in life while encouraging you with practical ways you can do the same.


Dyck shares how busy modern life often prevents us from truly showing up for the people and commitments most important to us. He also discusses the concept of "playing a role" even when your heart's not fully in it, because people need you to show up.


Visser and Dyck talk about looking back on gaps and mistakes in your life in order to determine how to move forward and fill those gaps for others. Dyck notes that finding your purpose often comes from starting small steps, not waiting for a big sign.


You'll also be encouraged to let some commitments slide, so you can be fully present where you need to be.


Overall, the episode will encourage you to just show up this Thanksgiving, and trust that life's meaning is found through small acts of faithfulness, not grand achievements.


We even share fun tips for making the most of Thanksgiving dinner.

In this episode, I'm talking with David Stelzer, founder and CEO of Azure Standard about why Azure does not carry conventional refined white sugar (it's insane really).

And I'm picking David's brain about every detail of all the sweetener options that I might choose .

David dives into why conventional sugar production utilizes damaging practices like glyphosate spraying, artificial fertilizers, and burning leaves.

We talk about how Azure Standard aims to maintain a higher standard and not compromise on questionable ingredients. -

David explains why it's best to transition your family's diet through a progression, not radical changes. And he describes how Azure carries products to help folks transition from standard American diet to healthier options.

Listen in to find out:

  • What salt has in common with maple syrup. (It's not what you might think.)
  • Why the Dead Sea in Israel can't be used as food salt. (Turns out it's not sodium chloride, but mostly magnesium chloride.)
  • Why it's important to understand that refined table salt removes all the potassium that naturally occurs in salt. (Spoiler alert: our bodies requires potassium to process sodium. So it's a no brainer that we should want a real salt that comes with potassium, yes? Find out what salts do & what salts don't.)

In this episode you'll get the answers to all these questions about salt (& more):

She shares her unique experience of having an empty nest at different points over the years as her daughters temporarily moved out and back in, rather than all leaving at once.


Michelle explains that while she and her husband didn't do regular "date nights" when the kids were young, they made sure to spend meaningful one-on-one time with each family member, including each other, even if it wasn't alone time or a true "date."


She advises parents to start reconnecting more with your spouse as the kids become teenagers, while the kids are still at home and suggests some ways to do that.


Now that she's experiencing a true empty nest, Michelle loves having more time for fostering new friendships, personal hobbies, and even running her podcast. However, she notes you do have to be intentional about making time for these things.


Her best advice? It rings true for every season of life, not just the empty nest phase... Work hard at maintaining a positive attitude, focused on what's good - reflecting on what's true, noble, right, pure, lovely and praiseworthy even in the hard and difficult days.


Ultimately, Michelle didn't do anything specifically to prepare for empty nest life, but yet feels her overall choices as the kids were growing up, in the end, helped her usher in this new stage graciously.


She encourages listeners to enjoy the season you're in, invest in your family, and you'll naturally invest in your spouse too, which will, in the end, prepare you for the Empty Nest.

There's so much no one ever told me about this stage of life.

In this week's episode of the Simple Doesn't Mean Easy podcast, host Michelle Visser opens up about her personal experience with menopause. She shares the symptoms and challenges she has faced over the years, which encompasses a lot more than hot flashes.

From weight gain, to dry mouth, brain fog, irritability, tooth decay, and other things you have probably never associated with menopause, Michelle offers practical solutions she has found to personally help her in each area.

Some might not come with surprise, like drinking plenty of water, eating real food, and exercising consistently. But other solutions might surprise you, from consuming adaptogens like ashwagandha and maca powder, to enjoying a specific tea blend and a specific healthy hot chocolate mix (links below).

She also emphasizes the importance of managing stress levels and getting enough sleep. Michelle aims to provide helpful information and reassurance that you are not alone or "crazy" if you are going through some of these symptoms from menopause that most folks simply don't tell you.

Our grandparents had the satisfaction of making do with what they had (even when it was nothing fancy) versus our modern idea of a new $1,000 phone every year and replacement appliances every few years.


Follow the story of a boy named Thurman, who went to a 1-room schoolhouse & had to quit school in 9th grade to make sure his family could eat and worked multiple blue collar jobs to make sure his kids had a better life.


And Dorothy, a grandmom who lived to be 98 and was still active, fearless, and connected to her large family right up until the end.


What shaped Thurman and Dorothy's character? What could they teach us about being content yet working hard and fearlessly toward our goals?

This episode of the Simple Doesn't Mean Easy podcast focuses on Doing Things Scared... if we should, what it looks like, and some genuine results that I've seen along the way in my effort to make myself do things scared.


I share stories from my own life about starting projects like gardening, raising chickens, making maple syrup, and more, even when I didn't feel fully prepared or knowledgeable.


I want to encourage you to not over-prepare or overthink things, but to just dive in and learn as you go, even if it means making some mistakes along the way.


Will taking small steps and gradually gaining experience along the way eventually lead to achieving your dreams? Let's chat about this and more in this episode.


Oh, and I start and end with two very different stories. Make sure you catch the final story at the end. It's one I will never forget and I think it will help drive home this idea for you of doing it scared...

