Summary

Lately I've been thinking a lot about overconsumption in homeschooling and motherhood — and honestly, I don't think it's really about the curriculum. I think many of us are carrying an enormous amount of pressure to do more, optimize more, and somehow finally feel like we're doing enough. In this episode, I'm talking about homeschool overwhelm, decision fatigue, emotional clutter, and the constant feeling that one more purchase might finally make everything click. This is a grounded conversation about slowing down, evaluating what we already have, and trying to make intentional decisions instead of pressure-driven ones.
