378. My Family's Story Of Surrender And Starting Over: Reflections 10 Years Later
GET EXCLUSIVE MENTORSHIP WITH LEIGH https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship
We all have significant moments in our story. Some are years in the making and alter the direction of life. That was us 10 years ago.
One decision changed our course. But, it wasn't done blindly or out of fear. God had been working surrender in our lives the years prior to making a significant shift. This allowed my husband and I to make this change from a place of peace and joy.
Today, I am sharing a little glimpse into that as we recently celebrated our 10 year "anniversary" of a leap of faith.
My hope is this encourages you and gives you a little more insight into our story.

DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint
Let's have a little fun this summer and do a Q&A! I wish we were sitting down together with a pitcher of iced tea between us. But, since we can't do that, grab a cool drink and find a cozy spot and let's have a conversation.
We'll cover a range of topics that homeschool moms have sent in, including babies in church, feeling stagnant in faith, deciding what to do when friendships aren't serving our family's goals, getting kids motivated to read, and how to convince the judge that homeschool is the better education option.
There will be another Q&A next month, so get your questions in now!

376. Making And Creating Friendships As A Homeschool Mom With Kristen Strong
DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint
Homeschooling doesn't require you to be sequestered at home with zero interaction or friends. That means the desire you have as a homeschool mom to have friendships with other women is okay. And you should act on it!
Kristen Strong joined me on the podcast today to discuss this very topic. We talked about some practical ways to connect with other women, along with the benefits of friendships.
You may feel like you are in a season that makes growing friendships difficult, but we promise that it is not impossible!
Enjoy!

375. Tips For The Part-Time Working Homeschool Mom Or The Mom Thinking About It
GET EXCLUSIVE MENTORSHIP WITH LEIGH https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship
All homeschool moms juggle various roles and wear many hats. But, some work part-time, along with home educating their children.
Whether you work out of the home, from home, or are thinking about starting a part-time job or online business, I have a few tips to share with you today.
During my 14 years of homeschooling, I've had a few part-time gigs and have had many conversations with other women who balance work and homeschool. My goal is to equip you with some ideas that will help you figure out what is best for your family right now.
See you inside this episode!

374. Homeschooling Confidently When Your Style Or Method Is Different Than Friends
DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint
There are a lot of things that make a homeschool mom question how she is educating her children. But, one of the biggest ones is when a friend homeschools with a different style or method.
"She is homeschooling better than I am."
"Her kids seem to love homeschool more than mine."
"I should probably stop homeschooling my way and do it like my friend."
Those and other thoughts swirl through a homeschool mom's mind. Her confidence begins to waiver.
Listen, I've been there. I had a few moments where I almost threw everything in the trash and was about to replicate a friend's homeschool.
This episode is what I've learned through those experiences, along with watching the outcome when children are homeschooled with different styles and using opposite methods.
Grab an iced tea and let's tackle this tough topic together.
