The strength of even the smallest children is more than we imagine, but it must have a free play in order to reveal itself" - Maria Montessori Summary This episode focuses on understanding toddlers not as problems to manage, but as persons in a critical state of development who are striving for independence and learning how to function in the world. Through a Montessori-informed and Catholic lens, Maggie Radzik explains that much of what parents label as "misbehavior" is actually a child's natural growth process combined with limited emotional regulation. Her conversation with Mike and Alicia emphasizes that parents should shift from control to formation by observing their child, preparing an environment that supports success, and responding calmly—especially during tantrums, which are signs of overwhelm rather than defiance. The episode highlights that parenting toddlers is as much about the child's formation as it is about the parents' own growth in patience, humility, and intentionality, with a gentle reminder that even very young children can begin to encounter God through simple, peaceful experiences of faith.   Key Takeaways Your toddler is not the problem - you are.   You are being formed by them as you are taking on this parenting role!    Toddlers crave independence but they are easily overwhelmed.  Create an environment for them to learn.     We need to allow the environment of the home to teach the child, but that means we need to slow down and observe them and see what they need.   To handle a tantrum, we need to stay calm and grounded and not take it personally.     Stop reacting and shift to being intentional about how you treat them.  They are a person in progress!    Couple Discussion Questions Where do we see our toddler striving for independence lately? What situations seem to overwhelm our toddler most? How do each of us typically respond to tantrums? Where do we say "no" the most? Could we change the environment instead?   Resources MFP Discipline Guide https://messyfamilyproject.org/guide/discipline-guide/   MFP Blog: How to Survive the Toddler Years https://messyfamilyproject.org/blog/how-to-survive-the-toddler-years-2/  

What does meaningful school change actually look like? In this episode of Our Classroom, Roberto Germán sits down with Dr. Lucy Canzoneri-Golden, Co-Founder and Co-Director of Coral Reef Montessori Academy Charter School, to discuss what happens when a school commits to culture, belonging, and student-centered learning over the long haul. Rather than treating equity and inclusion as isolated initiatives, Coral Reef Montessori has worked intentionally to embed these values into the fabric of the school community. Dr. Canzoneri-Golden shares lessons learned from that journey, the challenges along the way, and the impact it has had on students, educators, and school culture. In this conversation, we explore: Why school culture work cannot be treated as “one more thing” What motivated Coral Reef Montessori to invest deeply in this work How teachers' mindsets and practices evolved over time The challenges of leading meaningful change Why sustainability matters more than one-time professional development What annual teacher reflections revealed about the impact of the work Advice for school leaders seeking to create more inclusive learning communities This episode is a reminder that meaningful change rarely happens overnight. It happens through commitment, reflection, relationships, and a willingness to keep showing up. Key Reflection “School culture isn't built through a single workshop. It's built through years of intentional practice.” About Dr. Lucy Canzoneri-Golden Dr. Lucy Canzoneri-Golden is an educator, Montessori leader, and advocate for child-centered learning. As Co-Founder and Co-Director of Coral Reef Montessori Academy Charter School, she has helped cultivate a learning community grounded in independence, curiosity, compassion, and lifelong learning. Discussion Questions What does sustained school improvement look like in your context? How do you move important work from initiative to culture? What feedback are you gathering from teachers, students, and families? What systems help meaningful change endure?

In this episode of TAB Storytellers, Abi and Jen sit down with Emily Bawol, an art teacher, artist, and art therapist at A2 STEAM in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Emily shares how her path through discipline-based art education, art therapy, motherhood, Waldorf, Montessori, Reggio-inspired learning, and project-based education helped her recognize that she was already building a TAB studio before she had the language for it. Together, the trio explores the role of the art teacher in a TAB classroom, especially around idea generation, material exploration, autonomy, and helping young artists trust that their own ideas matter. Emily talks about creating a studio rooted in wonder, where students learn that they are the most important tool in the room, while still building the skills, habits, and confidence they need to bring their ideas to life.For more information about TAB, please visit the TAB website: Teaching for Artistic Behavior.

