Walking away from Public Schooling with Mandy Davis of HomeBuilt Education

It’s 2023, and public schools are in a downward spiral. For many parents, covid was the catalyst that woke up a deep-seated desire to take back responsibility for our children’s educational and emotional well-being. But is homeschooling really the answer to a broken system? Can we really meet all of our kids’ needs inside the four walls of our home?

 

Today’s podcast guest says, yes! A quality education might be more accessible than you think. Meet Mandy Davis, a former elementary school principal turned homemaker, homeschooler, and homesteader. Together we talk about our experiences with the public school system and its inability to serve kids that don’t fit the mold due to neurodiversity and learning styles. We touch on some hot topics like parental consent, informal education, child-led learning, and more! 

 

If you’re considering homeschooling or want to know what it looks like when you take charge of your kids’ education, check out Mandy’s free resources on her website and tune in to today’s episode! 

“When I sat down with my husband to figure out that plan, it was not a plan without sacrifice because we were going from two incomes to a single income. It was, ‘This is going to be worth it because it's the life we want to live, and I'm okay giving up these other things.’ I wanted to find that peace and joy in my own home.” - Mandy Davis, HomeBuilt Education
