This is the part where the messy middle becomes the origin story.

In Part 1 of the Crack the Cursive Code series, Jax opens up about how a part-time homeschool setup, a drool-covered workbook, and a chicken in a bathrobe sparked something bigger than any plan ever could.

📜 There was no plan to become a curriculum.
It began as chaos, as survival, as resistance.
But somehow—through scribbles, memes, and magic—it became a full-blown program that tackles boredom, busywork, and burnout with flow, story, and creativity.

This episode tells the raw truth behind Crack the Cursive Code and the accidental brilliance that lives inside Chicken Scratch.

In this episode:
🐔 Why Chicken nearly broke the project (and how he saved it)
🧠 The neurological power of cursive writing
🎒 How busywork, boredom, and bucks became the three dragons to slay
📚 What part-time homeschooling taught Jax about flow-based learning
🤯 How imposter syndrome, workbook trauma, and pure instinct shaped the program
📝 Why The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog is the sentence that started it all

Who this episode is for:
✔️ Blended or part-time homeschoolers
✔️ Neurodivergent families
✔️ Parents tired of fighting with workbooks
✔️ Creators who feel like they're building mid-scribble
✔️ Anyone who ever said, "I never meant to start this, but now I have to finish it"
