“HELP! I didn’t plan to homeschool!” 😩

With schools closed through the end of the year, many of you are scrambling to figure out homeschooling, an educational journey you didn’t choose but still have to navigate.

First, please hear me say this: You are doing a great job. Whatever schooling looks like for your family right now, we are cheering you on. We hope our content brings encouragement and inspiration, not pressure or shame. Virtual schooling during a pandemic is completely unprecedented, and everyone is figuring this out together.

Now, one of the biggest hurdles we’re seeing families navigate is learning how to keep kids in “study mode” when their worlds have turned upside down overnight. 

Figuring out a new routine and structure is a challenge for any family, but if your child struggles with ADHD, an inability to focus, or executive functioning weaknesses, you may really feel like you’re in an uphill battle.

I want to help, so I’m putting on two free webinars in the next few weeks—one for parents and, after many requests, one for students!

I believe these webinars will help you create some (realistic!) structure for a more peaceful and productive environment in your home. Learn more about them below and register to join me.
