What Seven Years of Boot Camp Taught Us About Homeschooling

In this episode of the Homeschool Better Together podcast, I sit down with Dawn Garrett, our customer service guru, to reflect on the lessons we’ve learned over seven years of running the Homeschool Consistency Boot Camp. We talk about how consistency—not perfection—can transform your homeschool and why sticking with even a “minimum viable day” can make all the difference.

Dawn and I share some of the challenges homeschool moms face and how the Boot Camp provides tools and mindset shifts to help you stay the course. We also chat about the power of accountability and how taking charge—though exhausting—yields big results.

If you’ve been feeling stuck or overwhelmed, this episode will inspire you to take small steps toward consistency and show how even imperfect days can lead to long-term success.

Key Takeaways:

• Consistency matters more than curriculum or homeschool method.
• The "minimum viable day" helps keep you on track, even on tough days.
• Taking charge can be tiring, but it leads to the best results.
• Accountability plays a huge role in building consistent habits.
• There’s never a perfect time to start—just jump in and begin today.
