Okay, friend—this one’s raw, real, and exactly what I needed to hear myself say. As we look ahead to our ninth year of homeschooling (what?!), I’m getting brutally honest about where we’re heading, what’s working, and what absolutely isn’t.

It’s time to stop pretending we can do all the things.

I’m chatting about why I’m skipping the guilt, letting go of unrealistic expectations, and finally leaning all the way in to a simpler homeschool—on purpose. From considering new history options (like Black American History + TPT resources) to passing on curriculum I want to love but just can’t commit to, this is a full-on moment of clarity.

This isn’t about giving up. It’s about showing up for our real life.

Whether you're deep in planning season or just starting to feel the burnout creep in, I hope this episode gives you permission to choose what really serves you—your time, your energy, and your family.

✨ Let’s take simple seriously, together.
