How to Start Homeschooling Without Feeling Overwhelmed - Printed Book

I completely understand, Momma. I felt the same way once, too!

I had been a very concerned parent for quite some time, and my son's public school situation reached a point where I felt compelled to do something. After weeks of trying unsuccessfully to console my tearful and distressed son, and failing miserably with every other option, I knew in my heart, there was no other choice but to homeschool him. The thought of sending him back to school...even just one more day, made my heart sink.

OMG, how will I ever be able to do this?! Anxious thoughts of uncertainty and overwhelm raced through my head as fear gripped my heartstrings; terrified I would fail my son. What am I doing?!

Scared to go through with the tough decision I'd made, I walked up to his school's front doors, with my heart pounding so hard I thought it would burst out of my chest. Oh well. There wasn't time for any what-ifs... not when my son needed me to advocate for him now more than ever!

I entered the principal's office and handed her my letter of intent to homeschool my son, turned around and marched right down to my son's first-grade classroom, emptied his cubby, said goodbye to his teacher and friends, and went out for ice cream.

But, then what?

Pulling him out of the public school system was not an easy decision, but it turned out to be one of the best ones that I've ever made. In fact, we are much happier now that he is no longer in a traditional classroom setting... plus, I am now homeschooling his younger sister as well (who has never been to a traditional school).

Okay, Momma! Do you want to know HOW I got started?

In this guide, I openly share with you, the exact path I took from being a skittish mom, afraid of making ALL the mistakes (yep....ALL of 'em!), to MAKING all those mistakes...to where we are today...with two thriving kiddos and a well-working system in our homeschool.

At what age can I start homeschooling my children?
From the moment your child is born, you are their first teacher! You can start homeschooling anytime! Do you have an older child? It's never too late to begin homeschooling.
Do you offer a guarantee?
Yes! If after 30 days, you do not feel confident to start your homeschool without feeling overwhelmed, I will happily refund your money.
How many hours a day does homeschooling take?
Homeschool takes much less time than traditional school, however; the older your kiddo, the longer it will take. Elementary aged kiddos can take 2 hours, middle school looks more like 2-4 hours, and high school could take anywhere between 4-6 hours.

I believe so much in the power of homeschooling and that we, the parents, are our kiddo's best advocates, best mentors, and best teachers because....we know them best!

I started homeschooling with a lot of fear and overwhelm...but, was also excited and enthusiastic! I had all these grandiose ideas about the perfect education I was going to provide for my little one, but guess what? It didn't work out that way!

In this book, I'm completely transparent in sharing the mistakes I made and the misconceptions I had along our journey when we started out, so you can see how normal it is....and that it's okay!

Homeschooling is fluid because as your kiddo grows and changes -so does their learning style, interests, abilities, etc.

With fear often comes overwhelming anxiety and some parents stop the journey before they ever begin homeschooling because of this...and it breaks my heart.

But with my book, you'll be able to get past the hurdles that are standing in your way! I remember how scary it was when I started out as a new homeschooler.

Sometimes it's enough just knowing there is someone else on your team. (That's me, Momma! I'm on your team!) So here goes: My quick guide will help alleviate any fears that stand between you and successfully starting your homeschool from day 1 (and beyond)!

For just $15.99, when you purchase the "How to Start Homeschooling Without Feeling Overwhelmed" book, you ALSO get the How to Start Homeschooling Without Feeling Overwhelmed - Companion Workbook, for FREE!!!

I can't wait to share this all with you!
