  • 206: Reframing Mental Health
    Apr 22 2024

    Join us as we talk about reframing mental health!

    Caring for ourselves and teaching our children how to care for themselves is critical!

    In this episode, we talk about:

    • A simple and effective general assessment to help you and your kids self-regulate during challenging times.

    • The importance of knowing when you need a break and when you need a challenge.

    • How to be proactive in talking with our kids about mental health.

    • Advocating for our kids and knowing how best to support them.

    • What to do when our kids are struggling.

    Note: The 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is available 24 hours/day via call or text.

    This last season of our podcast is for homeschooling parents, traditional school parents, and everyone in between. This is our last season and definitely our best season!

    We’re here to show you how to:

    Identify learning opportunities in everything you do, how to celebrate your child’s differences, and how to give yourself and your kids credit for all the things you’re already doing.

    If you have felt unwelcome in other spaces, we hope you feel welcome here.

  • 204: 4 Homeschool Tentpoles
    Mar 26 2024

    Join us as we discuss 4 Homeschool Tentpoles!

    These tentpoles help hold up our homeschooling structure. They’re like filters, helping us make decisions about what to prioritize and what to intentionally leave out.

    These are top-tier life skills and serve as a guide for our homeschool:

    1. Expansive thinking and inclusive practice

    2. Noticing the learning

    3. Rocking our strengths

    4. Critical thinking

    This last season of our podcast is for homeschooling parents, traditional school parents, and everyone in between. This is our last season and definitely our best season!

    We’re here to show you how to:

    Identify learning opportunities in everything you do, how to celebrate your child’s differences, and how to give yourself and your kids credit for all the things you’re already doing.
