What if the key to raising thoughtful, balanced, and flourishing kids isn't found in big moments - but in the quiet rhythms of daily life?

In this episode, Davies Owens welcomes back Joanna Hensley, head of lower school at Wilson Hill Academy, pastor’s wife, and homeschool mom of six. With wisdom rooted in classical Christian education and a deep love for Charlotte Mason’s philosophy, Joanna shares practical ways families can cultivate meaningful habits, routines, and wonder even in the unstructured days of summer.

From math games and nature walks to reading “living books” and resisting digital distractions, this conversation is packed with creative ideas for shaping lifelong learners without turning your home into a classroom.

Whether you're parenting preschoolers or teens, this episode offers realistic, life-giving rhythms that bring formation, not just information.

🎧 Tune in to discover:

Why rhythm—not intensity—is the key to lasting impact
How to train the habit of attention in a distracted world
What it looks like to partner with others in community-driven formation

You don’t need more to-do lists - you need better rhythms. Start here.
