How my daughter became a swim coach in a day, and other lessons in self-empowerment

Hi! Welcome to my blog. I'm excited to share the first edition of my weekly "Talk Tips" newsletter. This edition's all about #confidence: how small language shifts can empower kids, and even occasionally teach each other something. By uncovering children's hidden strengths and highlighting them, we can boost confidence in a grounded way, helping kids feel more like leaders, and able to offer useful skills.

I'd love to hear your feedback as I develop further editions of this newsletter.

As a mom, speech pathologist, and Harvard lecturer, I've heard so many kids struggling with the language needed to resolve conflicts effectively and not lose friends. We often think lecturing will support them, but really, open-ended questions and prompts can be far more effective. This weekly newsletter is designed to explore strategies that help. See more here, and subscribe if you're interested:
