Homeschooling can be a challenging yet rewarding experience for mothers who choose to homeschool. While it allows for more flexibility in scheduling and a personalized approach to learning, it also requires dedication and effort.  Effective communication, time management, and a supportive community are crucial in making homeschooling a successful and positive experience for all involved.

In this episode I am joined by Janelle Bass, who is an inspiring Christian woman, second-generation homeschooler, and a super mom to four children who shares her insights on her experiences as a homeschool mom. Janelle talks about her children, what made her start homeschooling, her experience with homeschooling, homeschool socialization vs. public school socialization, her struggles during homeschooling, and instilling God- Centered values in her children.  Janelle also sheds light on her curriculum, after-school activities, the flow of her day, TV and screen time when homeschooling and what she would have done differently. Also, advice on connecting with your child, what she wants for her kids in the future, and advice to moms wanting to homeschool!
