Listen "Alchemising Education - Leap Takers"
Episode Synopsis
What if the only thing standing between your child and a thriving education… is everything you were taught to believe about school?In this gutsy, permission-giving episode, QuantiMama Jodi and QuantiMama Kerri get honest about what it really took to become Leap Takers. They lay down the five biggest fears parents face when considering a shift—fears they know intimately because they’ve lived them: “I’m not qualified.” “What if my kid resists?” “What if I stuff it all up?”This is not a step-by-step how-to. It’s a balls-and-all invitation to reimagine parenting without outsourcing your power. To question the narrative that says stress is normal, resistance is defiance, and the curriculum is king.Along the way, they unpack:How to know if your child’s school resistance is actually a signal—not a flawWhat ‘uncoercible’ parenting looks like when no one’s watchingWhy socialisation is wildly misunderstood (and often overdone)How de-schooling isn’t just for kids—it’s a total parental mindset shiftAnd why starting before you're ready might just be the most honest move you makeThere’s no blueprint here—just a deep belief in the capacity of families to course-correct. And a loving reminder: You’re not alone. This path might be non-linear, but it’s faarking worth it.If your inner knowing’s been nudging you toward something else, hit play.
