About this episode

Sam Sorbo discusses the implications of homeschooling and preparing children for adulthood with host Ginny.

International fashion model, actress, author, and educational freedom advocate Sam Sorbo joins Ginny for a wide-ranging conversation about homeschooling, parenting, and what it really means to prepare a child for adulthood. Sam shares how a family trip to Hawaii first caused her to question traditional schooling and ultimately led her family into home education. Together, Sam and Ginny explore why homeschooling may be far less complicated than parents fear, the importance of protecting a child’s natural curiosity, and the freedom that comes from letting kids develop on their own timelines. They also look beyond the K–12 years, challenging the assumption that college must automatically come next. From entrepreneurship and early work experience to building a family economy, they discuss helping young adults discover their strengths and step meaningfully into the real world. It’s a bold, thought-provoking conversation about education, faith, family, legacy, and having the courage to reconsider the path everyone else is taking.
