Interview w/ Julie Ross

"Learning is happening all the time. When can be learning when we're out in the community, in nature, or working a business."

In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Julie, of A Gentle Feast, about managing a business while homeschooling your kids.

We chat about

  • early mistakes in her business
  • what a day in her life actually looks like
  • how she manages work and homeschool
  • some things to consider if you’re considering the homeschool route

I really enjoyed this conversation and I hope you will too.

She has also been homeschooling her own five children for the past 20 years. Julie Ross developed the Charlotte Mason curriculum, A Gentle Feast, to provide parents with the tools and resources needed to provide a rich and abundant educational feast full of books, beauty, and Biblical truth.
