Description

With the start of the school year just around the corner, a
new episode of the Raising Me podcast dives into a topic many parents are curious about—but may be hesitant to explore: homeschooling.


In this week’s episode, host Adrienne Stein sits down with Brooke Thompson, a homeschooling expert and mother of six, who shares her
personal journey and professional insights as the President of HAVEN Homeschool Collective and the Vice-President of Maine Home Education Alliance. The conversation covers the basics of homeschooling—how it works, why some families choose it, and where to even begin if you're considering the path yourself.


Thompson shares the joys, challenges, and misconceptions of homeschooling, offering guidance for parents who may be simply curious,
overwhelmed, or just looking to better understand the growing number of
families who take education into their own hands.


Whether you're seriously considering homeschooling, mildly curious, or just want to know what it’s really like behind the scenes, this episode provides valuable perspective and practical advice.
