You’re not even halfway into the school year and ALREADY it’s just not working for you or your child. That is OK mama. Take a deep breath and know you have other options… 

I get it. I too didn’t think there were other options for my family either, but after chatting with shelly Ross – with locally owned closet concepts here in town, she is the one who initially helped me realize…  Hubby and I have other options for our three year old. We just started dipping our toes into the water and exploring ALL of our options – I am looking at Lutheran schools, Catholic schools, Christian schools, public schools! Last episode I had a guest on to explore homeschooling… told ya… looking at ALL the options…  

Shelly knew I was on this fact finding mission so she introduced me to Katie Slee. She is the Director of Advancement at Bishop Dwenger, just so I could start to gather all the facts. I know location and finances are always factors, but they don’t have to be, especially with the recent expansion of Indiana’s Choice Scholarship program. If you are trying to move your child or explore alternatives Katie is a great resource when it comes to a catholic school. The deep dive into education options continues right now here on the News Mom podcast.

Being a mom is hard. Being a mom in 2023 is even harder.

In a world of gender confusion, big tech gone wild, exploding daycare costs and even potty training getting political, being a mom in 2023 is definitely not for the faint of heart.

Your host Kayla Blakeslee has worked in news/talk radio for over a decade and has taken on lawmakers from both sides of the aisle. And yet, her experience in news/talk has been no match for being a parent.

As a new mom, Kayla quickly learned not only is her full-time job political, but so is being a mom.

Kayla will share stories and insights, interview guests and have unfiltered conversations about how motherhood and everything in it has become so political. Hopefully, she will also be able to arm you with some tools to take on some of these new policies.

So hop in your car, find a nearby bathroom, or any other spot where you hide from your kids, and get ready to talk everything from potty training to politics. ​
