Episode Details

If you’re ready to get started homeschooling in 2026, you’re in the right place — and you’re not alone in feeling that mix of excitement and overwhelm that comes with this decision.

When you first step off the beaten path — leaving the conventional school system behind — you might feel a swirl of excitement, uncertainty, and the overwhelming urge to research everything. That’s completely normal. Every new homeschool mama goes through it.

But here’s what I want you to know from the start: you really can do this. Not perfectly, not without challenges, but confidently and with joy.

I’m Teresa Wiedrick, and I’ve been walking this road for over two decades. My three daughters are grown up. My son is nearly heading to post-secondary. What started as a vision of girls in white dresses reading Anne of Green Gables on a white Ikea couch (please don’t ever buy a white couch) turned into something messier, richer, and far more meaningful than any utopia I’d imagined.

This guide is my gift to you: a grounded, honest, and warmly practical roadmap for getting started homeschooling.
