🛠 From Home Projects to Heart Work — Our Journey Together

When I first launched Connect Home Life, it began with a simple mission:
To help fellow empty nesters make their homes feel warm, welcoming, and meaningful again — through DIY projects, home improvements, comforting recipes, and encouragement for this new stage of life.

Keep Your Mouth Shut & the Welcome Mat Out


But something deeper kept stirring…

As I walked through my own seasons of transition — health challenges, job shifts, spiritual reset — I realized it wasn’t just about the house anymore.

It was about what happens in the heart when the noise quiets, the calendar clears, and you’re left wondering:

“What now?”


That’s when Connect Home Life began to shift from decor to discovery.
From rearranging rooms to realigning rhythms.
From projects to purpose.

✨ That’s why we’re introducing a new name to reflect this deeper journey:

📣 Welcome to the Purpose Reset Community!

This space is for faith-filled midlife parents navigating transition and rediscovering joy, clarity, and connection—together.

Thank you for being part of this beautiful pivot. Let’s keep walking this journey with purpose.

You spent decades putting everyone else first… now the house is quiet, your calendar is wide open, and you're wondering—what’s next?

If you've ever thought:
- “I don’t even know who I am anymore.”

The Purpose Reset is your invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect—with your faith, your identity, and your purpose.

You’re starting fresh.

About Jo

Hi, I’m Jo Wilhelm—founder of Connect Home Life and fellow midlife mom navigating this new season.

I created the Purpose Reset after facing my own hard transitions: leaving my career due to health issues, raising a family, and then watching my husband go through open-heart surgery and job loss—right as our kids left home.

It was overwhelming… but my faith became my anchor.
Now I help others rediscover their purpose, realign their lives, and walk confidently into what’s next.