I’m Anna Brown from Living Joyfully and today I’m joined by my co-hosts Erika Ellis and Pam Laricchia, as well as our special guest today, Sam. Hello to you all. I really appreciate Sam joining us today. He’s a member of the Living Joyfully Network and it’s been really nice getting to know his story and watch how things have unfolded. He brings that thoughtful, intentional energy that I love about the Network. That energy helps fuel my own personal growth and create a beautiful, supportive environment where we can dig deeper and question the prevailing narratives. So, Sam, to get us started, can you tell us a little bit about you and your family and what everybody’s interested in right now? SAM: Sure, yeah. Well, I live in Minneapolis with my wife Kate and my daughter. I recently retired from work early. I did the early retirement thing. I had been working part time for the year previous to that. And so, I guess I can start a little bit with what my daughter’s into. I mentioned to her that this was going to be one of the questions and she said interior design and interior decorating and games. And then I would add a few things to that, too. Right now, she’s super into making slime, large amounts of slime in many different permutations. There’s lots of experimentation happening with different ingredients and add-ins and colors and that kind of thing. So, that’s kind of fun and messy. She has a wide doll collection and she’s been really into making her own rooms. She calls them mini rooms and they’re essentially like dollhouse rooms, like a kitchen or a bedroom. She makes one room at a time and adds them on to each other and buys these little, tiny little Mini Brand versions of real life products that she stocks in the doll refrigerator really intricately. And I guess that ties into her interior design interest, as well. She’s super creative. She really likes to do drawing. She makes videos and she actually, I’m kind of amazed at some of the videos that she makes because she’s, I don’t even think I said she’s nine. And so she uses her iPad to make videos and she has her own YouTube channel. She has two YouTube channels, which are not updated too frequently. It’s something she’ll get really into and then completely abandon and then six months later be really into it again. And so, that’s fun. And then she likes building forts. She likes playing with our dog Lucy, and various other things. And she watches videos. She loves YouTube and learning. She’s really into watching videos about Minecraft and Toca Boca World, which is the other game that she’s really into at the moment. She watches videos about all kinds of things like science and history. It's interesting. She’ll frequently tell me very random facts that she’s learned by watching videos and I, being skeptical, when I look at the videos she’s watching then I’ll Google it and be like is that really true? And it’s interesting because it almost always is accurate and so that’s been an interesting learning for me because I’m the kind of somebody who’s avoided YouTube and never wanted to have anything to do with it for many years. And now I watch quite a bit of it just to keep up with what she’s doing. So that’s kind of fun. And my wife Kate, she works in public policy. She’s an environmental climate scientist, and she works on making and contributing to the creation of policy to help us in the state of Minnesota adapt to climate change. And she is super engaged and super smart. And she also likes to compete in triathlons a couple of times a year. She and I are very different in the sense that she needs to have some kind of external motivator to do things and so she really thrives on deadlines and procrastination and that sort of thing and I’m completely the opposite of that. And then we just hang out a lot. We do a lot of hanging out at home, reading, and that kind of thing. And then, for me, I always have a hard time talking about myself, but I read a lot. I’m currently really interested in reading 19th century British novels, and I’m not sure why, I’ve just been really obsessed with it over the past year or so. So, I’m always reading a couple of books. I’ve really been into reading poetry from different periods, and I’ve been writing for most of my life. My first career was as a professional writer, which kind of drained the fun of writing out of me for a good long time. But I’ve been writing, some creative writing and some poetry which I haven’t done in a very, very long time so that’s been really fun. And then, my daughter and I, we just hang out pretty much every day. And we just kind of roll with it and see what happens. We don’t really have a lot of plans. We never really know what’s going to happen. But that’s how we approach it, one day at a time. PAM: I think that’s so fun. I loved the little YouTube story that was tied in there as well. I love the interest piece for you wanting to see what she’s enjoying about this because it’s a way to connect with her, no matter the interest. And I loved that you could share the various things that she’s watching rather than saying, she loves YouTube and cutting it off there. It makes such a difference like you were saying, even just in that little synopsis, the variety of things that she’s engaging with, right? SAM: Yeah, well that was a big change for me because at the beginning of our unschooling journey when we started allowing unlimited screen time, which was a huge, huge hurdle for us to get over, for me to get over. I was definitely in the mindset of, oh my god, she’s just watching YouTube all day and not caring what it was. It was just YouTube bad, whatever, internet stuff. And now, she doesn’t like me to watch with her but she’s happy to have me, like not review but just kind of check out what she has watched and then we talk about some of the videos and I tell her what I liked and she tells me what she was into and we talk about which things were silly or which things were interesting. So, that has been a huge growth for me to just spend more time to really understand what these things are that she’s interested in, in a level of detail that I can actually see it and get it and relate to it in some way, rather than dismissing it, which is what I would have done previously. ERIKA: I loved all of your shares about all of your interests. I always think when people share about family member interests, it’s like, that’s only three people in the whole world and you’re already covering so many different areas and there are so many ways and things are kind of interacting and you’re learning from each other and you’re all so different. And I just love that and I loved the slime phase. We had that big time with my youngest too and it’s pretty messy, but it’s a lot of fun. ANNA: I know the slime thing was actually after our time. Did you have slime, Pam? We didn’t have slime. It wasn’t a thing. I have friends from the Network that have younger kids that I get to visit and it’s a whole thing, right? It’s just unbelievably amazing and messy, but it’s incredible. I love that. And just that again, the diversity of interest with the three of you is just, wow, this is how rich life is when we’re just exploring these things that are interesting to us. PAM: I love that. And so, Sam, you kind of alluded to this, so I’d like to dive in a bit more, but I would love to hear a bit more about how you actually discovered unschooling and what your family’s transition to unschooling looked like. SAM: This will be good to talk about because this was definitely a big journey for us and not something we ever would have imagined, conceived of, anticipated in any way. And so I guess we were just, I mean, for me, I hadn’t really put that much thought into it. Maybe this sounds terrible, but I didn’t really think that much about what it would be like to be a parent. And I had no plans, I had no ideas of how it should be, or the right way to do it or anything like that. I just kind of, I don’t want to speak for Kate, but I just made assumptions that like, okay, you have a kid, kid goes to daycare, until they’re old enough to go to kindergarten, and then they go to kindergarten. And so, we were following that path. And I think we’re lucky that we found out about this daycare pretty close to our house that was, I think, a generally positive thing for our daughter at the time. It’s a Montessori daycare. And it ended up having just some really wonderful teachers, but also some really wonderful friends, and several of whom live just within a couple blocks of us, and have become, in her short life, lifelong friends of our daughters. So, her closest friends in the neighborhood she’s been with since they were three months old, which thinking back on it, I’m like, oh my god, I can’t believe we dropped her off when she was three months old, and just went to the office. But you know, at the time, Kate and I were both in very busy parts of our careers. And I was very, very career focused. And, generally, our daughter did great with other kids, did great in daycare. And then there were a few times like towards the end when she was around five, and we were getting close to the kindergarten transition, she started having days where she just really didn’t want to go. And she would be literally kicking and screaming. I would literally carry her kicking and screaming, which is something that looking back on and I’m kind of mortified that I did. But my mindset at the time was, this is not optional. I've got to go to work. And you've got to go to school, this is the deal. Welcome to the world. And I really felt like I was leaving her in a safe place. And then we live about two blocks from a public school, and we are here in Minneapolis, and we really wanted to send her to that school, and we just kind of made that choice. We didn’t talk to her about it. We didn’t tour schools. And then it turned out most of the neighborhood kids including all her friends were going to the school that’s just a mile down the road but it’s in the suburban district. So, when she was at this school in kindergarten she didn’t know anybody there. And socio-economically and demographically the school that she went to for kindergarten is very different from her. And it was pretty rough. She encountered a lot of bullying. She encountered a lot of what was probably traumatic talk about what they call live shooter drills, and the discussion around that was extremely explicit and extremely scary. And so it was overall not a positive experience for her and within the first month, she was refusing to go and really upset about it. And we realized pretty quickly, though we did this whole, “No, you've got to go, there’s not a choice.” We did that for a little while and then finally she was literally just begging us to send her to the other school. And so we said okay, we’ll do that. It still didn’t occur to us that not going to school was an option. That was definitely not on the radar, but we were able to transfer her to the other school. They put her in the class with her friends, and she had this great group of friends. It seemed like everything was fine. It seemed like it was a total 180. We really didn’t have any more school refusal. The rest of the kindergarten year seemed good. And then we went through first grade and that seemed good. Summers were challenging because there’s this whole world of summer camps that’s super competitive and you have to sign your kid up for camps in January for the summer and my work schedule was so intense, and I was traveling a lot for work. So, Kate was alone with our daughter for a lot of the time. And so we signed her up for every week that we could. In retrospect, that was pretty intense. So, at the end of first grade. And while we went through first grade there were various signs, but nothing that was really telling us definitively that this is not working for her. And she really had a wonderful teacher in first grade, who really got her. And what we realized is that the teacher was really providing our daughter with a lot of accommodations, without her or us having to ask for them, and sort of would bend the rules of the school, just to make her more comfortable. And so that was super helpful and, and I think also pretty unusual. But after first grade ended that summer. We signed her up for a camp, a couple camps, and something happened in the course of that, where she really didn’t have a break at all between school and the camps, and she hit a wall, and we just started to see a dramatic, dramatic change in her. That was really frightening, because it was so intense. And so, at first it was not wanting to leave the house, I’m not going to go to camp, that sort of thing. Which was okay, by that point we were already into the pandemic so my travel had stopped and that was actually a big relief. I was still working a lot but I was at home, so it wasn’t like the end of the world if we couldn’t drop her off somewhere. But we started seeing a lot of physical aggression, and just anger and rage really. And it was something that was just very scary and challenging. And then that summer between first and second grade, she stopped wanting to get out of bed, and would not get out of bed the entire day. Wouldn’t comb her hair, bathe, brush teeth, none of those things were happening. It really felt like we’re in a crisis. And so, we sought medical help. But she wouldn’t go, she would not go to see a doctor. So we did virtual sessions with psychiatrists and that was extremely unhelpful. We were really approaching it through this medical model of, this is a crisis, our daughter is having some kind of like so far unexplained psychiatric episode. And like the psychiatrist basically said, you should commit her to some kind of inpatient thing. Everything about that just felt wrong to me. That was the point at which it was like, okay, we’re not going to talk to the psychiatrist anymore. This whole time I’d been Googling kind of ferociously trying to figure out what’s happening here. What I came across was all this content about PDA. It felt like, wow, this really sounded like it was describing what we were experiencing. So, I signed up for a class for parents who have PDA kids. And that was an interesting experience. On the one hand, it was like this huge relief because the class was from a parent who had gone through this experience and had taken a very scientific approach to trying to understand what was happening and how to readjust their lives to deal with this. In that class, which I generally had very mixed feelings about, but that’s the class where I heard the term unschooling for the first time. So to get to the question, I guess, that was definitely a phrase that I had never heard. In this class, there were 400 parents in this virtual class. I was just astonished at how many parents there were. And we would have these calls and the stories that people shared were all very similar, definitely very relatable. The thing I noticed is that everybody similar to us was approaching it as a crisis, like as a problem that has to be solved. One of the big lessons from the class was this is not something you can change. This is something you have to adapt to. So that definitely got me thinking and it was a real shift of mindset for me. It’s like, okay, this is it, life is not going to be the way we thought it was. And we have to make changes. And it was the facilitator of that class who first mentioned the term unschooling. There was lots of talk about homeschooling because so many of the kids whose parents were in this program were refusing or unable to go to school. In the school world, they label it school refusal. And I think the way I would talk about it now is just, unable to go to school really. So, then I started Googling unschooling and wondering, what the heck is this? Because I was not interested in being a teacher. I actually tried being a teacher in an early career. I had several, false starts, I guess I would say. And one of them was in education and I kind of left that thinking, okay, that is not something I can do. I am never going to do that again. My conception of homeschooling, and I think Anna, you were just talking about this in one of the recent discussions was like, homeschooling means you’re sitting at the kitchen table with workbooks and curriculum and you’re going through the whole thing. And I was like, I don’t want to do that. And I’m 99% sure that my daughter is not interested in that. And so that’s where the unschooling thing came in, I'd like to learn more about this. And so through Googling, I found this podcast (Exploring Unschooling) and it was a totally life-changing experience. I think just listening to the podcast, because I think the thing that really struck me is that I was immersed in this PDA community, which was very much using the medical model for looking at things and the deficit lens of looking at things. And then in the podcast, you all were taking this totally different lens. You’re not doing this because it’s a last resort and you have no other choice. It’s this intentional way of approaching life differently. And then just kind of turning all these things that I never questioned, like school is required and just asking, well, why? Let’s actually think about that. Is that actually true? What’s the goal of education and what are other ways of achieving that goal? And so just listening to stories of parents who were making this choice was really a really transformational experience. And then I went back into this class that I was taking, this class spanned a period of three months. And so in those three months was a huge learning for me, I would go back into these calls with these other parents and their voices are all just filled with panic and fear. And I was just like, I’m not feeling that anymore. When I went into it, I was all panic and fear. That was the deal. And then after listening, and I probably listened to like 150 episodes of the podcast, I’m just walking around the house, the headphones all day, just episode after episode, after episode, everything I’m doing, I’m listening to it. I was just like, I’m not afraid of this anymore. Then I joined the Network, really not knowing what to expect, but one thing that really struck me when I joined the Network is nobody in the network was using any of the same language that I had learned in my PDA curriculum that I had found. But a lot of people were describing similar things that sounded like similar experiences. And I was just like, wow, this is like a parallel universe over here where we’re dealing with the same human things, but this group of people is taking a completely different mindset and a completely different approach to it. It’s not a crisis. It’s not a problem. We’re just rolling with the phases of life and making adjustments that we have to make. I got really excited about unschooling and I was like, this is great. And then I wanted to be talking about it all the time, but I quickly found that people who are not unschooling are not interested in hearing about unschooling. That is a lesson I learned very quickly. So, it’s not something that we talked about at the park or at the neighborhood gatherings very much. So, that’s kind of the long winded story of how we arrived at this point. ERIKA: That gives me goosebumps. PAM: I know. I do appreciate you sharing the details of it because I mean, it is a very familiar journey for me. I remember the years, the two years where we had a great teacher. I was in the same place, working with my kids. I had no clue that this was a choice. This was something we had to figure out and having those teachers who were not as rigid and who saw my child and celebrated them and thought it was really cool and just accommodated. It was only night and day when then the next year you’ve got another teacher who was very, very fixated. But yeah, I super appreciate that whole journey and the comparison, the language and the approach, right. With these kids, I don't even like saying these kids, but with these kinds of situations, this way of moving through the world. We don’t see the deficit side because I hadn’t thought of it that way, but it is completely a choice. It’s like we’re introduced to it maybe because something has gone sideways. Because we grew up with the narrative of, this is the way we do things. We have kids, they go to daycare, they go to school, et cetera. And then something knocks us to ask that first question. But yeah, once you open that up and then you recognize all the different questions that you can ask and that shift to just being in the world with the people who are part of our families and, and it’s hard to explain fully respecting them and just living together and coming and going and, and understanding each other, and shifting to that perspective versus, oh my gosh, here’s all the accommodations I need to make to try to fix it. And then eventually, hopefully, they’ll work enough that we can go back to the life that we had. It’s still holding that because it’s revisiting the questions, revisiting the assumptions that we have been basing our life on that this is the good stuff to do. And what are all the things, even the super hard things, that we have to do to get ourselves back to that. ANNA: I think one of the things I really appreciate was you sharing the whole journey, because I think it will actually resonate with a lot of people. Just hearing how many people were in that PDA group is kind of amazing to me. But one of the things I love, when you first came to the Network and other people that have had a similar journey, because like you said, you’ll hear similar stories to yours very often in the Network, but it’s that first moment of relief, because I think so often you’re really focused on all the things that are happening that feel terrible. This is so serious, this is so terrible, but then really opening up to really seeing the gifts in your child. I mean, oh my gosh, from the beginning, your daughter just delighted me, she just had so many interesting things about her and the way she moved through the world. And I think when we can bring that perspective and I think parents are craving that, right? It’s why those teachers that were so kind felt so great because they saw the thing that you see in your child. And I think that is something that I love about the Network where we just celebrate all these amazing kids for the things that they bring to the table because it’s amazing. We don’t need to make everybody look the same and do the same thing. So, I loved that piece and just that little spark that happens when it’s like, yeah, she is amazing. And I love that we can be in a place where we can all see that. ERIKA: Yeah. When you’re too in the tunnel vision of a certain paradigm, the school paradigm where it has to look like this, and it’s not looking like this, and this is an emergency, it can be really hard to even imagine anything outside of that. But right, I feel like I remember when you first came to the Network, just the idea of what if there’s nothing wrong, actually, and we just are who we are and that’s okay. I think that feels so good, especially when we’re hearing all these messages about something being wrong. And then, for me, with my neurodivergent kids, I just have found being in the Network so validating and reinforcing and positive for me, because I just keep seeing all these similar experiences, they get it, they’ve been there with these same things. And everyone is just really appreciating the uniqueness of each of each child. And that just feels so much better. And I mean, we could try to fix things for our whole lives and just be in constant conflict, and nothing would necessarily even get better or change. And so, I think it’s just so much nicer to be in a nice relationship, in a positive relationship with their kids. And I know you’ve talked about a lot of shifts already. But the question I wanted to ask is, what has been like the biggest mindset shift for you in this journey so far? SAM: I think it’s got to be around the school. There are so many things around this. And I was thinking about this on the most basic level, just the idea that school was optional, or that there were different ways to approach it was a big learning. I think one thing that I left out of the story is that as we were approaching second grade, our daughter was enrolled. And as we were getting closer and closer, I just couldn’t picture how this was going to happen. I think at the end of the summer, on the day after Labor Day, which is when school starts, it was like, I don’t think things are going to be magically different. And we can't just pick up and go back to where we were. But our daughter was, I think she also had the message already ingrained that school was not optional. And so she did rally. We went and got her haircut, and we got clothes. And she went that first day. First, we went to the open house. And that went okay, and we met her new teacher. And then she went to the first day. And everyone in the school said that they were amazing. And that second day, she woke up, and she said, “I am not going back to that school.” And it was firm, this is the deal. And so then I went through a lot between that early September, and probably mid October, which is right around the time, this would have been 2024, which was right on the time that I joined the network. I was calling our daughter in sick every day. And keeping in touch with the school, having weekly calls with the school, trying to explain to them what’s going on. And then I switched her from the school district that we had enrolled her in, and had a virtual only. It is a really innovative virtual-only option that they developed during COVID, and then really invested a lot in. And it seemed really cool, actually. So we switched her to that program. And that did not help at all. She was not going to get on those classes. And she was not going to log in. But I had calls with the teacher every week. And the teacher told me, “I went through the same thing where my daughter refused to go to school. I am totally with you. I totally get it. I totally get where you are.” And I mean, these people at the school could not have been more supportive. But then as soon as we hit the 30 day mark, they were like, well, it’s been 30 days. And now we got to call the county, we got to get the county in there. Suddenly, it was like, okay, we’ve been accommodating, but time’s up, it’s been 30 days, and it can’t go on for this long. At that point, we had had our daughter assessed for neuropsychological evaluation and had all of these assessments done and found a really knowledgeable doctor who specialized in autism in girls. And I felt more confident that what our daughter really needed was rest, and was in a state of burnout that she was not going to recover from quickly. And the psychologist said you should think about it as a year, at least, that she’s going to be in this reduced-capacity state. But it wasn’t until the school said, we got to call the county, that I was like, okay, we've got to make a decision. And at that moment, the decision is we are not going to try to work through this medical deficit lens to try and get our daughter back on track to return to the environment which put her into this state. And so, I think it really took that for me to have that internal shift or transformational kind of moment of, we have to make a different decision. And so, from that point, instead of being like, okay, this unschooling thing sounds great and we’re gonna do this until we no longer have to, I think that’s where my mindset had been, and then I moved into more of what I would call acceptance of no, no, no, we’re going to really choose this path. And it wasn’t until that point that I really started to embrace unschooling and get excited about it and actually think about it as a deliberate choice. And I think the other shift that I think is important was more about me and my worries and my career, because I have always had this sense of financial insecurity and just kind of fear around that. When I was insisting that she go to school, forcing her to go to school, it’s true that I had to go to work and it’s true that my work was very busy and that I had to travel a lot for work, but I didn’t have to work that job. And that was really the way I had approached work. I worked really hard. Work was a top priority in my life before meeting Kate and thinking about having kids and all that. And I was achieving a lot of recognition and success at work and there was no part of me, any new opportunity that I was given at work I said yes to any new challenge I was given. I said yes to anything. If I was given negative feedback at work, I was going to overcome that and do whatever I had to do. And I just was in this mode of thriving on the validation systems of the corporate world and just moving up that ladder. And I had ended up in a leadership position and there was really no part of me that was like, this is optional or I don’t have to. It was like, no, I have to do this. And so, I think that when I started to go through the shift about school, it really made me think about, why am I spending so much time at work? When I was working from home, I had like 12-14 meetings back-to-back on Zoom every day. And I was anxious and frustrated all the time and I was super stressed out and it’s like, no matter how hard you work, there’s always more work. It's just never finished. And so, I started to think that I don’t have to have this career path. It just doesn’t have to be this way. And so, then I started making decisions at work to pull back from work and first I changed into a lower stress job. I stepped down from the leadership role and I took a different kind of role and then I reduced my hours and then eventually it was like, I’m just going to stop working. And there’s definitely a privilege involved with that and there was also, it really was in in the case of our family, I think it was a huge mindset mindset shift for me about how important work really is and how important money is and what you need to do versus what you want to do and all these different things. So that was like a pretty huge thing. And I think that’s the other piece. I often think this related to unschooling now, is that I feel like and I really like that the name of the network is Living Joyfully, because I feel like the term unschooling just doesn’t quite do it, because school is just one part of it or how we approach learning. It’s just one part of it. But really it’s been a total change of how I approach life on a daily basis, right? In big ways and in small ways and so that’s really just a huge transformation that this journey has involved for me. PAM: I love it and yes, the name of the Network was very intentional because absolutely unschooling was my window to this world. It was that the school was the first question when I eventually discovered that it wasn’t the law that there were other options than just dropping your kids off at school or else you go to jail. And it is just so brilliant how you asked that question. You start diving into that and how it opens up It’s like oh, well if I can question school, maybe I can question work. As I am questioning school I am starting to have different perspectives and thoughts about relationships and the value of relationships and the value of my child, a different way of seeing my child as a human being versus somebody I need to train and who needs to learn that you go to school and then that becomes work. I remember there was a season where I noticed when I was writing blog posts many years ago that every blog post I wrote that started about unschooling, obviously, by the end of a thousand words, fifteen hundred words was and that’s life because really the perspective can be applied across every aspect of life. It’s not just school, yes or no, when you want to dive deeper. When you discover it’s not so much that I need to fix all these things so that the kid can enjoy school so that I can enjoy work. Thinking there’s something wrong with me if I’m not making these conventional systems work for me versus questioning the systems in the first place And just I love the journey of how you tweaked it, right? It’s like oh, I’m gonna change my job to release some of the stress. Now I’m gonna lower my hours. That was the same approach with school, right? Those 30 days you’re just calling in sick because it’s keeping your doors open, keeping the possibilities open until there was a moment where that door is closing and now we really want to make an actual choice. Are we going to force through this or are we going to decide to step out of that system? ANNA: I think, for me, I mentioned at the top, questioning the prevailing narratives and I think that’s the big piece for me. We have a lot of narratives, school is a have to and school is hard, you just have to do hard things and work is hard and you have to do hard things and we need to be productive and all of these kinds of beliefs that end up not necessarily serving us individually or as a family but end up serving the system that we’re in. That is one of my favorite parts of this, really just questioning all of it and you may still choose to work in some way or to go to school in some way but boy does it feel different as a choice and an intentional path than it does as a have to and the drudgery. That is why it's called Living Joyfully, why we so intentionally chose that and why Pam really really resonated for me. It's questioning, why do we have to have these hard things? Why does life have to be hard? Why does work have to be hard? Why does school have to be hard? Maybe it doesn’t. And so once we can start asking that question and really examine the answers, I think everything changes so dramatically. ERIKA: Yeah, I love that your answer to the question is basically everything. I just completely changed into a new person. I totally remember that part of my journey as well. When it’s just this ripple effect of one little thing that doesn’t have to be like that and then it just all kind of ripples out from there and I just love it. PAM: One thing I just wanted to say, I think at first like when I remember way back when we started, when I first heard the term unschooling and you hear of people describing living joyfully, making choices from that perspective rather than, life is hard. We have to do these hard things. At first, I remember thinking- well, if I step back and start choosing not to do hard things, won’t my life or my kids be so boring because we won’t be doing all those things. But like Anna said, you’ve discovered and shared Sam, it’s that shift to the motivation behind the choices. The fact that they are now choices, we see our kids choosing to do hard things all the time. Challenging things that get them right up at the edge. Tipping over into frustration, but the fact that they’re choosing them intentionally makes all the difference in the world. That was just something out there because at first you can think oh well then we’re going to be doing nothing but that’s one of the feedback we get to our questions. We used to get so often well, they’re never gonna do anything if you don’t make it do these hard things, right? They do all kinds of things! ANNA: We’re about to wrap up, but I feel like because you’ve shared this journey I just want to and hopefully this isn't too much of a surprise. I know you’re about a year and a half into your unschooling journey, maybe just give a brief glimpse into, things really do feel better, right? Your daughter really feels better, you see her kind of coming back into the person you felt like before and even more so I just maybe that would help give the arc for people that are feeling like it’s hard and it’s scary right now. SAM: Yes, and I thank you for that opportunity because if I think back to where we were. If I think back to a year and a half ago, I was scared. I guess on the one hand I would hear stories of parents who’ve been through something similar and were in a different, better place now was helpful, but on the other hand the voice in my head was like, but that’s not going to be your situation. This is the rest of your life. And it was slow and I think you, Anna, said something really helpful to me at one point. We were probably six months in and I was saying something and I can’t remember what we were talking about but it was in one of our weekly calls. I was commenting on being in burnout and what it was going to be like after and you said, Sam, I think you have some thinking to do about what it means to be done with burnout or what is life going to be like after burnout? What does that even mean? That was super helpful and I’ve thought about that a lot because going into burnout felt very sudden. It just felt like one day we woke up and we were in a different universe. That’s how it felt. But when I think back, there were lots of signs. And if I go back and read, I’m a journaler, and if I go back and read my journal entries from three years ago, the signs are there in my journal or even from longer ago than that. So, it really wasn’t sudden and the sort of transition out and now our daughter does talk about how she was in burnout and she talks about that sometimes. She talks about it as in the past tense and sometimes. She’s still a little bit in there, but she knows she’s in a better place. It really is just very incremental one day at a time, but things have changed dramatically. And we’re just in it as a family. I think we’re just in a way, way, way better place and it doesn’t look anything like it looked before. I think it’s better than it was before but I could never have imagined or thought that this is what we would want. But now I just think things are great. I just feel more confident that we can deal with whatever challenges come up as they come up and we just have a new approach and a new lens for life. ANNA: I think one of the cool things about her and some of the other kids that we’ve seen transition in that way is just how they teach us how to regulate. I want to do this thing and then I want some time off and wait, I don’t want to do this thing. I’ve loved watching her journey of really understanding herself because I think she was pushing herself beyond her limits, sometimes with a little help from you all. But sometimes I think she was just reading the signs and saying okay, I need to do this. But now with this freedom you see her just being so intentional and expending a lot of energy on some things and then saying hey, I need to dial it back. I just feel like that’s great for all of us to learn and remember and normalize that that’s actually how humans like to move through the world. That fast, linear pace is really hard for most humans and our nervous system. So, I love what these kids have to teach us as well. I appreciate you just sharing a little bit more of that arc. Thank you so so much for being here. It’s been really interesting and powerful and I hope everyone enjoyed the conversation and maybe had their own kind of aha moment or just resonated with the feelings that we’ve been talking about. If you enjoy these kinds of conversations and want to come hang out with us. We’d love to have you join us on the Living Joyfully Network. We invite you to check it out and see if it fits with our free month trial and you’ll find the link in the show notes. And also at livingjoyfully.ca. The link will be on the home page. Thank you so much for being here and for everyone for joining us. PAM: Thanks so much, Sam.ERIKA: Thanks, Sam. SAM: Thank you.

