Your gut is running more of your life than you think.I sit down with Dr. Karan Rajan, NHS surgeon, gut health researcher, and one of the clearest science communicators working today, to talk about why fiber is one of the most powerful levers you have for long-term health, how the gut shapes your mood and brain function, and what most people are getting dangerously wrong about protein, GLP-1s, and extreme elimination diets.This isn't a conversation about cleanses or cutting food groups. It's about understanding your gut as a living system that responds directly to what you feed it, within 48 hours.What we explore:- How the gut microbiome directly shapes mood, mental health, and brain function and why diet is often the missing variable in depression treatment.- Why high-protein, low-fiber eating is silently damaging your colon and what the data says about finding the right balance.- What prebiotics, probiotics, and polyphenols actually do inside your body and how to combine them for maximum impact without buying a single supplement.- How GLP-1 medications affect the gut microbiome and why you have to plan proactively for fiber and nutrient deficiencies if you're on one.- Why fasting, spices, and something as simple as eating with your hands can meaningfully shift your gut health and the four lifestyle levers that matter more than any test or supplement.Chapters:00:00 Introduction02:24 Why High Performers Are the Last to Take Care of Themselves07:07 From Gut Surgeon to Microbiome Advocate: Dr. Karan Rajan's Origin Story10:09 The Gut Bacteria Linked to Depression That Antidepressants Ignore14:00 Prebiotics vs Probiotics vs Polyphenols: What Each One Actually Does17:31 How to Add Fiber Without Destroying Your Social Life20:36 The Protein Mistake Even Healthy People Make29:21 How to Optimize the Pregnant Microbiome Before and During Pregnancy33:12 What Your Poop Tells You That Your Oura Ring Never Will43:36 Fasting Windows, Saunas, and What Science Says About Gut Health47:23 GLP-1s Are Changing Your Microbiome: What You Need to Add Back57:06 Why Treating One Organ at a Time Is Failing Patients01:07:27 10 More Grams of Fiber Cuts Colon Cancer Risk by 10%About Dr. Karan Rajan:Dr. Karan Rajan is an NHS surgeon and clinical lecturer who trained in general and colorectal surgery before becoming one of the most trusted voices in online health education.

