Transformative coaching for deschoolers, decolonisers, disruptors and new-paradigm builders. Hi! WHAT DO I MEAN BY DESCHOOLING? It doesn't have to be like that.
My name is May Ling and I’m a mother, a wife, a home educator (unschooler) of 2 daughters, a Transformative Coach and a loving disruptor. If you’re looking for a joyful way to find yourself, be a better parent, be a more inspiring educator, find a sense of purpose and direction - read on! My favourite work is helping people live a life guided by love and understanding through transformative coachi
ng and deschooling. Ah, what a rich and wonderful topic! But to keep it short, deschooling is unlearning the beliefs the school system taught us that limit our understanding of who we are and what we’re capable of. You know, beliefs like you're only as good as your exam results, that you only learn in school, and that children should be at the bottom of the power hierarchy. As you start to expose these beliefs you find you have more freedom to choose how you want to live your life, how you want children to be treated, and what you can create as an expression of who you are, rather than who you should be. WHAT DO I MEAN BY TRANSFORMATIVE COACHING? I mean one day you have an insight that completely changes the way you see yourself and the world. All the obstacles and problems you had suddenly become irrelevant and new, fresh possibilities start sprouting in what seem like miraculous ways, and conditioning you thought you were stuck with just melts away. THIS is what happens with transformative coaching. We’re not looking for incremental change, or holding you accountable to do things you think you should be doing. We’re looking for paradigm shifts that come from a deeper understanding of how our human experience is created. A JOYFUL PATH OF SELF-DISCOVERY
If you’ve ever done personal growth work you’ll know that it can be exhausting, leave you feeling horribly exposed and vulnerable, and the work is N.E.V.E.R.E.N.D.I.N.G. On its own, deschooling can be a liberating path that helps you to realise it’s not YOU that’s broken, it’s not the child who’s the problem, that it’s not down to your personal sacrifice to make things work. I highly recommend it! And when combined with Transformative Coaching that liberating path can be gorgeous, filled with ease, and a deep, nourishing peace - a joy in itself. That’s what’s on offer, and if you feel like this approach might be exactly what you need right now, then reach out!

I meant to post the full line up earlier but moving house kinda got in the way! If you register you can catch up with the recordings of the first three talks with Kelly Rigg Lucy Aitkin-Read -disco and Chris Bagley, and join the rest live, especially the youth day on Friday.
Tonight at 5.30pm BST (Thursday 23rd April) I’ll be joining Fabienne Vailes (SFHEA) Sifaan Zavahir and Je’anna L Clements to share the experiences of our lives without school, and imagine together (with you!) what the future could look like.
Please come and bring your reflections, observations and questions so we can stoke our collective imagination and build a future vision together!

Today at 6pm UTC/GMT I have the good fortune to be in a room with some beautiful people discussing how we adults can deschool ourselves as we support our young people to live a life without school.
This is part of The Unschooling Summit that runs today until 22nd March and is free to attend with recordings available for 48hrs (paid after that).
There are lots of lovely people involved like and and and so it’s incredibly accessible and full of generous sharing of real life experience.
I highly recommend getting your free ticket to join in the conversation!

I’m resharing this video in smaller bits for algorithm purposes. It’s a tough watch, but it’s also so important to watch. Please don’t police his rage; shouldn’t we all be incandescent at what continues to happen to people just like us while our governments continue to lie to us?

Posted • As of this week, Keir has officially transitioned…
Not genders — that would require courage.
He’s transitioning from Starmer to Starver.
Starver of principles.
Protector of polls.
Silencer of UN reports.
Why feed the hungry… when you can feed BAE Systems?
Britain doesn’t oppose genocide.
It funds it — moderately, and with good PR.
