WORKSHOP

But what if…? Navigating fear, doubt, and trust when you step outside school

With Becka Koritz & Sari González of Radical Learning

“But what if…?” is the question that tends to show up when we step outside school, or even years after we’ve done so. What if they fall behind? What if they never learn discipline? What if I’m making a mistake? These fears don’t mean we’re doing unschooling wrong. They’re echoes of school conditioning that live deep in our bodies, and they often surface when we care the most.

In this interactive workshop, Sari & Becka will explore the common beliefs and late-night doubts that can pull parents back toward pressure or self-doubt—whether they’re new to unschooling or have been living it for years. The session will include guided reflection, small-group conversations, and embodied practice to support meeting fear without letting it run the show. Rather than offering quick fixes, the focus is on building awareness, trust, and capacity, so parents can respond to uncertainty from a more grounded, connected place.


Sari González and Becka Koritz
are co-founders of Radical Learning, facilitators, and unschooling mamas of neurodivergent young people.

With over 35 years of combined experience, they support parents and educators who are questioning conventional schooling - as well as those already deep in the unschooling journey - to move from fear and control toward trust, consent, and shared power.

Their work is grounded in lived experience and the understanding that unschooling isn’t hard because parents don’t know what they’re doing - it’s hard because they’re trying to raise free humans inside systems, and nervous systems, shaped by urgency, performance, and control.

They run Explora Agile Learning Community in Mexico, host the Radical Learning Talks podcast, and offer online courses, monthly Parent Support Circles, Deeply Deschooling group coaching, and immersive in-person trainings.

Rather than offering formulas or fixes, they create relational spaces where adults can shed internalized school conditioning, rebuild trust in young people’s autonomy, and learn to live their values in everyday life.

At the heart of their work is a simple but radical commitment: young people deserve dignity, voice, and real freedom — and adults deserve support as they unlearn what gets in the way.
