Making Time for
Simple Living

Discover how women just like you are slowing down, finding simplicity, and finally
learning the homesteading and old-fashioned skills they’ve always wanted —
without quitting their jobs, moving to the country, or feeling overwhelmed.

I teach women to reclaim the old ways — real food, herbal medicine, natural skin care, and the skills that kept families healthy and grounded for generations. You don’t have to live on a homestead to live this way.

Feeling like life is flying by faster than you can keep up?
Here’s the practical, step-by-step way to make time for simple living
even if your days already feel too full
Includes a 20-page Kickstart Planner

Do you ever look at women online — baking bread from scratch, tending gardens, making their own soaps and candles — and think,

“I wish I could do that… but I barely have time to breathe”?

You’re not lazy.
You’re not unmotivated.
You’re just busy — and you’ve been told for years that slowing down isn’t possible.

But here’s the truth…
You don’t need more hours in the day to start living simply.
You just need a plan that makes space for what truly matters.

That’s exactly what Making Time for Simple Living gives you.

Inside, you’ll discover a practical, step-by-step roadmap to reclaim your time — so you can finally start living the slower, more intentional life you’ve been craving.

Each chapter helps you carve out space in your day without guilt, find your “why,” and take your first small (but powerful) steps toward a simpler lifestyle that actually lasts.

And the best part?

You’ll also get the 20-Page Starter Kickstart Planner, a beautiful printable guide that helps you journal, track your time, and see your progress as you go.

This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing less — but doing what truly matters.

If you’ve ever wished you could start learning old-fashioned skills, grow a small garden, or just slow the pace of your days…
this is where it starts.

Because simple living isn’t about changing where you live.
It’s about changing how you live.

You don’t need a cabin in the woods to start living simply — you just need a plan that fits your life.


For years, “simple living” has been painted as something you can only have after you’ve quit your job, moved to the country, or spent a fortune setting up a homestead.


But the truth is…
Simple living isn’t a location.
It’s a lifestyle.
And it can start right where you are — today.
That’s exactly what Making Time for Simple Living

was created to help you do.

Inside this easy-to-read ebook, you’ll find a practical, step-by-step

roadmap to help you carve out time for what truly matters…
so you can finally start learning the skills and living the slower,
more simple life your heart has been craving.

You’ll discover:
🌿 The practical “time-shift” method — how to find hidden pockets of free time without cutting sleep, skipping self-care, or giving up what you love.
🍞 The 5-minute mindset reset that helps you escape the feeling of “never enough time” and finally breathe again.
🌸 How to uncover your true “why” — so you stay grounded and motivated, even on the busiest days.
🪴 The “simple start” strategy — how to begin learning old-fashioned skills like small-batch skin care, fermenting, or herbal remedies in a way that’s doable, realistic, and actually fun.
🌕 The secret to slow progress that lasts — how to make small, steady changes that build lifelong habits instead of burnout.

And because making time isn’t just about ideas — it’s about action — you’ll also receive your 20-Page Kickstart Planner

and reflect on progress.

That’s what Making Time for Simple Living helps you create.

I’m Kari Newsom

And I didn’t set out to live simply… I just wanted to feel healthy again.

Almost 20 years ago, I was struggling.
Constant fatigue. Chronic health issues. Always chasing the next “quick fix” that never seemed to work.
Out of desperation, I started researching real, traditional foods — and that changed everything.
I learned how to ferment vegetables.
How to culture dairy.
How to use herbs and plants as gentle medicine.
And somewhere along the way… I fell in love with the concept of it all.
Simple living wasn’t just about food anymore.
It became a way of healing — spirit, soul, and body.
Each new skill I learned — gardening, herbal remedies, baking from scratch — made me feel more anchored, more capable, and more alive.
Eventually, our family started homesteading.
Not because it was trendy.
But because we wanted to live in a way that was self-reliant, sustainable, and healthy — without the world’s assistance.
And that’s when I realized something important:
Most people want this kind of life too…
But they’re drowning in busy schedules, endless obligations, and mental clutter.
They don’t need another “perfect routine.”
They just need a gentle way to begin.
That’s why I wrote Making Time for Simple Living.
To help you start small, make progress you can feel, and finally create room for the life you’ve always dreamed of.
