In todayās video, Iām taking you along on a journey thatās as raw as it gets in the gardening world my attempt at staining my newly built brooder, all in preparation for some fluffy baby chicks arriving soon.
Iām laying it all out there, folks the good, the bad, and the notsopretty. As a gardener, mother, and mentor, Iāve learned the hard way that perfectionism is a tough adversary, but itās one we can overcome with a bit of patience, a lot of learning, and a healthy dose of humor.
Through spills, splatters, and a few āoopsā moments, I share how embracing imperfection has not only made me a better gardener but a happier person. This video isnāt just about preparing a brooder; itās about preparing ourselves to fail forward, to grow, and to find joy in the simple things.
Join me as I share these moments, hoping to inspire others to take up gardening, to cherish the simple life, and to see the beauty in imperfection. Letās demystify the idea of a perfect garden and a perfect life, and instead, celebrate each step, stumble, and success along the way.
Because in the end, itās not about the perfect shade of stain on the brooder, but about the life and growth it will support. Hereās to failing forward and finding joy in every little victory. ā¤
