The Journey From AP to RU (Atttachment Parenting to Radical Unschooling)
Many parents come to the Unschooling life after having practiced Attachment Parenting in their children's early years. Extending AP philosophy seems to be more difficult for parents once their children get older and their needs change. Applying the same understanding that parents practicing AP have for baby-wearing, child-led weaning and the family bed to older children on topics such as reading, media and foods is an important aspect of Radical Unschooling. Empower yourself and learn about how natural the transition to from AP to RU can be when you to extend the Trust you had for your children when they were babies through their entire lives.   

Finding Your Inner Advocate
The Unschooling life is so inspiring and joyful that many of us quickly become advocates for this unique life. Advocacy comes in many forms and finding the type of advocacy that we enjoy doing best is such an essential aspect of being able to reach others. Advocacy could be anything from starting an Unschooling blog or online group, to leading support groups and meetings in your area, to writing a book, becoming a parenting coach, to facilitating conferences or it could mean simply being kind to your child in public for others to take notice and learn from. We are on the leading edge of social change in our culture being pioneers for this amazing life. If you are someone wanting to make a difference in this World and speak for the rights and respect of children, we invite you to join take part in this session to learn how to advocate in a way that is unique to *Who You Are*.  

Growth Through Our Back-Steps
Living this amazing life Unschooling requires Trust and personal growth. For many there is a process coming to this life that is very similar to the process of birth. When a woman is pushing out a baby, her progress is described as "two steps forward, one step back". This is very similar to how many experience putting Unschooling and peaceful parenting philosophy into practice. When we are learning and applying a new mindset with our children we sometimes have "back-steps" and revert back to our old parenting ways. These moments should not be viewed with guilt and frustration, but views as an important part of the journey.  During our "back-steps" such amazing growth takes place within us. We are able to feel the contrast of emotions and actions from our past parenting practices to how we are living now, striving for Joy and Peace with our children. During this session we will explore how to use and accept these all important "back-steps" to learn and grow from on our own personal paths of putting philosophy into practice.

Nurturing Passions and Interests
Being connected and involved with our children means seeing the learning that takes place in all of their interests, not just what society deems "educational". Unschooling means breaking down the walls and limits associated with a compartmentalized life which separates life and learning into "subjects". True, authentic learning can only come from the freedom to live a life that our children desire, making choices that are right for them. Dayna shares how to connect with our children through all of their interests and how to see the learning that takes place in all that they do. During this session Dayna will also discuss how beneficial Unschooling is for not only children, but for parents, by allowing them to heal from an institutionalized childhood and getting in touch with who they really are as individuals.  Learning how to relight our own flames of curiosity by taking on new interests and being enthusiastic about learning ourselves will enable our children to see that learning through life never ends. Learning IS life. 

Trusting the Universe
If Unschooling could be described in one word, that word would be *Trust*. Trusting our children and ourselves is the key element in living a connected, loving life with our families. The Law of Attraction takes that same trust one step further to not only trusting our families, but trusting the Universe. Sharing with our children that they create their own lives through their thoughts and intentions has been enormously empowering for Unschooling families all over the world. Every human being has the ability to transform any weakness or suffering into strength, power, perfect peace, health, and abundance. During this session Dayna will share how living the Law of Attraction has changed her and her family's life for the better and how you too can empower yourself and your children to create the life you all desire through learning about this scientific law of the Universe.

Joe, Dayna's husband, joins Dayna in hosting:

Respectful Partnerships
It is common that one parent comes to understand Unschooling before the other. This can be a challenging aspect of coming to this life for the entire family. During this session we will explore how to respectfully honor where each of you are on your journey to understand Unschooling and respectful, peaceful parenting. It is important to extend the same respect we have for our children to learn things in their own time to our partners when they are learning about this new philosophy. Our children learn so much from how we treat one another, and respecting where each of you are on this path can sometimes be challenging.  During this session Dayna's husband of 13 years, Joe, joins in the discussion sharing his experience and personal growth as he has come to understand Unschooling and peaceful parenting in his own way, in his own time. Learning to respect, and not trying to control each other, has helped them deepen their love and strengthen their connection as a family.
