Taking a Christmas Break When You Feel Behind!
Happy, Holy Mama - A podcast by Emily Brown - Mondays
Categories:
Because I have met SO many women on Consult Calls who tell me on that they worked right up to Christmas and then went back to school immediately after the New Year, I feel that what happened in our kitchen this week was worth sharing in hopes of helping you prevent that for yourself this year, if it's not what you truly want to be doing. In today's podcast episode I'm going to share a conversation I had with my husband about the discomfort he was feeling about where we are at in our homeschool here in December. I'm also going to share what followed: a simple process WITH our high schoolers, to find out exactly where we ARE and where we are NOT. Which led us to make clear, confident decisions about how to finish this semester intentionally despite a LOT of life things that happened! I'm going to walk you through the simple evaluation we use in our own home to gather this data for your family. And I'll leave you with some gentle reminders to help you give yourself permission to stop. To slow down. To enjoy each other. Build trust with yourself and with them that you'll allow yourselves to rest and connect, without making everyone pay for it by "buckling down" when you start back up, or "do some school during the summer." Grab your earbuds and let's get real today, friends. Get all the details for the Happy, Holy Mama Membership HERE Join the waitlist for Happy, Holy Mama HERE!
