Do you start the day with a plan, only to have it fall apart by 9:00 AM? You’re always busy, but yet always feel behind—are you tired of always being overwhelmed?

I’ll help you create rhythms so your home feels manageable instead of overwhelming, and you can homeschool, build your business, and handle mom life without burnout. Because the truth is, we can’t do this on our own—we need Jesus in our days, in our decisions, and in the middle of the chaos.

Do you work all day? Does everything seem to crash mid-day? Do you start your day with a list of 20 things to do? Are you comparing yourself to what other moms are doing? What if the reason you’re feeling overwhelmed isn’t that you have too much to do, but because you’re trying to do things that were never required of you in the first place? Today, we’re exposing the working homeschool mom lie nobody talks about. We’re talking about why you don’t have to post on social media every day, why you don’t have to do every school subject every day, and how letting go of 'everything' is the only way to actually find peace and calm in our home and life. How many times have you said? \"I just need to get through this week, and then I’ll finally breathe.\" But then next week comes, and it’s the same thing all over again. In this episode, I’m talking about the \"Everything Lie\"—the crushing expectation that you have to be 100% everything to 100% everyone, all at the exact same time. Word for your Heart: \"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.\" — Matthew 11:28-30 Business & Homeschool Truth - We don't have to do everything everyday.
