What does it look like to homeschool faithfully through changing family seasons, chronic illness, and the everyday realities of motherhood? In this encouraging homeschool conversation I spoke with Beth Howard about Charlotte Mason homeschooling, mother’s education, lifelong learning, and finding joy in the daily work of home education. Beth Howard is a writer and educator whose work focuses on helping mothers continue their own intellectual and spiritual growth while homeschooling their children. In this conversation, Beth shares how her family began homeschooling, how her approach has changed over time, and why Charlotte Mason principles have become such an important framework in her home. If you are a homeschool mom feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or stuck, this episode offers practical homeschool encouragement and realistic wisdom. Beth talks honestly about navigating homeschooling while managing chronic pain and autoimmune illness. She explains why hard homeschool days are often connected to stress, health, or outside pressures rather than curriculum problems, and why faithfulness matters more than perfection. You’ll also hear a thoughtful discussion about mother’s education and why learning is not only for children. Beth shares how she created her own rich educational life during a painful health season through books, notebooks, nature study, and intentional learning. She explains how mothers can pursue truth, beauty, and goodness in small ways, even with little children at home. If you love topics like Charlotte Mason homeschool methods, classical homeschooling, mother culture, homeschool habits, nature study, homeschooling with littles, and Christian homeschool encouragement, this episode is for you.