What Is an Education Anyway — And Who Gets to Decide? Forget every notion you have been told about what an education is. I want to ask you something I ask every single woman I work with in coaching. What do you believe an education is? And the second question — the one that tends to stop people cold: What did you believe an education was before you started homeschooling? Most of us never actually chose our definition of education. We absorbed it. From school, from our parents, from the culture around us. And then we built an entire homeschool on top of it. And then we wondered why it felt so heavy. And if you’re just starting out and wondering where to begin — I made something for exactly that. The 7-Day Confident Homeschool Roadmap is a free guide that walks you through your first year with clarity rather than overwhelm. Grab it below. Get your free 7-Day Confident Homeschool Mom Roadmap What Is an Education Anyway? The Definition Most of Us Inherited If you grew up in a conventional school system, your working definition probably sounds something like this: Education is the successful delivery of academic content across subjects. Demonstrated through coverage, completion, and measurable progress. Coverage. Completion. No gaps. Not falling behind. Making sure it’s enough. Sound familiar? That definition is exhausting. And it’s not even working in schools. Teachers leave many pages of their curriculum undone at the end of every year. There are interruptions. Substitute teachers. Sick days. Stops and starts. There is no perfectly covered, hundred-percent-completed, no-gaps education happening in a classroom either. And the very academic kids who were force-fed information and tested weekly? How much of that actually stuck? How much of it translated into a purposeful, meaningful life? It is not possible to create a perfectly covered education. Not in a school. Not in your homeschool. The sooner you stop measuring yourself against that standard, the sooner you can build something that actually works. If this is landing for you and you want to hear me unpack it further — I’m also diving into this on my YouTube channel. Same episode, same conversation. Watch it here → https://youtu.be/1T8pINVSeXc Do You Need a Teaching Degree to Define Your Child’s Education? And if you question whether you have the intelligence to answer that question — don’t be in self-doubt. Of course you do. This is your child. Does it seem daunting? It likely does. But it doesn’t have to. I’ve stopped counting the number of times I’ve been asked if I’m a certified teacher. Nope. I’m not. Does being a certified teacher enable me to educate my children better at home? Nope. It doesn’t. In fact, statistically, being a certified teacher has no bearing on a child’s home education. Teachers have classroom management skills. They know standardized learning materials. They have years of experience that homeschooling parents might not have in the beginning — and I am not denying those skills for a moment. But it doesn’t mean I’m not more motivated to learn how to engage my children’s education than someone else. When I asked a kindergarten teacher about Grade 2 math, she didn’t know what to say. When I asked a high school English teacher how to approach a history discussion with an elementary-aged child, she was stumped too. Turns out, teachers don’t have the full breadth of knowledge either. And I’m certainly not claiming to either. Why do we think we need to? Google doesn’t have it all. Neither does YouTube. But both are pretty helpful. And when they aren’t, there are always books. Lots and lots and LOTS of books. You just need to know where to find the information. A little research and it’s findable.  So Where Do You Find What You Need? When I was in junior high, we bought our first computer: a Tandy EX 1000. The only computer training we had was a Logo program that did next to nothing for me. I attempted to wield x’s and o’s. I’m pretty sure they meant something, but I didn’t understand. Some thirty years later, anyone who wants to know how to use a computer knows. Anyone who wants to know how to Google, YouTube, Facebook, Tweet — they figured it out. Why? Because they found out, by themselves. Tada. The human mind is capable of figuring things out because it wants to. P.S. You might wonder how I went about structuring a thirteen-year-old’s academic education. Self-Education: The Heart of What an Education Really Is Why do we assume kids need everything taught to them? We assume something needs to be done to them. Before anyone sat them down and formally taught them anything, they had already learned animals, language, and how to navigate relationships. In their first year. Their second. Their fifth — long before they ever walked through a kindergarten door. Kids want to learn. It’s simply what they do. When we ask the question — what is an education anyway? — we’ve just begun to really consider who our children are and what they need. And that is exactly what Charlotte Mason was pointing to. What Is an Education Anyway? Here’s What Charlotte Mason Said. “Self-education is the only possible education; the rest is mere veneer laid on the surface of a child’s nature.” — Charlotte Mason I have returned to this quote more times than I can count. Because it points to something we already know intuitively. We keep forgetting it when we sit down at the kitchen table and default to the curriculum, the workbooks, the boxes of books, the online programs everyone else is using. Your job is not to pour information into a vessel. Your job is to raise up the child right in front of you. So what does that actually look like in a real homeschool? Here’s one mom’s answer. What Does Real Home Education Actually Look Like? A mom I worked with had been homeschooling for six years, three kids, and had done a lot of the external work — curriculum, systems, showing up every day. And then she went deeper and found her own answer to the question of what an education really is: “Education is a process of exposure to knowledge while learning involves personal processing and growth. Character traits like discernment, self-confidence, and self-management are important outcomes that continue developing long beyond formal education years.” She also said something that stopped me: “Even if no one was watching or assessing my approach, I would maintain similar objectives and methods.” She has found her own answer — not borrowed from the school system, not borrowed from a curriculum company. Entirely hers. And that is what I want for you. For me, the answer starts in the same place it always has — in wanting to engage my child, teach them when necessary, and capture their little hearts. I am most definitely motivated to do that. And so are you. That’s why you’re here. Want to keep going? This conversation continues on my Rethinking Education YouTube channel. Find it here → https://youtu.be/lkFJglpaoqs What is an education anyway? What Is an Education Anyway? Questions to Sit With This Week As you move through your week, gently ask yourself: What definition of education am I actually operating from right now? Did I choose it — or did I absorb it? Where might I be able to trust what is already working in my child? If no one was watching or assessing my homeschool, would I do anything differently? You don’t need to answer all of it today. Just noticing is already meaningful work. Want to Go Deeper? If this post resonated, the podcast episode What Is an Education Anyway? goes much further — including the five shifts I see happen when a homeschool mom finally loosens the grip of a definition that was never really hers, and what it looks like when peace replaces pressure in a real homeschool home. Listen wherever you get your podcasts. When you’re ready to take the next step, here are three ways I can help: If you’re in your first year — start with the free 7-Day Confident Homeschool Roadmap. It will give you a clear, grounded foundation so you begin with confidence rather than overwhelm. If you’ve been homeschooling for a while and something feels off — take the quiz to identify the real root of your frustration. It’s free and takes five minutes. And if you’re ready for a real reset — book your free Aligned Homeschool Reset session. This is where we get clear on what’s actually going on in your homeschool and your life — and you walk away with a whole lot more peace than you arrived with. Teresa Wiedrick is a certified life coach and graduated homeschool mom who supports homeschool moms in building a life — not just a lesson plan. Her work focuses inward, because most homeschool overwhelm has nothing to do with curriculum.

