We’ve gained a lot from modern life—but we’ve also lost something along the way. We’re more disconnected from our food, our hands, our communities, and the skills that once made everyday life feel grounded. On the Old-Fashioned on Purpose podcast, bestselling author Jill Winger explores what’s still worth keeping from the old ways—and how to make it work in real life now.

People often ask me how I manage to “do it all” between running businesses, raising kids, caring for animals, and juggling a million moving parts. I've always loved good systems and streamlining, but I've learned the hard way that even the best syste... more

I listened to this podcast years ago but stopped listening (along with a few other “homesteading” podcasts) because I have been living that lifestyle for 45 years and after a while those podcasts became redundant and I could no longer relate or learn much new information. Plus my kids are grown adults. Jill was also very into her business model and business in general and that didn’t interest me. For some reason I decided recently to listen again and felt a shift away from those themes and more... more
I used to really enjoy this podcast but for the last year it has come off more as I’m Not Like Other Girls: The Podcast. As a fellow contrarian, I understand the impulse to seek out something new when your niche becomes mainstream but this podcast no longer serves me. It feels like we are beating a dead horse week after week. We get it, homeschooling and homesteading is no longer countercultural. You’re moving on. Less episodes about moving on and the past and why you’re not doing this anymore. ... more
I’ve followed this show since the beginning and it’s been wonderful the knowledge and experience shared and I am grateful for all of it. The shift in life was clear over a year ago and I know you will continue with purpose, but IBLP deeply hurt you and I do understand and age 40 was when I also felt a shift. I hope the podcast, blogs, soda fountain, everything and more will continue to flourish and your new beginning will heal your heart.
I’m Gen X and grew up with old roots AND am still excited about it. I don’t feel like the fact that it’s not “new” for me that it’s not exciting. Growing up with it shouldn’t belittle folks that are finding it and celebrating it

Jill Winger brings together practical guidance and personal reflection on building a more grounded life. Recurring subjects include from-scratch cooking, gardening and soil health, homesteading, horses, thrifted home projects, food costs, and the choices involved in balancing modern convenience with older skills. Many episodes are solo, story-led reflections that turn everyday setbacks and life changes into lessons; others feature specialists and practitioners offering concrete advice, including on soil science, skincare, and food buying. The mix is distinctive for pairing hands-on instruction with candid discussion of identity, work, community, and the limits of idealized self-sufficiency. It may suit listeners who want useful home and lan... more
