I am still dancing around my house over this interview with the one and only Julie Bogart.  In this episode of "The Home school Conversation Podcast," I will interview the famous  veteran home school mom and guru, Julie Bogart who created The Home school Alliance which is now the Brave Learner Home which is a home school support system with book clubs, discussion boards, and curriculum help. She also has continued to improve her writing curriculum, "Brave Writer"  to help families develop their best language arts approach in their home school.  Julie is also the author of the home school book loved by ALL, "The Brave Learner" and "A Gracious Space".  Julie also has an amazingly insightful podcast that has been a source of encouragement to many homeschooling families called, "A Brave Writers Life in Brief" and I am not hired by her to say that I highly recommend all of the above! It has changed my homeschooling LIFE. In this episode, we will explore her new support system for the home school community, and also explore curriculum decision paralysis, how to value a lifestyle of learning and dive into examples of how we have learned to truly enjoy learning with our children. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ashley-davis42/support
