This is The Homemaking Foundation's podcast with Jamie Belmay, episode number 79.

Welcome to the Homemaking Foundation's podcast, where we give you the tools, inspiration, and

encouragement you need to craft a gospel-centered home. And now your host from youngwifesguide.com,

Jamie Belmay. Hey ladies, welcome.

I have got a super special episode for a couple reasons.

First of all, today I am interviewing Mackenzie Monroe from bold turquoise.com and

cultivating the lovely podcast.

I love McKenzie.

I adore her.

I love her podcast. And many of you will recognize

her because she was in our 2016 Homemaking Ministries online conference. She was one of our speakers

and she talked about cultivating the lovely in the everyday. And that was one of our most

popular podcasts, most popular sessions during that conference.

So we have got her chatting here today. I just love her. Her and I get along so well,

and we just had a blast chatting today. And the other reason why this is a special episode is

because we are going to be talking about homeschooling today. So I get requested all the time

to talk about homeschooling, what curriculum to use, how to balance it within your day, and we're not

homeschooling yet. My oldest kids are four years old. And so I am where you guys are. I'm getting prepared. I'm figuring out what curriculum to use.

I'm figuring out how to fit it in my day. So I have absolutely no expertise to share with you on how to

homeschool. So, but I get questions every single week about it. So I thought it'd be really fun if we

brought McKenzie on to talk about homeschooling and how to get prepared for next year.

So if you're thinking about homeschooling or if you are, if you're in the trenches of homeschooling, then this episode is going to be a good one for you.
