Welcome to the Wild and Free Podcast, episode 39.

I'm Ainsley Arment, and this week we'll talk with Leah Bowden all about the concept of loop scheduling.

Catch up with Betsy Jenkins, the creator of the hilarious homeschooling with the classics Instagram feed,

and share a fun moment at the recent Wild and Free Conference in Franklin, Tennessee.

So grab a cup of coffee and join us on the front porch.

Let's get started. As you know, we just got back from our wild and free conference in Franklin, Tennessee.

There's something so life-giving about the sweet sisterhood we share by coming together at these

events, and our hope is that all of us would leave with full hearts, new friends, and fresh hope.

These gatherings aren't just about the content and community.

There's a lot of laughter, a few tears, and plenty of dancing. At our recent conference in

Franklin, there was a fun moment on stage that we wanted to share with you.

It was a Saturday morning, and our lovable MC, Tina Ingold, was about to introduce the first presenter.

I just wanted to take a second and talk about our theme for this week, the wonder of childhood.

And I think as moms, especially homeschool moms, but just as she started to speak, her microphone stopped working.

Feel the pressure to kind of make our kids' child the very, my mic working.

Several members of our production team were on stage moving equipment,

so one of them rushed over to help, and then another.

There was a swarm of production crew surrounding Tina.

They finally got the microphone to work, but decided to test it just to make sure.

What resulted from their sound check turned out to be, well, somewhat surprising.

Try one on this plugged in or something.

Oh, this working, okay.
