#12: Encouraging curiosity and celebrating uniqueness - how we teach diversity with Maya

05/24/23 • 29 min

Today I share with you a special talk I had with Maya, a mom of 2 girls and an anti-bias education consultant. Our topic for the interview was fostering diversity but as always it led us to discuss the parent child relationship as a whole. Maya has been in early childhood education for a long time and she has a lot of tools in her toolkit. We talked about our own unconscious parenting patterns in triggering situations and the right way to apologize to our kids when we react in a disrespectful way. We reflected on why it’s important to encourage our children to ask questions and be the ones that are always ready to answer or at least help them find the answer.

#11: How do you teach money to kids with Tania Vasallo

Send us a text

Welcome to an empowering conversation about money and the ways we teach money to kids.

My guest this time is Tania Vasallo who’s the host of The Courage To Be Podcast and the founder of The Courage To Be Happy, a global community of high-achieving women entrepreneurs working to become financially empowered and independent.

Born to a Spanish father and an American mother and raised in Spain, Tania was constantly in search of freedom from a patriarchal society. She now specializes in transforming a mindset of lack to a mindset of abundance and prosperity so that her clients discover their own autonomy in their personal and financial choices. With her guidance her first Money Magic Miracles cohort of 28 women made over 1.2 million dollars collectively in just eight weeks.

Tania has a 9 year old daughter and she shares great examples of how she empowers her to develop an abundance mindset, to be curious about money, to use her imagination to create sources of income even at this young age, to help understand how money can be used to help the community, the environment, or a cause close to heart.

Listen in as we talk about how to help kids create a foundation for a healthy relationship with money.

This week's episode is a special one because I am not having a guest, I am not giving you the takeaways from a great book, I am tuning in solo and sharing my thoughts on the topic of helping our kids manage their emotional state. Resetting our emotional state can be a helpful practice for managing stress, anxiety, and other challenging emotions and the earlier our kids acquire this skill, the better.

Just the other day I had a challenging situation with my daughter which turned into a great opportunity for me to coach her on how to change her state. I realized that young children and even adults sometimes have trouble managing their emotions and getting out of a negative state.

Here’s a few things you’ll learn from the episode:
