Wild Life Unschooling

<p>After a few months of traveling and searching for my own spark, I’m back with an episode that felt like a missing puzzle piece: a deep dive with <strong>Jacky Herder</strong>, the powerhouse founder of <strong>People for People</strong> in Madeira. Jacky shares her incredible journey from DDR roots and "fear coaching" to building a global village where kids actually lead their own learning… proving that when we stop trying to "fix" our children and start deschooling our own systemic fears, true freedom begins. We’re talking about breaking the cycle of "stupid-making" systems and rediscovering the unique gifts our kids were born with, so grab a coffee (and maybe some tissues) for this one. AND SORRY FOR THE LACK OF QUALITY :D my mic decided to drop out. </p> <p>Also check out these ressources! </p> <p>>>> <a href="https://www.peopleforpeople.net/">https://www.peopleforpeople.net/</a></p> <p>>>> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/people4people.official">https://www.instagram.com/people4people.official</a></p>

<p>This time, I wasn't the host, but the guest at Dr. Fernando Morales' podcast: Have you ever questioned whether conventional education truly prepares children for life? In this episode, Alex shares her radical journey from traditional classrooms in Germany to a life of freedom, self-discovery, and jungle experiences. Her story will leave you questioning what it really means to raise a generation capable of thinking for themselves and exploring beyond the limits of the school and social system.</p> <p>From her decision to unschool her child amidst an oppressive system, to how Bitcoin and psychedelics helped her find her authentic purpose, Alex reveals the keys to living with purpose and freedom in an increasingly uncertain world. Discover the frameworks that guided her path, how she faced the fear of being seen as a criminal for fighting for her family's autonomy, and how exploration in the jungle taught her lessons no classroom could offer.</p>

<p>I've been a huge fan of Fernando's work for quite some time - Bitcoiner, homeschooler, awesome dude!

<p>Tom Arnold, a cybersecurity expert, is highlighting a critical gap in education: cybersafety for kids! We all know, that most schools fail to educate kids on the very important things, for example cyber security. With the latest discussions about all the perverts on Roblox, the question is really: is there a way to keep kids safe in the online environment, do we have to take away their independence and fun?</p> <p>I explore this realm with Tom, who wrote a kid’s book on cybersecurity – „The Digital Detective: <a href="https://a.co/d/7ddvRfC">https://a.co/d/7ddvRfC</a>“ - after his son was approached by a creep on Roblox. Tom is a lecturer at San Jose State and UNLV, co-founder of a company acquired by NCC Group, and Operations Manager at Cloud 10 Studios, and he shares his wisdom about how to empower kids to handle online threats. We talk about red flags, why it’s difficult to create a profile of the average predator online, and so much more.</p> <p>Enjoy <3</p> <p>Check out my partner The Bitcoin Way: The Bitcoin Way provides expert guidance on Bitcoin self-custody, personal cybersecurity, and Plan B residency to empower you with all the tools you need to live a truly sovereign life.

<p>We've all been conditioned to see time as a race, a resource we’re constantly running out of. But what if that’s a lie? In this episode, I dive into how school programs us to live by the clock, disconnects us from our natural rhythms, and keeps us in a cycle of stress and scarcity. I share my own journey of unlearning this mindset, breaking free from productivity guilt, and finally living in flow. Plus, thoughts on unschooling, meditation, and how my kid naturally learned English without formal lessons :)</p> <p>Forget the factory whistle, let’s reclaim our time - and don't forget to join me at <a href="https://freethm.com/">Freeth'm</a>! ;)</p>

