13 Things Mentally Strong Homeschool Moms Don’t Do

Mentally strong homeschool moms are not born that way. They are built — one honest, uncomfortable, growing moment at a time.

And this book by Amy Morin is one of the best tools I have found for that building work.

How This Book Found Me

It found me in an airport bookshop — you know that thing you do when you’re killing time waiting for a boarding call, and you wander the shelves because there’s nothing else to do and you’re not ready to sit yet? The title stopped me cold: 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do by Amy Morin.

I picked it up. I could not put it down.

When I read the list on the back cover, I thought — I could have written this book. These are things I’ve learned and am still learning in my own life. And I have absolutely learned most of them in the context of homeschooling my four kids.

This is how Amy Morin informs my homeschool.

What Amy Morin Says About Mentally Strong People

“Mentally strong people have healthy habits. They manage their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors in ways that set them up for success in life.”
