This is her mission and vision for Pocket Homeschool. In this episode Melissa explains how Some really Good friends of Melissa encouraged her and showed her that she had something valuable to offer and now she creates that for you and loves creating curriculum resources for other families. She combines academics like learning about the wetlands with family experiences! And her units cost about as much as 2 gallons of milk! It is curriculum for any budget! You got this guys!  

Top three takeaways 

1. With the rise of influencers, a lot of people think there are lots of people out there homeschooling perfectly, in a really Instagram pretty way. But real homeschooling is not always picture perfect and you need to prepare yourself for the bad day! 
2. Most people don't realize just how much freedom and flexibility homeschooling allows you to truly have. Often times people who don't homeschool ask about homeschooling, they often frame it in a way as if it operated like a brick and mortar school. Homeschooling is not traditional school at home it can be whatever you want it to be!  
3. New Homeschooling families will need help and there are people ready in the wings to make homeschooling a smooth transition with resources in your hand!
