Summary

As you know if you listened to my episode about Homeschooled, I found it to be a fascinating deep dive into an enmeshed relationship between the author and his homeschooling mom. Today I'm thrilled to have Stefan as a guest! He is wonderful, open, smart, and introspective. He is a kindred spirit and I identify a lot with many of the themes he brings up in his work, from my own childhood. Note: There are spoilers... but not for everything.
