Interviews with Homeschoolers

Behind The Mic

Hi, I’m Cheryl—your fellow conspiracy-loving mama who firmly believes the government has no place in raising my kids.

Here’s the kicker: I had zero experience with homeschooling when I decided I didn’t want to send my kids to traditional school! So I set out on a mission to learn from the experts.

After leaving a 16-year career in government, I began exploring all the ways families are homeschooling, breaking free from the confines of cubicles and classrooms to embrace a life of freedom and curiosity.

Join me on this exciting journey as I interview seasoned homeschoolers, uncover creative approaches, and share what I’m learning along the way!

Testimonials

"I love how she is delving into how education in a public setting is making a lot of people question its methods and that homeschooling can be a viable option for people, and has so much to offer families. I myself was homeschooled. Growing up, our parents were looked down on, it is so nice to see the podcast showcase how many people have been happy with their choice to homeschool."

"This has been the most useful podcast! Questions you’ve asked are exactly what I had in my head. The the noise of people around me who just don’t get it yet, doesn’t bother me as much, as I’m learning through you and your guests about all this! Thank you so much for doing this!."

"A perfect podcast for those exploring a homeschooling journey. Every episode is packed full of resources! So many families have been forced by the government to homeschool. Get prepared now before the woke corruption comes to your school!"

"Great podcast for parents who want more info on whether homeschooling is a good option for you or not. Crazy to see how different each state operates. Thanks Cheryl for putting in the work for us."

"Love this podcast! The conversations are great. I’ve been going back and forth for some time now about whether or not I want to homeschool. My husband is also listening with me and open minded now! You’re giving such good insight! Keep going🙌🏼❤️"

"Very informative and the host has a smooth, educated voice with great insight and questions. She actually sounds just like Megyn Kelly! Very professional."

"I love this podcast so far. I’ve learned so much from listening as I get other stuff done. I am about to start homeschooling my oldest as he is turning 5, so this is perfect for me at this time. Excited for more episodes!"
