Episode notes
In this episode I explore the fascinating life of Haley Straw, an indie author, busy homeschooling mother of six, and taxi driver to the Amish.
Haley shares her experiences of being an outsider who has gotten close to the Amish community, discussing their values, lifestyle, and her unique perspective as a Mormon. The conversation delves into the nuances of Amish culture, from their education and community dynamics to their unique approach to holidays and self-reliance. Haley's story provides a heartfelt look at the power of empathy, the importance of family, and the lessons we can learn from different ways of life.