Dans cet extrait, Victoire Haffreingue-Moulart, journaliste et autrice de l'ouvrage « Les rois du silence » (Robert Laffont), revient sur les causes profondes de l'explosion de la crise des violences dans le périscolaire, aujourd'hui si présente dans l'actualité.Elle nuance la notion de « me too des enfants », en insistant sur le fait que la parole des enfants n'a jamais vraiment manqué, mais que c'est surtout la capacité d'écoute et la vigilance des parents qui ont évolué. L'apparition de nombreuses affaires dans les médias, notamment à Paris, a servi de déclencheur en incitant d'autres familles à s'interroger, à dialoguer avec leurs enfants et à signaler des situations préoccupantes. Victoire rappelle que ces violences ne sont pas propres à la capitale et que le manque de transparence et la volonté de taire les affaires concernent malheureusement l'ensemble du territoire.Pour comprendre de l'intérieur, Victoire s'est faite recruter comme animatrice périscolaire sans expérience ni diplôme. Elle partage un récit saisissant de ses premiers jours : prise en charge immédiate d'un groupe d'enfants de maternelle sans réelle formation, sentiment d'improvisation et grande responsabilité envers leur sécurité. Elle souligne ainsi les failles d'un système où les animateurs sont trop souvent livrés à eux-mêmes.Cet extrait met en lumière les zones d'ombre du système périscolaire français et la nécessité urgente de dialogue, de transparence et d'engagement pour la sécurité des enfants.L'épisode intégral est à retrouver sur toutes les plateformes d'écoutes de podcast le 18/06/2026.

