The Life Without School Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I can’t praise this podcast enough for the knowledge and empowerment it has given me. I am fresh on this journey but couldn’t deny that I was incredibly unfulfilled in my life calling of being a mom. When I sat down and figured out what I really wanted, pair that with the issues my kids were having in school, I realized what I wanted was to have better relationships with them and see them succeed and have joy; and be part of it. This podcast has put paint to the picture I was already seeing unfold in my kids lives. It is everything I needed to hear at the exact time I needed to hear it. Izzy is absolutely inspired and I am so grateful. This podcast has given me the tools to believe in myself, my kids and break the societal norm. Good stuff.

Every time I listen I learn something new and feel privileged to home educate. I feel less guilt and anxiety about failing my child. It provokes introspection and encourages me to get curious. I just need you in my ear at all times.

Our son is 5.5 and is still attending pre-school, but we plan to unschool and this podcast has been a lifeline in validating our decision to pursue life without formal schooling. I find myself, time and time again, nodding along, like, yes, Yes, YES! The host touches on so many reasons why we want to choose this path and offers well-formed ideas and well-researched points as to why we want to stick with this path. Keep up the great work, Issy. Your work has been invaluable to our family already, and we are only just beginning our unschooling journey!

I can’t say enough about this podcast! Full of wisdom, practical tips, and boldness to follow your own path vs. the expectations of the society!
