This Wasn't the plan
Fear, Freedom & A Wild Homeschool Journey—A Conversation With Krissa Tejada of The Homeschool Hub
If you’ve ever thought about homeschooling but felt completely terrified, you’re not alone.
What if you fail your kids? What if you’re not qualified to teach them? What if you never find your community?What if you give up your free time and regret it?
These are the exact fears that so many parents wrestle with when they first consider homeschooling. And today, we’re getting real about all of them.
In this episode of the Homeschool Hug, I sit down with Krissa Tejada, owner of The Homeschool Hub in Lewisville, Texas, to talk about her incredible journey—from being a student in a moment that changed her life forever, to taking a wild leap of faith and opening a brick-and-mortar homeschool store with zero experience.
This conversation is packed with honest, untold stories and the kind of encouragement every homeschool parent needs.
Here’s what we cover:
- The biggest struggles homeschool parents walk into her store with—and how to handle them
- The thing we both tried to avoid teaching our kids (and how it didn’t work)
- Why fear keeps so many parents from homeschooling—and how to push past it
- How to homeschool without giving up your own life, time, and identity
- Balancing work and homeschooling—can it really be done?
Krissa’s journey is proof that you don’t need to have it all figured out to take the leap.
Whether you’re just starting or have been homeschooling for years, this episode will challenge what you think you know about homeschooling, fear, and the freedom that comes when you embrace the unknown.
