We unpack why we chose homeschool over private school, how we juggle work with learning, and what actually changed in our home life. From winter routines to Outschool wins and cutting December chaos, we share what’s working, what isn’t, and what we’re adding next.

• letting go of pressure during holidays and keeping daily reading
• handling family reactions and setting screen boundaries with cousins
• adapting routines for cold, windy weather and morning focus
• accelerating math while protecting foundations and confidence
• adding family-style history and science on Fridays
• using Outschool for creative, independent classes
• private school costs, rigor, and homework vs our priorities
• why hybrid programs wouldn’t solve workload or logistics
• mental load relief from ditching constant school “optional” tasks
• feeling confident after seeing both systems up close

EPISODE RERUN FOR THANKSGIVING BREAK!

We walk through the million little reasons we left public school to homeschool three kids while running a business, trading rushed mornings and rigid schedules for slower starts, focused learning, and family time. Nothing against teachers; this is about fit, values, and the lives we want to build.

We share how better sleep, steady routines, and clear expectations made our homeschool days calmer and our evenings useful. Then we dive into kid goal setting, phone etiquette that starts with us, and everyday choices about cleaning products and food that keep balance and sanity intact.

• shifting bedtimes to protect 10–12 hours of sleep
• using mornings with purpose and avoiding late-night creep
• turning big goals into small daily actions
• letting kids’ interests drive effort, not parents’ pressure
• modeling phone etiquette and delaying smartphones
• using a kid watch for safety without the internet
• signing a family phone pact at 16
• safer cleaning habits and reading labels
• choosing organic staples and explaining tradeoffs
• building balance without being rigid
