This is a podcast to encourage mamas who feel they can't dream in the midst of the chaos. Maybe you don't have a sitter or ever have alone time (like many of us!). Personally I walked through a season of quitting my business, book writing, and podcasting after we began homeschooling because it looked different than before. I didn't see it possible to do BOTH. It took me almost two years to stop making excuses and find ways to make dreaming work again. I know YOU are incredibly busy and juggling so many hats, but I hope see how possible doing BOTH can actually be.
This week on the @theaccidentalhomeschoolmama podcast 🎧 I had the pleasure of sitting down with Eryn Lynum of @erynlynumauthor to hear all about her new book about the Nature of REST.
🌼 Boy was this episode a breath of fresh air to hear how God intended REST to be a vital part of our lives.
🌼 Eryn shares so many gems, ending with something that brought me chills, Psalm 23, the Lord is my Shepherd. I share with her how this verse has such personal meaning to my family over the last year
🌼 Lastly, Eryn invites YOU to join her Launch Team for FREE to help her get this message of REST to your communities while she launches her book!! COMMENT 🌻🌻 below if you’d like the link to sign up to join the team and get your free book!!

Dream Again with Cheryl of The Homeschool How to Podcast
This week on the @theaccidentalhomeschoolmama podcast 🎧 I had the pleasure of sitting down with Cheryl of @thehomeschoolhowtopodcast! (https://www.instagram.com/thehomeschoolhowtopodcast/)
🌼 As a new homeschooling family three years ago, I read a few books and chatted with a mom at dance while I second guessed everything through trial and error that first year. Why didn’t I think to find a podcast to listen to? INSERT CHERYL. Cheryl didn’t just read a few books, she decided to start a podcast to interview other homeschooling mamas and glean wisdom from each. BRILLIANT.
🌼 We begin this episode pretty raw. Discussing why we connected—our former lives being pro vax mamas, until tragedy.
🌼 We realize while recording that we live in the same state and just 90 minutes from one another 😂 Upstate NY meetup anyone?
This episode is packed with goodness, Cheryl will give you a great kick and boost your confidence in the homeschool department. You’re not going to want to miss it, especially if you want to hear from a mama who is dreaming again. Tune in where all podcasts are played!
Meet Cheryl:
Hi, I’m Cheryl—your fellow conspiracy-loving mama who firmly believes the government has no place in raising my kids.
Here’s the kicker: I had zero experience with homeschooling when I realized I wanted to keep my kids out of the school system. I thought homeschoolers were weird and spent their days sewing and whittling. Could I blend our world with homeschooling? Would my kids resent me for missing out on traditional experiences like the prom and football games?
I didn’t know, so I set out on a mission to learn from the experts.
I began my podcast interviewing homeschooling families so I could explore all the ways people are homeschooling, breaking free from the confines of cubicles and classrooms to embrace a life of freedom and curiosity. This journey has been life changing and led me to leave my 16-year government career to fully embrace the homeschooling lifestyle.. and I want to help you do the same!
