In this episode, we dive into the ups and downs of homeschooling with learning differences—chatting about dyslexia, how different curriculums can serve unique needs, and why sometimes it’s okay to wait until September to really get started. We also celebrate one of the sweetest perks of homeschooling: empty parks, quiet libraries, and wide-open spaces all to ourselves. Join us for encouragement, ideas, and a reminder to find joy in the journey!

May has become the new December—or so the memes say. In this episode, we unpack the cultural phenomenon of “Maycember” and the deeper issue beneath the overwhelm: the idol of busyness. Why have we normalized constant hustle? How did our calendars become so crammed that we barely notice the turning of the seasons? And what does Scripture have to say about margin, rest, and living at a sustainable pace? Join us as we explore how to break free from the pressure to do it all, and instead reclaim a slower, more intentional rhythm for our homes and our hearts.
