Episode Details

**Homeschool Mini Series! I'm taking a few weeks to do a mini series focusing on homeschooling and home educating- perfect for those who are thinking about a change come fall or just need ideas for ways to keep learning fun and engaging this summer break!**

Are you terrified that you're not qualified to homeschool your child—especially if they have additional needs? Have you ever wondered if pulling your kids from the traditional school system could actually give them more of what they need? What if the rigid structure of a seven-hour school day is exactly what's working against your child?

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Janae Daniels—former middle school teacher, mom of six, and host of the School to Homeschool podcast—to talk about her unexpected journey from "homeschoolers are weird" to pulling four kids mid-pandemic and never looking back. Janae gets real about the messy first day, what de-schooling actually looks like (especially for older kids and kids with learning differences), and why one-on-one is always more effective than one-on-twenty-five. Whether you're just starting to feel that nudge or you've been sitting on the fence for a while, this conversation will give you the hope and practical perspective you need.