Je lui donne des solutions concrètes pour apaiser les journées… et sécuriser les nuits.Si toi aussi ton bébé ne s'endort que dans les bras, refuse son cododo ou a besoin d'une présence constante pour dormir, cet épisode est fait pour toi.

W kolejnym odcinku uSawickich dzielimy się radą, którą przekazujemy niemal każdej rodzinie zgłaszającej się do nas z trudnościami wychowawczymi.Żyjemy w świecie pełnym rozproszeń. Dzieci coraz częściej zmagają się z brakiem motywacji, samodyscypliny i odpowiedzialności, a my – jako rodzice – często nieświadomie wyręczamy je w codziennych obowiązkach. Odwozimy je do szkoły i na zajęcia, pomagamy się spakować, ubrać czy zorganizować dzień, bo tak jest szybciej i wygodniej.Problem w tym, że na dłuższą metę nie przynosi to efektów, na których nam zależy. Co więcej, odwrócenie tego procesu bywa bardzo trudne.W tym odcinku opowiadamy o jednym rozwiązaniu, które może stać się dla dziecka nie tylko drogą do odkrycia pasji, ale również skuteczną lekcją odpowiedzialności, wytrwałości i samodzielności. Mowa oczywiście o sporcie.Jednocześnie podkreślamy, że nie chodzi o realizowanie przez dzieci ambicji rodziców. To dziecko powinno chcieć uprawiać sport i czerpać z niego radość. Dlatego warto wspólnie szukać takich dyscyplin, które naprawdę odpowiadają jego zainteresowaniom i temperamentowi.Zapraszamy do wysłuchania odcinka!Jeśli po wysłuchaniu tego odcinka chcesz lepiej poznać to, co robimy na co dzień, koniecznie zajrzyj tutaj:

« L'enfant n'a pas besoin qu'on lui montre la nature, il a besoin de temps pour la vivre. »La nature n'est pas un simple décor pour l'enfance, elle en est un pilier fondateur.À travers cette pause éducative, Sylvie d'Esclaibes explore pourquoi la nature répond à des besoins fondamentaux chez l'enfant et comment, concrètement, elle nourrit son développement global.Depuis quelques années, les pédagogies actives en pleine nature connaissent un certain essor. Inspirées par les approches Montessori, Reggio, ou encore les “Forest Schools”, elles placent le vivant, l'expérimentation et le jeu libre au cœur des apprentissages. Dans cet épisode, Sylvie nous propose de comprendre pourquoi ces pédagogies actives en extérieur offrent un terrain d'épanouissement privilégié pour le développement global de l'enfant.3 points clés à retenir :➜ Le contact avec le vivant apaise le système nerveux, diminue le stress, améliore l'attention et développe la confiance en soi, la créativité et l'autonomie.➜ La nature permet aux enfants de bouger librement, d'explorer, de manipuler et d'expérimenter par eux-mêmes, ce qui favorise des apprentissages actifs et mémorables.➜ Les expériences régulières en extérieur encouragent l'observation du temps, la patience, la curiosité scientifique et une meilleure compréhension du monde, tout en renforçant la coopération et l'empathie entre enfants.Comment intégrer la nature dans le quotidien ? Voici quelques idées faciles à mettre en place :

« Ce qui marque les blessures, ce n'est pas les événements, c'est la façon dont on va les vivre. »Et si guérir nos blessures d'enfance était la clé pour accompagner nos enfants vers l'audace, l'émerveillement et la confiance ? À travers ce thème central, Arnaud Riou partage une vision renouvelée de la parentalité et de l'accompagnement de l'enfant.Arnaud Riou est auteur, enseignant spirituel et président de Terre Anima, une association qui soutient le message des peuples premiers au monde moderne. Il a consacré sa vie à transmettre les sagesses ancestrales (bouddhisme, chamanisme, traditions des peuples premiers) et à accompagner ceux qui aspirent à réconcilier leur vécu, leurs croyances et leur potentiel intérieur.Fort de plus de vingt ouvrages dont le dernier, « Incarnez vos 21 pouvoirs », il nous permet de mieux comprendre nos mécanismes de protection et d'attachement dès le plus jeune âge.Nous évoquons la notion d'enfant intérieur, l'impact des blessures précoces sur la vie d'adulte, mais aussi les cycles éducatifs inspirés des peuples premiers. Nous questionnons la parentalité, la compétition, l'autonomie, les liens familiaux, ainsi que le rôle clé de la confiance, de l'authenticité et du bonheur dans l'éducation.Arnaud partage enfin ses apprentissages sur la responsabilisation individuelle, l'importance de cultiver la liberté, et la façon dont les enfants, eux aussi, nous élèvent.On aborde des sujets essentiels tels que :➜ Identifier et transformer les blessures et schémas hérités➜ Restaurer la confiance, l'estime de soi et la capacité d'émerveillement➜ S'inspirer des rituels et du rapport à l'enfant dans les peuples premiers➜ Dépasser les modèles éducatifs fondés sur la punition, la récompense ou la compétition➜ Replacer le bonheur, la créativité et le lien au centre de notre accompagnement parentalRedonnons à nos enfants (et à nous-mêmes) la permission d'oser, d'expérimenter, de s'émerveiller, pour que grandir rime avec liberté intérieure et joie d'être soi.Au programme :(02:39) La notion d'enfant intérieur(04:16) Les origines concrètes des blessures d'enfance(06:01) Méthodes pour transformer ses blessures(07:20) La question du pouvoir d'interprétation(10:23) Les rituels éducatifs des peuples premiers : sécurité, autonomie, prise de risque(13:10) La question du collectif et du village pour grandir(15:28) Jeux, ennui et hyperstimulation : dangers et alternatives(19:23) Pourquoi les modèles éducatifs occidentaux génèrent isolement parental et compétition(24:30) Transmettre la confiance plutôt que la peur(36:23) L'argent, la spiritualité et le rapport au pouvoir dans la vie de familleRessource :Livre "Incarnez vos 21 pouvoirs" d'Arnaud Riou (éd.

Dans cet extrait, Arnaud Riou, auteur et enseignant spirituel, explore avec délicatesse les raisons qui rendent chacun de nous plus ou moins sensible à certaines blessures émotionnelles issues de l'enfance.Il explique que ce ne sont pas tant les événements vécus qui marquent, mais la manière singulière dont chaque personne les ressent et les perçoit, souvent dès la naissance, voire avant. Des sentiments profonds de rejet, d'abandon, d'injustice ou d'humiliation peuvent s'inscrire en nous et avoir un impact sur la confiance en soi à l'âge adulte.Il insiste également sur le fait que nos réactions d'aujourd'hui ne sont que l'écho de vieux programmes ancrés en nous, et que la première étape vers la transformation consiste à prendre conscience de ces scénarios intérieurs qui se répètent.Grâce au pouvoir d'interprétation, il devient alors possible de réécrire notre histoire, de se libérer de nos vieux réflexes et de porter un regard neuf sur nos expériences.Arnaud Riou illustre comment changer ces récits intérieurs, c'est reprendre la main sur sa vie et ouvrir la porte à de nouvelles ressources, retrouvant ainsi l'accès à notre liberté d'adulte.L'épisode intégral est à retrouver sur toutes les plateformes d'écoutes de podcast le 11/06/2026.

We are closing out the sixth season with our annual Summer Reads episode where we introduce books for you to check out over your summer. This summer, we have three suggestions. The first book is Implementing the Montessori Method: Learner-Centered Education From Birth Through Adolescence, co-written by Trisha Thompson-Wilingham and Susan Zoll. It offers readers a look into Montessori classrooms across the ages. The other two books are the result of transcription done by Jana Morgan Herman. Jana took the handwritten notes of Lakshmi Kripalani taken in the 1946 India course with Dr. Montessori in Karachi and transcribed them into two books: Book One: Practical Life and Book Two: Sensorial.

