Homeschool And Work From Home Is Hard—But Not Impossible
Mom, homeschool and work from home is hard, but it is not impossible. You can do it, and I am going to tell you how in this week's coffee chat.
This is the momtrepreneur life coffee chat. We pull the curtain back on life as a momtrepreneur and homeschool mom. This is the let's have an honest conversation about homeschool and work from home. Too many times what's out there is just the highlight reel—all the good things—and we never get into the nitty gritty of the hard stuff.
Of if they do get into the nitty gritty, it is so hard I wonder why I would even want to homeschool and work from home. I saw one post describing it as walking a tightrope, while juggling swords that were on fire. My first thought was, it is not that hard. The swords are not always on fire.

The Reality of Starting a Home Business
Wouldn't it be nice if you launched a project and overnight it took off? I'm sure you've heard those stories and hope lightning will strike you. I read this recently and decided it was worth including in this post: Few things labeled an overnight success actually are.
You are free to let out a frustrated sigh and maybe even a tear or two. Let's be honest, you want your business to be an overnight success. You've put so much time, effort, and energy into. It needs to be successful so you can validate your efforts.
Time spent on your business means that your time wasn't spent in other places. You may be doing all the heavy lifting, but your family has also made sacrifices so you can start a home business. Everyone around you is effected by your brilliant home business idea. So there is a lot at stake. More than just your time and effort.

5 Tips for Taking Maternity Leave as a Mompreneur
Maternity leave as a mompreneur looks a lot different from working in an office.
Being a mompreneur means juggling the responsibilities of running a business and raising a family. Taking maternity leave as a mompreneur can be especially challenging. But you need to recover. Remember, you have a dinner plate size wound inside of you. If everyone saw the same wound on your leg, they would demand that you rest. Since the wound is hidden, we forget that it still needs to heal.

Myth Busting Homeschool Myths
Homeschool moms are just so patient. They are always happy. And everyone who homeschools lives on a homestead and plays in the dirt. Have you heard these homeschool myths?
For this momtrepreneur life coffee chat we are my busting some common homeschool myths. Grab your coffee and let's talk about a few homeschooling myths.
Persistent Homeschool Myths
There are more persistent myths than others. You know they ones that are urban legend now. That are continuously being repeated although they've been totally debunked….again and again and again.
1. Homeschool moms are extremely patient
No, we actually aren't. We just don't have the patience to carpool, and then do homework after they were already in school for 7 hours. It doesn't take7 hours to learn. Break down the time that is spent on everything else. They aren't learning for 7 hours.
2. We are always happy
This is hard, it isn't always easy. No, I am not always a happy mom, but there is more fulfillment in what I do as a mom and homeschool mom. This homeschool myth that we are always happy, or on the opposite end, that we are just trudging through the day is not true.
There is more fulfillment and joy in being with my kids and knowing my kids than in any job I've ever had or ever will have.
3. We all live on homesteads and play in the dirt
Yes, some do but not everyone. There thing about homeschool is we have a lot of freedom to choose the lifestyle we want for our family.
4. We all wear khakis and polos tucked in or dresses
This is a big no. There is a very small, tiny group that may fit this description. But this is not the majority of homeschoolers. The majority of homeschoolers actually wear our day pajamas. We have night pjs and day pjs.
5. You can't homeschool high school
This is a homeschool myth that needs busting. I am a homeschool high school graduate, and I am going to graduate my son this year. You can homeschool high school. You don't need an accredited school either. You homeschool high school student can do dual enrollment, and you can create his high school transcript.
There are few more myths, so listen or watch the coffee chat for the complete list. What myths do you often debunk?

How Do You Handle All Your Mom Roles?
I need to homeschool and work. There is a client needing attention. The house must be immaculate. I have all of these things that I need to do. How do you handle all your mom roles?
Let's talk about juggling all of our mom roles. You have a lot on your plate and a to do. You don't have the luxury of blocking out chunks of time to focus on what you need to get done. Maybe if you used daycare, it would give you a chance to have blocks of time. But if you are truly a work from home and homeschool mom, then your kids are with you while you are working. #lifeunboxedblog #momtrepreneur #momlife

Homeschool Dual Enrollment: Your Ultimate Guide
I had it all planned out. I knew exactly how we would do homeschool dual enrollment. It was working great. Until the school changed the program, communicated very poorly on the changes, and I was back down the rabbit hole looking for schools.
College dual enrollment is exactly what it sounds like. Your high school student is taking college classes while in high school. Pretty simple.
This is a great way to get your student started on college while still in high school. When my oldest son graduates next year, he will have about 40 college credits. He will need one more year to complete his associate's degree.

