I’m Andrea Dekker.
Happy wife, mother of 4, farmhouse lover, and simple-living enthusiast!
I’m passionate about managing my home well, stewarding my resources wisely, and encouraging women in all stages to pursue intentionality in their homes, families, and lives.
I love this tiny corner of the internet and I’m SO happy you’re here!
Does this sound familiar?
- “I can’t figure out how to maintain balance in my life — between the house, the meals, the family, and my own personal life, something has to give. I don’t have time for it all.”
- “I’m exhausted by the constant pressure I feel to do it all, all the time!”
- “I wish I enjoyed more time at home with family, but I feel guilty slowing down when my do-to list is waiting.”
- “I struggle to say “no” and regularly get bogged down by too much on my plate. Why do I do this to myself?”
If you can relate to any of the statements above, you’re not alone, my friend!
These are just a few of the many thousands of emails, comments, and messages I’ve received over the past decade.
If only there were another way…
A way to confidently balance our home, life, and relationships.
A way to find fulfillment and purpose in our home management pursuits.
A way to cultivate a simpler, more intentional life in our busy-glorified, instant-gratification culture.
A way to thrive, not simply survive.
I believe this is possible!
Because I believe you can live intentionally in an instant world!

When You Feel Overwhelmed…
Within two weeks of my 21st birthday, I happily assumed the roles of wife and homeowner — a dream come true for the girl who grew up watching Martha Stewart instead of MTV.
At the time, I didn’t have many home management skills, but I forged ahead, eager to embark on this new world of cleaning routines, meal plans, and home renovations.
I had visions of a simple life at home… but my reality felt like a hamster wheel of “work more, do more, be more.” Seriously, who knew it was so much work to run a home, maintain a marriage, and earn a living!
I’ve made lots of mistakes over the years and learned much along the way. I ditched society’s definition of the “ideal life” and intentionally worked to create a simpler home and slower lifestyle for myself and my family.
I have NO regrets!
Fast forward almost 2 decades and 4 children later…
As society continues to rush through life at breakneck speed, our lives feel simpler and more intentional. My priorities are clearer, my relationships are stronger, and my to-do lists actually feel doable. Best of all, my days are fulfilling (not just FULL).
After years of reading, researching, trial, and error, this online community is now THE place I share the tools, strategies, resources, and mindsets that have made the biggest impact on my home management journey… I know they will help you too!
I believe you can enjoy a simpler, more fulfilling life!
Imagine…
…waking up to a clean and organized home each morning.
…getting out the door on-time, without forgetting anything or yelling at your kids to “hurry up”.
…having a plan for dinner and enjoying stress-free meals together as a family each night.
…enjoying slow weekends at home because your schedule isn’t too full.
Yes, this can be your reality!
