212. Hygge Homeschool for the Holidays
56m · PublishedAs the leaves turn and the days shorten, there's a distinct shift in the air – it's the cozy season, a time for warmth, reflection, and connection. This season, we're embracing the Danish concept of 'hygge' (pronounced 'hoo-ga') in our homeschooling journey. Hygge is all about creating a warm atmosphere and enjoying the good things in life with good people. It's the warmth of morning light streaming through the window, the comfort of a hot cup of cocoa, the joy of a shared story.
Today we’re delving into how hygge can transform the homeschooling experience. As the season changes, so does the rhythm of our homes and our approach to education. It's a time to slow down, to savor, and to connect more deeply with our children through learning and play.

211. The Danger in Setting Boundaries
37m · PublishedWith the holiday season approaching, I’ve been hearing all kinds of advice about boundary setting. As a grandmother myself, I’ve experienced firsthand how relationships and boundaries evolve with adult children over time. I think what’s missing from most modern conversations about boundaries is how important it is to start from a place of empathy, exploration, and open communication. Boundaries should be like fences, not walls— Walls are immovable and permanent, and you can't see through them. Fences can be moved, they can be adjusted, and they have gates that let people in and out.

208. The Emotional Impact of Divorce, Part 1
1h 6m · PublishedToday's episode dives into the emotional aspect of divorce, especially its impact on children. From my personal experience as a child of divorce and later, as a divorced woman, I hope to shed light on finding stability post-divorce. A friend once encouraged me during my tough times saying, "Julie, keep going. We have cookies on the other side." This simple phrase became a beacon of hope, suggesting a promising life post-divorce. Today, we’ll discuss the emotional layers of divorce to better understand and support those going through it, whether you're directly affected or know someone who is.

207. Cycles in Learning and Housekeeping
46m · PublishedWhat do the laundry cycle and the learning cycle have in common? A lot, actually. Today, we apply KC Davis’s take on laundry to homeschooling.
In her book “How to Keep House While Drowning, KC Davis talks about how the goal of the laundry cycle shouldn’t be to have all your family’s clothes clean at once. The goal is for everyone to have clean clothes to wear that day. The goal is to keep the cycle moving.
We think the same concept applies to homeschooling. The goal of educating your child shouldn’t be linear mastery. The goal is for your child to be able to tap into curiosity, knowledge, and problem-solving at any moment. The goal is to keep the learning cycle going.
Lots of “aha!” moments in this episode– join us as we process it all.
