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 realized I wanted to keep my kids out of the school system. I thought homeschoolers were weird and spent their days sewing and whittling. Could I blend our world with homeschooling? Would my kids resent me for missing out on traditional experiences like the prom and football games?
I didn’t know, so I set out on a mission to learn from the experts.
I began my podcast interviewing homeschooling families so I could explore all the ways people are homeschooling, breaking free from the confines of cubicles and classrooms to embrace a life of freedom and curiosity. This journey has been life changing and led me to leave my 16-year government career to fully embrace the homeschooling lifestyle.. and I want to help you do the same!
Join me on this exciting journey as I interview seasoned homeschoolers, uncover creative approaches, and share what I’m learning along the way!
