Every family is its own ecosystem.
We’re not just supporting individual young people, we’re navigating relationships, rhythms, needs, and tensions across an entire family system. And often, what shapes a young person most isn’t what we say, but how we live alongside one another.
This conversation explores what it means to really understand your family dynamics – not as something to “fix,” but something to notice, work with, and evolve over time. Because when we begin to see the patterns in our homes more clearly, we can start to make small, meaningful shifts that support everyone.

Advisor & Guide
Kristen Himm spent nearly 20 years as a public school teacher before flipping the script and jumping feet first into the wild, wonderful world of unschooling with her two endlessly curious young people (ages 13 and 9). Now a passionate advocate for self-directed learning, Kristen believes deeply in trusting kids to follow their curiosities—and as the founder of an agile learning center, she’s seen firsthand the magic that happens when we step back and let them lead.
Through podcast appearances, writing, coaching, and community building, Kristen helps families and educators rethink what learning can look like. Her specialties as a guide include neurodivergence; transitioning from conventional schooling to child-centered learning; helping reluctant partners recognize the benefits of SDE; deschooling; and facilitating effective communication within families.
