We survived (and might I say thrived...well, some of the days!!) our first year of homeschooling! And I kind of loved it. A lot. Yes, I was someone who said they would NEVER homeschool. Well, God always does something with our "nevers" doesn't He!

We are currently doing a hybrid homeschool classical education model with our oldest, Zan. We are just a mere one year in! There is no expert status here! (nor will there ever be!) In this episode I walk through what the classical education model is (7:01), what hybrid homeschooling is (22:30), how we found ourselves homeschooling (26:47), what our day-to-day looks like homeschooling (34:38), rhythms we have implemented (that now are just a part of our life!) (40:58), and at the end I answer some questions you guys had about it all (54:12)! Ultimately, my prayer is that this episode and information is helpful for you as you're sifting through with the Lord what direction He may be specifically leading you + your family in!

This conversation stirred me up and freed me up!!! Gosh, I can't wait for you to hear Courtney encourage us in our work for the Lord. She is a wife, mama and serves as the Director of Ministry Content for an organization called Women & Work which exists to see women confidently step into their God-given calling and view their work as meaningful to the Kingdom of God. She is passionate about that, along with discipleship and theologically equipping women– y'all are going to love this conversation!!! Enjoy!

Okay, I just got straight counseled for an hour 40!!! What a gift this conversation was with Ben Hamilton. Ben is a husband, father, and the Director of Care at a church here in Omaha called Citylight. We talk about caring for one another, empathy, listening, their journey with infertility, and so much more. So many golden nuggets of wisdom from Ben in this one!!! I left this conversation changed!!! Enjoy!
