In this powerful segway episode, Alaine and Victoria lay the spiritual and cultural foundation for an upcoming series on education. This conversation isn’t just about homeschooling, it’s about hearing God on how to educate, steward, and protect the next generation.

Together, they dive into the biblical blueprint for education, the Hebrew meaning behind parenting, the story of Daniel, and the rise of homeschooling among Black families. This episode challenges parents, aunties, guardians, and spiritual mamas to ask a deeper question: “God, how do YOU want my child educated?”

Whether your children are in public, private, or home education, this episode invites you to rethink legacy, identity, and obedience.
