Colleen and this show are true blessings. I am so honored to have had a chance to share here as a guest, and to pour into this amazing community of people Colleen supports. This show is a true gift Colleen, thank you for all you do! 💕🎉 -Katie @ Her Home and Heart Podcast

I’ve been listening to this podcast from the beginning and I just listened to the last one on 7 secrets to building self-esteem and I was reminded that Colleen truly cares and is our cheerleader on this journey of parenting. She has professional well thought out advice and wisdom that she knows will help our children become stronger and resilient human beings. Thank you Colleen! You’re a gem!

Thank you so much before your podcast, Colleen. I am not sure if my child is gifted but from your last episode I think there’s a possibility. I’m thankful for your insights about how to support diverse learners, and I think any homeschool parent can benefit from your advice and perspective no matter how their kids learn. Can’t wait to see you again at the convention in Cincinnati.

I have learned so much from Colleen at RLL. It really is one of my favorite podcasts. I love Colleen's voice, and I feel like she really GETS my unschooled 10yo twice-exceptional son. I look forward to every new show!

I love the practical tips in this podcast. I find myself referencing it often and easily taking action! What a wonderful resource. 🙌🏻

So much help and practical tips! I feel like someone understands my kids and has now given me more understanding!!

I listen to a lot of podcasts about autism, homeschooling, and Christian motherhood and this is one of my favorite by far! I love Colleen’s insight and joyful personality and the guests she brings on the podcast are high quality. Ever episode is great! I’m preparing to homeschool my 2e son this fall for the first time, and I feel much more confident having listened to RLL.

Colleen was the first person to open my ideas to the idea of twice exceptional kid. Having resources to address these needs is so valuable! Thank you for creating space to process these complex issues in education!

I feel like I have found my people in Raising Lifelong learners and Colleen. I am so thankful for the work she does. I am parenting and homeschooling a twice exceptional autistic/ADHD boy and his NT sister. I left a 15 year career in education and a system that wasn’t working for my son. I feel like I have a lot to learn about homeschooling!

I am so thankful for this podcast. I return to it again and again as we forge a new path for our daughter’s education. Colleen gives endless helpful tips for homeschooling gifted kids without being pushy. She helps me to trust myself and my child as we try to meet her needs and help her grown and learn.

Colleen pulls you in and talks you down from the panic of being your child’s “person”! She has practical ideas and tools and talks to great guests about how to raise all of our kids to be lifelong learners!

Great info about homeschooling differently wired kids. Keep up the good work

Thank you Colleen for providing a comforting reassurance that our special kiddos are not alone! Keep up the great work!

This is the one podcast I never miss! Colleen has a wonderful, educated, gentle, and wise take in parenting and home educating differently wired kids. From the first podcast I listened to, I knew I found my people and a place where I didn’t feel alone, where I could say “me too” while always learning something new.

This is one of my favorite podcasts! Colleen has giving me so much insight and an understanding of my son that I had but I didn’t utilize! It feels good to know that another Mom understands and has figured out ways to help. I always feel confident and happy after I listen to this podcast! This is a great resource for all Moms especially Homeschooling Mommas! Thank you Colleen!

Listening to her podcast always renews my confidence in my decision to begin homeschooling my gifted daughter with the hopes that she will always enjoy learning and will reach for the stars!

Colleen is a legitimate authority on Gifted Learners and Homeschooling both. I’ve attended workshops and support groups for parenting gifted learners and observed the gap of knowledge around homeschooling these kids. I’ve been in homeschool group settings where there was no focus on gifted learning. Raising Lifelong Learners is a happy marriage of both worlds with true expert advice and compassion for those who raise these quirky kids. Grateful for the show!

This is a cool podcast for schoolers of all kind to give you ideas about what loving learning looks like. First off Colleen is so sweet, she’s a really chill down to earth host and has a WEALTH of information to share about educating your kids and guiding your kids. Homeschoolers will find this particularly helpful and her speciality is gifted kids so this is a great podcast for parents of gifted kids. It’s great to get ideas from all these other homeschool moms and educators and parents. Very varied families and lots to glean. Can’t wait to hear more. Secular and religious homeschoolers alike will benefit from this one.

Colleen is so encouraging and helpful. The is a podcast worth listening to.

Colleen is down to earth and filled with encouragement and wisdom. I love this podcast.

I enjoy homeschool podcasts but the Raising Lifelong Learners podcast is more than that - I love how Colleen emphasizes the children and encourages us to follow their interests with practical tips and glimpses into the lives of many different kinds of learners. Five stars from this Catholic mum!

Colleen is curious and clever and she’s inspiring for families eager to inspire lifelong learning. Awesome!!!

Colleen is so knowledgeable and shares a wealth of information. I look forward to all of her future podcasts!

Colleen has a wealth of knowledge about educating children with varied needs. I love the she (and her guests) consistently encourage us to promote a love for learning in our children and allow them to pursue passions! Great educational podcast!

Colleen is such a breath of fresh air. After listening, I felt encouraged to go play with my kids and to just enjoy watching them learn. Thank you!

RLL is my favorite resource for raising gifted and twice-exceptional kids, and I'm so excited that they now have a podcast. I can't wait to glean more wisdom from a fellow mom in the trenches who has both the knowledge and experience to help me raise my kiddos!

I am so glad that I found this podcast. Colleen is so easy to listen to. I love all of the great information being shared. It’s so encouraging to hear the stories of others on their journey to raising children to love learning and thrive in this world. I highly recommend you check this one out!

This family is full of great advice, and inspiration for raising life-long curious minds. Colleen keeps up with all the latest in parenting questions for gifted kids and 2E kids. She has so much food for thought on how to create a home filled with daily inspiration and learning.
