Self-Awareness. Connection. Agency. Leading from Within.
Parents are key partners in supporting student success. Take advantage of this universal language to help your child be their best and bring to life important conversations at home.
Kids today are growing up in increasingly complex times and more than ever need to develop an inner compass. With so much change and uncertainty at hand, we all want our young people to grow up to be authentic, compassionate and resilient beings. Join us to explore the inter-relationship between self-awareness, identity, and well-being and learn strategies for teaching your kids how to thrive in turbulent times. Learn practical strategies for helping them make effective decisions, navigate relationships, be strong self-leaders, and decide who they want to be in a world of change.
We all have hidden superpowers within us that have the potential to help us live our best lives. We hear a lot about empathy, compassion, resilience, gratitude, curiosity, and courage these days but sometimes it is difficult to model them and nurture them in our children. Join us to explore the inter-relationship between self-awareness and well-being and discover intuitive strategies for how to bring these important inner resources to life. Learn how to nurture your child’s superpowers and how to empower your child to bring them to life.
We sometimes expect parents to know how to nurture it in themselves and their children. It is our ability to recover from stress, setbacks and challenges, regain a positive outlook and feel empowered. We develop it through experience, but what does that mean for children who are still building life experience and teachers who are worn out? Join us to explore the factors that contribute to resilience and learn how to leverage the Captain and Poet to strengthen your own resilience and gain practical strategies for creating a supportive, nurturing environment at home.
