      In the final episode of her How to Start Homeschooling series, Christy-Faith tackles the two questions that keep homeschool moms up at night: what a homeschool day actually looks like and whether your kids are “getting enough” socialization.This episode isn’t about perfect schedules or filling every hour. It’s about building a rhythm that works for your family, protecting connection, and letting go of the pressure to recreate school at home. You’ll walk away with simple frameworks, realistic expectations, and a mindset shift that makes homeschooling sustainable instead of exhausting.If you haven't listened to Part 1 of the series yet, go back and start there.
