So often, we feel quite competent homeschooling through elementary school, but when we get to high school, the pressure to produce "adults" and the knowledge bank we think we need to give our children before they graduate is daunting.
It doesn't have to be that way, though. High school is not an impossible hurdle for homeschool families, and there are some easy ways to give your children life skills and confidence that will complement their learning. Join Jennifer and Emelie as they talk about preparation for high school, and what went well.

A Great High School Plan With Jennifer Pepito
At the Peaceful Press, we receive so many questions on how to homeschool your child through high school. High school is the last step before how we taught our children and what we taught them is really tested. Increased requirements and laws governing high school can also make it seem like too bit an endeavour to undertake at home or like our children are going to miss out on an essential part of a high school education. With these additional internal and external pressures, it is easy to abandon a living education and dump our teens into the grind of traditional high school test taking.
It doesn't have to be that way though, and test taking does not equal an education. Join Jennifer Pepito and her 27 years of homeschool experience and 6 high school graduates as she walks you through motivation to keep homeschooling and what to plan for in highschool. There is no size fits all, but we hope this episode inspires you to find the size that fits well for your family.

Happy Moms with Hannah Keeley
You may not be able to have vision when you're at rock bottom, but you can be grateful. And Grateful will take you far.
Hannah Keeley the relationship coach, author, and speaker joins Jennifer Pepito for a spectacular episode on mom brain, picking up the pieces of the new brain we have post kids, gratefulness, and understanding life from our child's perspective. Our children remember what we create, and as mom's we are powerful curators of our children's experiences. And sometimes that negative or distressing situation you're in is just a blip that you are more than equipped to get through, and it is those moments that shape you and sanctify you for future adventures.
Their conversation is inspiring, hopeful, and so practical. So dive in and enjoy!
