Sarah Boyd's book "Turn Down the Noise" addresses the neural breakdown that happens when we are overwhelmed, distracted, and depleting our pre-frontal cortex. It is an incredible conversation between Jennifer and Sarah about the limitations of our brain, the costs of devices on parents and children, the importance of rest, and 5 principles to reverse degenerating attention span, reduce distraction, and restore mental peace.  Sarah presents the overwhelm inherent in modern life as the missing piece when we are examining dysfunction in our life that maybe counselling, better food, or more sleep isn't fixing. Also, the future needs children who are imaginative and creative, and these are skills that are developed in space and quiet not through reams of work and activities.  Episode sponsored by the Peaceful Press!

Trying something new shouldn't feel like failure waiting to happen, but for many Catholic homeschooling moms, even good changes can trigger self-doubt, pressure, and shame that makes you want to quit, sometimes before you even start. I don't want you to get stuck there, especially at the beginning of Planning Week when 100+ Catholic homeschoolers are learning new things for their homeschool year. I want to help you understand why your brain resists change, how it quietly sabotages your best intentions, and what to do when your inner dialogue starts to sound like a middle school bully. So grab your earbuds to learn: Why certain questions like “Why can't I figure this out?” are actually harming your confidence. How to shift from self-criticism to self-coaching with healthy self-love. Why mindset work is essential for you as a mom, and how it impacts the way you speak to your kids. Practical, grace-filled thoughts to help you persevere through discomfort, not shrink from it. The work you're doing matters, mama. You matter. How you feel matters. And it's entirely within your control to shift and change. Homeschooling isn't just about your children's education. It's an opportunity for you to grow closer to the Lord and it starts with how you speak to yourself. Tune in to learn how to uproot self-sabotage and begin living, homeschooling, and mothering with clarity, confidence, and Christ-centered compassion.

In this powerful episode of The Homeschool How To Podcast, meet David Alford—a former public high school English teacher who left the classroom to homeschool his children and eventually became an award-winning independent filmmaker.When David's wife entered medical school, he made the bold decision to leave his teaching job to stay home with their daughter. That moment sparked a complete shift in his view of education. What started as a practical move quickly became a transformative journey into child-led learning, educational freedom, and the incredible impact of storytelling in education.You'll hear how David and his family learned history through novels, explored creativity through theater, and turned homeschooling into a lifestyle filled with meaning, flexibility, and purpose. His latest film, Searching for the Elephant, takes on addiction with empathy—rooted in the same storytelling values that shaped his homeschooling philosophy.

Next week my husband and I are celebrating 25 years of marriage

This week on the podcast, we get real about something we ALL feel at some point (or every day): OVERWHELM. If you're juggling year-round homeschooling, multiple ages, neurodivergent needs, big summer transitions, and the regular chaos of life, this episode is for you.   Here are some highlights and takeaways: Overwhelm is Normal—You're Not Alone! Whether it's decision fatigue, comparing your journey to others, or executive function struggles (for you AND the kids), it's okay to feel like you can't do it all. Colleen reminds us: “Homeschooling parents of neurodivergent kids—overwhelm is expected. This is normal.” Reframe Success Success is NOT getting every single lesson checked off or enforcing perfect handwriting by sixth grade. It's about making progress, fostering curiosity, connecting with your kids, and staying flexible. Celebrate the little wins and focus on connection over perfection. Embrace Flexibility (and Ice Cream for Dinner!) Sometimes you have to toss the plan and go for ice cream, or ditch the math lesson in favor of a walk or a snuggle with a documentary. Homeschooling gives us permission to prioritize what matters most in that moment—connection, not just curriculum. Community Matters You're not meant to do this alone. Colleen invites you to join the free space in The Learner's Lab for support, conversation, and a judgment-free zone to connect with other parents who get it. Remember Your Why Homeschooling is a loving, intentional choice, especially for neurodivergent kiddos who need something different. On hard days, revisit your original “why”—it can help ground you and remind you of the long-term wins. Raising your kids at home is messy and beautiful. So take a deep breath, let go of the guilt, and remember: You are the perfect parent for your kids, and they are the perfect kids for you.   Links and Resources from Today's Episode Our sponsor for today's episode is CTC Math The Homeschool Advantage: A Child-Focused Approach to Raising Lifelong Learners The Homeschool Advantage: A Child-Focused Approach to Raising Lifelong Learners Audiobook Raising Lifelong Learners Membership Community – The Learners Lab Raising Resilient Sons by Colleen Kessler, M.Ed.

