    About the Episode

    When I think back to when I started homeschooling as a working mom, I wasted so much time! My idea of where to start with homeschooling was quite misguided to be honest!

    I concentrated on all the wrong things and it caused resistance from my kids, me to be totally frustrated and general bad vibes in our house. Not fun!

    On today's episode of The Strike a Balance Podcast for Working Homeschool Moms, I want to share with you what I found to be really important. It might come as a surprise to you. Or you might think that it doesn’t even make sense. But hear me out first please!

    Because if I can save you even a few days or weeks of stress and frustration, it will be totally worth it! I will have done my job!

    About the Episode On the Strike a Balance Podcast for Working Homeschool Moms this week, I chat to Autumn McKay. With over a decade of marriage and the proud parent of two sons and a daughter, Autumn brings a wealth of personal experience to her work. Her lifelong dream of becoming a teacher led her to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Early Childhood Education, subsequently acquiring certifications in multiple states. Balancing her passion for education with the joys and challenges of motherhood, she's channeled her passion into creating engaging activities for my children, resulting in successful books like The Ultimate Toddler Activity Guide and The Ultimate 1 Year Old Activity Book. Understanding the importance of nurturing young minds, she's expanded her series to cover various age groups, from toddlers to first graders. Recognizing the burnout that can accompany motherhood, she developed The Full Life Gratitude Journal for Moms to help others find joy and mindfulness in their daily lives. Beyond education and parenting, she finds joy in outdoor activities with her family, dream vacation planning, and immersing herself in the pages of captivating books. It's always so important to talk about burnout. Autumn has some really practical tips to share to help you balance when everything becomes overwhelming.
