Thank you so much to my Aunt Stephanie for coming on to talk about homeschooling, but also for always being willing to talk about anything! Throughout my WHOLE life, this woman has been such an inspiration and a safe place for me to talk, rant, cry, laugh, anything! I can’t thank her enough for the mentorship and countless hours of counseling. When it comes to homeschooling, specifically, listen in for one of the most well-rounded episodes yet. We talk about EVERYTHING in these TWO episodes! Yes, we talked for so long that I split it into two weeks! So, make sure to listen next week for part 2!

Stephanie’s Verse of the Week: Isaiah 43:2-5, “When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I gave Egypt as a ransom for your freedom; I gave Ethiopia and Seba in your place. Others were given in exchange for you. I traded their lives for yours because you are precious to me. You are honored, and I love you. “Do not be afraid, for I am with you. I will gather you and your children from east and west.”
