186: What a ”Normal” day looks like in our Homeschool

Ok, let's be real! Our "Normal" homeschool day has changed over the years.

> It started with having a strict schedule and Curriculum for each subject.

>Then evolved into simplifying our Curriculum to Books for the main subjects and learning how to leverage other courses & classes to help me teach.

> Now I learned to integrate homeschool into our lifestyle.

 

So here's my tips to help you envision if homeschooling will fit into your life.

185: ”Can’t you just Commit to Something for the Next 20-30 years?!” Why You Should STOP being Ashamed of your Multi-Faceted Self!

My 39th birthday is coming up & as I reflect upon my 20s & 30s, I had a moment where I felt ashamed of doing so much in my life, having so many interests, wanting to try a "new thing".

I've been told, "Why can't you just stick to something for 30 years?"... OR "You're doing something NEW again?"

I had my own moment of self-doubt and shaming myself. Until I flipped the script to: "I love how I'm able to experience SO much in my life"

In this episode, my hope is to inspire you to do the same.

179: Having to Uphold the Imagine that you ”Have it all Together” is Bull. How this doesn’t serve your Homeschool, Business & Life

"Having it all together" is an unrealistic side-effect of going for our goals or pursing our purpose. Because we think that we have to show this in order for other people to think that they can Homeschool their kids, Build a Business or Be a great Mom.

But that's a lie that I used to live to. Instead, there's more important things to focus on and better ways to be a Servant Leader in your home, life, homeschool and business.
