I’m so excited you’re here because today we’re kicking off a brand-new podcast series all about hiring teachers for your microschool, homeschool hybrid, or tutoring business. This is one of the most important, most transformational, and let’s be honest—sometimes most overwhelming—parts of growing your dream teacher business.

If you’re listening right now, I’m guessing you’re either feeling the nudge that it’s time to bring someone onto your team, or maybe you’ve already tried and it didn’t quite go as planned.
You might be asking yourself things like:

• “How do I know if they’re the right fit?”

• “Can I even afford to hire help?”

• “What if they don’t teach like me?”

• “How do I trust someone else with my vision, my students, my families…?”

I get it.
And you are not alone.

I’m actually right in the middle of hiring teachers for my own microschool as we speak—so this series is coming straight from the heart and straight from the trenches.

Here’s the truth: You were never meant to carry this dream alone.
But hiring the wrong person… that can do more damage than doing it all by yourself.
And that’s why today’s episode is so foundational.

We’re talking about why hiring the right teachers can make or break your microschool vision.

This isn’t about finding someone with the perfect resume. It’s about building a team that shares your values, protects your culture, and helps you lead your school with peace—not pressure.

So if you’ve ever felt overwhelmed or unsure about how to grow your team the right way, today’s episode is going to give you clarity, confidence, and a little mindset shift that will change how you think about hiring forever.

So let me ask you a few real talk questions…

Have you ever felt that tug — the holy nudge — that you were made to do school differently?

Have you ever looked around your classroom, exhausted and overwhelmed, and whispered to yourself…
“There has to be a better way.”

You love teaching.
But the system? It’s draining you.
And the dream God placed on your heart to start something of your own — whether it’s a microschool, tutoring business, homeschool hybrid, or your own curriculum brand — just keeps getting louder.

But maybe you’ve been stuck at the starting line.

You don’t know what steps to take.
You’ve spent hours Googling.
Maybe you’ve even tried piecing it together with random YouTube videos or following educators on Instagram who seem to have it all figured out.
Still… no real traction.

I get it — I was there too. In today's episode, I have something BIG coming your way this week that's going to help you finally start your dream microschool or homeschooling business.

I’m so glad you’re here—because today’s topic is one that comes up all the time when teachers and homeschool families are just getting started:

“Should I just go with an all-in-one curriculum?”

I totally get the appeal. You’re trying to launch your microschool, build out your daily schedule, maybe teach across different ages—and you don’t want to spend hours piecing together separate programs for every subject.

You want something simple, done-for-you, and ready to go.

But then you start wondering…

• Will it work for all my students?

• Is it going to feel too cookie-cutter?

• What if I don’t agree with how they teach a certain subject?

• Do I still get to add my own flavor and creativity?

So in today’s episode, I’m breaking it all down for you:

• What is an all-in-one curriculum?

• The pros and cons (from someone who’s worked with lots of teachers and families who've tried them!)

• My favorite faith-based and secular options

• Who they work best for—and how to supplement or adapt without losing structure

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed trying to plan every subject from scratch, this episode is going to help you breathe, focus, and make a choice that fits your vision.

Today’s episode is all about something that so many educators wrestle with—how to choose and actually teach writing.

Let’s be honest: writing is one of those subjects that feels really personal.
It’s not as black and white as math. There’s no one “right answer.”
And if you’ve got reluctant writers—or a mix of ages and skill levels—it can feel downright overwhelming to figure out how to get everyone writing confidently and joyfully.

Maybe you’ve thought:

• “I don’t know how to teach writing. I was never taught how to write well myself.”

• “My kids freeze up when it’s time to write.”

• “How do I even grade writing or know if they’re making progress?”

• “Can I even find a writing curriculum that works for different levels and doesn’t feel boring?”

Friend, I hear you. I’ve felt those same things.

But I’ve also seen what’s possible when we stop looking for perfect writing mechanics—and start focusing on student voice, purpose, and confidence. And in today’s episode, I’m going to walk you through exactly how to do that.

If you’ve ever felt stuck trying to figure out which math program to choose… you’re not alone.

Maybe you’re wondering:

• “Do I go spiral or mastery-based?”

• “What if my students are all on different levels?”

• “How do I keep math hands-on but also structured?”

• “What if I’m not a math person and don’t want to teach every lesson from scratch?”

I see this all the time with the teachers I coach. You care so deeply about giving your students a solid foundation in math—but you also want something that works in real life... something that fits a small-group setting, doesn’t require hours of prep, and gives you the flexibility to meet your kids exactly where they are.

So in today’s episode, I’m breaking down:

• What to look for in a math curriculum that fits the microschool model

• Popular recommendations—faith-based and secular—for different ages

• And how to adapt any program for small groups or mixed-age learning

If you’ve been stuck in math curriculum decision fatigue, this episode is going to give you so much clarity and peace of mind. Let’s jump in.

I’m so glad you’re here because today’s episode is kicking off a brand-new series I’ve been dying to bring you.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed trying to figure out the right curriculum for your microschool or homeschool program—you’re not alone. Maybe you’ve asked:

• “Is this curriculum rigorous enough?”

• “Will this work for multiple ages?”

• “Is it faith-based… or can I tweak it to include a Biblical worldview?”

• “Will my kids actually enjoy this?”

• “How much time is this going to take me to prep every week?”

Friend, I get it. I’ve asked those same questions myself. I remember launching Kingdom Seed Christian Academy and staying up so late researching curriculum after curriculum—trying to find something that would fit our multi-age learners, support our self-paced structure, and still honor the values I wanted to build our school around.

But what I’ve learned—and what I want to share with you today—is that there’s no such thing as a perfect curriculum. There is such a thing as the right curriculum for your mission, your learners, and your teaching style.

And when you understand how to approach curriculum with clarity, confidence, and intention—you’ll stop second-guessing yourself and start creating learning experiences that truly light up your students.

So today, I’m giving you your Curriculum Game Plan: how to simplify your decision-making, what questions to ask before choosing a curriculum, and what to look for to make sure something is microschool-friendly. Let’s dive in.

This episode is one I wish someone had recorded for me years ago—because it would’ve saved me so much stress, so many sleepless nights, and so much financial fear.

Let me ask you something:
Are you tired of riding the income rollercoaster in your teacher business?
Do you feel like some months you’re doing great—tuition’s in, clients are booked, a few resources sold—and then the next month, you're asking God how in the world you're going to make it all work again?

Yeah… I’ve been there too.

Whether you're building a microschool, tutoring program, parent coaching business, homeschool hybrid, or you're selling your resources online—there’s one powerful shift you can make that changes everything. And that shift is building in recurring revenue—revenue that shows up for you every single month whether you’re promoting something or not.

I know so many of you are out there pouring your heart into your students and clients. You’re showing up with so much passion—but your bank account still feels like it’s on life support. You’re not dreaming small—you just need structure. You need a financial foundation that doesn’t crumble when life gets busy, when enrollment dips, or when you need to step away for your own rest.

And guess what?
There’s a better way.
A more peaceful way.
A more purposeful way.

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down real, practical recurring revenue models you can implement—no matter what stage you're in. I’m not talking about pie-in-the-sky dreams or things that take thousands of dollars to get off the ground. These are things you can prayerfully and powerfully start building right now.

So grab your coffee or your notebook—or both—and let’s dive into the best recurring revenue ideas for educators just like you.
