Do you wish you could feel confident in your homeschool decisions? Are you concerned that you aren’t doing it right? Do you wish you could get answers to all your homeschooling questions? Are you struggling to balance all your roles in this season of life?

In this podcast, you will find tactical and realistic solutions to set you free from the concerns and stress of whether you are doing the right things.

My mission is to equip you in your calling to embrace and then thrive in your homeschool, motherhood, and homemaking.

If you’re ready to get out of survival mode, feel confident, and have peace in your heart and home--you’re in the right place!

Hi, I’m Leigh, a kingdom-minded wife and mom. I tried to duct tape my priorities together without the right focus for way too many years. I was busy chasing approval from others, trying to meet perceived external expectations, and flying by the seat of my pants as a homeschool mom.

I finally realized that if I was going to fully embrace the life I had, I needed to operate from a place of peace and joy. That’s when I planted my feet firmly where I was and began to create beauty, seek simplicity, and live intentionally. And I’m ready to share this with you!

If you are ready to love your life as a homeschool mom and to know for certainty that you are doing the right thing for your children--this podcast is for you!

Close up that lesson book, mama, let the kids go play, it’s time for you to thrive!

    274. Homeschooling Really Does Work! How Keeping It Simple With Specific Priorities Gives An Amazing Outcome With Monica Swanson On Becoming Homeschoolers

    Do you ever wonder if your homeschool kids are going to turn out okay? You're on the "road less traveled," so it's easy to wonder what the outcome will be. 
    Monica Swanson had a similar thought when she began homeschooling her boys. And now, she's graduated 3 from high school and is enjoying continuing the journey with her 13 year old.
    From all the years of homeschooling, she has grace and wisdom to encourage the next generation of homeschool moms: that's you! She didn't step into this decision with all the answers, but through the ups and downs, she found her way and wants you to do that as well.
    Join me in this encouraging conversation that will help you to figure out your priorities in homeschooling your children.

    272. How To Build the Best Bond With Your Graduated Homeschool Child: Motherhood And The Young Adult Years

    You might be many years away from graduating your child from homeschool, but can I tell you from personal experience that the time will begin to fly by? And before you know: you'll have a young adult stepping out into the world.
    One of the reasons you have decided to homeschool is to build relationships in your family. And once they are done with their homeschool academic years, that doesn't have to end. It does shift into a new season, but you can still have a great bond with your child.
    Today's episode is me sharing from my highs and lows and the mistakes that I have made in the past few years in hopes that my journey gives you insight into what's ahead for you.
