Want to know more about unschooling? How about radical unschooling? (It’s not as scary or as wild as some people make out!) Join me as I share ideas, stories, homeschool record-keeping tips and resources for living an unschooling life of unconditional love.
Why don’t I care? Is there nothing I care about? Or do I no longer care about the things that could prevent me from doing what I feel called to do? Have you also learnt not to care?
In episode 208, I share:
Additional thoughts about episode 207

207: The Unschool Fangirl Returns
I’m back and I’m fangirling!
Will I stay? Will I find a new focus for my podcast? Will I find a co-host? Will I get enough sleep? And who am I fangirling over?
This week, I’m sharing thoughts on
unschooling as a business
doing things for free
ageing unschoolers who might have unique skills to offer
our superpower- unconditional love
competing and persuading
social media
and lots of other things.
