As we unpack her question, we discover that the real issue isn't preschool—it's fear. Fear of making the wrong decision. Fear of difficult seasons. Fear of what might happen in the future. In this episode, I share why fear is terrible at making decisions, how to stop borrowing trouble from the future, and why you don't need to have your entire homeschooling journey figured out today. If you've ever wondered whether you're capable of homeschooling, felt pressure from family members, or struggled to trust yourself as a parent, this episode is for you. Remember: the mother who has a why to homeschool can bear almost any how.
