RAR #255: The Five Habits of Happy Homeschoolers


Listen Later

What do happy homeschoolers have in common?


Over the years, I’ve spoken with thousands of homeschoolers from all over the world. When I asked experienced moms what they do to cultivate peace and joy in their homeschool lives, I discovered there are five habits happy homeschool mamas often share.


The good news is that YOU can adopt these habits, no matter what kind of homeschooler you are, what method or curriculum you use, what your budget is, or how many kids you have. You don’t need a new curriculum, schedule, or homeschooling philosophy. You don’t need to become a new person. It’s possible to feel happier about your homeschool, exactly as it is right now.


Today, I’m sharing a recording of a talk I gave at several homeschool conferences last year about the five habits of happy homeschoolers and how they can help you have a happier homeschool today.


In this episode, you’ll hear: 

  • Why building and nurturing relationships is central to a happy homeschool
  • How getting clear on your real priorities will help you simplify and do less
  • The way comparison–to others, to strangers on Instagram, to public schools–sucks the joy out of our homeschools
