Do you want your kids to love learning—and become independent, capable adults who can handle life?
Most parents want extraordinary results but stick to ordinary systems. In this video, Greg & Rachel explain why comfortable, convenient methods don’t produce extraordinary results and why true education is lighting a fire, not filling a bucket. You’ll see how to expand beyond the home with worldschooling and real-world experiences, use modern tools for a world-class education, and reclaim both influence and joy in your family culture.
Key Takeaways
✅ Method determines outcome—change methods to change results.
✅ Worldschooling turns lessons into experiences kids never forget.
✅ Raise independent thinkers through self-directed learning.
✅ Time with your kids = influence (quantity and quality).
✅ Use AI/online platforms to access the best teachers on earth.
✅ Save “academic rigor” for the right season—after love of learning ignites.
