  • 40- Homeschooling the Younger Kids and Mindset Matters: the Deserve It Factor

    In this episode I talk about finishing up my homeschooling career. I still have a few years left, but my youngest is 12 and my 5th child is headed out to college. None of it is new for me anymore, but we have to keep going! It is a grind and I have to make sure to keep on task.


    For Mindset Matters today we talk about understanding your strengths and weaknesses and making plans to improve and progress.


    Thanks for listening!

  • 38- Homesteading is not just Self Reliance- buy local, learn skills

    In this episode we talk about how homesteading is not just trying to become self sufficient because that is almost impossible, but it's more about learning skills, supporting your local farmers and understanding where our food comes from and how to produce some of it. This is a basics discussion which will hopefully encourage you to go ahead and try something new, and encourage you to keep trying even when things don't go so well!
