  • Don't Believe These Unschooling Myths
    Mar 21 2023

    In this episode, I spend some time examining three common perceptions that are unique to unschooling:

    • That unschooling is 'unparenting'
    • That unschooling will create lazy children
    • And that unschooling means you have no rules or structure whatsoever

    It’s a super interesting discussion that leads us through areas like life rhythms, autonomy and motivation, and regardless of whether you’re unschooling or not I think you’ll find this episode really useful!

  • You Are Enough
    Oct 20 2022

    In this episode, I'm sharing six ways you can overcome any feelings you have about not being 'enough' as a home educating parent. Not smart enough, organised enough, social enough, qualified enough...

    I wrote a post recently that started scratching at the surface of this. Today, we're digging deep.

  • Your Child Is Falling Behind
    Jun 29 2022

    In this episode I'm talking more about something this podcast was literally born from: the idea of children falling behind where they should be.

    First, I talk about how the world generally views progress in childhood, and why it’s so problematic and broken. And then second, I present a different view of that. A different idea of measurement and benchmarking and progress for our children.

    Wherever you are in your journey right now, I hope this way of looking at things brings you and your children some comfort, some reassurance, and some *confidence*.

Best Home Education Conversation

Pure love and grounded wisdom/advice. Absolutely necessary to hear. Reminds us what's real and worthwhile--and that it's different for everyone. <3

Absolute Game Changer

The understanding of what education is, both at home and in a public school setting has given me a lot of perspective. Izzy has created a refreshing, insightful, and calming podcast. I leave each episode inspired to help guide my kids along their educational journey in new ways. This is the best podcast I have ever had the pleasure of investing my time in.

Just Thank You

I can't even begin to explain how much I needed and appreciate this podcast. The conversations I feel like I have been having with you every morning the last 2 weeks while I have binged every episode, have been some of the most eye opening and encouraging parts of our journey. So thank you sir. 😊