« On a tellement associé les enfants à des empêcheurs de vivre et de profiter de sa vie. Finalement, on a noirci énormément le tableau. »Pourquoi aujourd'hui la maternité semble-t-elle si rarement associée à la joie dans les discours actuels ? Cet épisode interroge nos représentations de la parentalité et célèbre ses joies, sans nier ses difficultés bien réelles.Audrey Jougla est professeure de philosophie et autrice du livre "La maternité joyeuse" (Stock). À travers son regard aiguisé, elle interroge les mythes et réalités liés à la maternité : de la déconstruction nécessaire du discours sacrificiel, à la célébration (sans naïveté) de l'intensité du bonheur caché dans le quotidien.Elle revient sur ce qui rend la parentalité extraordinairement exigeante, mais aussi source d'un véritable épanouissement. Elle nous embarque dans ses réflexions sur le renoncement, le bouleversement de la vie personnelle, la solitude des jeunes parents, la nécessité d'un changement sociétal, mais surtout l'importance de réhabiliter la beauté simple de la vie avec les enfants.On interroge également la place des pères, le manque de valorisation des métiers en lien avec l'enfance, et l'enjeu du temps accordé à nos enfants.Quelques idées abordées :✅ Comment l'isolement, l'absence de modèles et l'organisation urbaine renforcent les difficultés des mères✅ Ce que l'histoire et la législation des modes de garde disent de la place donnée aux tout-petits en France✅ Comment passer du sentiment de renoncement à l'acceptation et à la conciliation dans sa trajectoire de mère✅ Pourquoi valoriser autrement le temps parental et le rôle des pères est urgentCet épisode nous donne des clés pour vivre et reconnaître la beauté de la maternité, sans occulter les difficultés, dans une société qui valorise trop peu ce temps précieux avec les enfants.Programme de l'épisode :(02:53) La nécessité de redonner une place à la joie dans le discours sur la maternité(04:34) Le besoin du temps de dénonciation et de revendications pour les femmes(06:02) Pourquoi la célébration de la maternité est devenue suspecte, presque naïve(08:39) La beauté discrète de la maternité : apprendre à voir le bonheur dans les petites choses(12:07) L'isolement, la fatigue, et la difficile réalité du premier enfant(16:27) De l'acceptation du renoncement à la conciliation et à l'exploration de nouvelles joies(19:47) Les différences d'expérience entre le premier et le deuxième enfant, et l'enjeu du temps parental(24:41) Une histoire oubliée des modes de garde en France, et ses enjeux actuels(29:25) La reconnaissance sociale, et la nécessité de revaloriser le travail auprès des jeunes enfants(41:23) Comment la maternité transforme le regard sur le monde, la société, et change les prioritésRessource :Livre : "La maternité joyeuse" d'Audrey Jougla (Éd.

Dans cet extrait, Audrey Jougla, autrice du livre "La maternité joyeuse" (Stock), nous éclaire sur l'histoire méconnue de la garde des jeunes enfants en France, des nourrices du XVIIIe siècle aux premières crèches ouvertes aux enfants des milieux populaires.À travers ses recherches, elle retrace l'évolution des normes, des pratiques et des enjeux auxquels étaient confrontées les familles, mettant en lumière la manière dont un certain modèle s'est progressivement imposé, souvent au prix d'une mise à distance des tout-petits.Elle questionne le système actuel, qu'elle juge trop précoce dans la séparation mère-enfant et peu adapté aux besoins des familles et des enfants. Audrey insiste notamment sur la nécessité de repenser la place de la petite enfance, la reconnaissance des métiers liés à ce secteur ainsi que la valorisation du lien et du maternage, tout en comprenant les aspirations professionnelles des mères.Un regard historique et sociétal qui invite à réévaluer nos choix collectifs.L'épisode intégral est à retrouver sur toutes les plateformes d'écoutes de podcast le 04/06/2026.

"Quand un enfant joue, il ne fait pas rien. Il raconte souvent énormément de choses de lui".Et si, en observant les histoires inventées, les personnages choisis, les gestes parfois répétitifs, on décodait un véritable langage émotionnel ? Le jeu est bien plus qu'un simple passe-temps. Il s'agit d'un véritable langage qui permet à l'enfant d'exprimer ce qu'il ne sait pas encore formuler avec des mots. Les émotions, qu'elles soient de la joie, de la colère ou de la peur, s'expriment souvent à travers les scénarios qu'il invente et les rôles qu'il adopte.Dans cet épisode, Sylvie d'Esclaibes nous partage ses observations sur le rôle du jeu dans la compréhension et l'accompagnement des émotions enfantines.Qu'il s'agisse de scénarios de séparation, de jeux de rôle où l'on devient « le méchant », de courses effrénées ou d'une bataille de coussins, ces instants recèlent une incroyable richesse intérieure. Loin d'être anodins, ils révèlent parfois ce que l'enfant traverse ou cherche à comprendre, telle "une digestion émotionnelle". Pourquoi certains enfants rejouent-ils encore et encore la même scène ? Comment accueillir ces rituels, sans surinterpréter, ni couper leur élan créatif ?Pour accompagner l'enfant dans le jeu :1️⃣ Observer attentivement et sans jugement : quels jeux reviennent souvent ? Quelles émotions semblent dominer dans les mises en scène ou les répétitions ?2️⃣ Accueillir l'imaginaire : résister à la tentation de « corriger » ou « cadrer » sans nécessité3️⃣ Proposer des espaces de décharge : parcours moteurs, jeux de poursuite, rituels de rire4️⃣ Mettre des mots sur ce que l'on perçoit (« Cette poupée a l'air très en colère… »), sans surinterpréterAccompagner l'enfant dans son jeu, c'est lui offrir un terrain sûr pour explorer, comprendre et apaiser son monde intérieur.Pour approfondir le sujet, Sylvie recommande deux lectures :« Qui veut jouer avec moi ? », de Lawrence Cohen (préface par Isabelle Filliozat)« Développer le lien parent-enfant par le jeu », d'Aletha Solter

In this episode, Steve and Ben sit down with Fredrik Haren - the Creativity Explorer - for a conversation that's been months in the making. It's a wide-ranging, thought-provoking dive into what creativity really is, where it comes from, and why our assumptions about it might be completely wrong.Fredrik Haren has spent 25 years studying human creativity across the globe, visiting 15 to 35 countries a year, from North Korea to Silicon Valley, interviewing thousands of people across cultures, industries, and disciplines. He's the author of The Idea Book (250,000+ copies sold) and The World of Creativity, and defines himself not as an expert, but as an explorer.In this episode we cover:- Why Fredrik says schools don't kill creativity, parents do (and what that actually means)- The Icelandic word for "curious" that will change how you think about learning- What North Korea taught Fredrik about collective creativity and why "one + one = big one"- The hidden etymology of curiosity, creativity, and education and why words matter- The Montessori mindset shift that every teacher and parent needs to hear- Why ego is the enemy of your best ideas and how divine ideas work- The Japanese concept Kaitakusha (培拓者): cultivating the future, not just pioneering it- Fredrik's mother's single greatest piece of advice for raising creative children-Why "lifelong learning" has lost its meaning and what to say insteadWhy you should listenWhether you're a classroom teacher, school leader, EdTech professional, or parent, this episode challenges the narratives we've inherited about creativity, curiosity, and the purpose of education. Fredrik brings global perspective, etymology deep-dives, and genuinely surprising ideas that will make you rethink how you support learners and yourself.Chapters00:00 - Introduction & what's been happening this week02:07 - Meet Fredrik Haren: The Creativity Explorer04:45 - Do schools kill creativity?

What would it take for you to go all in on your preschool dream? For Janina Abrams, it was a phone call that changed everything. After 25 years in the classroom, a new principal suddenly moved her out of the position she loved—and that was the final straw. She'd already been dreaming of opening a preschool... but now? It was time. She quit her job, joined Preschool All Stars, and said, “This is my birthday, Christmas, everything for the next year—I'm all in.” Now she's mapping out her new Montessori-inspired preschool, exploring local buildings, and finally planning the hands-on, play-based program she always believed in. Find out how she did it: • The unexpected moment that pushed her to resign • How she's using her 25 years of experience to build her dream • What she said to herself (and her husband!) before taking the leap Please rate and review us at Apple Podcasts.

