Hi Reader,

This post-holiday stretch can make even confident homeschooling and unschooling parents second-guess everything.
​
But winter isn’t the time to push harder — even though everything around us insists we need to “get back on track.”

That pressure is real.
And we may be a little worn down from December.

​Let Winter Be Winter​

Resist the Urge to Rush into January

In this episode, we talk about:

• why this in-between season feels so unsettling
• how unschooling invites us to slow the timeline
• what to do instead of rushing into a January reset

A quieter way to move through this week

Instead of planning or adjusting, what if this week was just about noticing?

• what your kids are drawn to right now
• where connection feels easy
• what feels nourishing instead of draining

No catching up.
No major overhaul.
No pressure to make January look impressive.
