In the latest episode of the Homeschool Curious Podcast, Morgan Bergstrom sits down with author Becca Wierwille, the creative mind behind Beloved Chronicles LLC. With a background in education and a passion for storytelling, Becca is on a mission to provide children with engaging, clean, and heartwarming literature.

Understanding the Author’s Journey

Becca shares her transition from being a kindergarten teacher to becoming a full-time author and stay-at-home mom. She wakes up early to write and utilizes her daughter’s nap times to focus on her publishing business. With a supportive family nearby, she manages to balance her roles effectively, proving that passion can thrive within the chaos of motherhood.

The Homeschooling Curiosity

Discussing her plans for her daughter’s education, Becca admits to being “homeschool curious.” She has gained insights into the homeschooling community through her publishing experiences and appreciates the flexibility and personalized education it offers. She reflects on her own childhood, where she had friends who were homeschooled, but acknowledges that her exposure was limited at the time.

A Need for Quality Children’s Literature

While teaching, Becca noticed a gap in the market for children’s books that were both entertaining and aligned with family-friendly values. She wanted to create stories that not only entertained kids but also conveyed positive messages without feeling preachy. This realization spurred her to start her own publishing company after finding it challenging to land a traditional publishing deal.

Beloved Chronicles LLC: A Dream Realized

Becca founded Beloved Chronicles LLC to bring her vision to life. She emphasizes that independent publishing is a collaborative effort that includes a team of editors, illustrators, and cover designers. This allows her to focus on writing books that resonate with families and children alike.

Her Books: Road Trip Rescue & Scout and Barnaby Mysteries

Becca’s first series, Road Trip Rescue, follows the journey of a girl named Kimmy who embarks on an adventure to find her lost dog. The story touches on themes of anxiety, loss, and self-acceptance, providing young readers with relatable experiences. The second series, Scout and Barnaby Mysteries, includes humorous and heartwarming stories about a girl and her dog solving mysteries at a wilderness camp, perfect for ages six to ten.

The Importance of Emotional Depth in Children’s Stories

In her books, Becca aims to address real emotions that children face. For instance, in Road Trip Rescue, Kimmy experiences anxiety and insecurity relating to her arm, as well as the loss of her dog and a friendship. These themes are crucial as they help children navigate their own feelings and foster empathy.

Conclusion:

Becca Wierwille’s journey from teacher to author is a testament to the power of storytelling in children’s lives. By creating engaging, clean, and meaningful literature, she aims to inspire and connect with young readers. Her experiences highlight the importance of addressing real emotions in children’s stories, making them both relatable and enriching.

 The Homeschool Curious Podcast

In a world where screen time often overshadows nature, Julianne Nienberg, the voice behind My Outdoorsy Mom, emphasizes the importance of unstructured outdoor play for children. From her experiences in Michigan’s beautiful landscapes to the challenges of winter, Julianne shares invaluable insights on how parents can foster a love for the outdoors in their kids.

Who is the My Outdoorsy Mom?

Julianne’s journey as My Outdoorsy Mom began during a hectic winter while she was a full-time working mom with two toddlers and a third on the way. She felt a pressing need for her children to experience more outdoor play amidst their busy lives.

Inspired by the book “There’s No Such Thing as Bad Weather,” which highlights Scandinavian culture’s integration of nature into daily life, Julianne made it her mission to prioritize outdoor time for her kids. After work, she would rush her children home, quickly get them into their snow gear, and encourage them to spend even just 15 minutes outside. This commitment sparked a transformation in their daily routine and ignited a passion for exploration.

Overcoming Obstacles to Outdoor Play

Julianne acknowledges that the initial hurdle for parents, especially in cold climates, is the time-consuming process of dressing kids for outdoor activities. She humorously notes that parents often spend more time getting gear on than actually enjoying the outdoors.

However, she reassures parents that persistence pays off. Her youngest son, now five, is impressively quick at putting on his snow pants, a skill he developed with practice. By embracing small outdoor moments throughout the day—whether it’s a quick snack on the patio or a short walk after nap time—parents can cultivate a love for nature in their children.

The Beauty of Risky Play

One of the most rewarding aspects of Julianne’s parenting journey has been witnessing her children engage in risky play. Her middle child, who is naturally adventurous, has often pushed the boundaries, climbing high into trees. Julianne has learned to hold back her instinctive reactions, allowing him to explore and develop confidence in his abilities. She emphasizes the importance of unstructured playtime, where children can explore their limits and learn to assess risks independently. This freedom not only fosters independence but also nurtures creativity and imagination.

Building a Connection with Nature

Julianne encourages parents to send their children outside without an abundance of toys, allowing them to use their imagination to create and explore. She shares how her children have built villages with sticks and rocks, showcasing the wonders of unstructured play. By stepping back and allowing their creativity to flourish, children learn to appreciate the beauty of nature and develop essential life skills.

