In this episode of Her Beauty Regimen with Chanel, host Chanel Martin speaks with Pamela and Misha, the mother-daughter team behind Homestead 324 — a handmade, tallow-based body care brand rooted in family, faith, and healing.

Their story begins with Pamela’s personal journey caring for her mother through cancer and Alzheimer’s — a season that led her to create her first batch of soap from scratch. That moment of care sparked what would eventually grow into a family business committed to holistic wellness and customer-first values.

The conversation unfolds with honesty and heart as they discuss the inspiration behind their best-selling Pain Relieving Salve, how they navigate running a business together, and why sensitivity, custom orders, and deep care for their customers sit at the center of their mission.

In this episode, listeners will hear: ● How personal grief gave birth to a purpose-led brand ● The story and success of their pain-relief salve ● What it’s really like building a business as a mother and daughter ● Why handmade quality and intentional customer service matter ● Encouragement for aspiring beauty founders walking through hard seasons

This episode is a moving reminder that sometimes the most painful seasons lead to purpose — and that healing can begin right at home.
