What do homesteading, health secrets and homeschool have in common? 

They are all “hot topics” right now, as moms are waking up to the damage and diseases caused from processed foods and outside sources.

    Did you know that there are different styles of homeschooling?!

    It’s true! Homeschool is not a cutter cutter thing. It’s not one size fits all. (Thankfully!) 

    The truth is… your homeschool should be as unique as your family. That means you get to find, and embrace your own homeschooling style!

    Join me for an in-depth look at the 6 different styles, including:

    • Traditional
    • Classical

    Learning differences affect 1 in 5 American children today (according to CrossRiverTherapy.com). When they surface, it can throw parents for a loop.

    When Jennifer Mauser’s youngest child started showing signs of dyslexia, Jennifer began looking for answers. Upon evaluation, dyslexia was confirmed and the Mauser family began their journey of finding ways to support their needs (and emotions).

    Jennifer’s child grew up to become a won...

    Story time! (How fitting for today’s topic of language skills and literature?)

    It was the very first day of our homeschooling journey. The kids and I cracked open the Language Arts curriculum I’d chosen… I hadn’t thought to pre-screen the material (rookie mistake) and I began to read the instructions out loud: “Circle all the prepositions.”

    Horrified, my kids and I stared at each other blankly and we all wanted to cry. “A prepo-wha...

    Ahhhh… The expectations. The checklists. The household chores. Your kids education?! 

    Somehow we’re overwhelmed just thinking about all the things that we are supposed to be doing well. And somehow, well…. It feels hard. Like we can’t possibly keep up with it all.

    What if it didn’t have to be so hard?

    I did a thing.

    I invited my three kids onto the podcast to talk openly and honestly about their thoughts on homeschooling. Nothing was pre-scripted and I didn’t even tell them the questions I would be asking. I wanted them to share off the cuff, and from their hearts. 

    They didn’t hold back and a few of their answers even surprised me (in a good way)! <...
