We’re in the midst of a month-long throwback series centered on Normal Sucks by Jonathan Mooney… a powerful, neurodivergent-affirming book that challenges how we define success, intelligence, and worth. Over the next few weeks, we’ll revisit our favorite episodes unpacking big ideas from the book and what they mean for life, learning, and raising kids outside the norm. We’ll wrap it all up with an author Q&A you won’t want to miss. We hope you enjoy our discussion of this must-read title.

Let's continue the conversation on Patreon! We host live weekly meet-ups, affinity groups, and more! We can't wait to meet you.

We cracked open the Tuttle Twins books so you don’t have to. And wow... they’re somehow even worse than we imagined!!! Marketed as “secular” and “educational,” they’re actually a masterclass in fear-mongering, bias, and political propaganda dressed up as kid-friendly history. We pulled the most jaw-dropping quotes, unpacked the agendas (which are sometimes hidden and sometimes just smack you in the face), and confirmed without a doubt - hard pass.

This week we’re talking about something every homeschool parent eventually has to figure out… how to get a little time to yourself and still keep life running. We love being with our kids, but homeschooling means a lot of together time. Even the most devoted parent needs a breather now and then. We’re sharing the real-life ways we’ve managed alone time, tackled appointments, and kept up with day-to-day logistics while homeschooling full-time. From bartering kid swaps with friends to scaffolding independence, we’ve got ideas that work in different seasons of life, plus a healthy dose of honesty about what’s realistic (and what’s not).

In this episode, we dive into the messy, meaningful world of social-emotional learning (SEL) and what it actually looks like in a real-life, progressive homeschool. We’re not talking about boxed kindness worksheets or vague “be nice” mantras. This is about embedding emotional growth, empathy, and self-regulation into everyday moments. We share practical examples, helpful resources, and why SEL isn’t fluff… it’s foundational. Whether you’ve got littles just learning to name their feelings or teens navigating boundaries and big decisions, there’s something here for you.
