Let’s chat with Homeschool High School Podcast host, Vicki Tillman.
Advice for the homeschool mom who also works outside homeschool:
- Don’t worry about all the things.
- Do just the thing at the moment.
- Don’t worry about all the things falling through the cracks.
- Moms feel guilty all the time, but rather focus on all the things they can do.
- A Homeschool Mom Self-Care Myth is this: You don’t have time. Self-Care isn’t a 45-minute Zumba class and a 15-minute meditation. It can be different things for different people.
Advice for the homeschool mom of a graduating kiddo:
- None of the kids know everything about their whole future, but it feels better to know the next step.
- Your job is to help teenagers know the next step to take.
- If they understand their personality, they know what they already love, and they have had enough experiences that they can try on hats, they’ll make a really good decision for the next step.
- We don’t need to worry about the whole future, just the next step.
Gratitude is the habit of noticing when something is going well…
- It improves your immune system.
- It triggers your anterior cingulate in your brain.
- It triggers brain growth in the “calm down” portion of your brain.
