2 of my favorite youtubers doing a podcast together?! I cant wait to listen and see what I can glean from this conversation ❤
I was going to type the same thing! Love both of their channels :)
Oh my goodness mine too!!!! Love Lisa and Megan!!! Lisa should get Lynette Yoder on as well!!!!
My thoughts exactly! 🥰
I agree!! I was so excited to see Megan on here!!! ❤️
My thoughts as well! Haha
“You’re not that important”… 🤣 I love it!!!
Ironically, we are so busy telling people “you’re important”, “you’re special”, snowflake, etc. when sometimes the absolute most important thing someone can tell us is “you’re not that important”. There’s way less pressure when you’re not the center of the universe. You can fail, get back up, have bad hair days, and be free to learn and grow when not everything revolves around you! Not to mention it teaches you to look around and be aware and be compassionate toward others!
Years ago I was watching Dr Phill and he had a woman on there that was attractive, who had a problem with jealousy about her husband. She was so scared that he would look at another woman and find her more attractive, and eventually have an affair with her. (Which was not his plan to begin with!)So she felt she had to try to be as beautiful to him in every way that she could to keep him from having ‘wandering eyes’. And Dr Phill said something to her that I’ll never forget…he said, “you know, you’re not the most beautiful woman in the world.” The reaction he got from her was priceless, but he said it to let her know that there will always be someone better than you, but that doesn’t make you any less of a person than they are. It’s a fact of life that we all have to deal with. I wish I could remember what else he said, but that part really struck me because he was brutally honest, and that’s what we need.
This was a really great chat, thank you Lisa & Megan, so many good reminders that failure ultimately is our greatest teacher, that hard doesn’t have to always be hard, and to live our best lives right now! 💛
Thank you so much for having Megan on the podcast! We just love her! We are also in Pennsylvania (she is East, we are much further west) but we drove through Lancaster on the way to Philly for a soccer tournament and we IG “waved” at each other. 🤣😆😂 She’s as cool as they come, and I love the Mennonite culture of love for Christ, homemaking and having home based businesses. I don’t have a RUclips channel but I’m a piano teacher, music minister and stay at home mom. Hope folks are encouraged to launch their channel and I pray for their success!
I really needed this and a bonus it's 2 of my favorites. I'm just normally a silent follower. A year into my channel and while I have many shorts, I've only done 2 videos. Time and fear have definitely interfered.
This is a great chat‼️. I watch both of you even though I’m an age 73 great gran with a much different lifestyle, however I miss all of these things and can kind of fill my cup with your activities that I had during the same years.
Criticism is also a sign people are very unsatisfied with themselves. I guess you know that
Andrea Mills videos are very interesting to me. He channel was non-monitized and was just basically her ministry to moms. I think she has 9 children? She passed away suddenly and her husband has carried on the channel and it is now monetized. So it is interesting to watch his struggle as a widower and parent of many.
I love Megan fox's channel, you won't find her copying other RUclipsrs or trying to be the same as them,she is totally unique and her own person. She puts out fabulous realistic content and very popular for being so unique.
I watch a couple of menonite lady's RUclips channels and they are all just so independent of each other and none of them try to be like the other.
Loved listening to both of you talking together!!! Been blessed by both of you ladies!
I’m SO excited to listen to this!! I love Megan Fox!! You both are my top two favorite RUclipsrs!!
My absolute two favorite real RUclips women. You both always uplift me. You are both so real and honest about the your flaws and progress. As an actual human mom I rarely see the true day to day living experience.
Lisa and Megan, you are two of my favorite youtube channels with the attraction being that I see you sincerely and lovingly living, in your lives, God's design for women. I also get to relive the days of caring for husband/family/home through you now that our children are married with families of their own. It's so refreshing and interesting to watch how both your days unfold in a loving, nurturing way. I miss the busyness of it all! Thank you for sharing your home and family with us. You are loved and appreciated! May God bless your households and families all your days! 🙏❤
Ladies, you both are a delight to listen to. A very informative video.
