The Homeschooling Journey: Tips and Encouragement for Going the Distance

Ready to be encouraged on your homeschooling journey? I'm Sabrina, passionate Christian, wife to Dave, mom of 6, and grandma to 20. Having recently completed 28-years of homeschooling, my goal now is to share encouragement and ideas with other moms, both those new to homeschooling and those already in the thick of it. I hope to help you stay motivated and convinced that homeschooling really is "the best job in the world"! Episodes are short, only about 10 minutes unless I have a guest where we talk a bit longer. So let's jump in. So happy you're here!
