How I Became a Calm, Confident Teacher of Reading & Faith in 30 Days—Without a Degree in Theology or a Perfect Life

& the simple framework I used to create peace at home without burnout, pressure, or pretending to be someone I’m not.

Think You Don’t Have Time to Be Your Child’s Teacher? I Get It.

 

You don’t need a degree in education, a perfect routine, or hours of quiet time to teach your child reading and faith with confidence. There are moms—just like you—with busy routines and messy schedules, building peaceful homes where faith and learning grow together.

What they do have is a grace-filled strategy. One that helps them teach without striving, lead without pressure, and stay grounded in their God-given role, no matter what season they’re in.

Inside this free training, I’ll show you how I went from an anxious and emotionally overwhelmed teacher to calm, confident, and grounded—able to teach little ones and mentor moms in reading and faith through real-life messes, nap-time windows, and Spirit-led simplicity.

If you're here, then you know…

More checklists and curriculum aren’t the answer.

Neither is chasing perfection, trying to recreate school at home, or constantly feeling like you're falling short of “enough.”


If you're trying to lead your child spiritually and support their learning, you need a strategy that works without draining your peace, values, or joy.


And that’s exactly what I’ll show you.


Not how to become a Pinterest-perfect homeschooler.
Not how to juggle more tasks in your day.
Not how to compare yourself to someone else’s highlight reel.


But how women just like you are building rhythm, peace, and confidence—without needing to do more—by anchoring their teaching in calling, not performance.

Your Home Is the Only Place Where Faith & Literacy Can Flourish Without Pressure.

Most systems reward busyness—endless routines, unrealistic goals, and noisy expectations that wear you down.

But home is different.
Your presence doesn’t expire in 24 hours. Every moment of connection—every small act of faith and teaching—plants seeds that last.

This training will show you how to use that to your advantage—so you’re building real, lasting impact, not chasing unrealistic expectations.

This workshop is for you if...

 

✔️ You feel overwhelmed, underqualified, or unsure where to start when it comes to teaching your child how to read or grow in faith—and you're tired of second-guessing yourself.

✔️ You don’t have children, but feel called to teach—and you’re overwhelmed, unsure if you’ll ever be ready or even know where to begin.

✔️ You've tried expert advice, rigid curricula, or endless Pinterest ideas, but none of it has brought lasting peace.

✔️ You don’t want to teach children, but you know you're called to teach in some way, and you're stuck and searching for clarity.

✔️ You pour out constantly and are left feeling empty, questioning if teaching your children is even making a difference, or if you're doing a good job at all.

✔️ You deeply desire to lead your child well but feel stuck in anxiety, spiritual disconnection, or emotional exhaustion, wondering if you're really enough.

✔️ You’ve been taught that more effort equals better outcomes, but you’re running out of energy, and it still feels like you’re falling short.

✔️ You long to create a peaceful, Christ-centered home, but keep finding yourself in survival mode—numbing out, snapping at your child, or running on autopilot.

✔️ You love God, but you’re battling symptoms like anxiety, depression, and anger that make it hard to show up the way you want to—especially when it comes to teaching.

✔️ You’ve tried therapy, supplements, exercise, and self-care routines… but nothing seems to calm the chaos for good.

WIFE · ONLINE EDUCATOR · FAITH MENTOR · LITERACY COACH

I help Christian women calm their inner chaos so they can teach their children reading and faith from a place of peace—not pressure.


But I didn’t start here.

 

Before I ever mentored moms or taught students… Before I had the words for “spiritual dysregulation” or “grace-based teaching”… I was overwhelmed. Anxious. Burnt out. And I was silently wondering if I was the problem.

SAME! LET ME IN EARLY

If you’ve ever thought...

“I should be further along by now.”
“I love my child… but I dread teaching them.”
“Maybe I’m not cut out for this.”


Then I want you to know... I’ve lived those thoughts too.

 

The Breakdown That Became My Breakthrough

I didn’t have a dramatic “aha moment.” It was more like a slow unraveling.


A string of exhausted mornings.
Crippling guilt for snapping at the people I loved.
Devotionals I couldn’t focus on.
And a lingering lie that said, “If you were really called to this, it wouldn’t feel so hard.”


Eventually, something had to give.
So I stopped chasing the perfect routine.
I stopped pretending I could “push through.”
And I let God rebuild everything—from the inside out.

 

That’s When Everything Changed

When I finally stopped striving, the Lord met me in my surrender.
He taught me to regulate my nervous system—without New Age practices.
He showed me how to disciple children—without rigid pressure or performance.
And He led me to a system of teaching reading—that works because it’s rooted in relationship, not just repetition.

From there, I started helping other women walk the same path.
Not because I had a degree in theology.
Not because I was some kind of perfect Proverbs 31 checklist.

But because I’d been in the dark—and found the way out.
And now I get to walk other women toward that same peace.

 

What I Teach Now Is Different
This isn’t another 47-step plan or color-coded curriculum.

It’s a biblical, grace-filled framework for calming the chaos within—
so you can teach your child the way God designed you to:
from calling, not credentials.
in peace, not panic.
with connection, not contempt.
It’s not about being the perfect mom.
It’s about becoming the kind of presence that nurtures peace in your home—
because your heart is finally at peace too.

Why I Really Do This
I’ve seen what happens when a woman stops striving and starts living from grace.
She becomes a safe place.
A steady guide.
A confident teacher.
And she passes that same peace on to her children—not through force, but through faithfulness.
That’s why I created this free workshop.
Because I believe your story can shift too.
Not years from now.
Not when everything calms down.
But starting today.

You don’t need more pressure.
You need permission to start small.
And the tools to build something Spirit-led and sustainable.
Come learn the same 5-step framework that changed everything for me.
It’s free, it’s practical, and it’s full of grace.
And I made it with you in mind.
Because I’ve been where you are.
And by God’s grace—I found a better way.
