About The Unschool Space
Unschooling isn't just about education, it's a life choice! For most parents, embracing unschooling requires some serious unravelling of old paradigms around parenting, learning and childhood, and that can be both challenging and exhilarating. Join me, Esther Jones, a mindful parenting coach and unschooling mother-of-three, as I take a look at the many opportunities for reflection that naturally arise in an unschooling home. Each episode, I chat with other parents about their family’s experiences. From self-care, neurodiversity and mindfulness, to how to live consensually and trust our children, this podcast is here to help parents navigate the everyday challenges so they're free to create a healthy, nourishing and enriching space for themselves and their family.

Published 26 May 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Yeah. I think they're one of the big advantages, uh, for children who, um, Well, neurodivergent children, all children who potentially at school have got that kind of deficit lens on them, all the things that are wrong. Right. Outside of school, you don't have to have that. They can be neurodivergent and they can have challenges and there can be things that are very difficult for them, but you still can hold them as an absolute whole person, right? Yeah. And the challenges are just something that together you can work out the best way to deal with them. But I don't think they ever have to be under that... kind of critical gaze of what's wrong with you, you know, which. […]
