Lots of positivity

Just starting our homeschooling journey and there is so much out there that it can be overwhelming! When I feel overwhelmed by everything I love listening to this podcast and all the positive energy and information that it provides! I love hearing from fellow mamas about their ups and downs and everything in between! Thank you so much for putting all the positivity out there! ❤️

Sharing of diverse thoughts

Miss you guys!!

Original review: This podcast has been a God-send. It has been difficult as I have tried to educate myself about homeschooling to not become overwhelmed, and this podcast has been such an encouragement to trust my own instinctive ability to love, nurture, and educate my children. I am sharing these episodes with my friends, and so grateful for the content!
