In this episode, I’m sharing some of the things I want to incorporate into our homeschool this year—from more field trips and science experiments to hands-on activities, learning in different rooms and settings, and finding more homeschool families to connect with.

I’d love to create more opportunities for playdates, themed craft days, homeschool collaborations, and learning outside of our usual routine.

This isn’t about creating the “perfect” homeschool. It’s about finding ways to make learning more fun, flexible, hands-on, and meaningful for our family. ❤️

I did the same thing. I worked hard to earn my real estate license, believing it would finally bring the fulfillment I was looking for. Then I joined a brokerage, thinking the next milestone would be the answer. But I kept discovering that happiness wasn’t waiting on the other side of success.

In this episode, I share why it’s important to dream big, set goals, and keep growing—without making your happiness dependent on achieving them. Because if we don’t learn to enjoy the life we’re living today, we’ll always be chasing the next thing tomorrow.

In this episode, I’m sharing the 7 reasons I still journal after all these years. Journaling has helped me untangle my thoughts, remember answered prayers, dream bigger, slow down, and reflect on how much I’ve grown. It has become so much more than putting words on paper—it’s been a place to process life, strengthen my faith, and keep moving forward.

Whether you’ve journaled for years or have no idea where to start, I hope this episode encourages you to pick up a notebook and begin.

✨ In this episode:
📝 Why journaling helps clear your mind
🙏 How it helps you remember God’s faithfulness
🌱 The importance of reflecting on your growth
💭 Why writing down your dreams matters
❤️ And more…

I’d love to hear from you! Do you journal? If so, what’s one reason you keep coming back to it?

If you’ve been battling anxiety, self-doubt, comparison, or discouragement, I pray this conversation reminds you that you don’t have to believe every thought you think. There is hope, there is truth, and there is freedom when we choose to replace the lies with what God says about us.

Between responsibilities, stress, parenting, work, relationships, and everything happening around us, it’s easy to become overwhelmed. In this episode of Mama Katie Speaks, I’m sharing five simple things you can do when life starts to feel like too much.

We’ll talk about the power of stepping outside, taking a few deep breaths, allowing yourself to cry, dancing out the stress, and writing down your frustrations. These aren’t complicated solutions—they’re simple reminders that can help you pause, reset, and take care of yourself in the middle of a difficult day.

If you’ve been feeling stretched thin or carrying more than you let others see, this episode is for you.

If you’ve been feeling off, unmotivated, or stuck in a funk, you’re not alone. I talk about what this season looked like for me, what didn’t help, and what actually started to shift things—slowly and realistically.

This is a real life conversation about mental health, motherhood, and learning how to get back up without pressure or perfection. If you’re trying to figure out how to feel better again, I hope this reminds you that it’s possible—and it doesn’t have to happen all at once.]]>557career,mentalhealth,motherhood,reallife,selflovefalsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/my-favorite-parts-of-homeschooling-as-a-mom--71305719
From having more flexibility in our schedule, to being able to choose what aligns with our values, to just slowing down and being more present—I’ve really come to love this part of our life.

I also want to say that every family is different, and what works for us might not work for everyone. This is just my personal experience and what I’m enjoying right now.

If you’ve ever thought about homeschooling or are just curious what it looks like in real life, I hope this gives you a little insight into our day-to-day.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/71305719Tue, 14 Apr 2026 02:59:56 +0000Mama Katie SpeaksIn this episode, I’m sharing some of my favorite things about being a homeschool mom and what’s been working really well for our family in this season.

I talk about what it looked like to slow down, sit still, and spend time with my kids while trying to figure out what God is actually calling me to in this season. I realized that God is not the author of confusion, and maybe the pressure I was feeling wasn’t coming from Him at all.

This episode is for anyone who feels like they’re doing everything right but still not seeing the “fruits” yet. You’re not alone—and you don’t have to have it all figured out to keep going.

I’m not speaking from the other side of this. I’m in the middle of it, learning in real time. If you’re in a season like this too, I’m really glad you’re here.

I’m learning what it looks like to balance motherhood and career while also growing into a better version of myself. This isn’t about having it all figured out—it’s about showing up in the middle of it and becoming one day at a time.
