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.

Show notes

The Christmas season is when homeschool moms tend to pile on the guilt. The stress is high and the to-do list is long and the holidays add an extra amount of pressure. And when you don't fulfill all of your obligations, the default is to feel like a failure.

But you really want to feel like you are making forward progress with your children's education. How can you keep up?

Today, I am sharing 3 options for your family to navigate the holiday season, all the while including home education.

Show notes

There just seems to be something holding you back from success in your homeschool. And you can't quite put your finger on what it is.

Might I offer a place to look? How about inside yourself?

Are you the one throwing off all that your homeschool could be due to unconsciously sabotaging it?

From my many years of homeschooling, I'd like to offer you 4 ways that I see this happen. But...on the flip side, I've got 4 steps to correcting this behavior. All so that you see a huge turnaround in your homeschool.

This conversation may get uncomfortable, but I encourage you to lean in and consider where you're going off track. And I look forward to seeing the huge shift that will occur by making a few corrections.
