Episode 206
Juggling homeschooling lessons during busy seasons can feel overwhelming and discouraging. But what if you could shift your mindset to help you navigate? Because the truth is ~ it’s never all or nothing!
Join Jean on the podcast as she uncovers how to transform fears, anxiety, and self-doubt into self-assurance with personal anecdotes from her homeschooling journey and simple, doable ideas.
When anxiety and overwhelm surface in homeschooling, mini-blocks can offer an easy way to create structure and build connection with your kiddos. Just showing up and getting started will help you build momentum and confidence.
Because perfection is not the goal ~ connection and creativity are really the keys to a fulfilling homeschool experience.
