## Resource

This week on the  Womenkind Collective Podcast , we’re spilling the tea (again!) with  Caro Giles  — writer, teacher, and mum of four. We first met Caro in  Series 7, Episode 3 , where she shared the story behind her book  12 Moons . She’s back to tell us about her powerful new memoir  Unschooled  — a moving and deeply honest look at the cracks in our education system, and the unseen, undervalued labour of caring and advocating for children. Caro’s story captures the exhaustion, love, and resilience of mothers and carers everywhere, and the freedom that can come when you dare to step outside the system. We talk about what it really means to be  unschooled  , as a mother, as a carer, and as a woman reclaiming her own identity. 🌿 Stick around for a beautiful quote to carry you through the week. ☕ SUBSCRIBE for more shenanigans, honest chats on feminist issues, women’s health, sisterhood, and smashing the patriarchy — one cuppa at a time. 💬 Drop us a comment — we love hearing from you! 🎥 Watch the full interview on our YouTube channel. ☕ Support us on Ko-Fi:  https://ko-fi.com/womenkindcollectivepodcast ☕  SUBSCRIBE  for honest chats on women’s health, feminist issues, sisterhood & smashing the patriarchy, one cuppa at a time. 💛 Enjoying the podcast?
