Customer Reviews
My absolute favorite homeschool podcast!
Every single episode is full of so much wisdom! I often listen to episodes more than once just to take it all in. I’m so grateful for everything Jean shares and I love how relatable, authentic and encouraging she is. If I’m feeling overwhelmed in our homeschool, Jean’s podcast always grounds me and brings me peace. I love how she shares her advice in such a simple and practical way. Every episode leaves me with a fresh perspective and new ideas that I can use right away in our homeschool.
This is the podcast you need!
Jean is amazing! I love the calming and inspirational tone of her voice. You can tell she is passionate about homeschooling but not a “know it all”. But somehow it seems she does know it all. (Phew! Thank you) Listening to her podcast is like having coffee with your best friend and mentor.
Every. Single. Episode. is chock full of inspiration, validation, and tangible - use them right now- tips! Her show notes are so great and a perfect recap to help you write down all the things that spoke to you and you want to think about, research, and implement.
I have listened to probably 10 homeschooling podcast, followed way too many social media accounts, and read countless books and articles….THIS IS THE BEST. If you want guidance for a holistic approach to living life, finding joy and meaning in your family, and educating your kids with all the beauty that is the earth and human nature then this is the only one you need.
If you take only one thing away from Jean, she sums it up perfectly “Instead of focusing on perfection, focus on connection.” Thank you, Jean. You have made me a better person, wife, friend, mother, and educator.
Wonderful for All Families - Homeschool or Not
I am new to this podcast, and already it has positively impacted the way I think about myself and my children, and helped to inspire and inform the intentional environment we are creating for our family. We are not full time homeschoolers ourselves, and yet have taken away so much valuable insight and information - I would recommend many of the episodes to all parents, regardless of whether you homeschool, or not.
