197 - Let Winter Be Winter: Resist Rushing into January
Episode 197
Monday, 29 December, 2025
Text Sue what you think!This post-holiday stretch can make even confident homeschooling and unschooling parents second-guess everything. But winter isn’t the time to push harder — even though everything around us insists we need to ‘get back on track.So what if we took a different approach?If the last semester felt less than stellar, it may not need a complete overhaul. It often just means real life showed up — and winter is asking for something different. This episode invites you to slow down, reflect clearly, and notice what’s actually true beneath the fear, guilt, and January noise.We talk about:why winter has never been a season of pushinghow stress and fear can distort how we remember “how things went”why reflection gives us better information than rushing to fixhow learning often looks quieter in winter — and why that still countsThis is not about planning or starting over. It’s about letting winter be winter — and giving yourself permission to pause.Read TranscriptIf you’d like a little more support right now, here are a few gentle options:• New Year’s Bundle (Guides + Kids’ Video Interviews) 👉 https://www.unschoolingmom2mom.com/product/New-Years-Bundle• Discounted Private Coaching Calls (January too) 👉 http://www.suepatterson.as.me/december• Seasonal Unschooling Guide: Winter 👉 https://www.unschoolingmom2mom.com/product/Seasonal-Unschooling-Guide-WinterAnd this Friday, January 2nd, I’ll be live on YouTube talking openly about the different kinds of support that exist for unschooling families — free and paid, mine and others’.
