Hey, homeschoolers!

Did you notice the new intro? I thought it was time for a change as we begin a new year and a new decade.

As I also prayed about topics to share on the podcast this year, I asked myself what I see as the biggest need of the homeschooling moms I talk with. One subject immediately came to mind: anxiety.

I have done a show on helping your anxious homeschooled child. And I believe that the entire Trust Project series addresses anxiety in moms. But I want to share more on this topic personally, professionally, and Scripturally.

Sponsor: Homeschool Moms Science Podcast

Before we dive in, I want to thank my sponsor: the Homeschool Moms Science podcast.

This new podcast is specifically geared toward helping homeschool moms teach and enjoy science.

It's hosted by homeschool dad, scientist, and former college professor, Greg Landry.

Topics covered include:

- when to take which middle and high school science classes

- What you haven't been told about the ACT and SAT

- What we learned from finding and choosing colleges for our homeschooled daughters

- How teaching science should differ for likely science major students and non-science students

- The keys to studying science

- The unusual benefit of daily graphing

- Your science teaching questions answered

- 4 science teaching mistakes and how to avoid them

- And much more

Listen to this upbeat, encouraging, sometimes humorous podcast for homeschool moms...

including the science story of meeting his wife.

Resources for Anxious Homeschool Moms

Read the blog post

If you have a mild problem with anxiety, I recommend listening to How to Stop Worrying and Start Living by Dale Carnegie. I highly recommend the audiobook version.

I also recommend The Anxiety & Worry Workbook by Clark & Beck. These books will help you to think differently, thereby reducing your anxiety.

Christian biographies by the Benges

Join me next week for another installment of the Trust Project. We'll discuss how to trust God for our loved one's salvation.

Have a happy homeschool week!
