In today’s episode, Paige is joined by Jennifer Pepito, host of the Restoration Home podcast, founder of The Peaceful Press, and author of the new book Habits for a Sacred Home. As a mother of seven, Jennifer shares her insights on what it truly means to create a ‘sacred’ home (and why it’s not as daunting as it sounds). Together, they explore the importance of intentionality in instilling strong values in children, how to establish “Rules of Life” for your family, and the significance of entrusting your children to God, who ultimately holds their future.
Paige’s Takeaways:

We model our values in our homes - not just to our kids, but also to our spouses!
- If you and your spouse approach modeling values in a different way:
Have a conversation!
Keep modeling these values every day, even if your spouse isn’t quite sure how to do it

Rules of Life for Your Family - if you don’t have an established “Rule of Life”, consider making one now! If you do have one, assess it and see if it still aligns with your values or if an adjustment is needed. Don’t know where to start? Use these guidelines/categories to help!
Relationship with God
Do you value going to church? Being part of a small group? Where is your priority and where do you want your kids/your lie to implement your values when it comes to your relationship with God?
Personal Life and Health
Are you valuing your health choices, your exercise, and your sleep? When we start putting structure in these areas, it helps us make wiser choices in the moment.
Relationships with family and friends
How are you intentional with your relationships? If time with family and friends is important to you, are you structuring your life to honor that?
Work
What are your values when it comes to work? If you’re in a toxic or negative work environment, are you in a position to make a change? Do you overwork when it’s not necessary? Take a look at what is necessary in your work life and what you can change.
How can we teach our children these habits and values?
- Be intentional! Even when kids are out of the house at school or sports for most of the day, it doesn’t mean those outside influences will win in their lives. Research shows us that the power of a parent's voice can transform the values and belief systems of their child. Recognize that your voice has power!
