Goldmine!

Whenever I listen to one of these episodes, I pick whatever month I’m living in (since I listened to all a while after publishing). Each episode reminds me that we are all dealing with a lot of similar issues. It’s not because I’m so terrible or that I’m doing a poor job of raising my kids. It’s just that homeschool life looks different compared to other families who do not homeschool. We homeschoolers may have different methods or schedules, but there are certain overarching themes through the seasons of our school year where we all share a certain ebb and flow. It makes me feel sane, heard, understood and encouraged! I hope someday they will put out a new season! This is one of the most beneficial podcasts I have listened to as a homeschool mom of 7 years. And I’ve listened to a lot!

The Struggle is Real

Leave it to these two gals to remind me that we all
deal with the same issues. Love to listen late in the afternoon just to enjoy fellow moms chatting about what worked, what didn’t and also nice to pick up an idea or two.

Entertaining and relaxing for homeschool moms!

This podcast is a very relaxing kind of podcast. They do talk about real life subjects relating to homeschooling but they also just chat and laugh about real world funny moments that homeschool moms can totally relate to! It’s a relaxing kind of podcast that still has some insight gems sprinkled in so you can justify listening to it as “homeschool research”. :D
