In this episode, Christy-Faith sits down with Lisa Nehring β 30-year homeschool veteran and founder of True North Homeschool Academy β to talk about what jobs AI will replace, which fields are growing, whether college is still worth it, and why homeschool families already have the structural edge. This is Part 1 of 2.
