Hello friends. Welcome to the Brave Rider podcast. I'm Julie Bogart

mom to five adult kids who live all over the planet and I'm a homeschool veteran.

What do I hope you'll get out of these podcasts? Well, besides a chance to fold the

laundry or take that long walk you've been craving. I hope you'll

pause and think a little more intentionally about educating, parenting, and

adulting.

This podcast is dedicated to giving you ideas to consider,

but it's also interested in the questions that you ask.

So if you want to offer a topic for further consideration, reach out to me through social

media.

You can find me on Instagram at Julie Brave Writer or you can tweet me at Brave Writer.

Now let's get started with today's topic offered by one of you.

This topic is near and dear to many of us.

Here's the gist of what this mom, who will remain anonymous, wrote to me.

What if you just don't have the energy to do all the stuff.

You know, that magic making, planning, execution

of all the tasks.

This mom went on to tell me that she knows

what needs to get done, but she can't bring herself to do it.

She's just feeling defeated and restless and ineffective.

Does that resonate with any of you? and ineffective.

Does that resonate with any of you?
