Secrets of a Successful Homeschool Mom: A Manifesto of Freedom and Joy in Home Learning
Most of us have at least a few insecurities hidden inside about whether or not we can actually do this homeschooling thing. Often we are our own biggest obstacle. It makes sense that we would feel this way–after all, we’ve been taught that education is complicated. Taught that even when governments throw billions of dollars at it, the problem can’t be solved. And we don’t have billions of dollars, so what hope do we have? We’ve been told that education requires experts, and we don’t always feel like one.
But what if some of what we’ve been taught is not true? What if there is another way—a simpler, more natural way to learn? What if there are secrets of a successful homeschool mom—secrets we can tap into and use to order our days and our lives?
I believe there are, and I wrote this book in the hope that they’ll inspire you the way they’ve inspired me.
The Steady Mom’s Freedom Guide: Joyful Motherhood on Your Own Terms
Freedom within a country is vital to the health and well-being of its residents—so is freedom as a mother. It allows you to shake off the mental and emotional limitations that hold you back. Freedom enables you to come into your own, to rise to your best self. It helps you become a better mother, a better spouse, and a better friend. In other words, freedom is a win-win.
This ebook allows you to discover joyful motherhood on your own terms. The short chapters tackle two sides of freedom within parenting: practical freedom and soul freedom. Practical freedom represents those day-to-day decisions you make that feel so urgent in the moment and sap strength and energy fast. These include aspects of mothering life like decisions about screen time (yours and your kids), meal planning, and discipline. Soul freedom chapters of the book focus more on the heart of the matter—being kind to yourself in the midst of stress, lightening up, and viewing your kids through the eyes of grace.
Take a step toward freedom and joy today with the Steady Mom’s Freedom Guide.
