If you’re a Christian homeschooling mom who feels overwhelmed, scattered, or stretched too thin, this episode will help you simplify.

This is Part 1 of my conversation with Jamie — a homeschool mom of four and the creator behind the blog https://gingerhomemaking.com/. We discuss how to homeschool multiple children of different ages without burnout by narrowing your focus and anchoring your day with reading aloud as a family.

Jamie shares how she balances homeschooling and business, why prioritizing focused time matters more than putting in long hours, and how reading aloud has become the foundation of her homeschooling rhythm.

In this episode, we cover:

• The tension many Christian moms feel between staying home and wanting to work
• Why focused time beats doing everything all day
• How reading aloud simplifies homeschool across multiple ages
• What makes a “good” book (without overthinking it)
• How to start a reading habit—even if you only have five minutes a day

This episode is perfect for homeschooling and work-from-home moms who want peace, structure, and sustainable rhythms.

If this episode encouraged you, share it with another homeschooling mama. ♥️