Key Takeaways

Julianne’s insights remind us of the immense value of outdoor play in children’s lives. By prioritizing unstructured time in nature, parents can help their kids develop confidence, creativity, and a lifelong love for the outdoors. Embrace the little moments, invest in quality outdoor gear, and remember: kids are washable, and their adventures are invaluable.

Realistic Resolutions for Busy Moms

A Simple Framework for Sustainable Growth in 2026

Happy New Year, friends! If you’re anything like me, the turn of the calendar brings a rush of excitement mixed with a healthy dose of reality. As a homeschool mom expecting my fourth child, I know firsthand how overwhelming the “new year, new me” energy can feel when you’re already juggling little ones, lessons, meals, and everything in between.

In this solo episode, I share a gentle, grace-filled approach to goal-setting that actually sticks—no burnout, no perfectionism, just sustainable growth.

Why Most Resolutions Fail (Especially for Moms)

The start of a new year can feel like a fresh slate, but for busy moms, it often turns into another source of pressure. We dream big—revamp the homeschool routine, launch that side hustle, finally get consistent self-care—only to feel defeated by mid-February when life (sick kids, unexpected chaos, pregnancy fatigue) inevitably interrupts. The truth is, grand overhauls rarely work in our season. What does work is focusing on a few realistic, meaningful goals that honor where you are right now.

In the episode, I introduced a simple framework: choose just ONE goal per category (or fewer if that’s all your plate can hold). This keeps things manageable, prevents overwhelm, and lets you celebrate small wins that build momentum throughout the year. The three categories? Personal, business (if it applies), and homeschooling.

1. Personal Goals: Recharge Your Own Cup First

You can’t pour from an empty cup, mama. Personal goals should center on self-care and filling your soul—things that give you energy rather than drain it. Examples from the episode include:

• Committing to 10 minutes of daily quiet time (prayer, journaling, or just breathing).
• A short weekly walk or ritual that’s non-negotiable.

These aren’t about massive transformations; they’re about small, consistent habits that help you show up more present and patient for your family.

2. Business Goals: Complement, Don’t Compete with Family Life

If you’re running a podcast, blog, side hustle, or even dreaming of one, set a goal that fits around your homeschool rhythm—not against it. Ideas include:

• Posting or creating content once a week (batch it during quieter moments).
• Learning one new skill through short tutorials.

The key is flexibility—work during independent study time or naptime, and remember progress over perfection. If business isn’t your focus right now, skip this category entirely and pour more into personal or homeschool goals.

3. Homeschool Goals: Keep It Joyful and Flexible

Homeschooling thrives on relationship and curiosity, not rigid checklists. Pick one goal to enhance your days without adding stress. Suggestions:

• Incorporate one hands-on family activity or nature outing per month.
• Streamline by focusing on core subjects and using flexible resources (like online classes for variety).
• Build in more free afternoons for play and life skills.

Align it with your family’s values—maybe weaving in faith or real-world learning—and give yourself permission to adapt when life happens.

The Power of Grace, Community, and Small Wins

The biggest takeaway? Limit yourself to 2–3 goals total and embrace grace. Miss a day? Tomorrow is new. Celebrate the small stuff—it’s the compound effect that creates real change. Surround yourself with supportive community (online groups, local co-ops, or even this podcast!) to stay encouraged.

Whether you’re homeschool-curious, deep in the trenches, or navigating a big life transition like welcoming a new baby, this episode is your reminder: You’re already doing so much. 2026 can be a year of gentle, joyful growth—not exhaustion.

Listen to the full episode on your favorite platform (Spotify, Apple Podcasts, etc.) for more stories, examples, and encouragement. Grab your planner, pick your one goal per category, and let’s make this year about sustainable wins.

Stay curious, mamas. You’ve got this!

      

In today’s ever-changing education landscape, homeschooling continues to grow as families seek flexible, personalized, and faith-based learning options. In this episode of Home School Curious, host Morgan Bergstrom sits down with Kristen, Director of Marketing for SchoolhouseTeachers.com, to talk through the realities of homeschooling and how families can confidently get started—no teaching degree required.

Kristen’s Homeschooling Story

Kristen shares how her background as a high school history teacher (grades 9–12) shaped her family’s decision to homeschool. Wanting to provide a biblical worldview and reduce the challenges of bullying she and her husband experienced in public school, they chose a more intentional learning environment for their children—one built on support, flexibility, and faith.

You Don’t Need a Teaching Degree

Homeschooling can feel intimidating, especially for parents without an education background. Kristen offers reassurance: if you can manage your children and guide their learning, you can homeschool successfully. With the right tools and support, parents can teach confidently while balancing work and family life.

The Role of SchoolhouseTeachers.com

SchoolhouseTeachers.com offers a complete PreK–12 curriculum that allows parents to customize learning by subject and ability level. Whether a child excels in language arts but needs extra help in math—or vice versa—families can mix and match courses to meet individual needs.

One of the platform’s biggest strengths is its parent-led design. Lesson plans and guides are provided, but parents stay in charge of pacing, structure, and approach—making it adaptable for every homeschool style.