Other updates? I share an honest update on the new non-toxic cleaners we’ve been using & which work the best (recipes were all shared in S5 E19). And I give my thoughts on the natural face serum and protein powder I’ve been using this year.

Going through a difficult season makes us more aware of the little moments of joy that we might otherwise miss, so we really need to focus on the simple joys every day. It makes every day sweeter.

If we value the right thing–and build our “economy” around what really matters–we are joy-filled and blessed regardless of our circumstances.

Listen into the conversation as we dive into all of this and more.

I was tempted to buy cheap salt just for cleaners but then I realized minerals, particularly trace minerals, are very involved in the various protective properties of your skin. Trace minerals have been shown to be essential in fighting the damages of excessive sun exposure, wrinkles, and maintaining the moisture in your skin.

Minerals are tiny molecules that easily penetrate the skin, so topical application of minerals is a thing.

Why not add some trace minerals via my cleaners?

Ways to spend less time on social media:

  1. Show yourself that the unpredictable (therefore addicting) results of social media are pretty predictable on your mood: For 1 week, 1x a day write down how you feel (from 1 to 10) before scrolling social media and again after.
  2. Plan a real-life gathering with friends. 
  3. Make time to get outside.
  4. Make exercise a "have to" and put it on the calendar.
  5. Find a place you'd love to volunteer a few hours a week.
  6. Spend time, face to face, with one friend every week.

This episode breaks down 4 reasons to consider offering our pets more real food in their diets and simple practical ways to do just that.


We’ll talk about rendered, denatured meat and why pet food companies are allowed to use that in the kibble we feed our pets.


We’ll talk about glucosamine and why our pets need more than they typically get, especially as they age.


And we break down what a “functional” treat is for a pet.


Trust me, it’s simpler than you might think to start feeding your pets healthier alternatives.

But they convert a skillet or dutch oven full of random food into a flavorful meal.

 

And they're so simple to grow, harvest, dry, and use in so many ways. Heck, you can even grow them inside, all winter long.

 

I’m going to give you some practical ways to use these amazing anioxidant-ladden leaves of goodness in your everyday meals.


In case you haven’t guessed it, this episode is all about herbs.


I break down the 4 herbs I would never be without and the numerous ways I love using them. 


We discuss how to grow, harvest, and preserve and store herbs all year long and my favorite way to actually add them to my food (straight out of a mason jar, with a flip lid, and crushed, via my palms, into my food).

RuthAnn Zimmerman and her husband were both raised in the Old Order Mennonite culture, with deep Pennsylvania Dutch roots. After deciding to leave the Mennonite community, they realized how much they treasured many parts of their cultural background: the heritage of simple living, a hard work ethic, discipline, and delicious, real food. 

The foods they grew up eating are still very much the foods they serve in their kitchen today. So I  think you’ll enjoy the tips and insights RuthAnn shares with us in this episode.

NOTES FOR S2 E8:


  1. For a hosting company, there are many options. I love HostGator & my tech website friend recommends DreamHost. (I talk more about hosting in episode 6 of this season as well.)
  2. If you’re using a Wordpress free theme work at customizing it yourself, find a professional designer— use the nifty designer search tool here —or check out these guys and the awesome sites they create.
  3. Look into Search Engine Optimization. The free resource I mentioned: This is the helpful free resource for choosing valuable, well-searched key words. (2-3 searches a day). Decide best wording (see what google says) use that in title & 1 subtitle and a few times in article so google knows what you’re writing about. Learn how to get it pinned. A lot. And see if you can get strong backlinks to it. But if you want to dive in and learn from a pro, my friend Kelly of StickyBlogging seriously teaches you everything you need to know about SEO and it all starts with the great free content she has for you right here.
  4. Set up an email service, with MailChimp, ConvertKit, or Flodesk. Then create funnel ebooks or printable or exclusive access videos. Decide 3-4 topics and create something irresistible. (I use Canva Pro) Store it in google drive or dropbox or on website then create shareable links and share that as a url that auto pops up when subscribe. Create 3-4 sets of emails that eventually offers them a product you’re selling in that category and then adds them into your weekly email when they’re done the funnel.
  5. Start social media accounts, creating all the accounts in the same name as your blog’s name. (My ig isn’t)



Finally, consider learning from a true pro, with Lisa’s classes Create Your Blog Dream and Video for Bloggers. (Or sign up for both right here.) And StickyBlogging is invaluable for learning about SEO.

  5. Be creative.

I hope I haven't lost you already, assuming I'm totally crazy if I drink tree sap... If not, join me as I explain the science behind maple sap and why I love enjoying a tasty glass of this maple water every day during sugaring season. In fact, folks pay big money for bottled maple water, and I get it for free in buckets in my backyard.

Today we talk about the polyphenolic compounds and oligosaccharides in maple sap and why they are so amazing.

For more information about collecting sap, making syrup, and baking with maple--and my Maple Sandwich Bread recipe 😋--you'll love my book, Sweet Maple.

I also share lots about tapping here, on SoulyRested.com.

The Reverse Osmosis filtering system I mentioned is totally explained here.
