Unschooling our Kids with Leah McDermott from Your Natural Learner

Welcome back to the show! Today, I’m excited to introduce a special guest, Leah McDermott, known to many of you as @yournaturallearner on Instagram. Leah was one of the first voices in the unschooling community that I followed, and I’ve been looking forward to this conversation for a long time.In this episode, Leah and I discuss our journeys from traditional educational systems to embracing a more natural, child-led approach to learning. We share a unique perspective on unschooling—not just as an alternative to homeschooling, but as a mindset, a lifestyle, and a complete paradigm shift in how we view education, learning, and childhood itself.We delve into the challenges and rewards of moving away from rigid schooling structures, the profound realizations that come with choosing to unschool, and the transformative impact it has on both children and parents. We also address some tough topics, such as the restrictive nature of conventional education, the obstacles to making unschooling more accessible, and why it's so important to rethink what learning truly means.Join us as we explore the beautiful, sometimes challenging, but ultimately rewarding journey of raising curious, empowered learners in a world that often pushes for conformity. Whether you’re just beginning to question traditional schooling or are already well into the unschooling path, this episode is for you!Follow Lead McDermott on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yournaturallearnerFREE Unschooling Resources:👉 Take the Quiz: What’s Your Homeschooling Superpower? https://thesereveries.com/quiz👉 10 Simple Ways to Connect With Your Child https://thesereveries.com/10-simple-ways-to-connect-with-your-child 👉 Is Unschooling Right For Me? https://thesereveries.com/is-unschooling-right-for-me-guide Stay Connected With These Reveries with Adrienne Miller: Instagram | Pinterest | Facebook | Youtube | TikTok
