This episode is for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the idea of a homeschooling your kids (whether you’re already homeschooling or just thinking about it!) My friend Jenn Bryant joins me, as we share the very good news: It doesn’t have to be that hard! You really can simplify your approach, and Jenn is sharing 7 ways to do that.
It’s easy to overcomplicate things, and I love Jenn’s reminder to slow down, focus on the things that really matter, and ultimately — enjoy the ride! Jenn and I have a really fun chat, and I hope you can grab a cup of coffee and feel like you’re hanging out with us!

Monica and her husband Dave raise boys and tropical fruit on the North Shore of Oahu. Monica has homeschooled their four sons (two who are currently in Southern California, one in college, one a recent college grad!) Monica is the author of Raising Amazing: Bringing up Kids Who Love God, Like their Family, and Do the Dishes without Being Asked (released this week!) as well as Boy Mom: What Your Son Needs Most from You, and host of the Monica Swanson Podcast.

The Swanson boys are all surfers, (Luke, who is 19, surfs professionally) which keeps Monica on her knees. Monica loves good coffee, running trails with her husband and dog, Thor, the Word of God, and connecting with women all over the world through the crazy gift of the internet.
