In this episode, I sit down with a passionate homeschool mom who carved her own path, both in how she educated her children and how she's pursuing her dream of publishing a book. Over 15 years after writing her manuscript, she's finally bringing her words to life! We talk about her homeschooling journey with her kids, how her kids all learn differently, and why it's never too late to chase your dreams. If you even put a dream on the shelf, this one's for you!
