Y’all know that Michaeleen Doucleff is my favorite. Her book, Hunt, Gather, Parent, has become a must-read for my Mastermind parents. Since we first connected we’ve spent hours, on and off the mic, vibing and swapping parenting stories. One story I’ve been dying to get more detail about is the decision Michaeleen made to start a whole school out of her house! It’s a remarkable tale of agency, confidence, and a mama knowing what’s best for her kiddo. I guarantee you’ll find it fascinating.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What makes a mom and journalist with no teaching experience decide to build a learning experience for her daughter.
• Why the way schools teach is so much more important than what they teach.
• How a school that doesn’t match your kids' needs can be so bad for their interest in learning.
• The mindset that makes it possible to trust ourselves with something as important as providing the education our kids need.

And much more!
