“If everybody has their own truth, then there is no truth” THANK YOU for saying that! We have talked to our teenager about this. The whole “my truth” statement seems like it’s no big deal...but it is major!

Hi, just read your comment, maybe I missed something in the video.. What about freedom on religion and it is every ones choice on this. Do you respect people on their choice not to believe in the bible?

Hi! Yes, I totally respect people’s choice not to believe in the Bible. I believe that we were given free will, therefore it is up to us to choose what we believe, and everybody believes in something, even if that something is just themselves. I choose to believe in God and ultimately the Bible. His word to me.

Wedding advice: You are just as married if you spend $5,000 instead of $50,000. That money would be better spent on a new home or other practical needs when you're just starting out. Pick one or two things that are super important to you & make them your splurge for quality. You want to have happy memories from that day, not debts to pay off. Loved this chat, even though I'm at a completely different phase of life now. So much wisdom to share! 🥰

As a young woman I was a "live your truth", do who & whatever you want type of person with zero good role models and zero direction. It left me so DEEPLY empty, broken, sick, used, jaded etc. I am now 40 and working toward healing all of it & I would give anything to have this talk with my younger self. ❤ I love that you are brave enough to speak on this in this dark world that Satan truly has a hold on. We need more young women like you

I never paid much attention to that sort of thing, especially growing up. (I've always been a t-shirt jeans / shorts kind of girl.) But with the insane gender nonsense being pushed in society, I think it's more important than ever to demonstrate feminine women and masculine men!

I've had this thought too! It is definitely a way to show what you believe without necessarily voicing it to everyone you meet!

On the food topic, I found that when the kids don’t want to try a new food, saying “oh! Maybe those taste bud haven’t woken up yet!” really resonated with my youngest (wish I had thought of it sooner!). She has the best time imagining her tastebuds “waking up” when she tries something new. She also encourages her older brothers by using this language. 😊

I am a seventy yr old woman. And I enjoy your lively spirit. Thank you for this Q&A. It is possible to think differently and still find things in common. Mom of six children and eight grandchildren .

As a traditional Catholic, I love your encouragement in natural family planning. I also completely stopped wearing pants in the last couple years and just wear dresses and skirts. I also wear a veil at Mass. People definitely notice and tend to treat me differently. I switched just because pants don’t fit me comfortably, but I do feels more modest now.

Natural Cycles is more effective than traditional fertility awareness-based methods, and you don’t have to do the three months monitoring phase before you use it. The birth control app is 93% with typical use and 98% with perfect use.

I’ve been a silent viewer for a long time…. I LOVE your videos. I’m a Christian mama, not Mennonite, but value my femininity and am enjoying the process of discovering the beauty in homemaking and motherhood. As a first time mom, you have been so helpful in more ways than you know. Thank you for sharing your heart with us! ❤️

As a senior lady, I graduated from high school in 1970 so I’m 71 years old. I am always shocked that boys and girls have health together. When I was in high school the boys had a health class and the girls had a health class and we were not in the same class. And that was a public school not a private school. My health teacher was a woman, and there was no questions off-limits, and the discussions were very frank. I would not have been comfortable if boys were in the class.

I think they could be done separately but I think teens should be educated on both genders. The number of people in marriages not knowing how their spouse’s body work is astounding. Like… I had a friend who at 17 thought you had to take a tampon out to use the bathroom. Her mom wasn’t around and her dad didn’t know the vagina and urethra were two different spots. 😳

Learning about both genders is extremely important. I do think there are many positives to both separated and inclusive puberty/body/sex education, and there should be a combination of the two, not just one or the other. Both are valuable and necessary in their own ways. My mother was very proactive about educating me on everything, so I didn’t really need to be educated by the school, however the public school I went to fortunately did incorporate that type of education with a combination of separated health education for girls and boys, along with joint. That way each gender has an opportunity to ask questions that may be too embarrassing to ask in the presence of the opposite sex, but it was also normalizing learning about and discussing the human body collectively regardless of gender, which is also really important. The human body isn’t something anyone should be ashamed of, nor should it be something that one gender should be embarrassed about the opposite gender learning or discussing in front of them. Only teaching children separately by gender just reinforces the stigma and embarrassment, especially for those who already feel that way or are taught that embarrassment, shame or secrecy at home. And a lot of that shame is usually carried by girls (boys deal with it too though). Girls should be able to talk about their period in front of boys without it being weird or embarrassing, but only having those discussions separately reinforces the opposite. And it also reinforces to boys that the female body isn’t something they need to understand. The reverse can be true as well. It’s honestly really sad how many full grown adults know so little about how the body of the opposite sex works, and a lot of that stems from only having gender separated teaching. So yes, for the sake of the kids who are too embarrassed to openly ask questions, separation is necessary, but it shouldn’t be the only means of education. There are positives and negatives for both ways, which is why a combination of the two is best.

