28. Self Care vs. Selfishness

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.To support this podcast use this code when you sign up for World Watch NewsDon't forget to follow The Latecomers Podcast on Instagram!And join the Facebook group!
