What is The Intentional Homeschooler?

Are you a Christian homeschooling mom navigating the challenges of providing your children a great education while ensuring you’re creating fantastic childhood memories? Do you sometimes wonder if you’re cut out for the job or how you’ll manage homeschooling, homemaking, and a healthy life? This podcast is your lifeline to sanity as you juggle all of your responsibilities.

Host, Erika Sagert, has been there! Now she spends her time supporting homeschooling parents so they can give their kids the best education with a Christian worldview. She’s a wife, teacher, and veteran homeschool mom of four. Each episode she’ll guide you in homeschooling, homemaking, and achieving a healthier life balance. Topics include things like lesson planning, homemaking tips, family well-being, and kid’s social calendars. You’ll get answers to common questions like “Am I doing enough,” and “How do I manage it all?”

We share a fresh episode every other Thursday so make sure you subscribe. We want to be your home base for homeschooling because we want you to know that you’ve got this, moms!
