029 – S1 E28 – How might we raise our children to lead their lives as the protagonists of their own stories?

homeroom is an international podcast bridging the education gap between the classroom and the living room by starting conversations impacting the next generation. In this episode, I speak with Christine, a storytelling consultant, educator, and thus unsurprisingly, a voracious reader—about her journey from attending a Swiss boarding school, attending university in the United States, and raising her children in The Netherlands. We talk about how life on the road had impacted her sense of identity, and what she did to reclaim her story as its protagonist.
