Ep 10 Pt 2: Felicity Harber — Focus on What Your Kid Needs (It’s That Simple!)
In my conversation with Felicity Harber on the Fearless Homeschool podcast, we dive deep into what it really means to customise your homeschool to fit your child—not the other way around. ✨🎧 Felicity shares how blending different philosophies has helped her meet her son’s unique learning needs—and how letting go of traditional, top-down teaching methods opened up space for real growth. (Spoiler: standing at the kitchen table like a schoolteacher didn’t quite go to plan. 😅) We also explore the transition from school to homeschool, navigating life on the road, and adjusting to a child’s evolving needs—whether that’s more structure, more freedom, or a mix of both. From embracing child-led learning and celebrating effort over grades, to finding inspiration in resources like The Brave Learner by Julie Bogart, this episode is packed with reflections, real-life examples, and a few laughs along the way. 📚🚐🌱 If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s okay to ditch the system and follow your kid’s lead… this one’s for you. 💛 Here’s where to find more about Flick and the Fearless Homeschool Podcast: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/homeschool.adventures.aus Fearless Homeschool Podcast: https://fearlesshomeschool.com/fearless-homeschool-podcast/
