043: Women and Work with Carlee Russell

Carlee Russell, wife, homeschooling mom of 3, and virtual assistant, joins me on the Home and Hearth podcast to talk about a Biblical understanding of women and work. I believe you will come away from this episode encouraged and inspired for your own journey!

What we Chat about in This Episode

~A Biblical understanding of a woman's work, and how both the ultra-liberal feminist and the 1950s housewife stereotypes are wrong

~Three specific places in Scripture which provide us with an understanding of woman and work - Genesis 1 & 2, Proverbs 31, and Titus 2:4-5

~Hope for the woman who feels like there is more out there for her

~Using our gifts and talents even in the season of homemaking and mothering

~The multitude of ways a woman can contribute to her family's economy whether she is working for someone else or not

~How doing work that you love fills you up and thereby makes you an even better mama, more able to pour back out into your kiddos

~The culture's view of a stay-at-home mom vs. the Bible's

~The problem with making your children the center of your universe

~Mommy guilt and how it comes from the culture; not the Bible

~How seeing her work has positively impacted Carlee's children

~The freedom moms have between being there for their kids and being at all their events and activities

~How moms working at home or elsewhere can inspire entrpreneurship in our kids

~Working hard and with intentionality; viewing our home as a place of work and excellence

~And more!