I have twin 17 year old special needs daughters (cerebral palsy due to premature birth). They've had chores since they could walk. They have the minds of preschoolers....they're teachable!

“The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places. Indeed I have a beautiful inheritance.” Psalm 16:6 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 His boundaries aren’t to keep us FROM good “land” but to keep us IN good “land”. I love that you said scripture isn’t a list of rules to you. His law is life giving.

You're doing a good thing in sharing things about life from a Christian perspective. Girls need positive role models in life. So few people really understand the Bible and what a traditional Christian lifestyle is all about. We all know why because the popular trends of the World are "pro" sin instead of "pro" Christian and modesty. Showing value for yourself and others is something that everybody can see as a good thing. Mennonites are some of the best at living a joyful Christian lifestyle and that is something I've always respected. Some people might not like the Mennonites way or the Christian ways in general but if people took 2 seconds and read the Bible or watch a vid it would be a transformation moment in people's lives. Keep putting out positive content and sharing your faith. You and your fellow Christian content creators have great people of faith watching over you because all of us share a common goal...the prosperity and future of our Faith and Values. Everytime I see Mennonites in my local area I admire the head coverings because it is so Biblical and modest in nature. Speak out all you want. God loves your bravery and joyful spirit. You show it every video.👩📣📖⛪

I’m glad that you like making these videos because they are my favorite videos that you have! Thank you for all of your hard work, honesty, and Godly inspiration.

I thoroughly enjoyed this chat and listened as I folded laundry, cleaned the bathroom and took a shower. Made those tasks go by quickly. ☺️

So true about raising our children to be a help to everyone around them. I just had a talk with my school age girls about how they need to learn to clean and cook meals this summer. We have a homestead so there is no lack of things to do!

Okay, this video 🫶🏻🔥 thank you for being willing to talk about all the things!

What a great video, Megan, thanks for sharing so humbly to all of us.

You’re a INCREDIBLE MOM! God has blessed you for your faithfulness!

You go girl! Thank you for your boldness to share your faith. You are such a encouraging friend on KZread!

Honestly, I am saving this Video up for tomorrow, but wanted to thank you for being such an amazing inspiration, I wanna say our lifes couldn't be more different besides the fact of being a mom😂 but your way of sharing your life and views of everything has had such an Impact in my life, like ...wow😂 I get so many good ideas, mindsets and espeacially motivation to be a better Mommy out of your videos, just thank you so much! IT really feels like having a friend on the other side of the world😂❤

I don't have enough kind or wonderful words for this video. This kind of advice and content is so needed, and I agree with everything you said. Thank you so much for sharing. I am forwarding to many friends and family.

Idle hands are the devil's workshop👍 I used the basal thermometer, etc. for family planning, and I said the exact same thing as you, "a woman's body is so amazing, and they should have taught us all of this in school"

Love your dress! It looks so good on you! And thanks for the encouragement at the end for those trying for kids. We’re in the thick of it and it feels so lonely sometimes, partly because we chose to keep our journey and details private. We’ve grown closer as a couple and learned to lean on God a whole lot more.

Always super interesting hearing your perspective spoken in a very welcoming and kind way, thank you for the continued positivity! I'm not religious at all but I always find it worth while to hear how others choose to live their lives. ❤

Megan!! I loved the girl talk! Its so great to hear about these topics from a mennonite perspective 😊❤

Just watched the intro. Can't wait to watch- looks so inspiring and motivating! Just need my coffee in hand and I'll be ready to watch the full video! 😃

Love this video Megan! I always enjoy a good girl chat 😂

I love your point of view on things! That’s probably why I always look forward to ur videos. I wish I had some of this advice when I was a young person and mother. Thank you for sharing

Thank you for your insights 🌸 please do them more :) there is so much value in sharing your experiences and advice with other ladies. Have a lovely weekend ahead Megan.

