In this episode, we play a lively round of “Keep or Toss?”—evaluating which elements of traditional public education are worth carrying into our homeschool spaces and which ones deserve a permanent spot in the recycling bin. From standardized tests and rigid schedules to desks, discipline charts, and one-size-fits-all curriculum, we dig into the parts of school that shaped us—for better or worse—and imagine what education could look like in a more thoughtful, inclusive, and learner-centered world.

*** Sincerest apologies. Amanda experienced some technical issues during recording and the quality of her audio isn't our typical level of awesomeness. We'll have it sorted by next week. Promise!

In this episode, we dive into what homeschooling can look like during the summer months — from year-round schooling models to using summer learning as a way to travel during the off-season, avoid extreme weather, or keep a steady rhythm that prevents the dreaded "summer slide." We also explore how summer can be the perfect time to follow your child’s interests, try out new subjects, and keep education feeling fresh and flexible. Whether you're looking for a break, a boost, or a balance, we cover all the creative ways homeschooling families make summer work for them.

Can you really homeschool and work at the same time? In this episode, we break down the realities behind that loaded question—from juggling Zoom calls with snack time to navigating privilege, burnout, and the myth of “doing it all.” Whether you're freelancing during naps, working outside the home, or somewhere in between, we’ve got honest takes, real strategies, and zero judgment. Spoiler: it’s messy, but you’re not alone.
