Life coach, impassioned author, type 1 diabetic, founder of lifestyle company Be You Only Better, and homeschool mom of two Laura Kronen tells it like it is. She gives you the foundation you need to successfully and happily homeschool kindergarten through high school students. Laura is currently on a mission to dispel the stereotypes surrounding homeschooling and to bring home education to the mainstream.
Besides authoring Homeschool Happily and Too Sweet: The Not-So-Serious Side to Diabetes, Laura is a lover of wine and tennis (although not at the same time). When not homeschooling her boys or working, she spends her spare time traveling, volunteering, enjoying the sunshine, and buying things in the middle of the night that she doesn't really need.
You'll find her eclectic energy all over social media, including on her YouTube channel, Super Cool Home School, which features good-vibe educational videos on homeschooling, diabetes, trivia, and sometimes just her stream of consciousness. Reflective of her life, Laura's social networks are an intriguing potpourri, a little bit of everything.
