Do you need to be an expert? Think about how many times this idea has been told to you. Have you heard of the 10,000 hour rule or the idea of deliberate practice? Both of these ideas, among others, push the idea of expertise. But do you really need to be an expert at one thing or specialize in a specific field, or know your niche? This blog is about exploring outside of the box. Looking at different ways to do things outside of the typically accepted advice. So far we've challenged the idea of what it means to chase your dreams. We've looked hard at whether you need a niche. And now we are going to challenge the idea that you need to specialize. Sometimes you hear an idea so often that you accept it as fact without fully vetting whether it is the best idea for you. Specializing is one of those ideas.

Homeschooling moms are divided on this issue. We want to homeschool for the freedom to not be tied to our desks. Yet, homeschooling online opens the door for so many opportunities. What's a mom to do?

There are pros and cons to homeschooling online. There isn't a one-size fits all approach to it. You know your kids, their personalities, and what works and what doesn't.

Do you dread the thought of teaching art for homeschool? Are you feeling like you aren’t creative enough or you don’t have the skill? You can add art to your homeschool, even if you aren’t an artist.

We are homeschool moms, so we are supposed to be amazing at teaching our kids and giving them experiences. All while working from home. You’re a super mom.

Let’s face it. There are certain subjects that we just hate to teach. Chemistry and algebra get me every time. We know we want to give our kids the best, well-rounded education, but our own lack makes it feel impossible.

Art doesn't need to be one of those subjects you avoid. You can easily add art to your homeschool without being an artist.
