079 | Unschooling kids, designing rural coliving and coworking ventures with Joy and Mayur Sontakke | PT 3

PT 3: Joy and Mayur Sontakke are entrepreneurs, coliving hosts, community builders and parents of three kids.

Through building NomadGao, Remote Explorers and the Nomadtuktuk brand and retreats for families, they're focused on connecting like-minded individuals and creating their own village with experiences closer to nature.

In our third and final episode, we talk about the transition period from a solo digital nomad to a parent and business owner, how children mirror your behaviour and what their future vision is for creating community and their own village.

THINGS WE TALK ABOUT:

• The things they wish someone would have told them before becoming parents and entrepreneurs
• The importance of modelling and mirroring things for kids, when they learn by example
• The kind of world they hope their kids grow up in and how they see their vision evolving to including more rural regeneration, growing their own food and creating a community of families into their elder years
• Why they think within the next five years, the types of remote workers and digital nomads will include more families
• How you can connect with them as a remote worker, digital nomad, traveller, parent or those interested in homeschooling, unschooling and world schooling

Thanks to Joy and Mayur for taking the time to speak with me after their kids bedtime about all things parenthood, building businesses and experimenting with homeschooling, unschooling and worldschooling their three kids.

Season 5 has been sponsored by the Startup Women Fund, presented by Startup Canada, Scotiabank and UPS.
