In this inspiring episode of Empowering Homeschool Conversations, host Leilani Melendez sits down with Dani Ward, a homeschooling mom of two and creator of a practical family Bible study on the fruit of the Spirit. Dani shares how a single quote—“Comfort should not be our core value”—transformed her perspective on motherhood, homeschooling, and faith. From embracing rhythm over balance to choosing obedience over ease, Dani opens up about the discomfort that often precedes growth and how stepping outside her comfort zone led her to create resources for meaningful family discipleship. If you’ve ever felt stretched thin or unsure about what God is asking of you in your homeschooling journey, this episode will encourage you to lean into faith and trust that God equips those He calls.
