What if education wasn’t about grades or transcripts—but about becoming the kind of person who can figure it out? In this powerful and timely episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Matt Beaudreau returns for a second time to help launch Ginny Yurich’s brand new book, Homeschooling: You’re Doing It Right Just by Doing It, which he proudly endorsed. Together, they dismantle the conveyor belt model of schooling and offer a radically freeing alternative: when parents grow, kids grow.
Matt shares stories of teens building real-world skills, chasing big goals, and thriving outside of traditional timelines—often without ever taking a test. He and Ginny explore meta-skills, modeling, self-reliance, boredom as a gift, and why success without peace is failure in disguise. This is not just a podcast episode—it’s a rallying cry for parents to trust themselves, grow boldly, and reclaim childhood.
