AI is replacing the very jobs we’ve always raised our children to aim for. In this urgent episode, I unpack where AI is at right now, what the next decade might look like, and how we can prepare our children for a future more different than we can imagine.
We’ll look at what most people actually need maths for, how numeracy develops without school, how quickly kids can catch up later, and why the data shows the school system isn’t delivering the results we think it is.

If you’ve ever wrestled with whether or not you have what it takes to give your home educated kids everything they need, this episode will change the way you see that question - and help you FINALLY let it go.
That creeping doubt - Are we doing enough? - never really goes away. This episode breaks down exactly why we feel it, what we usually get wrong when we try to answer it, and what to look for instead. A grounded, science-backed guide to finally knowing what “enough” actually looks like.
When home education feels harder than it should, it’s often these six traits running the show. Here’s how to recognise and shift them.
A real-world look at how we’re guiding our 5, 10, 15, and 17 year olds through life without school - what we’re coaching on, what’s working, what’s still messy, and how our role shifts as they grow.
