Working Moms Are Homemakers Too: From Hustle Culture to Intentionally Spending Time With Family

Today, we continue our discussion on being working moms and homemakers. Working women, along with busy moms everywhere, will gain life-giving insights on rejecting hustle culture and creating a home your family loves.

In this episode, I continue an interview 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. We explore the countercultural, Christ-centered vision of homemaking, motherhood, and calling. She challenges the “you can have it all” narrative and invites us to consider a slower, more sacrificial, and ultimately more fulfilling way of living. A rejection of hustle culture to embrace one rooted in biblical values, limitations, and everyday faithfulness.

We discuss what it means to set the spinning plates down and nourish our families in meaningful, lasting ways. Whether you're a working mom, stay-at-home mom, or somewhere in between, this episode will leave you feeling seen and encouraged in the season you're in. And you'll gain practical insights on how to be more intentional at spending time with family and creating a home you don't want to escape from.
