152. Imagine Seeing the World as One with Rekha Magon

<p dir="ltr">One of the challenges with traditional education settings is that you’re bound to the same place for nine or more months every year. Slow travel, or really learning about a culture or community is difficult, if not impossible.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">But the reality is that taking kids out of their comfort zones and letting them learn and live in other areas can teach them about kindness, purpose, building relationships, and so much more.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">When this week’s guest, Rekha Magon, tried to take her then kindergarten-age son overseas for a month, his teacher balked and expressed fear that he’d miss so much school. So Rekha pulled her son out of school and started building a learning platform that better suited her family’s lifestyle.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Today that platform is Boundless Life, a turnkey solution for families to live, work, and learn while experiencing the world. They currently have three locations in Europe and are launching a fourth location in Bali this year. And families are embracing the idea so much that they’re launching their own locations across the globe.</p> <h2 dir="ltr">About Rekha Magon:</h2> <p dir="ltr">Rekha Magon is the co-founder and Head of Education of Boundless Life, a turnkey solution for families- to live, work and learn while experiencing the world.
