** Bonus episode in celebration of National Numeracy Day 22/05/2024

My special guest this week is Heidi Jorgensen, a maths tutor and mum of 2. On this episode, we discuss why many people find maths challenging, how teachers can help, and what maths can teach us about the natural world.

About Heidi
Hi! I'm Heidi! I am a mom of 2...an almost 1 year old and an almost 3 year old. I used to teach middle school and high school math until I couldn't anymore, so I started an online math tutoring business www.wisekinde.com
I am a crazy math lady who LOVES math and loves helping kids feel good about doing math. My mission is to help moms feel empowered to either help their kids do math and love it OR help them outsource and get their kids the math help they need. On top of running my business (which I LOVE) we are gearing up to move our family of 4 abroad (out of the USA) to soak up some adventures together and really get the most joy out of these early years with our kids.

In honour of Neurodiversity Celebration week, this week's episode follows the parenting journey of Parenting Coach, Layal Aoudi and her son who is diagnosed with ADHD.

About Layal
My journey began with a minor in child psychology due to my passion with children, which laid the foundation of understanding the child’s brain and then resulted in obtaining my master’s in Applied Behavior Analysis.
I realized I also wanted to collaborate with parents. Supporting parents was important for me to ensure they have the knowledge and tools to provide their children with the comprehensive care they need when they don’t have professional support available. I started following parent coaches until I came across an institute that certified people with exactly what I was looking for and more. As I was studying and learning this different approach, I realized it was changing my personal parenting style with my own children to a healthier and closer parent-child relationship, and that is when I realized I wanted to share the skills and knowledge with the world. I became a certified parent coach to foster a supportive environment for both the child and parent through “care to repair parenting”.

This weeks guest is Angie Grandt, an adoption coach and we discuss the challenges that can come with adoption and how to create trust and maintain connection with your adopted child.

About Angie
Angie Grandt is The Adoption Coach. She is also a podcast guest, an early intervention speech therapist, and has worked in the autism field for 2+ decades. As an adoptive and bio mom, and a former foster mom, she has extensive training and experience in trauma and attachment, as well as early childhood development. She knows firsthand that raising children who are difficult to connect with, and who often display challenging behaviors, takes a huge toll on parents. This can often lead to shame, anxiety, depression, isolation, and a growing loss of hope for both parent and child. Utilizing both personal and professional experience, training, and certifications, Angie specializes in helping post-adoptive and foster parents raising children from trauma and disrupted placement who are overwhelmed by behaviors, feel a victim in their own home, and are ready to throw in the towel. She is passionate about coaching adoptive parents through worry, frustration and resentment to tackle behaviors and build lasting connections with their children so that they can create hope, peace and joy in their home.
