So much of rewilding is focused on questioning modern-day conventions, and reimagining life in ways that turn our assumptions upside down, allowing us to see things differently and live in ways that allow us to thrive. No where does this become more apparent then when we live within a different culture and are forced to examine our cultural assumptions on a daily basis.
In this episode, I interview Elizabeth Newcamp, co-host of the Slate podcast Mom and Dad are Fighting. Elizabeth shares her experience living three years in the Netherlands and how it deeply changed her as a parent. So much of discussing another culture involves examining our own, so this interview also centers on looking into our own cultural beliefs, particularly with regards to parenting. As a fellow homeschooling mom, Elizabeth also shares with us her homeschooling journey, and how it fundamentally changed based on her experiences abroad.