Listen to today's podcast... Beauty is only skin deep or in simpler terms, a pleasing appearance is not a guide to character. However, our skin is vital to our health. Your skin is the largest organ of your body. Your skin covers your entire body and acts as a shield from the elements. It bends with ease, warns you when something is too hot or too cold, repairs itself when broken, and plays a huge part in your appearance. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!      So Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Beautiful In Your Skin Month: Wear sunscreen daily. There are plenty of sunscreens, but the right kind of sunscreen can effectively protect your skin from the damaging UV rays. Choose a sunscreen that has an SPF of 30 and don't forget your neck and hands. Getting rid of dry, dead skin cells can leave your skin looking smoother and supple but don't over exfoliate. Be gentle to your skin and treat it with care. Hydrate. Drinking 6-8 glasses of water daily does not necessarily mean that your skin will be automatically hydrated. Stay away from tanning beds and the sun. Do a spray tan instead if you are looking for a glow. Examine your skin regularly for signs of skin cancer. Look for new or unusual spots, as well as anything changing, itching or bleeding. Remember, If you like today's wellness tips, let me know.

Take Care Of Others - Part 2 | 1 Timothy 5:11-16 | 3 June 2026 - Wednesday Evening | Dr. Brad Weniger, Pastor

It's the final sermon in our Take Care of Your Soul series! This last teaching is on the importance of play and enjoyment in our lives. 

What if everything you're doing to take care of yourself is preparing you for something bigger? We usually think of wellness through a personal lens – the food, the routines, the healthy rituals. But what if those practices aren't just about feeling better? What if they're giving us the capacity to engage more deeply with the world around us? Amy Ippoliti is a yoga teacher, author, and advocate for human and planetary health, who believes that caring for ourselves is essential, but it's not the final destination. Amy pushes back on a wellness culture that tells us to retreat, protect our peace, and tune out the chaos. For her, taking care of yourself isn't about checking out. It's what builds the resilience and clarity to stay present to the people and the planet that need you. In this episode, you'll learn: How yoga can help you become more self-aware and connected to your body Why knowing where your food comes from is key for optimal health The connection between soil health, nutrient density, and how you feel Simple ways to make fresh food more accessible Why community is one of the most underrated forms of wellness This conversation is a powerful reminder that how you care for yourself shapes how you care for the world.   Learn More about Amy Ippoliti: Website: amyippoliti.com Instagram: @amyippoliti The Art and Business of Teaching Yoga Substack: amyippoliti.substack.com   Learn More about Elise Museles: Rise & Shine Coaching Program (50% discount for podcast listeners) Food Story: Rewrite the Way You Eat, Think, and Live Website: elisemuseles.com Instagram: @elisemuseles Facebook: @elisemuseles

It's called "self-care" and unless you find the time for you, your life will be damaged.  Step one, make time for God and let Him know how you feel right now.

When your homeschool child won't do work, it's rarely just about laziness—it often signals a deeper need for curiosity, connection, and meaningful engagement. If you're a homeschool mom, you've probably said or thought something like: “My kids don't really care about their lessons. They just want to get through it so they can get on their screens.”“I think my daughter only enjoys going to coop because of her friends, not any actual learning.”“He races through his work without engaging—he's just checking boxes.”“There's outright resistance now. I don't know if it's the work or if it's me or if he’s just rebellious.” These situations are very common, not unusual. And the question behind them is universal: how do you help your child become an independent learner who is genuinely curious and engaged—not someone who treats learning like a chore to avoid? If this resonates with you, a great first step is my free Deschool Your Homeschool Checklist, which helps you step back from school-y thinking, reconnect with how your child naturally learns, and create space for curiosity, calm, and connection. Grab your free Deschool Checklist and Help Your Kids Love Learning 5 Reasons Why Your Homeschool Child Won't Do Work Reason 1: When Your Homeschool Child Won’t Do Work — Learning Feels Like a Chore Many children resist because they've learned to associate “learning” with compliance or tedium. They may rush through assignments just to get them done or outright refuse work that doesn't interest them. To be fair, we adults do that too. When someone says, “Hey, you know what would make tax season easier and more satisfying? Take a course on filing your taxes.” Interesting, you think, and clever, that’s exactly what I should do! (No, you don’t think that. You think, naw, thanks, I’ll do what I have to do until next tax season.) Can I hear an amen? ps don’t respond if you actually enjoy doing taxes, ha–it won’t serve my point;) Well, ditto for your kids. Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck explains that a fixed mindset develops when children feel their worth is tied to “doing it right.” In these cases, resistance is not a character flaw—it's a protective response. What you can do: Follow your child's curiosity whenever possible. Show them that learning happens everywhere: in the kitchen, in nature, in everyday problem-solving. Reason 2: When Your Homeschool Child Won't Do Work—Check Your Own Motivation First Kids are highly sensitive to the adults around them. If you're scattered, anxious, or uninspired, they pick up on it. Angela Duckworth, author of Grit, notes that parents who raise resilient, motivated children model passion and perseverance in their own lives. And isn’t that what we all want? This homeschool lifestyle isn’t just equipping our kids to do live a purposeful life, it’s offering us that opportunity too! (And I encourage you to take it!) What you can do: Reconnect with your own curiosity and goals. Are you motivated? What gets you up in the morning? Model learning and persistence in ways your child can observe. Show them you're engaged by joining a book club, starting your own business, or simply signing up for a class at the local community college. Show them that you're learning math concept right alongside them (or whatever other topic you find challenging, I chose math because I had to learn it before I taught it

In this episode of the Take Care and Live podcast, Dr. Stephen explores what it means to navigate sharp disagreement without destroying relationships. Drawing from the story of Paul, Barnabas, and John Mark, Dr. Peters unpacks how wisdom, discernment, and maturity shape the way we view people beyond their past failures.This conversation challenges listeners to rethink how they handle conflict, partnership, disappointment, and leadership — while recognizing that different perspectives, assignments, and seasons do not have to fracture unity or shared purpose. If you've ever struggled with trusting someone again, maintaining relationships through disagreement, or discerning potential in people others have written off, this episode offers practical and powerful insight for your personal and professional life.00:00 Introduction to Holistic Living01:48 The Challenge of Accountability and Apologies03:32 Investing in People Despite Their Past06:12 Navigating Disagreement in Relationships12:10 The Importance of Maintaining Relationships16:17 Maturity in Relationships and Disagreements19:47 Key Takeaways on Relationships and Growth

