Organized Christmas Boot Camp

Hey, homeschoolers!

Last week I asked homeschoolers on Facebook how organized they felt they were on a scale of 1 to 10. Some moms told me that they were feeling good about their Christmas preparation. But other moms told me that they weren't organized at all. In fact, a few felt completely overwhelmed and relatively hopeless about their ability to create a peaceful Christmas celebration.

That response spurred me into action for two reasons. First I have a heart for homeschooling moms who struggle with organization because I've been there. One of the callings on my life is to help homeschooling moms get organized enough to do all the things God has called them to do. I wanted to help out of that passion.

But the second reason I was spurred into action is because I am feeling a bit overwhelmed myself. As I drew upon the strategies I know from experience will help me overcome the overwhelm, I knew I wanted to share the process.

So this episode is all about getting organized for Christmas. I'm calling it an organized Christmas boot camp because I expect you to take action and not just hear what I'm saying. I know you know where I'm coming from on that. I've been as guilty as anyone of just listening to podcasts without actually doing anything differently. I've created a boot camp workbook for you.

Organized Homeschool LIVE

First, I want to tell you about a boot camp coming this January. It's for homeschooling moms who crave peace and order in their homes. Imagine completing challenges that set you up for success this year and getting them done in just one day! It's called Organized Homeschool LIVE and it's unlike any other organizing resource out there. Rather than a book or course that you may or may not get to, Organized Homeschool LIVE is a scheduled online workshop. We'll get our homes and lives organized together on January 3rd. And unlike most resources, this boot camp isn't just for you. I don't expect you to find time away from your kids to do the challenges. You'll be doing them together! To learn more, go to psychowith6.com/organized-homeschool-live. Purchase your ticket now at a substantial savings! You'll receive the Organized Homeschool Life ebook and digital planner AND you'll get private group coaching with me. We'll tackle the issues that steal your homeschool sanity before the boot camp starts. I hope to see you there.

Sponsor

Now I'd like to thank our sponsor for this episode, the Overcomer movie. I loved this movie and so did my family. It's now available on DVD. Listen to this.

Organized Homeschool Boot Camp

It's time now to get our work boots on and get this Christmas organized. Are you with me? Great! This is a four-day boot camp. So you have my permission to listen to one challenge at a time and take action.

Challenge #1

The first challenge is the trusting God challenge. Yes, every month I do an episode as part of the Trust Project. In fact, if you haven't listened to the episode I did last week on trusting God for our success, I won't mind if you pause this podcast to listen to it. I've already heard from a number of you that that podcast really spoke to you.

We are going to apply the same Trust project principles that we've been using for other areas to getting organized for Christmas.