« On a du mal à se dire en France que les enfants sont des êtres compétents, sont des êtres détenteurs de droits. »Pourquoi tolère-t-on l'exclusion des enfants là où celle de tout autre groupe social serait jugée inacceptable ?Cet épisode décortique la montée des espaces “No Kids” et interroge nos propres représentations sociales de l'enfance.Il s'agit d'un extrait de l'évènement "Choisir une voie alternative au 'No Kids'" (Gaîté Lyrique, 16 avril), organisé par Grandir ici, un mouvement que je porte avec Aurélie Grêlé-Rouveyre.Pour explorer le sujet, j'ai la chance d'accueilir autour de la table plusieurs invités aux regards complémentaires :-Joëlle Sicamois, directrice de la Fondation pour l'Enfance-Delphine Solière, directrice éditoriale chez Bayard Jeunesse et Milan-Vincent Lagarde, chercheur spécialiste en entrepreneuriat à l'université de Limoges et auteur de la première étude française sur les offres Adult Only-Tristan Debray, entrepreneur social et ancien élu dédié à la ville des enfants à Lyon.Lors de cette table ronde, nous avons décrypté les mécaniques sociales et économiques derrière l'essor du « No Kids », mais aussi ses impacts sur la société, les familles et la place de l'enfant dans l'espace public.Nous revenons sur le poids de la fatigue parentale, la crise de la représentation de l'enfance, la transformation de nos villes et la situation préoccupante des politiques publiques. Vous découvrirez pourquoi certains parents plébiscitent malgré tout ces espaces, comment l'enfant est devenu quasi invisible dans l'espace public, et surtout, quelles pistes dessiner pour réintégrer les plus jeunes dans la vie collective.Au programme de l'épisode :✅ À quoi ressemble le véritable business du « No Kids » en France et à l'international✅ Pourquoi la demande ne vient pas seulement de personnes sans enfants, mais aussi de parents épuisés✅ Les liens entre la crise de la parentalité, les peurs sociétales et le repli sur soi✅ Les impacts de l'invisibilité croissante des enfants dans la société et dans l'espace public✅ Comment des villes comme Lyon essaient de replacer l'enfant au cœur de la cité✅ Les paradoxes entre injonctions à la natalité et rejet des enfants dans le quotidien✅ Ce que veut dire « bien éduquer un enfant » aujourd'hui et pourquoi la participation des enfants à la vie publique est essentielle✅ Les bénéfices très concrets pour tous de penser des espaces à hauteur d'enfant, et de conserver une mixité intergénérationnelleGrandir ici est une initiative portée par Les Adultes de Demain (Stéphanie d'Esclaibes) et Place de l'Enfance (Aurélie Grêlé-Rouveyre).

Dans cet extrait, je donne la parole à Vincent Lagarde, chercheur spécialiste en entrepreneuriat à l'université de Limoges et auteur de la première étude française sur les offres Adult Only.Il s'agit d'un extrait de l'évènement "Choisir une voie alternative au 'No Kids'" (Gaîté Lyrique, 16 avril), organisé par Grandir ici, un mouvement que je porte avec Aurélie Grêlé-Rouveyre.Vincent Lagarde nous partage les premiers éléments chiffrés sur la montée de la tendance "No Kids" en France et à l'international. Il analyse l'essor des offres “adult only” dans le secteur touristique et hôtelier, en précisant leur rentabilité croissante, les profils qui les sollicitent, ainsi que l'évolution rapide du phénomène dans plusieurs pays.Il met également en lumière la spécificité française, marquée par une forme de culpabilité autour de l'exclusion des enfants, contrairement à d'autres pays où cette segmentation est déjà largement intégrée, et s'interroge sur l'impact de ce mouvement, qui altère la place des familles et des enfants dans l'espace public.Mais également la place des femmes dans la société : si ces dispositifs excluent prioritairement les enfants, ils conduisent aussi indirectement à exclure les femmes, en particulier les mères, de l'espace public, renforçant ainsi certains ressorts misogynes déjà à l'œuvre dans la société. L'exemple coréen, évoqué dans ses travaux, montre comment la disparition des enfants entraîne celle des femmes dans certains quartiers, réduisant la diversité sociale et accentuant l'isolement.L'épisode intégral est à retrouver sur toutes les plateformes d'écoutes de podcast le 28/05/2026.Grandir ici est une initiative portée par Les Adultes de Demain (Stéphanie d'Esclaibes) et Place de l'Enfance (Aurélie Grêlé-Rouveyre).

For parents, summer can feel like the longest season for a reason. When the predictable rhythms of the school year disappear, children can feel restless, leading to the "June spikes" in meltdowns we all know too well.In this Season 4 finale, Terry Dubow sits down with Siri Panday to discuss how to keep the magic of summer alive without over-scheduling or burning out. They explore the Montessori secret to a peaceful summer: working beside your child instead of for them, and finding the beauty in a slower pace.In this episode, we discuss:The "June Shift": Why kids struggle when school scaffolding disappears and how to build a sturdy home rhythm.The Gift of Boredom: Reframing unstructured time as a vital opportunity for discovery.Parallel Work: Practical ways to invite toddlers and primary students into "real work" (laundry, gardening, cooking) so you can get things done while they learn.The "Slow Down" Rule: Why rushing is the enemy of summer magic.Farewell to Siri: A tribute to Siri's impact on the Marin Montessori community as she prepares for her next chapter.

« On a tous été enfant, mais on ne s'en souvient presque jamais. »Comment renouer avec cette expérience universelle qui fait de nous, un jour ou l'autre, des êtres « décalés » au sein d'un monde pensé par et pour les adultes ?Dans cet épisode, Clémentine Beauvais partage sa réflexion sur l'enfance, cette condition de minorité que nous avons tous et toutes vécue, fondatrice pour chacun de nous. Une condition pourtant souvent oubliée à l'âge adulte.Autrice engagée et enseignante-chercheuse en sciences de l'éducation, elle publie “L'enfance, qu'est-ce que ça change ?” (Éditions Labor et Fides), un livre qui invite à repenser l'enfance non seulement comme une période individuelle mais comme une expérience commune, sociale et politique.Pourquoi les enfants sont-ils systématiquement perçus comme “dérangeants” ? Pourquoi le confort des adultes prévaut-il si souvent sur la sécurité ou le bien-être des plus jeunes ?Ensemble, nous parlons du manque d'espaces intergénérationnels, des sociétés où l'enfant reste “l'autre de l'adulte”, et de la puissance de cette altérité souvent jugée problématique.Clémentine partage des pistes très concrètes pour renouer avec l'enfance, créer des espaces communs, et valoriser l'imprévisible de la relation enfant-adulte.À retenir de cet échange :➜ Penser l'enfance comme altérité universelle : nous avons tous occupé, un jour, une place « décalée ». Se rappeler cette expérience collective efface les frontières entre « eux » et « nous ».➜ L'importance des espaces pensés pour tous : comment l'environnement urbain privilégie (encore trop souvent) le confort de l'adulte, parfois au détriment de la sécurité et de la liberté de mouvement de l'enfant.➜ La participation souvent oubliée ou mal perçue des adultes non-parents dans la vie des enfants, et la richesse des collaborations intergénérationnelles.➜ Que peuvent-nous apporter les enfants ? La présence des enfants bouscule les routines, mais ouvre aussi à des façons inédites de voir, d'écouter, d'apprendre. Accueillir cette imprévisibilité, c'est enrichir le collectif, pas seulement l'enfant.Ressources citéesLivres : « L'Enfance, qu'est-ce que ça change ? » de Clémentine Beauvais et « La maternité, qu'est-ce que ça change ? » d'Ingrid ToboisAssociation "Lire et Faire Lire"Et si nous nous inspirions de l'enfance pour en faire une force politique et créative, capable de renouveler nos visions du monde et nos façons de vivre ensemble ?Au programme :(01:27) Pourquoi écrire sur l'enfance ?(03:20) L'enfance, expérience politique et sociale(05:25) Grandir “décalé”, la norme adulte, souvenirs d'altérité(06:50) Existe-t-il des sociétés centrées sur l'enfance ?(08:43) La petitesse comme puissance : percevoir le monde autrement(13:41) Quand le confort de l'adulte prime sur la sécurité de l'enfant(17:19) La question du “dérangement” et la marginalisation dans l'espace public(23:00) Créer plus de relations intergénérationnelles(30:11 Le rôle des récits, livres et expériences communes pour tisser le lien(38:24) Ce que Maria Montessori a compris sur la temporalité et la présence de l'enfant

Dans cet extrait, Clémentine Beauvais, autrice du livre "L'enfance, qu'est-ce que ça change ?" (Éditions Labor et Fides) questionne la manière dont notre société compartimente la relation aux enfants en la limitant souvent au rôle des parents ou des enseignants.Elle met en lumière l'importance et la beauté des amitiés entre adultes et enfants, soulignant combien ces liens, détachés des rapports d'autorité ou de filiation, offrent aux plus jeunes de nouveaux repères et libertés.Elle évoque les figures de marraine, parrain, oncle, tante ou ami de la famille, rappelant leur place essentielle dans la construction de l'enfant et l'ouverture au monde.Selon elle, il s'agit de valoriser la diversité des relations intergénérationnelles en dehors de toute hiérarchie, de retrouver la confiance dans la proximité adulte-enfant, et de multiplier les occasions de partage autour d'expériences culturelles, créatives ou simplement quotidiennes.Cette redécouverte de l'amitié entre générations est aussi un enjeu de société : ouvrir les enfants à d'autres horizons, permettre aux adultes de nourrir leur curiosité et de percevoir différemment le monde, tisser de nouveaux liens de collaboration et d'émerveillement commun.L'épisode intégral est à retrouver sur toutes les plateformes d'écoutes de podcast le 21/05/2026.

