Summary

I talk about simplifying and slowing down a lot, but I’ve realized that some might envision something different than what I mean when I talk about being unhurried. The unhurried approach started with our kids’ education but morphed into being a default that we fell back on frequently to help us stay intentional. It hasn’t been a goal as much as it has been a helpful tool. Listen in for some clarification on what I really mean when I encourage moms to be unhurried. The Unhurried Homeschooler Unhurried Grace for a Mom’s Heart The Four Hour School Day Homeschooling Today (P.S. Don't forget to check out my latest book, The Four Hour School Day: How You and Your Kids Can Thrive in the Homeschool Life on Amazon, durendawilson.com, or your favorite bookseller!)

0:00.0	Hey everyone. Welcome to this episode of the Dorenda Wilson podcast. I'm Dorenda Wilson, wife to one,
0:15.7	Mom to Eight, Nana to Nine, and 26-year veteran homeschooling mom. I'm also the author of the Unhurried
0:21.4	homeschooler, a simple, mercifully short book on homeschooling, as well as the four-hour
0:26.9	school day, how you and your kids can thrive in the homeschool life. Check those books out on
0:32.6	Amazon.com or at Duranda Wilson.com. And actually, you can find the four-hour school day at any of your

1:05.8	Life is messy.
1:07.4	Kids can be exhausting.
1:09.3	School doesn't always go as planned. Sometimes we all need some real
1:13.7	encouragement, some real, truly practical help. That's one of the reasons I write for
1:19.1	homeschooling Today magazine. The entire team at homeschooling today wants you to know that messy,
1:24.5	exhausting, imperfect homeschooling is an incredibly beautiful thing
1:28.5	because it's real life as we take an unhurried, bold approach to homeschooling our kids,
1:35.1	an approach that says, I won't compare my homeschool to others. I'll teach the kids God has given me
1:41.2	in the way that he leads me to do it. I want to encourage you to check out
1:45.5	homeschooling Today magazine. It is an amazing resource for the unhurried homeschooling mom.
1:55.8	So today's topic is what does it really mean to be unhurried?
2:01.6	You know, I wrote The Unhurried Homeschooler about six or seven years ago, and honestly, I have

2:14.3	I never, never expected it.
