53 | Why homeschooling wasn't working for us and what I did to fix it.

Are you feeling called to homeschool? That little tug in your heart that just says, oh, I would love to homeschool. And you're also feeling like it could never fit into the lifestyle you have. Or maybe you are homeschooling and you've taken that leap of faith to start, or you've been doing it for a while and it still just feels like it's not working. If this is you, I have been there too. And on today's episode, I am going to share with you what these experiences have looked like for me, where I felt like it wasn't going to work, and how I pulled out of that to stay committed and continue the life that we want to have.
