My mission is to equip you in your calling to embrace and then thrive in your homeschool, motherhood, and homemaking. If you’re ready to get out of survival mode, feel confident, and have peace in your heart and home--you’re in the right place! Hi, I’m Leigh, a kingdom-minded wife and mom. I tried to duct tape my priorities together without the right focus for way too many years. I was busy chasing approval from others, trying to meet perceived external expectations, and flying by the seat of my pants as a homeschool mom. I finally realized that if I was going to fully embrace the life I had, I needed to operate from a place of peace and joy. That’s when I planted my feet firmly where I was and began to create beauty, seek simplicity, and live intentionally. And I’m ready to share this with you! If you are ready to love your life as a homeschool mom and to know for certainty that you are doing the right thing for your children--this podcast is for you! Close up that lesson book, mama, let the kids go play, it’s time for you to thrive! Let’s work together and get your homeschool to the place you just know it can be. We all can get stuck and not know what to do, how to adjust, or if we’re even doing it right. We’ll dive in deep to all the homeschool hot topics and create the homeschool that you and your children will thrive in!

Do you feel like you're a stick in the mud and lean towards being legalistically organized?
Maybe the other end of the spectrum appeals to you and you're worried that your fly by the seat of your pants isn't enough for your homeschool.
Quite possibly, you find yourself somewhere between those polar opposites. And your desire is to have your homeschool organized enough, but enjoy the opportunity to be flexibile since you decide the schedule.
Let's talk about finding that balance you really want as a homeschool mom because when you feel good about homeschool, everyone benefits!

Teaching a child to read is full of emotions. One minute you are excited and the next minute, you wonder if this is even possible. 
It's such an awesome responsibility and as homeschool moms, we take it very seriously. But then, the reality of the day in and day out of teaching and practicing happens. And you wonde

That struggling feeling can make you feel defeated and wonder if you should just quit or try something new or hire a tutor?

No one starts something with the intention of quitting. And that especially applies towards parents making decisions about their children. Of course, homeschooling is included in that!
So, if no one plans to quit, why are there numbers of families doing just that? Could your family be next?
Over the past decade, I've observed a few trends and one of them is the when, who, and why behind walking away from homeschooling. I thought that this should be brought to light and openly discussed so that you can combat this possibility on a personal level.
Let's break it down and see what exactly leads to quitting, but then I've got hope for you to stay the course...I promise not to leave you hanging with bad news!

Have you thought about the fact that your children are home with you and a bit of a captive audience at this point? It's true!
And that means you can focus not only on academics, but on building their character too. Which means that to do that, it needs to be a focus for your daily lessons.
With all the years of homeschooling and launching two of my children into the world, I have zero regrets of the time we focus on character training. And some days, it was the main goal for the day because it mattered more than the geography lesson.
Grab a pen and paper and get ready to analyze your goals after this episode!

But, you've decided to homeschool and it's an important priority for your family. The day in and day out execution can be a struggle though as you suddenly find the day is almost over and you haven't gotten to your plans.

It's funny how we think we have so much to keep up with before having children. Then, we add them into the mix. And oh, yeah...you're homeschooling too.
And the messes pile up and the cleaning never ends.
Where are you supposed to find the time to take back control over your home?
Here's a hint: there is only so much you can do right now. But, I've got some practical tips you can begin weaving into your weeks to take the load off your constantly growing to-do list.

Homeschooling is very uniqe from the classroom setting because...hint, hint...you aren't trying to recreate that, but you most likely have multiple children at different ages and abilities. All sitting (maybe) and looking at you for direction.
And there is only one of you! {Or two if you count Dad.}
How in the world are you supposed to teach one child to read, the other how to write a paragraph, and another mathematical order of operations? And at the very same time!
I've got you. This was me for many years of homeschooling. But, I found some tips that helped me to actually accomplish our goals and keep my sanity too.
You'll walk away from this episode with ideas that you can begin to implement immediately and see results soon too!
