We’re talking about:  • how I used to spiral when sickness hit  • what shifted for me this past year  • how we manage sickness in a big family  • practical tips that actually make it easier (buckets, towels, simple meals + more)  • and how to handle the disappointment when plans don’t go as expected This episode is real life, practical encouragement, and a reminder that you’re not doing anything wrong when sickness takes over your home. Sometimes the best thing we can do is slow down and take care of our people.
