Hi Friend,

I so enjoy the conversation with you in this weekly email. So many of you write back and share personal stories and experiences. I do read them all, though don't always reply to each one. Just know how meaningful they are to me!

Let's change up the mood a bit: how about coffee with Julie? I know not all of you drink tea. Hence, the coffee cup in the banner!

In our next series, I want to hold a microscope up to the burnout experience. On top of a pandemic that tested every one of us within an inch of our own despair, add the responsibility to be the educator of children and it's not surprising to me at all if you are Just So Done.

It's possible to rise from the ashes of our lost energy and drive. I've got ideas for you.

Until then, if you aren't following me on Instagram yet, you may want to. I did a 25 minute Instagram Live (now an IGTV) last week about the beauty of your choice to be a parent who home educates. At the time of this email, nearly 20,000 people have watched it. It might be a good way to address burnout before we get started here.

I hope you'll read along with me!

Warmly,
