À propos de ce contenu audio

 The Exploring Unschooling Podcast began at the beginning of 2016 when Pam released episode EU001: What is Unschooling? 10 Years! And 400 Episodes! To celebrate these huge milestones, we are looking back and reflecting this month. In Part 1 of our celebration, Pam, Anna, and Erika explore the question of what we’ve learned on our unschooling journeys in the past 10 years. It was a very fun question to explore and we really enjoyed digging into all of our answers. We talked about how living consensually is really about where we choose to direct our energy, how there’s no such thing as a perfect unschooler (or a perfect parent!), and how independence is not a good measure of unschooling or parenting success. These were all huge paradigm shifts for us over time that have proven to be so valuable. We thank you so much for being a part of our Exploring Unschooling community and hope you find our conversation helpful on your unschooling journey and in your relationships! THINGS WE MENTION IN THIS EPISODE We invite you to join us in The Living Joyfully Network, a wonderful online community for parents to connect and engage in candid discussions about living and learning through the lens of unschooling. Come and be part of the conversation! Sign up to our mailing list on Substack to receive our email newsletters as well as new articles about learning, parenting, and so much more! Watch the video of our conversation on YouTube. Follow @pamlaricchia on Instagram and Facebook. Check out our website, livingjoyfully.ca for more information about navigating relationships and exploring unschooling. So much of what we talk about on this podcast and in the Living Joyfully Network isn’t actually about unschooling. It’s about life. On The Living Joyfully Podcast, Anna Brown and Pam Laricchia talk about life, relationships, and parenting. You can check out the archive here, or find it in your your favorite podcast player. EPISODE TRANSCRIPT PAM: Hello, everyone! I’m Pam Laricchia from Living Joyfully and I am joined by my co-hosts Anna Brown and Erika Ellis. Hello and welcome, everyone, to episode 400 of the Exploring Unschooling podcast. This year also marks 10 years since I started the podcast. The first episode went out January 10th, 2016 and it all just feels a little surreal yet meaningful for me. And not so much in that celebratory, look how long we’ve been doing this, yay! That is very cool. But in the more reflective sense that 10 years really is a good chunk of time, right? Enough time for thoughts and ideas to grow and change, to strengthen and wither. And so, in the last month or so, I’ve become quite curious about exploring this more deeply. When I eventually shared my thoughts about it with Anna and Erika, hello internal processor, they were so very supportive and happy to dive into this reflection alongside me, for which I am forever grateful. You guys are amazing teammates, thank you so very much. And I just wanted to share, Anna first appeared on the podcast in episode 4, the very first roundtable episode that we had, and Erika began listening in the early days, first appearing on the podcast in 2019 to talk about unschooling book clubs. And then in October 2022, they both officially became podcast co-hosts. So, coming back to now, rather than doing a retrospective or greatest hits episode, as I was trying to think what to do for 400, we decided to use this anniversary, 10 years and 400 episodes, as a chance to pause and just ask ourselves a few simple, but at least what feel to me, meaningful questions. What have we learned over the past decade? What has changed? And what still matters? So, over the next three episodes, the three of us are going to explore those questions together. Now if you’ve been listening to the podcast for a while, you know that we don’t share our thoughts as experts with answers, but just as thoughtful and curious people who’ve lived this lifestyle with our families for many, many years and have participated in conversations in this sphere for a long time. The podcast continues because we enjoy sharing our experiences, the ideas that resonate with us, and the patterns that we’ve noticed. And if you’re new here, welcome! We now have a rich archive of 400 episodes for you to explore. The content is timeless and evergreen with a wide variety of formats from interviews with unschooling parents, to Q&A’s answering listener questions, to me sharing my published articles and conference talks that I’ve written, to ongoing series exploring things like unschooling stumbling blocks and the so-called “unschooling rules” that can trip people up as they embark on this amazing journey. So, in this first 10-year anniversary episode we are starting our reflection with the question, what have we learned? Would you like to get us started Anna? ANNA: I would! But oh my gosh, I’m glad we’re going to be talking and reflecting for the whole month, because ...
