Show Notes
If you’ve ever looked at another homeschool mom online and thought, “She must have it all together,” this episode will feel like a deep breath.
Christy-Faith opens up about the real parts of her life: the mess, the fear, the mistakes, the burnout and why she can’t keep showing up as a two-dimensional version of herself. This is the start of her Behind the Screen series, where she shares what’s true, not just what fits in a 30-second clip. This is Part 1 of a 6 part series.