Loved this girl chat! Put my AirPods in and listened while I put away the clothes. Some very good topics that I haven’t really thought much about. Loved to hear your point of view 😊 you’re doing such a good job! You go girl!

These are my favourite videos!! Also really loved the music in this one too even if they’re just opening & closing songs!

Megan, one thing I just have to tell you that I love that you do with the kids is letting them help you with meal prep. They are so cute at the counter with their little plastic knives cutting up fruit or veggies!!! Like 3 and 5 years old or so and they are so interested in helping you! I think it's wonderful!!! I think "Ahhh, I wish I would have done that with mine". I think you are doing a great job!! Your teaching talents are not being wasted. I see them all the time. God bless you all and have a great weekend!!!

What an inspiration ❤ you're amazing and this world needs exposure to your channel! I was baptized last year so your religious chats are so educational for me as I'm still learning about Jesus and the Bible

Megan, I’ve been with you forever and I have to tell you this was definitely one of your best “get to know me” videos! You were so relaxed, fun, thoughtful and expressed yourself and your views so well. I never realized how close by your mom is, that’s so nice!

As you were talking I was thinking to 57 years ago! I was adjusting to so much change after marriage that I just kept doing the next thing! I did pray about everything which helped me so much.

My 7, 6, & 4 year olds do a lot of laundry and dishes around the house but this summer we'll add gardening to the list. We also have several Nigerian Dwarf goats that provide a perfect amount of animal chores. Honestly I think they're the best pets! We have a billy goat and just had 4 babies so our children are learning about birth and the birds and the bees very organically just by watching! It's been awesome and I've really enjoyed answering they're questions as they draw parallels between animals and humans.

I just love your perspective on pretty much everything even though I’m not even Christian. I absolutely agree on kids working too! My kids (8&11) don’t have set chores but they help around the house and I think that’s essential. My mom spared me too much in her good intentions but the few things she did make me do are now the easiest for me to do on regular basis and of course I want my children to just feel like they know life and not worry about doing laundry or whatever.

I haven’t watched this yet! Your my afternoon treat on Thursday!!!

I’ve been thinking of trying natural cycles! I’ve been struggling. It’s been almost 3 years of dealing with secondary infertility and it’s been rough. I’m hanging on by a thread. 😞 Your videos are such a joy for me and a safe and appropriate video I can always watch and feel better. In the last few years, my husband and I are trying to get closer to god and lean into our faith while we are trying for another baby. My husband is having a better time, I’m still struggling.

Oh this is so tough! That feeling of wanting to give your child a sibling and grow your family. I'd definitely change it up if its been 3 years. I'm sure you've tried a lot already though, so best wishes and I pray your family comes to you soon!

I always find your chat/Q&A videos so interesting and enjoyable. We are very different from each other in a lot of ways, but I have been a subscriber for years and look forward to watching your videos every single week!

Long time watcher, but rarely comment. I just want to say how thankful I am for the care and consideration that you put into your videos. I noticed in a grocery video once that you had notes of the shots you wanted to grab and it REALLY impressed me. You're not just putting out content to get views, but you're actually crafting it together to bring your life and message to the world. I really appreciate it. I watch a few moms and you're definitely the most prepared and easy to watch all the way through. Also I really appreciated how you were honest that you do put Mennonite for the algorithm and there's nothing wrong with that. It's part of you and your channel. I'm a middle aged Christian homeschool mom and I still enjoy your videos when it's toddlers and things that don't necessarily apply to my life. But you're fun and such a fresh breath of air. And the algorithm brought me to you because of the Mennonite tag. 😁😘 Also i was watching a video from Angela Braniff and she mentioned really enjoying your videos and editing too. That felt like you made it, girl. Lol. Good job, Mama. Keep up the good work!! ❤️🙏🏻🙌🏻

I enjoyed this very much!! Your kids having a strong work ethic will be strides ahead of peers and they will be who gets hired:-) it builds a lot of character and pushes them and matures them. I love the way your kids play and hearing their ideas and the way they think. I was shocked the one day when fletcher said something that was very grown up I feel like he went from saying nothing and being the younger brother with vonnie so far ahead in how she did things to being very grown up!

