Katy shares a summer update and shares about finishing her Latecomers Retreat field guides, now available on her website. Reflecting on a tricky homeschool year with fewer field trips, she’s joining an outdoor nature co-op and focusing on mindset, gratitude, and strong relationships with her kids. She unpacks self-care vs. selfishness from a Christian perspective, describing self-care as “fuel in the tank” that builds patience, generosity, and long-term homeschooling longevity. She explains her daily self-care routines (quiet mornings outside with coffee, Bible recap, favorite mugs, eye patches) and her bigger yearly reset: a homeschool planning retreat with a friend in Fredericksburg, Texas. She details her retreat guides (two-night, three-night, and no-travel), plus optional concierge help, exclusive podcast episodes, and an upcoming social media giveaway.
