No Higher Calling

Brettnay Brazzell

God has given me a passion for motherhood and homemaking. From that passion, a ministry has birthed- No Higher Calling. There is no higher calling on my life than to be wife to Simeon and mama to my littles. Join with me on my motherhood journey as I seek to encourage moms and point them to Christ.

    Unconventional Ways We Homeschool

    In this episode, we’re talking about how homeschooling doesn’t have to look like traditional school at home. From a 4-day school week and being done by lunch, to skipping written tests and learning multiple ages together, we share the freedom and flexibility that homeschooling can offer. We also discuss moving at your child’s pace, avoiding rigid curriculum expectations, and creating a homeschool rhythm that truly fits your family’s unique needs and values. Homeschooling can be exactly what your family needs it to be- and that is a beautiful freedom!

    Lunch Matrix

    Sometimes, there are pain points in life. One of those for me as a busy, homeschool mama was lunch. We try to finish all of our school day prior to lunch (which I love), but that means that we race into lunch time. I needed a plan to help keep lunch easy and quick to get on the table. Insert the lunch matrix! Giving some thought to what we'll eat ahead of time helps me to serve my family healthy, whole foods with minimal lunch prep.