How Hands On Are You with Your Homeschool Teaching
How hands on are with your homeschool teaching? And how hands on do you need to be? I am a second-generation homeschooler, and I homeschool my 6 kids. I am going to give you all the answers to these questions.
This is a momtreprneur coffee. Basically, I pick a topic that has been roaming through my mind, and we chat about it. Throw your hair up in a messy bun and let's talk.
From Public School to Homeschool Teaching
If you transitioned from the public school to homeschool. Then you have a mental picture in your head of what homeschooling looks like. And it probably looks a lot like a classroom. You have white board and all the fun stuff.
What if I told you that you don't need any of that. You don't even need to teach in your homeschool. I know shocking. Now, this does depend on the grade. Your kindergarten might get a little frustrated if he had to teach himself to read, and a bit confusing. #lifeunboxedblog #homeschooling #homeschoollife

The Number One Struggle for Moms that Work From Home: Finding Time for Yourself
Finding time for yourself is the number one struggle for moms that work from home.
It is not that you don’t enjoy your kids or you don’t want to be around them. Sometimes you just need a break. So no mom guilt allowed here. We are moms that work from home. We can admit that sometimes we just need a moment for ourselves. Especially if you are an introvert. Your batteries will only recharge with alone time. But even extroverts benefit from alone time.
No, this is not a show about massages and pedicures. Yes, these are great in their place. As a routine, this is out of reach for most moms that work from home. This show is all about practical help for mom.

How to Motivate Teens for the Future
Has the panic hit you yet? Are you trying to motivate teens for the future. We are going to get into all that in this momtrepreneur life coffee because it is an important topic.
Throw your hair up in a messy bun and let's chat about life as a homeschool mom and momtrepreneur. This is the time we get into life behind the scenes.
I recently did a Q & A. It was about high school transcripts, but in the group someone asked how do motivate teens for the future. I felt like this question needed more time and space, then I could give for that time frame. So I decided to answer in a coffee chat.
I am running the gambit of every age group—from toddler to teen. It is a constant reminder of how quickly kids grow up.

Boost Your Homeschool High School Transcript with Online Classes
As a mom working from home and homeschooling my kids are all unique. A one-size fits all approach has never worked. I homeschool so I can tailor curriculum and learning for each child. Sometimes that means I outsource teaching, so my kids can have a better learning experience, or they can follow their interests.
Use online classes
1. For interest subjects
One of the strengths of homeschooling is we don't have to lock into just one curriculum or topic. We get the opportunity to explore any idea that sparks our interest…I'm mean our kids interests. Let's face it. The things that make them curious may not interest us. And that's ok.
Self-paced classes are a great way to feed your child's curiosity without you needing to be the center of it. Mr. D Math has a wide variety of classes from American Sign Language to dance, and a lot in between.
2. For extra help
It is ok to admit that you can't remember anything from high school algebra or chemistry. Now if you need to understand the complex context of events in history, I am your woman. But math and science, the kids will need to Google it.
Check out Mr. D Math ASL I now! https://mrdmath.edu20.org/visitor_class_catalog?affiliate=11086648
If there is a subject that you are at a total loss to help with. Or you just don't want to relearn it. Then add online classes to your homeschool curriculum Take the stress out of your homeschool with self-paced classes from Mr. D Math.
3. For learning something new
The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know. We don't know what our kids will be interested in if we don't try it. Online classes are a great way to feed your child's curiosity and introduce them to subjects they never even thought about.
We can't know everything…but don't tell the kids that. But we can show them how to learn something new. Being a life-long, independent learner is knowing how to find the right information as well as knowing all the facts.
My daughter has never expressed an interest in learning American Sign Language. It wasn't something at the top of our to do list. But once she started the ASL I class from Mr. D Math. She was completely hooked.
"The teacher is great. She teaches signs that you will actually use in a conversation. The projects are easy to complete."
After starting the class, she decided this would be her foreign language credit for high school. This gives your homeschool high school transcript a boost, and it takes the stress out of adding one more high school student to the mix.
You get all the benefits of an online self-paced class with the added bonus of monthly help sessions. There are also optional live meetings, so students can interact with the teacher and other students. You get the benefits of self-paced and live classes all in one course. The live sessions are a great way to practice ASL with other students.
Conclusion: Online Classes for High School
Boost your child's high school transcript with online classes. Spark their curiosity and introduce them to something new for a better homeschool experience.