My two favorite ladies are on a podcast together. Brilliant!
Great conversation. Started a book review page on FB which lead to a business that I currently run now here in VA which lead to me now starting a youtube channel on my business and gardening. Encouraged to do this by watching Megan. I am finally getting more comfortable in front of the camera which is my iPhone lol. It's fun and if someone learns just one thing from my video then I am good. Thanks for sharing. Be blessed
You are two of my most favorite RUclipsrs and inspirations for my upcoming channel, thank you for this podcast! I loved hearing both of your perspectives!
Two of the SWEETEST and REAL young moms out there! I am pushing 68 and LOVE being inspired.... STILL! I want Megan to do a few tutorials for using my Cricut...which I bought after seeing how much she uses hers.... but I am a show me girl, so .....I have gotten a slow start! Megan, think a second grade explanation for me, OK? THe sour dough is going to be a staple all winter....YOU GIRLS!!!! Do love you both!
That was a great chat ladies!
Just discovered Megan . Enjoyed the chat.
I appreciate your natural and intelligent conversation
I took your master class this evening for trying to learn ways to grow my RUclips channel and I can’t thank you enough! I definitely walked away feeling motivated & encouraged with lots of great ideas. I enjoyed listening to you ladies chat! So glad to have found your channel!
I watch both of your channels and love them! So nice watching you talk together today!
You are my 2 favorite youtubers! So excited to listen :)
My gosh, what an answer to prayer for me! ❤️☺️
Please share how you manage kids toys coming in for birthday and holiday gifts and maintain the minimal farmhouse lifestyle without feeling like you neglect your kids on their birthday. I don't want/ need more coming in but want them to have happy memories of birthdays.
Two of my favorite youtubers 😭
Hello Ladies!!!
I love you both! ❤️❤️This video is such a blessing to my day. Thank you for sharing your beautiful lives and gifts!❤️🙏🏻 God bless you both and your families ❤️🙏🏻
Not to “big sister” you both, but take it from this newly 50 year old “aspiring city homesteader” and mom of 2 (13 and 11)…. Your lives, personalities and content are so wonderful! I encourage my children to watch as well. Your differences from us can open doors and ideas for them for their lives, and inspire me to stay fresh and keep growing and leaning and taking chances on myself …and having grown up without the Internet and social media as such an intricate part of our lives, I’m so excited to share with people from near and far. Maybe you don’t realize, but I think you have a clue 😂 , how valuable these opportunities and community experiences can be for spreading positivity, not leaving this space for only the “bullies” and negativity we too often read about. Now I’m babbling!!! 😂 Keep going ladies!! See you both soon ❤️🙏🏻
Great! I found your channel last year through Megan’s. Love watching and listening to you both. Y’all are sweet and precious moms taking care of your families. God bless y’all. 😀❤️
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs!
I love Megan Fox. She is such an amazing lady!
mennonite curious, out of sincere admiration, not because I want to join, although I would have a conversation about it. I really liked this conversation. Glad you uploaded and shared it.
Two worlds colliding! Ice just pressed play. I'm so excited 😍😍
This is so cool! You are my favourite RUclipsrs !!!!
Thanks for being such a encouragement to all of us!!
It was fun to find this video. Megan has become my favorite RUclipsr to watch and I think a lot of it is because of her bubbly personality and seeing how much joy she finds in motherhood and homemaking which is honestly something I have always struggled with and she is so encouraging that way. Even though my life is different with 8 kids ages 7-21 she is just a breath of fresh air with her laughter and she has such a beautiful relationship with her husband and children. I enjoy those chatty videos where you feel like you get to know a person.
Megan Fox comes into my head most days, so glad you were able to talk with Lisa. Great conversations ladies,👏🏻 so much charisma 💝💝 Watching from Australia 🇦🇺
I love watching Megan. One of my favorite U-tubers.
Wow what fun 2 of my favorite U Tubers!
Love watching you do one to one with other you tubers. See a fun, warm side to you.
