Teacher friend, is your passion for teaching slowly burning out? Is our broken educational system frustrating you to the point of quitting this career, but you just can’t stand the thought of letting your ”teaching gifts” go to the wayside? Do you envision teaching children with more energy, aliveness, and creativity, but you are ”stuck” conforming to the standardized tests, mandates, and overwhelming policies that just aren’t working? Are you dreaming of freedom, flexibility, and an income that continues to grow exponentially? Have you ever said, ”I should just start my own school”? Wouldn’t it be lovely to teach without unrealistic expectations, endless data collection, meetings, and restrictions? What if you could create your own schedule, curriculum, and class size? Would you sense freedom and fulfillment if you could take learning outside, on field trips, and beyond the state standards? Do you long to use your teaching gift for God’s glory, while creating engaging lesson plans, experiences, and positive relationships with students?

If your child is longing for socialization, interaction, and engaging experiences, a profitable homeschooling business would not only provide financial peace and freedom to your family but provide your child with a wonderful learning opportunity! Learning pods, resource centers, and micro-schools are coming your way! Teacher friend, If you’ve ever thought, ” I wish I could stay home and give my children all the attention I give to so many others!”? ”If only I could make money while staying home, teaching, and taking care of my children.... !” OR maybe you are thinking of teaching YOUR OWN WAY, having your OWN BUSINESS, and creating as much profit as you desire while ALSO using your teaching gifts! Let’s get down to business! What if you could have a business right in your backyard-around the corner, or up the street...where children run free, learn authentically, and collaborate with peers like never before?

Welcome to our special series, Microschool Moments. I am so excited to share this journey with you as we approach our 300th episode, showcasing the transformation of our microschool from our living room to where we are today.
In this special episode, I'm taking you on a journey through the very first year of our microschool, starting with the dream and vision that sparked it all. ✨
Before we even opened our doors, there was a vision—a dream of creating a learning environment that truly puts students first, fosters creativity, and builds a strong community. But like any dream, it wasn’t all smooth sailing. That first year was filled with challenges, surprises, and so many lessons learned.
In this episode, we’ll walk through the ups and downs of that initial year, from the excitement of welcoming our first students to the unexpected hurdles we had to overcome. And as we reflect on that journey, we’ll also look at where we are today—how beginning with the end in mind has shaped the thriving microschool we now have. 🏫💡
Whether you're just starting out or are in the thick of your own microschool adventure, this episode is packed with insights, inspiration, and real-life stories that I hope will resonate with you. 🌱
Tune in to hear how a dream became reality, how we navigated the challenges, and how that initial vision continues to guide us today. Let’s walk this journey together! 🚀
