Somewhere around late October, the shine wears off. In this episode Sarah names the fall slump: the disappointed, behind, tempted-to-start-over feeling that shows up once the new school year isn’t new anymore. She explains why it happens and why it doesn’t mean you picked the wrong curriculum or the wrong life.
She also walks through a plan for what to do instead of making a rash decision: a planned break with a purpose, a brain dump, a look at your systems, and a gentler set of expectations. She shares an example from her own homeschool of adjusting a curriculum instead of replacing it. If you’ve been feeling a little flat, this one is worth a full listen. Share it with a friend who needs the reminder that it’s normal.
