Regardless of whether you homeschool or not, there comes a time in every school year when learning loses its sheen and everyone (mom, dad and kids) is burned out and lacking motivation.  

We've got solutions for you! Most learning frustrations can be boiled down to one of 6 problems we see most often in our kids' education: speed of learning, level of material, amount of work, scheduling issues, lack of interest and/or a need of additional support for the parent educator. So let's get our "scho-jo" back! :)

The word "discipline" gets a really negative rap but all it means is teaching our kids orderly behavior and self-control. We don't want to raise robots, we want to raise self-aware, disciplined members of society who understand that, good or bad, there are always consequences for our actions.

It's no secret: we love babies and birth! Mostly because we've learned a thing or two during our past several decades of giving birth. Too many mothers expect to show up at the hospital in labor and have everything go smoothly, but our maternal health care system is failing us and we need to be informed.

If you're feeling called to learn more about birth choices, this episode is the perfect jumping off point to head you in the right direction. We want you (and your baby!) to have the best, healthiest and most peaceful birth possible, and in order to do that, you're going to have to do some research and make some important (and possibly difficult) decisions.
