Leigh Nguyen is a homeschooling mom of 3, including 2 homeschool graduates, and founder of Little By Little Homeschool. Leigh is passionate about encouraging families to create and embrace the homeschool lifestyle that is best for them.
In this episode, Leigh shares some of the lessons she’s learned along the way and how she worked through challenges like coping with a lack of alone time, figuring out how to make homeschooling work on a single income, and maintaining a focus on discipleship and reaching the hearts of her children in the face of challenging behavior. You will leave this conversation reminded that God is faithful in the midst of our imperfect days and that even when it doesn’t look exactly like we had planned, homeschooling actually does work.
