In this episode of Clear & On Purpose, Christina sits down with Kelly Edwards, homeschooling mama and business owner, to explore a more intentional and child-led approach to learning. Kelly shares her journey from 'accidental homeschooler' to creating a framework called the 90-Minute School Day, designed to help parents deschool themselves, support their children’s learning, and build confidence in their parenting.

We discuss:

  • How to create a homeschool environment rooted in relationship, curiosity, and trust.
  • Balancing homeschooling with running a business or pursuing personal passions.
  • Supporting neurodivergent children while prioritizing emotional regulation for the whole family.
  • Why following a child’s interests can cultivate independence, self-trust, and lifelong learning skills.
  • Practical tips for integrating learning into everyday life, from reading aloud to experiential activities.

This episode is perfect for parents who are homeschooling, considering it, or looking for ways to foster confidence, curiosity, and self-directed learning in their children—while maintaining their own balance and well-being.

Kelly Edwards The 90-Minute School Day

Kelly Edwards is the founder of The 90-Minute School Day, a framework that helps parents transition from a school-based mindset to natural learning. She helps families create a thriving homeschool by prioritizing felt-safety, connection, self-awareness, while honoring biological rhythms and neurodivergence. Through her Day in the Life community, Guide Training program, and The 90-Minute School Day podcast, Kelly supports parents in unlearning school-based conditioning, trusting natural learning, and redefining success by focusing on strengths, not setbacks. A wife and long-time homeschooling parent of three girls, she is also a parent coach, educator, and trauma-informed foster care advocate. Learn more at 90minuteschoolday.com.
