Don’t Take Things Personally

Has anybody ever disappointed you? Maybe you feel personally hurt by your homeschool group members.

Homeschool leader Becky Abrams leads a homeschooling co-op in Oregon. She has learned how to avoid take things personally. It takes practice, but Becky shares some tips and a very helpful mindset (involving a bus driver) that will help you overcome disappointment.

In this episode of the HomeschoolCPA podcast Becky explains:

How to deal with unmet expectations
How to avoid taking things (like a family leaving your co-op) personally
A great illustration about how homeschool groups are like a bus!
How to avoid stewing on emotional issues and disappointment
Why member might leave your homeschool group
A helpful mindset starts with controlling our thoughts

My favorite quote from Becky in this episode is “It’s very likely it doesn’t have anything to do with you!”

In the podcast, Carol mentioned the I Am a Homeschool Group Leader Facebook Group. It is a closed group (meaning you have to request to join) of 500 homeschool leaders from across the USA. You can join us here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/72534255742/
