About Me

Hey, I’m Britt — homeschooling mum, overthinker by nature, follower of Christ, and someone still learning how to hold grace and growth in the same messy handful.

The Essence of Becoming is my place to write through the chaos — where homeschool meets heart work, faith meets fatigue, and learning happens in unexpected, unbalanced, and beautiful ways.

This blog isn’t about being the perfect parent or educator (spoiler: I’m neither). It’s about showing up anyway. It’s for the days when the dishes are stacked high, the lesson plans are forgotten, and the kids learn something incredible despite all of that.

Here, you’ll find real stories, thoughtful reflections, and practical resources that honour the slow, sacred, and slightly chaotic process of becoming — as a parent, as a person, and as a family.

Because becoming isn’t a destination — it’s the whole point.
