Amber O'Neal Johnston is the creator of Soul School, author, friend, and inspiration, and we are so excited to have her on the podcast. She quit a successful job in the corporate world, and with her husband and four children, embarked on a Charlotte Mason Education. However, early on, she took ownership of it to find and curate beautiful living books that more closely resonated with her family's cultural heritage.

In episode 146, Jennifer and Amber talk about the heart of Charlotte Mason, and why it's not only about old books, the importance of protecting young children from inappropriate material, why it's okay to curate what your kids read, and the joy of learning in a Holy Spirit led environment. If you love Charlotte Mason, but are wanting more, this episode is for you.
