As a working mom, homeschooling seemed way too overwhelming and scary to take on until Covid mandates tipped the scale. On this episode, Carol Bowles helps explain aspects of home schooling that can empower families to design an educational approach that integrates with their whole family's lifestyle....and most of all, unlocks the innate pleasure of learning!

Carol holds a Master's Degree in Education from the University of California Santa Cruz, and a CA Multiple-Subject Teacher Credential. She has been teaching in public and private schools since 2001, including teaching children and teenagers with special needs, teaching reading intervention, 2nd grade, teaching art to students in grades K-12, and being a consultant at a public school home-based independent study program.  She is also the co-founder of the homeschool program Acton Academy Santa Cruz.

Carol was homeschooled for a time herself as a child, and when traditional school wasn't working for her own three children, she began homeschooling them as well.  It's been 12 years since she began her journey as a homeschool parent, and she has never looked back.  She wants families to experience the freedom and benefits of home-education, living and learning in a way that is meaningful and engaging to them, without having to fit into a prescribed box of someone else's choosing.
