It's the end of September (or any homeschool month really), and it's likely that the 'new' of your homeschool year has started to wear off...maybe pushback has started to creep in...or get worse...

Maybe that one kid just takes FOREVER Or maybe you're fighting downright refusal from your kids when it's time to do their work…

We're back with our favorite board-certified behavioral analyst, and dear friend Renee Amato today and we're speaking right to the heart of our exhausted homeschool mommas.

What if you could take the best parts of home and school and put them together to educate your children? Add in a ton of community support, and that's what this week's guest has done! Listen in for a brand new perspective on the possibilities for homeschooling!

We sat down and asked the question…

What are some of our favorite homeschool resources…the ones that we come back to again and again…the ones we’d never want to be without?! And we’re sharing them on the podcast today!

Being in 'transition' is hard.  Homeschooling in transition?  REALLY hard (for most mommas).  But Kezia?  She's in transition, homeschooling in an RV, and is a lover of the outdoors!  Listen in to hear how she's navigating life while building the dream (quite literally)!

Two words...

Snack. Shop.

We want to talk homeschooling…more specifically….what an ACTUAL day in a homeschool can look like.

But, the reality is, every homeschool is different...because every child is different, every mom is different, and every family is different.

So, rather than just share what Tiffany and I do in OUR homeschools, we thought it would be amazing to reach out to other moms in our community and showcase all the real possibilities for homeschooling our families! 

In this episode we have Insiya, a Muslim woman, Wife, Homeschool Mom of three children under 6, Mental Health Educator and Entrepreneur. 

She's had 10+ glorious years as a counselor and trainer in the field of mental health between the Middle East and India and if that wasn't impressive enough, she's also been a research assistant at Stanford University.

Insiya, thank you for chatting with us today!    

We’re back, and we’re talking homeschool supplies today! Just like when you set up a beautiful nursery for your brand new baby, you can over-supply your homeschool!

The truth is, our homeschools don’t require all that much. So, we sat down and thought about what homeschool supplies we would go out and buy first if our own stashes were wiped out…

But here's the thing, every homeschool is different...because every child is different, every mom is different, and every family is different.

So, rather than share what Tiffany and I do in OUR homeschools, we thought it would be amazing to share all the real possibilities for what homeschools can look like and be! 

In this episode, we have Erin, a Navy wife, mom of four beautiful girls, and a high school art teacher turned homeschooler.

What do you need to start the homeschool year? Whether in your first year or your tenth, you’ll need these things!

In this episode, we have Maddy, wife to James, and Mama to 6 kiddies (as she calls them). She lives in New Zealand in her House Bus and 'road-schools' her kids as they travel and explore their beautiful country.

She's a lover of holistic health & natural remedies, tiny living, dark chocolate, reading, being adventurous, all things pregnancy, birth & motherhood, especially in the context of God's amazing design…

In this episode, we’re talking about how we’ll be starting a new school year. Brittany has some fantastic ideas to share, and I have a few ideas as well.

Have you ever considered what homeschooling might look like in another country? 

Here in the U.S., laws can vary dramatically from state to state, and so can opportunities for learning and enrichment.  Can you imagine how that might look on an international scale? 

Well, our guest, Jenni Cassidy can!  She's a wife, mother to 7 (including 5 graduates), and she lives and homeschools her youngest two children in the UK!  She's also the co-director of Dumb Ox Learning AND she's a consultant for Mother of Divine Grace!

Figuring out your homeschool ‘why’ can feel like chasing a mythical unicorn…but it doesn’t have to be that way!

Brittany shares her process for figuring out her ‘why’ each year (because it CAN change), and how YOU can do that as well!

Today we’ve invited one of our homeschool heroes, Sarah Mackenzie here to speak with you and bring the hope, because that's what she's done for us for YEARS.

Sarah's the author of Teaching from Rest, The Read-Aloud Family and several picture books, including Because Barbara, which officially released March 5th of this year!

She's the host of the Read-Aloud Revival Podcast, which has been downloaded

over 14 million times in more than 160 countries, and is the publisher at the boutique publishing house, Waxwing Books.

Her best work, though, is at home in the Northwest, where she and her husband homeschool their six children.

The first question most homeschoolers are asked is…which curriculum do you use? And while this is a great question (and many of us have some excellent ideas about which options are the best), this can also be a source of pain for the overwhelmed homeschool parent (or the NEW homeschool momma).

Listen in as we chat about what we’ve used over the years, what worked…what didn’t, and how to choose from the endless options that are currently available.
