This week on @theaccidentalhomeschoolmama podcast podcast I had the pleasure of sitting down with local mama Roxanne Lubbers of Explore More Photography and nature classes.

This is an extra special episode as Roxanne is a dear friend to me and one of those mamas who personally took me under her wing as a new homeschool mom.

We talk about the importance of community and finding your people in order to make homeschool sustainable for us moms.

You donโ€™t want to miss this episode!

Meet Roxanne:

Roxanne Lubbers plays the role of mom, teacher, and artist. With a kindergartener, tween, teen, and her best friend husband, her focus is cemented in making sure she creates a happy and active life with her family. A โ€œJack of all trades,โ€ she has degrees in photography and interior design and spent years working the corporate life. Kids brought her back to her life purpose - to be a mom - and freed her from the indoor life that always felt wrong. She became hyper focused on  finding ways to bring people together. First by building a popular play school for stay at home moms, and later by helping young children and their families play in the woods and literally play in mud! By staying focused on what brings her joy, she has continued to create connections by building several homeschool groups. She also switched from photojournalism to family photography. Because, as someone who loves to laugh, there isnโ€™t anything better than coaxing a smile out of a timid child.
