After a loooong break from recording due to life and curveballs (our Villagers will understand), Anna, Bel and Char are back.
We talk about our fears, experience and hope as our neurodivergent 12 year olds finish primary school, and head into high school.
We also update listeners on our name change, and share that our conversations from now on will also be on YouTube!

S3 Ep 6 - Dr Ross Greene download
Bel interviews Anna on her recent workshop with the incredible Dr Ross Greene. Dr Greene has developed a child-lead, exploratory approach to understanding the root of challenging behaviours and how to address the needs, rather than the behaviours. It's gold.
