Cue the Kleenexes! Yikes! I let the struggle out of the bag! But Praise God for the massive action and energy He employed to get me through the most terrifying season thus far since building our microschool.
In this episode, I share the personal journey I undertook while setting up my micro school to grow, . Amidst struggles with my daughter's health, logistical issues, fear of failure and running a household all at once, God helped us get through this hard season and we emerged victoriously.
I highlight my darkest hours, and talk about the barrage of challenges that made my journey overwhelmingly strenuous. However, God gave me an unwavering spirit and faith that fueled this endeavor, eventually leading to the launch of our transformative platform, Microschool Masterminds.
My 40th birthday coincides with the accomplishment of another dream for us as a community of microschool builders, making this episode particularly touching. My aim is to motivate others to overcome their struggles and make their dreams of starting a successful micro school a reality.
Join in to hear a story of resilience, strength, and the power of determination in making dreams come true.

It’s time to ReDream Education!
My name is Makenzie Oliver. Microschool founder, VELA connector, educator, coach, and believer in the power of starting small, dreaming boldly, and rebuilding the future of education one courageous step at a time.
If you're here, it's because something in your life, your classroom, your family, your child, or your community, is asking for a new dream. A wiser dream. A ReDream. With ReDream Education, we challenge the old models, we rethink what learning can be, and we build innovative pathways for children, families, and communities.
In this weekly podcast, in our Facebook group, in our blog, and in our membership program, you will will gain systems, strategies, stories, and soul work you need to design personalized learning, understand how education is changing for the better, start or scale a micro-school, lead with confidence, make a change for your family, and create an education model that actually works for today's world; because you aren't just dreaming of something different - you are building it.
This is a place where we reinvision what school can be, reimagine how children learn, and rebuild the systems that were never designed to meet the needs of our future and current generation. With ReDream Education, we share insights, strategies, stories, and tools to teach our children better, transform learning at home, support innovative education models, and invest financially or personally in the future of students everywhere.
Because you aren't just dreaming about a better education, you are part of the movement to create.
This is where the future begins.
