Radical Learning

“Before Deeply Deschooling, I was trapped in fear - terrified that I was making horrible decisions about my children’s education and would spend the rest of my life regretting them. Now? I know I’m on the right path. Deeply Deschooling helped me get crystal clear on why we are unschooling. I no longer need certainty about the future, because I’m grounded in the certainty of my values and intuition. This program gave me the courage to stop dancing around the edges and finally claim unschooling. I’m no longer in the contemplative phase - I’ve taken the dive. And it’s revolutionary. Sari and Becka have been the midwives of our unschooling lives. They’ve asked the hard questions with tremendous tenderness, always holding space for us as parents while centering the needs of our children. Their guidance is fierce, vulnerable, deeply human - and filled with love. The container they created was absolutely magical. From the beginning, our group felt held by a brave, intimate community of parents. That feeling of being truly seen helped me trust my own knowing. This program didn’t just give me tools - it gave me the support I needed to use them. In our family, we’ve stopped swinging wildly between rigid control and chaos. We’ve learned to slow down, to pause before reacting, to stay curious instead of judgmental. And most importantly, I’ve worked hard to make sure fear is no longer in the driver’s seat. The biggest takeaway for me? Community is everything. When I’m supported by voices I trust, I can trust myself and my kids more fully. Deeply Deschooling has helped me meet one of the most important challenges of my life with my values intact - with courage, with presence, and with valor. From the top, middle, and bottom of my heart: thank you.”

“What I loved about this program is that no matter how long you've been on the journey of deschooling, this program can expand your understanding and challenge you to evaluate even more how our world oppresses young people. Becka and Sari bring their wealth of knowledge and expertise to facilitate these sessions with vulnerability and intentionality. I have my own children and also work in an SDE space and this program was beneficial for me in thinking about my role in both realms. I feel like Deeply Deschooling has given me more tools and understanding of my own triggers and my childhood. All the young people in my care will be affected by my ability to think better about myself and the young people as we live life together!”

“Before Deeply Deschooling I was struggling with trusting the self-directed education process; not fully understanding the extent of deschooling; lacking in community/people to talk with around it. Hearing others' perspectives has been really helpful, as well as the always deep and pertinent insights from Sari and Becka. I feel more grounded in this space and in my body in relation to this work. The specific tools we worked with around connecting somatically to important words/concepts was especially meaningful and helpful. I now feel like I have a stronger commitment and awareness of trusting this process in my body.”

“Before joining the Deeply Deschooling program, I struggled with pushing myself and my son to do too much - trying to do everything, all at once. This space helped me see and accept the wisdom of letting go. It reminded me that parenting isn’t just about responsibility - it’s also an invitation to be curious and joyful. Since March, I’ve become more confident in setting boundaries and giving myself the space I need. That shift has made it easier for me to support my son when things don’t go as planned. I can now process my emotions in a way that feels healthier for both of us. One of the most important things I take away from this program is the experience of being in a space where I don’t have to mask - where I can be vulnerable without fear of being targeted. Becka and Sari guide with so much love and openness. The support they provide is truly amazing. This program has helped me through one of the most challenging years of my life. There isn’t one single story I can point to - rather, it’s the cumulative impact. The friendships, the reflection, the support - they’ve helped me see where I am and how I’m growing. I’ve started interacting differently with my family of origin, and I now feel more rooted in appreciation and growth. My curiosity and courage have been nurtured, and in turn, my family is reaping the rewards. I’m so grateful for this program. Thank you for creating this beautiful garden - and for showing us how to plant and tend to our own. Your transparency, laughter, and grace are a gift.”

I'm so grateful to finally have had the opportunity to experience true vulnerability, authenticity, curiosity, diversion, creativity and infinite play!

“I feel so incredibly grateful for all of the things I've learned from you and all the support I've gotten through the Deeply Deschooling coaching program. It has been tremendously helpful. I can see where I used to be, and where I am now, and it's such a different place. The deschooling work is so radical and requires so much courage that if I hadn't had all that support, I wouldn't have been in a good place right now. But I am because of everything I've learned! Thank you so much!”
