MY NAME IS CHERYL AND I’M A WIFE AND MOM OF TWO. IN 2021, MY HUSBAND AND I DECIDED TO PULL OUR SON FROM DAYCARE, WHEN NEW YORK STARTED MASKING 3 YEAR OLDS. I JOINED A FEW HOMESCHOOLING PLAYGROUPS SO THAT MY SON WAS GETTING THAT "SOCIALIZATION" THEY ALWAYS TALK ABOUT- BUT, IN THE BACK OF MY MIND, I KEPT THINKING, THIS WILL NEVER BE ME! I'M NOT A HOMESCHOOLER! (I DON’T EVEN KNOW HOW TO SEW MY OWN CLOTHES!!) EVERY HOMESCHOOLER I MET, I BOMBARDED WITH A LIST OF QUESTIONS. "WHAT DOES YOUR DAY-TO-DAY LOOK LIKE? HOW DO YOU PICK CURRICULUM? WHAT ABOUT PROMS AND FOOTBALL GAMES?" SO, I DECIDED TO START PUTTING THESE INFORMATIONAL CHATS INTO A PODCAST, THINKING- “IF I WANT TO KNOW THIS STUFF- SO DO OTHER PARENTS, RIGHT?”

AND OFF I WENT- TO LEARN ABOUT PODCASTING, HOMESCHOOLING, SOCIAL MEDIA.. AND MARKETING- AND WHAT A RIDE IT'S BEEN! I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH THE MOST AMAZING GUESTS ON MY PODCAST AND I HAVE LEARNED SO, SO MUCH! WHAT SETS MY PODCAST APART FROM OTHER HOMESCHOOLING PODCASTS OUT THERE, IS THAT I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT HOMESCHOOLING, SO I ASK THE PEOPLE WHO DO. YOU ARE LEARNING RIGHT ALONG WITH ME. I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO PREACH TO YOU, I DON'T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS. SOMETIMES I YELL AT MY KIDS, SOMETIMES I WONDER IF HOMESCHOOLING IS THE BEST DECISION, BUT WITH EACH BATTLE COMES MORE QUESTIONS FOR ME TO ASK THE SEASONED HOMESCHOOLING FAMILIES THAT I HAVE ON MY SHOW. IF I’M EXPERIENCING THESE HURDLES, CHANCES ARE, I’M NOT ALONE.

I HOPE I AM ABLE TO HELP OTHER HOMESCHOOLING AND "HOMESCHOOLING-HESITANT" PARENTS TAKE THE PLUNGE INTO A WORLD OF FREEDOM, FAMILY BONDING, LEARNING WHAT MATTERS TO THE INDIVIDUAL AND THEIR GOALS- NOT THE GOALS SET BY THE ROCKEFELLERS OR HORACE MANN. I HOPE I CAN HELP PEOPLE BUILD A LIFE TOGETHER THAT FOSTERS A LOVE OF LEARNING FOR BOTH THE CHILDREN AND THE PARENTS.

IF THERE'S ONE THING I KNOW FOR SURE, IT'S THAT NO ONE ON THEIR DEATHBED EVER SAID, "I WISH I SPENT LESS TIME WITH MY KIDS." SO, SPEND IT WITH THEM NOW, WHEN IT MATTERS MOST. YOU CAN MAKE THAT PAPER THAT ISN’T BACKED BY GOLD, SILVER, OR ANYTHING OF VALUE AT ANY TIME IN YOUR LIFE. YOUR CHILDREN HOLD VALUE. INVEST IN THEM.

"I love how she is delving into how education in a public setting is making a lot of people question its methods and that homeschooling can be a viable option for people. It has so much to offer families. I myself was homeschooled growing up and our parents were looked down on, it is so nice to see this podcast showcase how many people have been happy with their choice to homeschool."

"This has been the most useful podcast! Questions you’ve asked are exactly what I had in my head. And the noise of people around us who just don’t get it yet, they don’t bother me as much, as I’m learning through you and your guests about all this! Thank you so much for doing this!."

"Great podcast for parents who want more info on whether homeschooling is a good option for you or not. Crazy to see how different each state operates. Thanks Cheryl for putting in the work for us."

"A perfect podcast for those exploring a homeschool journey. Every episode is packed full of resources! So many families have been forced by the government to homeschool. Get prepared now before the woke corruption comes to your school!"

"So far this is my favorite homeschooling podcast. I’ve listened to a bunch (new homeschooler) and this is by far the most informative! Love listening to real world thoughts, opinions, and hearing answers to the questions I’ve been thinking! Not just making me feel bad for not being all knowing like a lot of the other podcast out there. Thank you for starting this for other newbies, also this is the first review I have ever left on a podcast and I’ve listened to podcast for years. (That’s how much I appreciate it) 💕"

"Very informative and the host has a smooth, educated voice with great insight and questions. She actually sounds just like Megyn Kelly! Very professional."
