Why Homeschooling Is Growing Faster Than Ever with Kami Wanous
Parents, what if the problem is not that children do not want to learn…
but that they are losing their love of learning?
In this episode, I sit down with homeschool mentor and former public school teacher Kami Wanous to discuss why more parents than ever are rethinking education and searching for a different path for their children.
Kami shares her journey from classroom teacher to homeschool mentor after realizing that many children were becoming disconnected from curiosity, creativity, and real learning inside traditional education systems.
We talk about:
- Why children naturally love learning at a young age
- How pressure and box checking can slowly damage curiosity
- The emotional struggles many parents face around school
- How homeschooling can strengthen family relationships
- Why lifelong learning matters more than grades
- How parents can become intentional leaders in their child’s education
Kami also shares the powerful story of how she almost destroyed her own son’s love of learning before discovering a completely different approach that changed everything.
This conversation is not about fear.
It is about awareness, intentional parenting, and raising young adults who know how to think, grow, and lead.
