  • Great lessons

    To the point and on subjects that structure days well at home, we don’t have a “strictly Charlotte Mason” homeschool plan but her podcasts have helped shape what we do so much! Thank you!

  • Delight to my Heart

    Mrs. Shafer helped change the trajectory of my homeschool 5 years ago. And I still listen to her podcasts for encouragement. Her sweet voice calms my soul, uplifts my spirit, gives me strength to do what I need to do for my kids, helps form ideas for me to mull over, and in general just makes me happy!

  • Love It

    I love how the episodes are short and to the point. Too many podcast episodes on other podcasts are 45mins-1 hour long and are mostly fluff. As a busy mom I don’t have time for that. I can rely on Sonya to just dive right in.

  • Great podcast

    I have been listening to this podcast for a long time. I am not a homeschooling mom but this podcast is so amazing. I can learn a lot about how to be a good mom and how to support my kids learning outside of school. This also helps me set my expectations for my kids.
