Checking In with Ayla Will: Homeschooling, Homesteading, and Raising Kids Outdoors

In this episode of Creative Mountain Mama, I check in with Ayla Will (@thewilldernessfamily) for a 30-minute conversation on life, parenting, and homesteading. We reflect on our last discussion about present fatherhood before diving into homeschooling in Canada, the realities of living in an RV while raising animals, and the beauty of being surrounded by family. Ayla shares how raising kids outdoors fosters greater productivity in their studies and why they choose to educate outside of traditional curriculum models. We also discuss the challenges of traveling with animals, what goes into training and selecting a new horse, and the joy of witnessing wild mustangs run. This episode is a refreshing glimpse into the ever-evolving journey of intentional, homestead-style living. Tune in for an inspiring update from Ayla and be sure to follow @thewilldernessfamily for more insights into their lifestyle.
