how we live life on a single income | family of five

This video is deeply personal. I’m sharing what it looks like to raise a family of five while living on one income — not perfectly, but with intention, faith, and contentment. Living on a single income isn’t always easy, but it has shaped our family in ways I never expected. In this video, I share how my husband and I chose this path, how we’ve learned to live simply, and how God has provided for us through every season — even when money was tight. As I move through a slow day of homemaking — cooking, cleaning, and caring for our home — I talk about what it really means to thrive on one income. Not through abundance, but through patience, sacrifice, creativity, and protecting a slow, meaningful childhood for our kids. This is a story about family, faith, and choosing presence over pressure. 📖 “Do not worry about what you will eat or drink… for your Heavenly Father knows that you need them.” — Matthew 6:31–32 If you’re living on one income, considering it, or simply craving a slower, more intentional family life, I hope this encourages you. 🌿 A cozy corner of the internet for slow motherhood: Blog posts + free resources ✨ ➡️ OurFruitfulLife.blog 🌿 I’ve created a small library of free resources for mothers who want to live more present, peaceful, and rooted — without striving or adding more to their plate. ☕ You can find them here: https://ourfruitfullife.blog/free-res...