What if the key to saving America isn't found in Washington D.C., but in the hands that rock the cradle? Join host Robert as he sits down with Kimberly Fletcher, founder of Moms for America, who transformed from a patriotic mom into a patriot after 9/11 when her Air Force husband narrowly escaped the Pentagon attack. With over 20 years of grassroots activism experience, Kimberly shares how God called her to start a national organization despite feeling completely unqualified—and how that humility became her greatest strength. Discover why Kimberly believes America's identity crisis can only be solved by empowering mothers, how the left wins through storytelling while conservatives fight with statistics, and why building relationships with legislators through birthday cards and thank-you notes is more effective than angry phone calls.

Send us a textWhat if our traditional education system is fundamentally misaligned with how humans naturally learn? Jesper and Cecilie Conrad continue their conversation with Jamie Rumble, exploring the philosophy and practice of unschooling within a nomadic lifestyle.Jamie shares how his background, including influences from Paulo Freire and the concept of eco-pedagogy, shapes his approach to teaching and learning.The discussion challenges the traditional structure of schooling, contrasting prescribed curricula with the emergent, curiosity-driven learning that happens in real life. Cecilie and Jesper explain why their family chooses not to worry about global crises like climate change and instead focus on adaptability, freedom, and the ability to hold discomfort and uncertainty.They describe how living on the road exposes their children to different cultures and environments, building emotional intelligence and cultural humility. The episode examines the pitfalls of seeking “teachable moments” and questions the idea that adults should determine what children need to learn.Reflection, dialogue, and presence are highlighted as essential elements of education. The conversation closes with a discussion of planetary citizenship, beauty, and the importance of navigating both challenges and joys with intention and love.

Recorded live from the 2025 Illinois Christian Homeschool Convention (ICHE), Monte Larrick converses with Abraham Hamilton III. Hamilton is a husband, Bible teacher, a national radio host & TV host, a lawyer & homeschool father who was a keynote speaker for ICHE’s 2025 Conference, themed “This We Believe.” Hamilton encourages listeners to prioritize homeschooling, because: “For far too long, people have failed to recognize that mind cultivation is essential to disciple making. So if we would export and cede the authority to cultivate our childrens’ hearts and minds to people whose positions really are hostile to Scripture, then we could very well be ceding our children to a context against what we ultimately want to see, which is that 3 John 4:4 phenomenon.… Continue Reading

What happens when life throws you a devastating curveball? For Kody and her family, her husband's end-stage liver disease diagnosis with just one year to live became the catalyst for a complete lifestyle transformation. They sold everything, bought a farm, and began growing their own food—a decision that ultimately led to his liver fully healing eight years later.This conversation takes us deep into the intersection of homesteading and homeschooling, revealing how one family found purpose, health, and a thriving business by reconnecting with traditional skills. Kody shares candidly about their journey from thinking "we don't want to spend all day with our children" to creating an integrated life where education happens naturally through meaningful work. Her story of watching her once-struggling son thrive outside traditional education—eventually becoming a $50/hour foreman at age 20—challenges conventional thinking about learning and success.As founder of Homestead Education, Kody created curriculum that's now used in five countries after discovering a surprising gap in agricultural education resources. "Food is literally humanity's most driving force, and yet nobody knows how to do it," she explains, describing how her materials blend agriculture, science, and home economics for all ages. From raising heritage pigs to managing a micro-dairy, her family demonstrates how developing self-sufficiency skills creates resilience and purpose beyond what conventional systems offer.Whether you're curious about homesteading, considering homeschooling, or simply interested in more sustainable living, this episode offers practical wisdom and inspiration.