Fitness culture gets weird fast.One minute someone starts going on walks, and suddenly they're talking about seed oils, cold plunges, ancestral living, mouth tape, cortisol, and how eating bread means you've spiritually failed as a mammal.So let's be clear. This episode is not about becoming a fitness influencer. It's not about abs, vanity, steroids, punishment, gym obsession, or pretending that being in shape automatically means you're healed.But it's also not about acting like the body is irrelevant.We live through the body. We pray, breathe, sleep, eat, move, suffer, love, work, parent, age, and eventually leave this world through the body. The way we treat it matters.In this episode, I talk about why fitness is spiritual, why body neglect and body worship are both forms of disconnection, and why taking care of the vessel can become an act of gratitude instead of another self-improvement prison.We get into meditation, therapy, nervous system regulation, Islam, fatherhood, steroids, vanity, self-respect, discipline, shame, sleep, food, walking, lifting, and the strange mercy of realizing your body has been giving you a status report the whole time.This is not a “go become optimized” episode.It's more like:please drink water, stretch your back, stop treating your body like an embarrassing object attached to your head, and remember that the life moving through you is worth caring for.Welcome to Idiot Mystic.CONNECT WITH IDIOT MYSTICWebsite:https://idiotmystic.comYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@idiotmysticInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/idiotmysticTikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@idiotmysticDiscord:https://discord.gg/dXKjhZrZmM

Let's be real—transitioning into homeschool high school feels big. It doesn't matter how many years you've been at this. That shift from middle school to high school brings with it a swirl of emotions: uncertainty, excitement, fear of missing something, and sometimes—let's be honest—a bit of guilt. Pin those thoughts in your mind for a moment as I share with you a conversation we recently had in the Confident Homeschool Mom Collective. It was a rich, heartfelt conversation about this very season. And the stories shared were so resonant, I knew I had to write to them. One homeschool mama said: “Oof, high school… well, Viv is starting 7th grade and I feel like we're already behind.

Welcome to Season Seven of Nobody Should Believe Me. Andrea revisits the case of Maya Kowalski—the story at the center of the Netflix film Take Care of Maya–and the family’s high-profile lawsuit against Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital. What became widely framed as a story about “medical kidnapping” began when hospital staff reported suspected medical child abuse after Maya arrived with a history of extreme ketamine treatments. How did a case of horrific abuse become a story about evil doctors kidnapping children?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to our 2ND May episode of “Caregiving Club On Air” podcast hosted by Sherri Snelling, corporate gerontologist, author and CEO of the Caregiving Club. On this episode we highlight both May's Older Americans Month and National Home Modification Month with Sean Fitzgerald, President of TruBlueAlly, a home modification service dedicated to helping older adults live at home as long and safely as possible. On this episode Sherri talks to Sean about how of the 100 million homes in the U.S. only 1% have universal design features. Sherri calls this “Peter Pan Home Syndrome” – homes built for people who would never grow old. Sean explains how TruBlue Ally is helping to change this so older adults can live in their homes longer, safer and healthier. • Why it is essential to hire experts for ADA and universal design elements, such as grab bars, rather than a typical handyman, and what changes are needed in the bathroom - the #1 place for updates • Why many home modifications for older adults are orchestrated (and sometimes paid for) by adult children family caregivers • What critical modifications are uncovered with TruBlue Ally's 75-question assessment • What are their Home Maintenance plans and how this help family caregivers • Innovative ways to cover home modification costs for older adults Thank you for making “Caregiving Club On Air” #3 on the list of top 80 caregiving podcasts!

