We couldn't be more thrilled to have Erika Sheets, the passionate, local co-founder of Moms for Liberty, joining us. Get ready to hear a powerful narrative on local activism, education and parenting from a mom who’s in the trenches fighting for children's education rights. Erika’s journey to co-founding the Johnson County chapter of Moms for Liberty and her relentless advocacy for quality education are truly inspiring.

Our conversation takes a deep dive into discussing the world of parenting, more so the crucial family investments we undertake, particularly the selection of the right school district for our children. We break down the myth that families are against teachers, highlighting that parents must make decisions based on each child's unique needs. We don't shy away from exploring the potential impact of the decreasing public school enrollment on our children's education.

The passion doesn't stop there. We tackle the importance of being proactive in our children's education, questioning narratives, and standing up against bullying and intimidation tactics. Wrapping up our conversation, we explore our voting power as citizens, the importance of researching candidates, and supporting organizations that align with our values, like Moms for Liberty. Join us, and let's empower ourselves to take a stand for our children's education!
