Are you needing a reminder of the benefits of homeschooling as you dive into the new school year?

That's the topic of today's episode on the Duranda Wilson podcast. Welcome everyone. I'm

Duranda, Wife to 1, mom to eight, Nana to 10,

and 28-year veteran homeschooling mom. I'm also the author of three books, The Unhurried Homestooler,

A Simple Mercifully Short Book on Homestchooling, The Four Hour School Day, How You and Your Kids

Can Thrive in the Homestchoolchool life and unhurried grace for

mom's heart, 31 days in God's Word. I hope you'll check those books out if you haven't already.

Just go to Dorinda Wilson.com. You can also find them on Amazon and you can find the four-hour

school day at any of your favorite booksellers in addition to the two places that I just

mentioned. I would love it if you would take a minute to write a review or give a quick

rating from the podcast platform that you're listening from. That will help more moms be able

to see the podcast and hopefully be encouraged. Also, now is the time to reach out to

conferences and women's events if you would like me to come and speak. The conference season is

typically, the homeschool conference season is typically from March to about July. And all the conferences are typically this time of year

choosing their speakers for next year or they've already chosen them. So if you have a favorite

conference that you like to attend and you'd like me to be there, please reach out to them and

let them know. Also, my favorite math resource, CTC Math.

I want to leave with you a little testimonial from one of our listeners who happened to give CTC Math a try.

She said, I took a leap of faith and tried CTC Math for the kids.

I heard you talk about it on your super helpful and wonderful podcast. Thank you for that.

Our lives are so much better with this incredible program. My kids begged to do their math lessons first,

and it has freed me up to work with the other kids more intentionally because I'm not struggling
