I needed a planner that would adapt to the unique needs of homeschooling.Įnter the planner that was inspired by my book, Homeschool Bravely and it's scheduling companion, The Quick-Start Guide to Brave Homeschool Schedules: The Brave Homeschool Planner.

I'd rather focus my effort on things that bring me joy and add, not detract, from my day. As a busy, work-at-home, homeschooling mom, I don't have time for that. They require work, rob me of my energy, and breed unnecessary guilt.