Engaging Young Learners

For younger students, hands-on activities and sensory learning bring lessons to life. Kristen shares examples like construction-themed science lessons using vehicles and tactile materials to reinforce foundational concepts through play and exploration.

Supporting Independent Learners

As students grow—often around fifth grade—the curriculum encourages greater independence. Interactive courses allow students to work more autonomously, giving parents flexibility while still staying involved in their child’s education.

Key Takeaways

• Homeschooling can be flexible, faith-filled, and achievable for any family

• You don’t need a teaching degree to homeschool successfully

• SchoolhouseTeachers.com offers customizable PreK–12 curriculum options

• Hands-on learning keeps younger kids engaged

• Encouraging independence helps balance homeschooling with real life

In this episode of The Home School Curious Podcast, host Morgan Bergstrom goes straight to the front lines, sharing real-life wisdom from years of traveling with her three boys. With the holiday season approaching and many families hitting the road or skies, Morgan offers practical, calming, and confidence-building advice for navigating trips with young children. This isn’t Pinterest-perfect travel—it’s honest, doable, and rooted in experience.

From booking flights and packing smart to surviving airports and keeping little ones engaged, Morgan breaks down what actually works (and what doesn’t). She also reminds parents of something essential: kids take their emotional cues from us. Staying calm, flexible, and prepared can make all the difference—not just for the trip itself, but for the memories you create along the way ❤️

Whether you’re traveling solo, with a partner, or just gearing up for your first big trip with toddlers, this episode will leave you encouraged, equipped, and ready to go.

Traveling with Toddlers: Real Tips from the Front Lines

Key Takeaways

One of the biggest lessons from traveling with kids is to stay calm—children easily sense and mirror your stress, so keeping a steady demeanor sets the tone for a smoother experience. Over time, these trips build real confidence in your ability to handle whatever comes up.

• Booking everything online is essential for finding the best deals and options that work for your family.
• Always pack a full change of clothes for yourself as well as the kids, since spills and mishaps are inevitable. Arriving at the airport early gives everyone a chance to burn off energy before boarding, and many parents find it helpful to board last to shorten the time spent confined on the plane.
• Hyping up the trip ahead of time gets kids excited and mentally prepared, while saving screens as a true last resort keeps other options fresh.
• Small surprise toys or new activities can work wonders for entertainment, and ultimately, the effort of traveling with children is always worth it for the joy of connecting with family.

My Real Homeschool Story (The one I never fully told)

After two years of keeping it quiet, Morgan finally opens up: since 2023, our family has been living in Mumbai, India.

In this raw, reflective solo episode recorded on our very last day in the city, I share the unfiltered truth about this life-changing chapter—the chaos, the magic, how India rewired the way I parent and homeschool, and the sudden, devastating event that shook everything only eight weeks after we arrived.

Two months into our move, my mom suffered a massive hemorrhagic stroke back in the U.S. Being half a world away while she fought for her life flipped a switch inside me: priorities changed overnight and I understood on a deep level what family, time, and presence actually mean. This isn’t just a travel reflection—it’s the story of how India and that terrifying phone call together reshaped my entire perspective on life, parenting, and what matters most.

In This Episode You’ll Hear

How we ended up moving our family of five to Mumbai, what daily life and schooling 3 kids in our apartment really looked like, and how living immersed in a completely different culture transformed everything I thought I knew about education and “normal.” I open up about the moment everything changed, getting the call about my mom’s stroke, the helplessness of being 8,000 miles away, and how that crisis became the lens through which I now see gratitude, family, and every single day. I also share the overwhelming and beautiful moments alike, why travel with kids is the ultimate real-life education, how India taught me to let go of control, and why tomorrow’s flight home feels both heartbreaking and exactly right.

Episode Summary:

In this heartwarming episode of the Homeschool Curious podcast, host Morgan Bergstrom sits down with Dr. Melanie Wilson—a former clinical psychologist turned homeschooling veteran and curriculum creator. Melanie opens up about her unexpected leap from a thriving career in psychology, writing, and speaking to homeschooling her six children for over 20 years (all of whom graduated and pursued college).

Melanie dives into the passion behind Grammar Galaxy, her story-based language arts curriculum designed to make learning fun and engaging for elementary kids. She also reflects on launching The Homeschool Sanity Show, her podcast packed with practical parenting and homeschooling tips.

The conversation tackles real homeschooling challenges—like discipline, teaching multiple ages, and overcomplicating things—while offering hope: kids are resilient, parenting mistakes don’t define outcomes, and reading aloud remains one of the most powerful tools in any homeschool.

Key Takeaways:

• Melanie transitioned from clinical psychology to full-time homeschooling—and never looked back.
• She was once homeschool curious herself.
• Structure is non-negotiable, but homeschooling can (and should) be simpler than we make it.

• Enjoy the journey—homeschooling works best when it’s fun for everyone.

Whether you’re burned out, just starting, or simply curious—this episode is a masterclass in keeping homeschooling sane, simple, and joyful.