Love the bows and the conversation ❤

I love the mennonites. I enjoy watching you. I am fifty six and I have learned so much from the Mennonite KZreadrs.

Love how you said God gave you this platform. And that you want to be a mom first. Absolutely agree. Don't change that!

I'm so glad you list yourself as being Mennonite. I grew up and live in an area with a pretty big population of Amish and grew up being told it was pretty much the same religion but you're just able to have power. I'm glad to have learned a lot more about your religion. The more you know!! PS. Love your videos!

I really enjoyed this video today, you hit the nail on the head with a lot of the questions you answered and it really hit home for me. Thanks.

I absolutely loved this chatty vlog, Megan♡ You are such a blessing, encouragement and inspiration...thank you! Your channel is one of my favourites! So much love!

I enjoyed this video! I was on birth control for 1 year after having 3 babies in 2.5 years and it was one of the worse years of my life. I don’t feel like my body is the same and it’s been a few years. Also took several months for baby number 4. I totally get what you mean about worrying about your children I find myself worrying too much! Your inspiring!

So sorry about this!

Honestly I didn’t grow up in a Christian school or community but I didn’t realize how fertility worked either until I got married and started looking into it. I feel like the general consensus is don’t get pregnant and that’s all but when we were TTC it was so helpful to actually understand how fertility works.

The book Hunt, Gather, Parent is amazing. Sounds right up your alley!

I love these chatty vlogs!! 🤍

Loved this video. Children learn the mist in the first five years of life. Teach them Everything you can about life.

I would also love to hear you talk more about your head covering practice. I am Catholic and have since began covering my head when praying (so when we go to mass). But like you, I like to continually learn. I'd love to learn more about your perspective ❤

100% agree about letting kids help with things. Gets them used to keeping things done when they are older.

Our kids feed the dogs, empty the dishwasher, always bring their plates over after meals, we're starting to work on vacuuming and keeping their rooms clean.

This last week is the first time I've ever heard the narrative that having your kids do chores is borderline abuse, which is absolutely insane to me. I have a 13 and 10 year old and we have a daily chore chart. My 10 yo has a physical disability but she still has chores bc our goal for her is as much independence as possible. Why in the world would you want to raise kids that don't know the basics of daily living!?! We homeschool partly so our kids can learn basic home ec skills that school doesn't have time to teach. I'm 37 and I don't know basic maintenance so as I learn my kids are also learning right along side us. This was a great chat, Megan. I have been LOVING your channel, thanks for sharing!

Great video, love these chatty ones. Yes please do the head covering one. I think you had some really unique aspects about a few things- why you wear a dress: it's feminine, it's ok to still love to talk weddings at any age, and teaching your kids to work at a young age: completely agree. God bless and thanks for wholesome content

I would enjoy a video about your head covering! I’m part of the group that would say that it was just for that time, but only because that’s what I was taught…I haven’t study it myself. I’d love to hear your take on it!

Yes kids should definitely help around the house. One day they’ll be living on their own & need to know how to clean, do laundry, dishes etc. I wish my parents would’ve taught me more about budgeting, money management, all of the expenses that go into getting an apartment/house. A lot of things I learned on my own. Hopefully I will be better with my own kids :)

That dress looks so great on you! It matches your skin tone and eyes so beautifully. Love your channel and your light for Christ! 💓

I recently had my breast cancer risk calculated and one of the things you plug into the formula is if you are on hormonal birth control and how long you've been taking it. It can increase your risk. Thankfully, after you've been off of it for 6 years, the risk tied to the birth control disappears. I'm never going on hormonal birth control again.

So enjoyed this! Love your videos!!❤

This was great! Love videos like this.❤

Being a Christian mother and grandmother it is heartwarming that there are young ladies/Mothers like you who are not afraid to speak God’s Word in Love and in His Truth and on KZread too! Many KZreadrs go by the wayside and do content because they only care about themselves, money and material things.
