S5: Conversation 1 || Raising Humans and Raising Ourselves with Elayna & Marissa

from Everything is Learning · host Everything is Learning

Elayna and Marissa are back for a new season, diving into a question we all think we understand but rarely stop to ask, “What does it really mean to raise humans?” Raising humans isn’t just about guiding children, it’s about confronting ourselves, our beliefs, our habits, and the things we were taught to accept without ever choosing them.In this episode, they unpack the visible and invisible weight of parenting: the expectations we carry, the patterns we repeat, and the ones we’re brave enough to break. They explore how raising humans isn’t just about learning more, it’s about unlearning what no longer serves us, especially outdated ideas about obedience, success, and the myth that compliance equals good parenting.What if raising humans could look different? What if curiosity mattered more than perfection, and connection more than control?Together Marissa and Elayna challenge expectations created by others and actively talk about how to create a different way for their humans, themselves, and others that is something more intentional and authentic. They reimagine education, question traditional milestones, and explore ways to find joy in the middle of everything, because joy doesn’t come after everything is figured out it exists within the mess. This conversation is about growth for all of us and for the humans we’re raising. Because raising humans also means raising ourselves.So if you’ve ever questioned the “right way” to raise yourself or others, if you’ve ever felt the pull to do things differently, or are simply figuring it out as you go this is for you! #newseason #new #newpodcast #listening #podcasters #podcasthost #parenting #raisinghumans #family #children #podcast #fun #sisters #siblings #unlearning #learning #funny #curiosity #love #fyp #learn #school #education #mentalhealth #neurodivergent #nd #neurodiversity #brain #parents #parent #everythingislearning
