As another school year begins, are we asking the right questions about our children’s education? In this episode of The Parenting Wisdom Podcast, I share my family’s journey—from questioning the traditional school system, to five years of unschooling, to finding balance in a homeschool co-op.
We explore:
- Why early academic pressure may be harming our kids.
- The core principles of unschooling and what they look like in real life.
- The crucial role of free, unstructured play in building resilience.
- Practical tips for reducing academic stress while supporting growth.
- How to lead your child’s education with both freedom and structure.
Whether your child is in public school, homeschool, or something in between, this episode will help you see the bigger picture, clarify your educational values, and lead your family with confidence in a changing world.