<p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/keye-martin-9746645b/">⁠Keye Martin⁠</a>, independent mathematician and <a href="https://keye.substack.com/p/things-i-meant-to-say">⁠writer⁠</a> - I stumbled upon his work on LinkedIn, and immediately thought, I need more of him: "I’m writing this for my students, some of which are probably wondering where the fuck I went. On Monday October 2, a little while before my first class, two people came to my office and said that I was being placed on administrative leave due to complaints that my manner of communication was “unprofessional”." What inspired me, is the fact, that someone so fcking intelligent is being called "unprofessional" - because I have been there, I'm the "unprofessional" one, and I really wanted to talk to another "unprofessional" ;)</p> <p>And this is how it started, just fyi, as Keye mentions this conversation at the end of the podcast:</p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAADC0uloBDLGgSkUhIM5CYzloV9YBZYcjV4s">Alex Ko</a> 12:53 PM</p> <p>Hey Keye, Alex here regarding the unschooling podcast :)</p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAAy7vmgBw9efkVwX-KiFABw9QmQ5bRY2Izc">Keye Martin</a> 12:35 AM</p> <p>Cool. Questions about your podcast:<br /> 1) Is your podcast an absolute free speech zone?<br /> 2) Do you stream video or only audio?<br /> 3) Do you edit episodes before posting them?<br /> 4) Is it possible to describe what "unschooling" is in a few simple sentences?<br /> 5) Can you send me a link to an episode of yours that you think is "representative" i.e. it doesn't have to be the "best" or the "worst" but just something that conveys the vibe.</p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAADC0uloBDLGgSkUhIM5CYzloV9YBZYcjV4s">Alex Ko</a> 9:31 AM</p> <p>1. yes</p> <p>2. however you like, I'm flexible</p> <p>3. yes, but only cleaning the audio quality, not editing content</p> <p>4. yes: Unschooling is an educational philosophy that allows children to direct their own learning through their interests, rather than following a fixed curriculum. It is all about child-led learning, let the kids follow their own interests and passions, and set them completely free. Unschooling relies on the belief that learning occurs naturally through everyday experiences and interactions, and is based on trust in the abilities of your kids to learn what they need to learn, in a very flexible approach with you as their coach aka. parents.</p> <p>5. my favorite episode, great guest, honest vibe: <a href="https://fountain.fm/episode/W4FZJWlZOA8r8KotlQEf">https://fountain.fm/episode/W4FZJWlZOA8r8KotlQEf</a></p>

<p>In this episode, I sit down with <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/denystroyak/">Denys Troyak</a>, a visionary behind <a href="⁠https://www.satoshi-island.com/⁠">Satoshi Island</a>, a decentralized utopia in Vanuatu.</p> <p>This time, it’s all about personal growth, community building, and emotional well-being, exploring how Satoshi Island aims to create a sustainable and regenerative community focused on planetary health, financial well-being, and personal fulfillment.</p> <p>And as <a href="https://podcast.citydao.io/building-the-crypto-capital-of-the-world-with-denys-troyak/">Denys</a> explains: we need to change the world, and we need to start with us. So, for me, <a href="⁠https://x.com/satoshiisland⁠">Satoshi Island</a> is one of the pioneering projects that show us today, how freedom maxis might live tomorrow.</p> <p>We discuss the importance of slowing down, connecting with nature, and finding happiness within, rather than through material or societal pressures. Denys shares his personal transformation through a simpler life in Vanuatu and how it has deepened his understanding of community and well-being.</p> <p>"Why don't we smile more? Why don't we hug more? Well, it's, you know, it's, it's because we're disconnected." – Denys</p> <p>And of course, we also touch base on the unschooling part – traditional education is "one fits all" approach, that doesn’t fit at all. As unschooling is not so much about our kids, but about ourselves, this episode is about self-observation, humor, and love, to make us the best coaches for our free ranged, wild kids <3</p>

<p>This time on Wild Life Unschooling, I had a really nice conversation with <a href="https://x.com/scholarium_at">Rahim Taghizadegan</a>. Rahim is a powerhouse in Austrian economics, a philosopher, and the mastermind behind the <a href="https://scholarium.at/">Scholarium</a> in Vienna.</p> <p>One of many inspiring projects, that <a href="https://austrian-institute.org/de/autoren/rahim-taghizadegan/">Rahim</a> is pushing forward, is his <a href="www.moving.school">groundbreaking project</a> that helps Bitcoin families live across different countries to bypass the traditional state schooling system.</p> <p>From his journey through Austrian economics to his bold ideas on Free Private Cities and the role of Bitcoin, this episode is packed with insights on flexible living and innovative thinking.</p> <p>If you’re passionate about breaking stereotypes and embracing a decentralized lifestyle, this one is for you ;)</p>