The markets are moving like a rollercoaster, driven by tweets and geopolitical tensions that shift from World War III fears to peaceful resolutions within weeks. Headlines change faster than investment strategies can adapt, leaving many wondering whether anything has fundamentally changed or if it's all just noise.In this episode, Hans welcomes back Joe Withrow, founder of the Phoenician League, to discuss how to maintain a long-term investment strategy amid short-term chaos. Their conversation cuts through the daily market drama to examine what matters for building lasting wealth.The discussion reveals why the fundamentals haven't changed despite daily headlines, and how tools like Infinite Banking Concept (IBC) can serve as the foundation for building generational wealth that transcends market volatility and creates financial freedom for future generations.Check out Joe's work at https://joewithrow.com/, or visit https://phoenicianleague.com/ to learn more about the Phoencician League. The Two-Tiered Investment Approach: A philosophy of separating investments into financial security (gold, Bitcoin, strategic stocks) and financial independence (real estate, mortgage notes, cash flow investments). This framework helps investors stay focused on long-term wealth building rather than getting caught up in daily market swings.IBC as Financial Foundation: How Infinite Banking Concept serves as a strategic cash warehousing system outside the traditional banking framework. Beyond tax advantages, IBC provides the flexibility to capitalize on opportunities while building toward generational wealth transfer that can end the "rat race" for future generations.Government Spending Reality Check: Despite initial optimism about DOGE and spending cuts, the conversation reveals why meaningful budget reductions remain unlikely. With only $9.4 billion in rescission bills compared to trillion-dollar deficits, the system continues its trajectory of money creation and asset price inflation.Resilience Beyond Finance: Building non-financial resilience through home preparedness, local community connections, and relationships with local farmers. This approach acknowledges that true security comes from people and community, not just portfolio performance.➡️ Chapters:00:00 - Introduction and Market Volatility Overview02:00 - Joe Withrow's Background and Investment Philosophy05:00 - Recent Geopolitical Events and Market Impact08:00 - The Two-Tiered Investment Strategy Explained11:00 - IBC's Role in Wealth Building Strategy14:00 - Generational Wealth and Breaking the Rat Race17:00 - Dollar-Cost Averaging and Market Timing20:00 - DOGE Disappointment and Spending Reality24:00 - Government Asset Monetization Possibilities27:00 - System Collapse vs. Muddling Through31:00 - Building Community and Local Resilience34:00 - Real Estate and Practical Wealth Applications37:00 - Homeschooling and Educational Freedom41:00 - Dollar System Evolution and Stablecoin Strategy47:00 - Venetian League Network and Implementation FocusGot Questions?

Reading in community can take you more deeply into a book, and more deeply into the heart of friendship, too. If you've ever wanted to start a book group or wondered how to lead a class discussion on a classic work of literature, Jennifer Dow's wise counsel can help you do both. You don't have to know everything about a book in order to do this. Jennifer suggests that “If the goal is community and the hospitality that leads to healing, we must provide free space with clear, helpful boundaries. We must meet people where they are, at the same time offer or invite others to a vision of what can be, together, shoulder to shoulder. This expresses itself in the environment we curate, the content we behold, and the way we teach or read.” Join us to learn more about how to cultivate a reading atmosphere that leads to learning, growth, and relationship. About Jennifer Jennifer Dow is a classical teacher, speaker, and writer. Jennifer has completed the CiRCE Apprenticeship as a CiRCE certified Classical Teacher and has taught humanities, logic, rhetoric, and the fine arts since 2009.

Jennifer has spoken across the nation on how to teach and encounter the classical liberal arts and hosted The Classical Homeschool Podcast, been featured on Your Morning Basket Podcast with Pam Barnhill and The Commons with Brian Phillips. Currently, Jennifer is writing her first book about the journey of classical learning and teaching, serving as the Director of the Paideia Fellowship, and researching how parents, leaders, and teachers can provide an authentic and healing classical education to all.
