Meet Alicia

They always tell you to enjoy these days with our children, because they go by so fast, but I didn't fully believe it until my oldest graduated from high school. It does really go so so fast, but my goodness is it a beautiful ride!

Now, more than ever, I want to help homeschool families slow down, create a haven at home that looks entirely different than our fast-paced world, and live intentionally. 

Learning Well Journal is for you if...

You're Struggling to Stay Focused

The world is crazyyyy, we understand! Part of the reason we created LWJ is to help mamas see what they actually CAN control. We'll help you pinpoint the little things you can do every day to help your home feel more calm and focused.

You Spend Too Much Time On Your Phone

So much of our daily life is spent on a screen. We'd like to change that. Yes to paper. Yes to more screen-free activities. Yes to print. 

You Want More Intentional Family Time

Life seems to speed by at the speed of light, doesn't it?! The last thing we want to do is let it speed by without real, intentional time spent together making memories as a family. We take great care in making sure each article helps you be more intentional with your family.

Your Home + Homeschool Need a Boost of Joy

I am no longer homeschooling young children. Will this magazine be useful for those of us homeschooling teenagers?

Is there a digital option?

So many hours of our lives are spent on screens. We intentionally designed Learning Well Journal to be a print only magazine. We want to encourage moms to take a break, sit down with a cup of coffee, and savor the words that have been so thoughtfully written and curated just for them. That said, we have made available a few out-of-print issues in digital form for new subscribers who missed out! Check out digital issues here.