What This Decision Is Really About If you’ve decided to homeschool in British Columbia, you’ve already made the hard decision. But there’s a second decision waiting right behind it — and it stops a lot of families cold. Registered homeschooling vs online learning in BC — which is right for your family? After two decades of homeschooling in BC and six years of coaching families through this exact moment, here’s what I know: this decision isn’t actually about finding the right school or the right system. It’s about who you are as a family. It’s about the values you’re being called toward in this season of your life, the child standing right in front of you, and how much ownership you’re ready to take over the education you’ve already decided to give them. The government language matters — and I’ll give it to you plainly. The practical differences between the two paths matter — and I’ll walk you through them clearly. But neither one will tell you what you actually need to know. Only you can determine that. And the good news is, you already know more than you think you do. This post will help you hear it. If you’re still deciding whether to homeschool at all, start here first: Start Homeschooling in British Columbia: How to Decide What the BC Government Says About Registered Homeschooling vs Online Learning in BC In British Columbia, the government draws a firm line between these two options — and it matters that you understand it. If you enroll in online learning, you are not considered a homeschooler by the BC government. You are an online learner. Your child’s education is authorized by the Ministry of Education, delivered through an online school, and overseen by an assigned teacher or learning consultant. You follow BC curriculum as defined by the online school, work toward learning outcomes, and may have report cards, check-ins, and grade-level expectations depending on which school you choose. If you register as a homeschooler under Section 12/13 of the BC School Act, you are fully responsible for your child’s education. No required curriculum. No mandatory testing. And no Dogwood diploma is received upon high school completion. You register by September 30th — or any time you pull your child from school — with a public or independent school of your choice. And that’s essentially it. The government steps back entirely. One path keeps the government close. The other lets you close the door. (Having said that, there may be reasons you choose to travel one path versus another. I address those reasons in the upcoming BC Homeschool Clarity Session.) Get your free 1st Year Confident Homeschool Roadmap What Registered Homeschooling vs Online Learning in BC Actually Looks Like Day to Day Here’s where the registered homeschooling vs online learning in BC decision gets practical. Online learning gives you structure, a built-in support person, and in some cases funding. If you’re someone who wants a framework to lean on — especially in year one — that might be genuinely useful. The variation between online schools is significant, though. Some are flexible and relationship-based. Others feel much closer to a traditional school environment. Research the specific school, not just the category. Registered homeschooling gives you a lot of freedom. You choose the curriculum or resources, the pace, the philosophy, and the schedule. Nobody is checking in. Nobody is assigning grades. You are the architect. That’s exhilarating for some families and terrifying for others, and both responses are completely reasonable. What I’ve noticed across two decades is this: most families start more structured than they’ll eventually be. The families who begin with online learning often find, a few years in, that the structure sometimes becomes constraining rather than supportive. (But not always). And the families who begin with registered homeschooling often spend year one to four recreating school at home before they relax into something that actually fits. Both are normal. Both are part of the process. Neither choice need be permanent. My Registered Homeschooling Story in BC — The White Couch Moment When I started homeschooling, I had a vision. Three little girls in white dresses, slamming screen doors, running in from the garden, reading Anne of Green Gables on a white Ikea couch while we sipped afternoon tea. You know — utopia. The white couch lasted about a season. (A white couch in any family home is always an unwise choice.) But let me back up, because the vision didn’t start with a couch. It started with a book. We were living in Alberta at the time. My two oldest girls were in private school. I had no particular complaints — I genuinely loved my daughter’s kindergarten teacher — but something was quietly unsettled in me. I picked up a book called The Homeschool Option: How Do I Know If It’s Right for Me? and something shifted. Within the week, we decided to homeschool our family. She was naming things I didn’t know I was already thinking. What I was really looking for was freedom from other people’s goals and expectations for my family. A customized education for each of my kids — one that would let them walk in their own path, aligned with who they actually were. Not a standardized path. Not someone else’s vision of what their lives should look like. Ours. At almost exactly the same time, my husband was wrestling with his own version of that same question — about his life, his work, his sense of ownership and intention. Both of us, in the same week, arriving at the same place from different directions. That convergence felt like something worth listening to. So before we even moved to the interior of BC, I had already decided. I registered our oldest two — the ones who were school age at the time — as homeschoolers. We landed in BC already committed to the registered path, already clear that we weren’t interested in someone else’s curriculum or someone else’s timeline or someone else’s definition of what an educated child looked like. That clarity served us. But it didn’t protect us from the learning curve. My family shifted from structured homeschooling to unschooling to eclectic homeschooling over our first few years. I registered as a homeschooler and never looked back — but what that looked like changed constantly. Two of my daughters eventually entered public high school for grade 10, with no testing required and no difficulty adjusting. Another graduated without a Dogwood and went straight into college. The decision I made at the beginning — registered homeschooling, full stop — stayed constant. But everything inside that decision evolved as my kids grew and as I grew. That’s what I want you to hear: the path you choose today is not your forever answer. It’s your next right step. And if you choose it purposefully — because it fits who your family actually is, not because you stumbled into it or someone scared you into it — you’ll have something solid to stand on when it gets hard. And it will get hard. That’s not a warning. That’s just the truth of any meaningful thing. “The path you choose today is not your forever answer. It’s your next right step.” The Path You Choose Today Is Not Your Forever Answer If anything in that story resonates — the quiet unsettledness, the search for something that fits your family rather than someone else’s template, the desire to lead your own life on your own terms — you’re already thinking the right thoughts. You just might need a conversation to help you hear them clearly. That’s exactly what the BC Homeschool Clarity Session is for. A small group, a Friday afternoon, and a mom-to-mom conversation with someone who gets it. Choosing Between Registered Homeschooling vs Online Learning in BC — Who Are You as a Family? This is the framework I use with every family I coach through this decision — and it matters more than any comparison chart. Are you moving toward something, or away from something? Both are valid starting points. But knowing which one you are helps you stay grounded when it gets hard. Families who are running toward freedom, connection, and a different pace of life tend to settle into homeschooling more naturally. Families who are primarily running away from a bad school situation sometimes find that the relief wears off and the uncertainty rushes in. Neither is fatal — but it’s worth knowing. How comfortable are you being the primary architect of your child’s education? Not forever — just right now. If the answer is “not very,” online learning gives you a scaffold to lean on while you build confidence. If the answer is “I’d love that,” registered homeschooling gives you the room to do it. Does your child need a transcript, credits, or a Dogwood? If your child is heading into high school with university or trades in mind, this plays into this discussion too. Online learning makes that path more straightforward. Registered homeschoolers can absolutely pursue post-secondary — my own kids did — but it requires more intentional planning. A note here: if your child is nowhere near high school, take this particular concern off your plate entirely. You have plenty of time to get to know your kid, plenty of time to help them find their direction, and plenty of time to figure out the transcript question when it’s actually relevant. Don’t let a high school concern drive a decision you’re making for a seven-year-old or even your eleven-year-old. What is the emotional atmosphere in your home? This is the question most families have never been asked. Not “is your home perfect” — none of ours are — but are you willing to look at it honestly and tend to it? Homeschooling magnifies whatever is already present in your family dynamics. The families who thrive are the ones who are willing to pay attention to this. Do you genuinely enjoy spending time with your kids? Even imperfectly. Even on hard days. This isn’t a trick question — it’s the most honest predictor of whether this lifestyle will be sustainable for you. These aren’t abstract questions. They’re the ones that actually shift something when you sit with them honestly. Here’s what one BC homeschool mom said after working through exactly this kind of conversation: The One Thing I Know for Certain About Registered Homeschooling vs Online Learning in BC The families who thrive in homeschooling — regardless of which side of the registered homeschooling vs online learning in BC decision they land on — are the ones doing it purposefully. Not reactively. Not because someone scared them into it or shamed them out of conventional school. But because they looked at the child in front of them, asked honest questions, and made a decision that fit their actual family. That’s what this decision is really about. Ready to Stop Researching and Start Deciding? Here’s what I know after two decades of homeschooling and six years of coaching: every parent has one singular goal — to raise up their particular child for their particular purpose in life. You care the most about your child. You see your child most clearly. And you are the most invested person in the room, and you always will be. You also carry a set of values that are uniquely yours — a sense of what you’re being called toward right now, in this season of your family’s life. Whether registered homeschooling or a specific online school aligns with those values is something only you can determine. Every online school has its own culture, its own intentions, its own feel. Every family does too—the fit matters. Why This Conversation Is Different from Any Facebook Thread I have no skin in the game when it comes to your choice. I’m not here to talk you into a particular path. My only intention is to help you find your own clarity — because you already know your family better than anyone. Sometimes you need the right conversation to hear what you already know. That’s what the session is for. Every two to three weeks, I open a Friday afternoon for a small group of BC families at exactly this crossroads. Six to eight families. One hour. Real conversation with someone who has been doing this in BC for two decades. There are plenty of homeschool parents who could have this chat with you. What’s different is this: for the last six years, I’ve been working as a certified life coach, specifically with homeschool families — coaching and walking alongside women through every family dynamic imaginable inside the four walls of a home. I’ve been supporting women to untangle the overwhelm and find their footing, to stop second-guessing themselves and start leading their families with intention, to navigate the hard relational dynamics that homeschooling surfaces — the conflict, the burnout, the loneliness, the self-doubt — and come out the other side clearer and more confident than when they started. A graduated homeschool parent can tell you what worked for their family. I can help you figure out what will work for yours. You don’t have to spend hours down a rabbit hole of Facebook threads and government websites to get clarity. Not ready for that yet?

