Episode 393 – Homeschooling Through Difficult Seasons – A Life Update with Rissa Wilson

This week on The Smiling Homeschooler, Rissa joins Ben for a life update and a really honest conversation about homeschooling through different seasons.

A few months ago, Rissa shared that she was walking through a very difficult time. During that season, homeschooling didn’t look the way it normally does in their home. It felt heavier. Slower. Survival-mode some days.

In this episode, they talk about what it looks like to homeschool when you’re not at your best — when expectations have to shift, when grace has to grow, and when “just getting by” is actually enough.

They also share encouragement for families who may be in a hard season right now, and the reminder that seasons do change. What feels overwhelming today won’t last forever.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re doing enough… if you’ve ever felt behind… or if homeschooling looks different than you thought it would — this episode is for you.
