If, despite all your career training in earlier years, you’ve decided that the most responsible way to heal the planet, nurture and challenge your creative spirit, care for your family and friends, restore balance to the economy, drain the life-blood from irresponsible corporations and ensure liberty and justice for all is to become a homemaker, welcome. I hope you’ll stay here awhile and come back often.

Here, homemaking is no longer the lonely depressing realm of the subjugated or bored woman. It is a vocation pursued by men and women alike, as a way to change the world. Feel free to peruse some of the dialogues that our members have been having, to join in the conversation, ask for help, look through the book store, check out the recommended reads and resources, read through the articles, pick up a copy of the book that inspired all that chatter – Radical Homemakers: Reclaiming Domesticity from a Consumer Culture (as the author and web host, I reserve the right to engage in occasional hyperbole and shameless self-promotion), or better still, to sign in as a community member and post your personal story so that others may learn from your experiences.

I hope that, over time, users will help to shape this site in the way that best serves them. I see Radical Homemakers everywhere I go, and I know that we can be a powerful force for national and global transformation. I want this site to support that effort. I understand that many different ideological, religious and cultural views are represented on this life path. Respectful expressions of that diversity are welcome, and I look forward to our dialogues.
