Are you running on empty? Hope for tired homeschool moms | 135

Hey, homeschool mom,
Are you worn out?  Maybe exhausted from advocating for your child, navigating school transitions, or carrying the weight of homeschooling every day?
If your homeschool journey started after leaving public or private school — especially if you’ve walked through IEPs, 504 plans, therapies, or special needs — this episode is for you.
In today’s Homeschool Well Podcast, we speak directly to tired homeschool moms who feel burned out, overwhelmed, or alone. We talk honestly about homeschool burnout, the emotional toll of advocating for your child, and what it really feels like to step into homeschooling while already running on empty.
Using Isaiah 40:31 as our foundation, we remind you that God sees you, walks with you, and renews your strength — even in this hard season.
You don’t have to have your entire homeschool journey figured out, and you definitely don’t have to do this alone! 
In this episode, you’ll hear:
✨ Why homeschool burnout is real — especially after leaving traditional school✨ A reminder that God meets you in this season and walks with you step by step✨ Three simple ways to care for yourself while homeschooling
 
Homeschooling doesn’t have to be lonely. You don’t have to carry all the caps on your head by yourself.
 
TEACH WELL. LEARN WELL. BE WELL.
 
Blessings!
Kim and Jenny❤️❤️

Homeschooling special needs kids: Protecting PEACE during the holidays | 131

Ho, ho, ho, Homeschool mom!
December can be both joyful and overwhelming—especially when holiday gatherings pile up and your kids hit their social limit.
In this episode of The Homeschool Well Podcast, we talk honestly about holiday socializing and how to figure out how much is enough for your family—particularly if you’re homeschooling special needs learners or managing sensory sensitivities alongside your homeschool curriculum. Holiday events, family gatherings, and schedule changes can quickly lead to burnout—for both kids and moms!
In this conversation, we share practical strategies to help homeschool families navigate holiday socializing while protecting emotional regulation, connection, and peace.
You’ll learn:
-How holiday expectations impact children when homeschooling special needs
-Simple ways to adapt your homeschool curriculum during busy seasons
-Three essential tools for calmer holidays
-How doing less can actually improve learning, behavior, and relationships
-Why rest and balance matter just as much as academics during the holidays
This episode is especially encouraging for homeschool moms who feel pressured to “do it all” in December. You’ll be reminded that stepping back, simplifying expectations, and choosing PEACE supports long-term homeschool learning and emotional health.
We pray this helps you!
Christmas blessings,
Kim and Jenny

How to homeschool your struggling learner in "Distracting December" | 129

Hi Homeschool mom!
It's the holidays! Get excited!
This week we share why "Distracting December" is one of the best times to press pause — especially if you’re homeschooling special needs kids who struggle with reading, math, or focus.  A slower December can actually help them learn better. Children's brains need downtime to process, consolidate, and reset, and this time of year gives you a natural window to let that happen.
You’ll hear simple, realistic homeschool holiday ideas that count as meaningful learning during Christmas time: baking, card-writing, music, creating gifts, storytelling, and more. These “life school” moments support struggling learners without adding pressure during an already full month.  Enjoy this time!
 
Holiday Blessings,
Kim and Jenny❤️💚
