Lighten Up with Hannah Crews – Details, episodes & analysis

Welcome back to The Lighten Up Podcast, friends!

How many homeschool moms do we have out there?!! 🙋🏼‍♀️ In this episode we are going to dive into my experience in the world of homeschooling so far! Let’s be honest, homeschooling sounds pretty scary especially if you have a tendency to lose your patience sometimes, like me 🤪 But luckily we live in a time where we no longer have to sacrifice our time with our kids in order for them to get a quality education. And you don’t have to be an Einstein to do it!

This decision to homeschool my kids was daunting to say the least, but let me tell you… my whole family is happier because of it. We spend more time together, have more flexibility, AND we’re actually paying less in tuition fees than what we would normally pay for private school!

In a world filled with social media comparisons and the pressures of daily life, walking in confidence can feel like an uphill battle. Yet, understanding our identity in Christ and fostering a sense of self-worth can transform our lives and the lives of those around us. Confidence is a crucial aspect of our lives, especially for women navigating today's complex society. In today's episode, we look at the profound connection between confidence and joy, through the lens of scripture, encouragement, and real-life testimonies.

Hey there, friends! Fasten your seatbelts!
