How do you tell your family you're traditional?

Hi guys, I'm new here.

31 F Single with a bachelor's degree. This past summer I had the
bright idea that I was going to make a name for myself by going to law
school to become a lawyer and then buy my own condo and eventually get
married and have a 2-income marriage blah blah. But within the past
couple months I realized that isn't me - it was just a fantasy i
created to meet the standards of my ultra-liberal, ultra academia,
feminist family. My real dream is to become a wife and stay at home
homeschooling mom and once I accepted this I threw my lawyer dream
away and have been spending all my extra time cultivating femininity,
homemaking, and mom skills.

But today my Dad tried to start a conversation with me about speaking
to his law school professor friend and studying for LSATs. I froze. I
wanted to tell him I don't want to be a lawyer anymore, but I knew I
couldn't tell him that without telling him the whole story, and I knew
he wouldn't take it well. My dad is the stereotype of the counter
culture hippie activist college student of the 60's who went on to
perpetuate liberal propaganda by becoming a college professor in
adulthood. My liberal conditioning came from him.

Has anyone else had to deal with coming out as red pilled to their
liberal family? How do you suggest I do it? I know my entire family
will not take it well.

EDIT: thanks for the responses. it's good to have support from
like-minded women. hearing your words affirmed to me that given my
goals and values, im on the right track. there were however responses
that completely caught me by surprise. encouraging a 31 year old
aspiring sahw/m to go into debt by going to law school when she's not
passionate about it was not something I'd expect to see in a redpilled
wives thread.
