Feeling overwhelmed by homeschooling kids at different stages? You’re not alone—and we’ve got the encouragement (and practical tips) you need! Join Delise Germond and Kelli Wilt, two full-time working homeschool moms at different stages of the journey, as they share honest, grace-filled advice for homeschooling young children. Whether you’re just starting out or feeling stuck in the daily grind, this conversation is packed with wisdom you can use today. Kelli opens up about her early years of hypercritical self-assessment, thinking she had to prove homeschooling was the right choice by making her children the “best” at everything. She shares how God shifted her expectations and why extending grace to yourself, your children, and your community changes everything. The biggest victories often come in moments of vulnerability when you realize you’re not alone in the struggle. Discover why trying to recreate the classroom model at home feels like wearing shoes that are half a size too tight, and how embracing the discomfort of something new leads to a beautiful fit for your family. Learn why rhythms and routines beat rigid schedules every time, and how to build in margin for those big feelings that little people (and big people!) experience.
