What does it truly mean to embrace radical parenting and homeschooling?

This week - we are the “guests” on our own podcast.

Katrina Bieler contacted us with a kind letter, and we said yes, asking us if she could ask us all her questions.

“Dear Cecilie & Jesper...

I want to thank you for your podcast. I am homeschooling my own children and feel a constant need to do so from the deepest truths, or I find myself in the false position of thinking of them as empty boxes I must fill with the "right" stuff. Your podcast, which is essentially listening to people discuss deep truths as they have discovered them inside of experience and attempted to remain true and abide by what they have seen, refreshes me again and again. I end up with a joyful feeling and enlivened after listening.

I would love to interview both of you sometime, as a homeschooler behind you on the path with many questions…”

We said yes :)

In our conversation, we delve into the importance of recognizing the inherent goodness of children and how this perspective can shift our values as parents.

We discuss the dangers of a school system that measures a child's worth by their accomplishments, as well as the challenges and rewards of homeschooling.

We hope our experiences will inspire you to reevaluate your own parenting journey and empower you to make radical choices for your family's well-being.

We also explore the concept of unschooling and the role of family values in our decision-making process. Addressing themes of forgiveness and understanding, we reflect on how our past experiences can shape our relationships with our children and our approach to education.

Join us in this insightful and heartwarming episode as we celebrate the power of radical parenting and homeschooling.

And thank you, Katrina, for all the great questions. It was a pleasure to be “on the other side of the mic.”

We want to do this again, so feel free to contact us if you are ready to ask us a lot of questions - we are ready to answer them - here on our podcast!