<p>In this episode, I sit down with Lea, podcast host of <a href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lea-meakin">The Conversation Junkie</a>, for an open, raw conversation about everything from mental health and ADHD to breaking free from societal norms. We dive deep into Lea's personal journey with depression, exploring how he transformed his mindset and found his way to personal growth without relying on medication.</p> <p>What we both agree on, is the magic of… ice baths, that ADHD is a superpower, and how breaking the mold of societal expectations can actually save your mental health.</p> <p>We also get into some heavier topics, like the current cultural clashes in Great Britain and how media sensationalism stokes the flames of division. Lea's message is clear: we’re being manipulated to fight each other instead of uniting as humans.</p> <p>And, just because we did not cover enough topics yet ;) we're going a little cosmic, we dive into the theory of the Anunnaki. 👽</p> <p>From exploring untapped human potential and unlocking hidden knowledge, to rethinking traditional gender roles and the need for strong role models. Let's challenge the norm, question everything, and dig deep into the wild ride that is the human experience.</p>

<p>This talk, is all about consciousness! So, grab a tea, and enjoy the universe of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@bitcoinconsciousness">Caleb from the Bitcoin Consciousness Community</a>!</p> <p>„<a href="https://bitcoin-consciousness.com/">Decentralized Consciousness</a> represents a world where each individual trusts in his or her highest self (the “node”) along with the flow of the universe (the “creation network”) to live, create, and flourish – completely on their own terms. We are a community of like-spirited people working to connect with our inner nodes, practicing first principles of decentralization and informing the spiritual communities about Bitcoin.“</p> <p>Caleb and I already recorded an episode for <a href="⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MlozggjlMc⁠">his pod</a>, and I enjoyed our conversation so much, that I wanted to have Caleb on my podcast as well!</p> <p>In this episode, I chat with Caleb about the fascinating intersection of Bitcoin, science, and spirituality. We explore how Bitcoin, a digital creation, connects with spiritual concepts and emotions, transforming energy into something valuable and raising our vibrational state. Caleb introduces the idea of "energetic pendulums," suggesting Bitcoin could represent a higher vibrational force that enhances positive emotions and connections.</p> <p>Of course you can find <a href="njump.me/npub1rajxkwyqud43qvrzah0460gcfjl24436m67lprarrzgu37pl03cqgjrkqx">Caleb on Nostr</a> as well :)</p>

<p>When we talk about unschooling, we also have to talk about the unschooling lifestyle. Because it’s quite clear, that for a lot of families, it’s difficult to integrate the unschooling lifestyle in society’s norms. Therefore, we’re shaping the society of the future through our own lifestyle – that means, we are discovering new ground all the time.</p> <p>This is why, I sat down with Tobias Eugene, who is a freedom maxi, Bitcoiner, and working on realizing his dream of a Citadel, where a holistic and conscious lifestyle is possible. Let's see, what kind of future we are creating! <3</p>

<p>In this episode of the Wild Life Unschooling Podcast, I sit down with <a href="https://x.com/V4BTC">Tony</a> from <a href="https://www.thebitcoinway.com/">The Bitcoin Way</a> to talk about the crumbling structures of our world and the rise of self-sovereignty. We explore how outdated systems are failing and why it's crucial to step out of the mess and build something new.</p> <p>Tony’s take is clear: the EU and other big institutions are on their last legs. He’s passionate about equipping ourselves and our kids with the knowledge to navigate a world that's falling apart, not by clinging to old systems, but by creating self-sufficient, independent lives.</p> <p>This isn’t just about observing the chaos; it’s about actively choosing to live differently and build resilient communities. Listen in for a raw, real discussion on escaping the clutches of a dying system and embracing true freedom.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/stargatevoyager/">Derek Olson</a>, a wonderful ancient history researcher, who is digging deep into humanity’s history, reveiling the true history that looks very different from the official version that is taught in schools.</p> <p>What does this have to do with unschooling you may ask yourself. This kind of knowledge we should teach our kids, instead of the propagandized version that is being taught in school. And I hope that Derek gives you lots of interesting points to deep dive much further into humanity’s history, together with your kids.</p> <p><strong>There is still a lot to discover.</strong></p> <p>And, as you know me now already a bit, you know that I’m all in when it comes to search for the truth and to the question „wtf are we doing on this planet“. Not only as a collective, but also as individuals. For me, looking into humanity’s history, is one part of falling into this rabbit hole.</p> <p><strong>The best part:</strong> <a href="https://linktr.ee/ancientexpedition"><strong>You can go on real life research adventures with Derek</strong></a><strong>.</strong> Isn't this the best type of education?!</p>
