The Intentional Family Podcast is a conversation about slowing down, paying attention, and asking better questions.
Hosted by Andrew and Shannon Haws—parents of four and founders of Acton Academy Victoria—this podcast explores what it looks like to raise resilient, curious, grounded children in the world we’re actually living in.
Each episode blends honest storytelling, practical reflection, and thoughtful conversations around:

• Parenting and family culture

• Educational choice and human formation

• Technology, attention, and modern childhood

• Family rhythms and values

• Faith, purpose, and intentional living

• Raising children with courage, conviction, confidence, and competence

This isn’t a podcast from experts who have it all figured out. It’s a conversation from parents learning in real time—trying to move from default living toward intentional formation.
Because in the end, the goal isn’t just raising successful kids.
It’s helping form humans who can think deeply, live purposefully, love well, and step into the future with wisdom and courage.
