Home educating during difficult life circumstances can feel lonely and impossible to navigate. We understand these challenges at SPED Homeschool, that's why we focus one month of our broadcast each year for sharing homeschool veteran stories of hope and encouragement. This week's broadcast features a veteran homeschooler, Nichelle Nelson and her story on how she and her family homeschooled while grieving the loss of her oldest child and the lessons they learned through this journey. Our special guest this week on Empowering Homeschool Conversations was Nichelle Nelson, veteran homeschool mom, Air Force brat/wife/mom, and virtual education entrepreneur.
