Reclaiming Childhood with Ainsley Arment

12 Aug 2026 · 36 min · S1 E69

Ainsley Arment is a homeschooling mom of 5 and founder of Wild + Free, a community of homeschool mothers who have banded together to offer their children not only a quality education, but also a childhood filled with adventure, freedom, and wonder. In this episode, Ainsley shares how she discovered that reclaiming childhood and preserving wonder does not take away from a child's education, but instead gives them a strong foundation for a lifetime of learning.
