Homeschool Better Together with Pam Barnhill

How a Simple Mindset Shift Changed Everything for This Homeschool Mom


Listen Later

Consistency in homeschooling can be a game-changer, and today I’m joined by Krystal Joslin, a military homeschooling mom and graduate of the Homeschool Consistency Boot Camp. Krystal shares how she went from a go-with-the-flow approach to building a structured, consistent homeschool routine that works—despite frequent moves and unpredictable schedules.

She opens up about the challenges she faced, the small changes that made the biggest difference, and how consistency has transformed her homeschool (and her confidence as a mom!). If you're struggling to find a rhythm, Krystal’s story will encourage you that small changes lead to big results.

Key Takeaways:

  • Small, consistent habits build a strong homeschool foundation.
  • Clear expectations reduce resistance from kids.
  • A simple daily routine can keep learning on track.
  • Self-reflection and small tweaks lead to long-term success.
  • Homeschooling confidence grows with consistency.
