In this special kid’s POV edition of the podcast, Asher and I take listeners inside our homeschooling world. We’re about to begin year four of this unexpected homeschooling journey, and after much trial and error, we’ve found our rhythm and flow (for now) for what works best in our school.

In this episode, Asher and I talk about the transition into homeschooling, what works and what doesn’t, how Asher really feels about being homeschooling, how we co-designed our school, and what a typical day looks like for us. Asher also shares his thoughts on how our relationship has changed as a result of our homeschooling dynamic.
