I made something for you, [FIRST NAME GOES HERE]!

Hi Reader,

I’ve been thinking about you lately.

Not the big group of “you all,” but you, Reader — the parent who’s trying to make unschooling work in real life, with real kids, real doubts, and real fears that don’t always get said out loud.

Maybe it’s the time of year.
Maybe it’s the conversations I’ve been having.
But I keep picturing the two of us sitting at my kitchen table with something warm to drink, just talking through the thing that’s been making your shoulders tense up.

Because so many parents carry unschooling fears quietly:

“Am I doing enough —what about gaps?”
“Everyone else seems confident — why am I struggling?”
“My kids are so unmotivated — is this even going to work?”

And I want you to know something important:

Having these fears doesn’t mean you’re off track.
​It means you’re stepping out of old patterns and into a rhythm that actually fits your family.
And of course that feels wobbly sometimes — no one taught us how to do this.

So I created something new for you.

A Safe Place to Tell Me Your Biggest Unschooling Fear

I made a simple page on my website where you can share the worry you’ve been carrying. The one you haven’t said out loud yet.

I read every message personally — and I’ll point you toward your clearest next step.
Nothing big or overwhelming. Just the next thing that will help you breathe again.

You can share yours here:

When You Want to Talk It Through

Every December I open a limited number of Discounted Coaching Calls — 30 minutes, $50, and focused entirely on what’s happening in your home right now.

They’re perfect if you want:

• clarity heading into the new year
• reassurance about what’s working
• help untangling whatever’s felt heavy or confusing
• a moment to feel supported instead of overwhelmed
  ​

If that sounds right for you, you can grab a spot here, Reader:
