This was such a super fun chat! We had some great conversations and laughed a lot!
Marta talks about unschooling her 3 young people (two of whom are now adults!) and about the most common questions she has received about unschooling and home education.
This is a great convo for anyone starting out with unschooling and having all the absolutely normal doubts and wobbles that come with it.
