Little by Little Homeschool – Christian Homeschooling and Motherhood

Do you wish you felt confident in your homeschool decisions instead of constantly second-guessing yourself? Are you overwhelmed by questions, pressure, and the many roles you carry as a homeschool mom?

The Little By Little Homeschool Podcast offers tactical and realistic encouragement to free you from the stress, pressure, and constant uncertainty that so many homeschool moms feel. You'll find practical guidance and mindset shifts that help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and peace.

Hi, I'm Leigh, a Christian wife and mom who spent far too many years trying to duct-tape my priorities together. I chased approval, tried to meet unspoken expectations, and navigated homeschooling without a clear foundation.

I finally realized that if I was going to fully embrace the life I had, I needed to operate from a place of peace and joy. That's when I planted my feet firmly where I was and began to create beauty, seek simplicity, and live intentionally.

If you are ready to love your life as a homeschool mom and to know with confidence that you are doing the right thing for your children–this podcast is for you!

Together, we'll dive into homeschool hot topics, practical adjustments, and mindset shifts that help you create a homeschool where both you and your children can flourish—little by little.

When you're in the trenches of homeschooling, you wonder if all of this is worth it?

The academics, discipleship, life skills, character building, activities, housework...and on and on. It sure would be nice to have some confirmation that you're on the right track.

Drawing from our 15 years of homeschooling, I'm sharing some major moments that confirmed my family's decision to homeschool. My hope is that you can see these right now in your life and that it gives you the encouragement you need to continue on.

As you near the end of this homeschool year, how are you feeling about it?

One way to help you create a great homeschool is to reflect back upon the year. But, it has to be done honestly. Painting a perfect picture doesn't help you, your children, or your family as a whole.

Today's episode is a guide to help you look upon all that you did and didn't do this year to get a better idea of what will serve your family best in the next homeschool year.

There are a couple of areas to evaluate, so grab a pen and paper so you can take some time after this episode to move forward positively.

Show notes

Academics is often what brings many families to homeschooling. But then, we realize that so much else is important in our parenting and the home education years.

One topic that keeps coming up lately, even in conversations with my grown children, is the balance between rules and relationship with parents and children. And we can easily default to focusing on one over the other.

But, in raising our children and reading tons of books, along with the guidance in Scripture, James and I have worked hard to find that balance.

Today's episode scratches the surface of this topic and I hope that it is an encouragement for you to lean in to where God is calling you to make adjustments in parenting your homeschool children.

DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint

It does not matter the size of your home or the amount of people living within it. The truth is that it is an uphill battle to keep up with everything, especially now that you homeschool your children.

Dana K. White, from A Slob Comes Clean, shares how God worked a struggle in her life to touch the lives of you, I was so concerned about homeschooling high school. It felt like something that was beyond my knowledge set. To be honest, at times it was. But, that didn't mean I couldn't do it.

And the same goes for you!

Whether you currently have a teen or are looking ahead to 1, 3, or 10 years down the road, my goal is that today's conversation equips you to look beyond just schooling, but to really educate your high schooler.

These years of homeschool high school can be some of the most enriching and memory-making years of your child's education. Grab my hand, I promise to show you how you can do it!

We sure do love and feel entitled to our alone time in motherhood, don't we? And listen, I'm right there with you. That was a coveted goal of mine, until...well, you'll get to hear my story.

You may be thinking about homeschooling or feeling like you are missing out on something you should be getting because of homeschool. Both of those camps {and anyone in between} can benefit from the little jolt to the system that this episode will give.

Friend, I'm not holding back in this one because it's important to discuss hard topics like this to gain clarity and freedom in your role as a homeschool mom.