Yes. Neither decision is permanent. Families switch between the two paths regularly as their needs change. You can register as a homeschooler at any point in the school year. Do registered homeschoolers in BC get funding? Not typically. Registered homeschoolers under Section 12/13 of the BC School Act do not receive government funding. Online learners may have access to funding depending on the school — verify directly with the school you’re considering as amounts and eligibility change. Does a registered homeschooler in BC need to follow the BC curriculum? No. Registered homeschoolers are not required to follow the BC curriculum, complete mandatory testing, or work toward a Dogwood diploma. You are required to provide an educational program that enables your child to become literate and develop their individual potential contributing to their greater world. Can a registered homeschooler in BC enter public school? Yes — at any time, with no testing or pre-admission requirements. What is the deadline to register as a homeschooler in BC? September 30th if you know ahead of time. However, you can pull your child from school and register at any point throughout the year. Is there a homeschool life coach in BC who works specifically with homeschool families? Yes. Teresa Wiedrick is a certified life coach and homeschool mentor based in the Kootenays, BC. She homeschooled in BC for nearly two decades and has been coaching homeschool families for six years. She works with BC families navigating the registered homeschooling vs online learning decision and supports homeschool moms through their first year and beyond. You can learn more about her here.

A mother's peace is not found in her children's outcomes, but in being anchored in Christ as her source, helper, and identity. When she becomes healthy in spirit, soul, and body and keeps God first, she creates a stable, life-giving atmosphere where her children can thrive without carrying the weight of her purpose.

(Karuna Buddhist Vihara) This dhamma talk, guided meditation, comments, questions and responses was offered on the 9th of May , 2026 for “How do I apply the Dhamma to THIS!?!”

We can fall into two traps when it comes to the body: believing the body is nothing, or believing the body is everything. Both are distortions of the truth. Fr. Mike Schmitz reminds us that we are both body and soul. Your body is part of who you are, and your soul is part of who you are, so caring for both matter. At the same time, St. Pope John Paul II warned against the “cult of the body”, the idea that our value is determined by appearance, fitness, or physical perfection. Your worth is not defined by your body, but caring for your body can be an act of gratitude toward the One who gave it to you. How can you care for your body today?
