Becoming a parent + unschooling my children are probably two of the most life-changing decisions I have made in my entire adult life. I grew up in a fundamentalist Christian home and was disconnected from my body since childhood. I didn’t want to parent my kids from a disembodied state and with power-over parenting strategies. I learned quickly from my children about their innate body wisdom. And this radical idea that they are people too, and deserve my respect and trust like adults do. I learned to trust myself and my body, especially after birthing these humans into the world, one at home. I learned to trust the Process, the Universe, God in a different way than I did growing up. I learned to really listen underneath the fear so I can come back to love, always. I learned to trust my kids. I consider embodied parenting & self-directed education as two of my main spiritual & embodiment practices. My kids have been some of my greatest teachers in life.
