Missy is a mom to two, writer, and self-directed education advocate.
As a trained teacher, she imagined a life devoted to traditional education, but in 2007 she moved away from the standardized schooling model with her own kids and hasn’t looked back.
Let ‘em go Barefoot is the community and podcast she created to share stories, insights and research on conscious parenting and education. Her work has reached hundreds of thousands of people across the globe. What has emerged is a felt sense that we are in the midst of a Great Educational Awakening.
Missy is currently collaborating with another veteran unschooling mom, Ann Hansen of Inner Parent Coaching, to create a supportive community for the next generation of unschooling parents.
A foundational principle of their work is: The Future of Education is not in the Classroom

This is the second time Missy has been featured on my podcast. (She has also co-hosted excellent conversations in my Homeschool Club)
I wanted to bring her back on the show to hear her perspective on unschooling through the years. Her oldest is now an adult and her youngest is in her teens. (I suggest you listen to her first interview to hear more about her background in education and their unschooling beginning).
In this episode we explored the many layers of unschooling, learning and parenting.
You can reach Missy through Let Em Go Barefoot on social media and her website.