I consider your work a proper job and to delegate chores or even related technical jobs to you tube is completely understandable. As long as the kids are fine do not take criticism seriously, it's jalousie
I was so excited to see you both on here!
Omg!! How did I not see this until now!! My two favorite RUclipsrs!!! Can we please get more of this!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this ! I love you both ! Thanks so much !
I also have a small bucket of Redmond real salt and love it .. enjoy your video as always .. 2 of my favorites.. I watch and listen to you both Megan and Lisa 🌸🌸
So excited for this episode as both of you are two of my faves to watch!!! I already know its going to be great!
Such an informative video..as a follower of Mrs Fox i had a pleasant insight to her channel. Thanks ladies..from a Gk Aussie.Yiayia & just a FB user. I dont think i could handle all the tech stuff even tho i use my smartphone well!!
This video was amazing! Two of my favorite RUclipsrs! I was in heaven! This was awesome, ladies! ❤️
Enjoyed listening to you both. Watch both of you. You both are good examples of women of faith.
Megan Fox...very nice!
Love your chat! It would help to put the name of your sponsor and other links suggested up on the screen. Like is it: Tube and Co?? Seeing it is better than hearing it and guessing at the spelling. Thanks!
Ok…. Took me a minute but found the description box with links….. guess I’m tech challenged!
Very much enjoyed this podcast. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Lisa!!
I loved this! It could not have come at a better time for me. I have been sitting on something for a long long time, going back and forth with myself about sharing it with people. You guys have totally given confidence to just do it! Thank you so much!
Yes! My favorite RUclipsrs on a podcast. Just what I needed today!
I love her !!! ❤️❤️ really enjoyed this chat
Wonderful interview! Fun and real! Thank you, ladies!
Love you two! My favorite RUclipsrs
I think both of you ladies are interesting to watch. I'm more laid back, but I do enjoy seeing different types of people lives and ways of living.
Yay , my two favorite RUclipsrs on together 👏
I enjoyed your conversation. I’m not a fan of reels and never turn sound on. I like pictures I can let my eye rove over. The new shorts, I just pass on that to. When there is content, I enjoy a listen. Love you energy.
I love both of you guys!! So cool that y'all got together
Thank you ladies, this is awesome ❤️
This was a sweet deal double the goodness for the price of one sit-in to listen. I enjoy Megan Fox, and Farmhouse on Boone.. ♥️ Wonderful advice and I am one of those hesitant people. Maybe one day!!
Thank you both for a very informative video. I feel you both are very authentic and real. I love how Megan states that you need to think things through and not get stuck in the negative. I wish I had the energy you both have!! Looking forward to watching each of you and your channels!
This was great 👍
I found this podcast so helpful and encouraging…and incredibly down-to-earth. Thank you both so much for sharing your insight and wisdom.
Glad you enjoyed it!
💜💜 Thank you both! This was So helpful! I especially appreciated how you talked about managing time! I loved it all though!!
I love this one! Also love hearing that you started later doing youtube Im 30 and felt like I was behind. I started one a few months ago and then gave it up but been wishing to try again. I realised I did almost all my videos the wrong way vertically instead of horizontally which was very discouraging but definetly going to try again after watching this! Also just love watching you and your instagram 😁 you just seem so down to earth!
Love this video and both ladies!! 🥰
Love you both!
Your dress is so stinking cute, Lisa ! Is that the one you got off Amazon?? Love the content too!! 💗💗💗
I'm so excited to see this interview! 😊
You two are two of the 5 channels I watch consistently. I'm enjoying this very much!
How great!
You both are beautiful and I was so glad seeing you chat together but it became too much to listen 2 or 3 commercials in one video.
Megan, wow, my favorite you tuber!!!🥰
Love you girls...Love from 🇿🇦GOD BLESS🌹🌹
What kind of video editing software do you use? thinking about starting a youtube channel but there’s so much I don’t know!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
🤗🙏
been following you both and love your channels 💕
Great video 👍❤️👍❤️