"Le jeu le plus important est celui que l'enfant initie lui-même, c'est-à-dire le jeu libre."Le jeu est le langage naturel de l'enfant. À travers le jeu, l'enfant explore le monde, exprime ses émotions, développe son imagination et construit peu à peu sa compréhension de lui-même et des autres. C'est en jouant qu'il apprend à résoudre des problèmes, à coopérer, à gérer ses frustrations, mais aussi à oser prendre des initiatives. Le jeu libre est souvent relégué au second plan, éclipsé par des emplois du temps chargés et des activités dirigées. Pourtant, laisser l'enfant maître de son jeu est un puissant moteur de développement, d'autonomie et de confiance. Dans cet épisode, Sylvie d'Esclaibes explore la différence fondamentale entre « occuper un enfant » et lui permettre de jouer librement, sans attentes ni consignes.Souvent, en tant qu'adultes, nous ressentons une forme de culpabilité à ne pas être assez présents dans les jeux de nos enfants, ou à ne pas leur proposer suffisamment d'activités. Pourtant, la clé n'est pas dans la quantité d'activités dirigées.Le véritable enjeu : laisser nos enfants inventer, expérimenter, s'ennuyer, sans intervenir à chaque instant. Sylvie souligne : moins l'adulte intervient, plus l'enfant se construit. L'ennui devient alors un déclencheur de créativité, une opportunité pour développer logique, autonomie, confiance corporelle ou encore capacité d'imagination.Quelques pistes concrètes à la maison ou à l'extérieur :✅ Réduire le nombre de jouets à disposition et les rendre accessibles sans consignes✅ Accepter l'ennui comme déclencheur d'imagination✅ Aménager des espaces différenciés, peu chargés✅ Observer et se retirer davantage pour laisser l'enfant maître de ses jeux✅ En extérieur : jouer avec les éléments naturels, cabanes en forêt, collectes libresPour approfondir le sujet, Sylvie recommande deux lectures :« Qui veut jouer avec moi ? », de Lawrence Cohen« Développer le lien parent-enfant par le jeu », d'Aletha SolterNotre rôle n'est pas de tout prévoir, mais de faire confiance à la capacité de nos enfants à grandir dans, et par, le jeu libre. C'est en les laissant expérimenter, se tromper, recommencer, que nous leur permettons de se construire.

Aujourd'hui, on dénonce ce kidnapping marketing de la méthode Montessori.Dans cet épisode, tu vas découvrir :Pourquoi Maria Montessori serait effarée par l'industrie actuelle de la puériculture.Que la base de sa méthode ne repose pas sur des objets, mais sur la posture de l'adulte ("Aide-moi à faire seul").Ce que la science du développement dit vraiment des jouets "éducatifs" (spoiler : l'Académie Américaine de Pédiatrie préfère largement les objets simples).Pourquoi Montessori n'est pas une "méthode éducative" (n'en déplaise à TikTok) et comment cette gentrification masque la réalité des conflits familiaux derrière un filtre beige.Comment appliquer Montessori chez toi aujourd'hui, avec un budget de zéro euro.Références : Ce Focus s'appuie sur les origines historiques de la pédagogie, les recherches d'Angeline Stoll Lillard (validation scientifique de la méthode) et les rapports officiels de la pédiatrie sur le jeu de l'enfant.--------------------------------------------------Le site du podcast : https://papatriarcat.fr/Pour t'abonner à la newsletter : https://cedricrostein.substack.comRéagir à l'épisode : https://www.speakpipe.com/papatriarcatPour vous abonner à des contenus exclusifs : https://papatriarcat.supercast.com/Pour un accompagnement personnel : https://www.cedricrostein.com *******************************************Crédit musiques : www.bensound.comCrédit dialogue : BRUT - le sexisme chez les enfants (youtube)Soutenez ce podcast http://supporter.acast.com/papatriarcat.

« Un enfant dans la vraie vie a vu beaucoup plus de diversité que dans les livres. »Pourquoi la littérature jeunesse est-elle un miroir révélateur, et parfois déformant, de nos représentations du monde ? J'ai le plaisir de recevoir Laura Pironnet pour interroger notre rapport aux albums jeunesse, leur influence et surtout notre responsabilité face aux clichés, à la diversité et au plaisir de lire.Professionnelle de l'édition et amoureuse de littérature jeunesse, Laura Pironnet partage depuis plusieurs années ses découvertes et réflexions dans la newsletter “À Voix Haute”. Elle y milite pour une littérature jeunesse plus variée et authentique, défait les idées reçues sur ce secteur et met en avant les enjeux qui le traversent : caricaturisation des enfants, sous-représentation de la diversité, stéréotypes persistants.Dans cet épisode, j'explore avec Laura tout ce que la littérature jeunesse dit de notre société et de la façon dont nous voyons l'enfance. Elle nous explique pourquoi relire ses livres d'enfant à l'âge adulte permet un nouveau regard, et comment accompagner le plaisir de lire, qui disparait souvent à l'adolescence. On évoque aussi l'importance d'offrir aux enfants des ouvrages dans lesquels ils peuvent réellement se reconnaître, ou s'ouvrir à d'autres réalités.Vous découvrirez :✅ Pourquoi la représentation des enfants dans les livres reste si souvent caricaturée (petit garçon “ronchon”, ados renfermés…)✅ Comment les clichés de genre et l'absence de diversité persistent dans l'édition jeunesse✅ L'écueil des livres “trop moralisateurs” et l'importance de lire pour le plaisir✅ Pourquoi il est essentiel de demander à l'enfant ce qu'il comprend et ressent face à une histoire✅ Les bienfaits de la littérature jeunesse pour s'ouvrir aux autres et sur le monde✅ Les classiques incontournables recommandés par Laura PironnetAu programme :(00:49) Pourquoi la littérature jeunesse est-elle si peu valorisée ?(03:29) Les adultes peuvent-ils lire de la littérature jeunesse ?(05:25) La littérature jeunesse, miroir de nos représentations(06:45) Stéréotypes, absence de diversité et responsabilité des éditeurs(10:05) Les contes, leur héritage et comment les aborder aujourd'hui(13:26) Les grands classiques à faire découvrir aux enfants(16:14) Faut-il continuer à lire à voix haute à son enfant qui sait lire ?(17:43) Lecture plaisir vs. lecture devoir : sortir de la case “performance”(23:47) Comment choisir dans la jungle éditoriale(27:31) Loup, sorcière, figure du méchant : questionner les rôles types(30:41) Questionner l'approche pédagogique dans la littérature jeunesseRessources citéesNewsletter À Voix Haute de Laura PironnetAuteurs et livres cités : Roald Dahl (Mathilda, Charlie et la chocolaterie, ....), Claude Ponti (Blaise et le château d'Anne Hiversère), “Devine combien je t'aime” de Sam McBratney, "Alice au pays des merveilles" de Lewis Carroll.Un épisode qui nous invite à renouveler notre regard sur la littérature jeunesse, pour offrir aux enfants (et à nous-mêmes) des histoires qui élargissent nos horizons, suscitent l'envie et ouvrent le dialogue. Bien loin des clichés conservés par habitude.

Dans cet extrait, Laura Pironnet, passionnée de littérature jeunesse et professionnelle de l'édition, revient sur la pression qui entoure la lecture en France.Souvent perçue comme une activité intellectuelle et valorisée, nous oublions parfois l'essentiel : la joie de partager une histoire, d'éveiller la curiosité ou simplement de vivre un moment ensemble.Laura nous rappelle que lire à un enfant n'a pas à être une contrainte et que chacun, parent comme enfant, mérite de retrouver du plaisir dans ce rituel.Elle encourage à ne pas se forcer, à trouver des alternatives si besoin, et à montrer aux enfants l'exemple en lisant soi-même, même juste quelques pages ou quelques images, afin que la lecture demeure avant tout un moment partagé et naturel dans la vie de famille.À travers sa newsletter "À Voix Haute", elle milite pour accorder aux enfants la liberté de se reconnaître dans des histoires variées, à cultiver le plaisir de lire et à faire de la littérature jeunesse un miroir du monde dans toute sa diversité.L'épisode intégral est à retrouver sur toutes les plateformes d'écoutes de podcast le 14/05/2026.

From a toy brand built around functional products for kids, to a niche supplement company scaling through Amazon and TikTok Shop, to a lawn and garden brand navigating Vendor Central, 3P selling, Walmart, and AI-driven advertising, this conversation covers a wide range of seller experiences. First, we hear how one founder combined an engineering background from MIT, toy industry experience, and digital marketing skills to build the kids' toy brand Quiggly that hit $850,000 in its first full year. Her hero product, a functional toy spray mop, came from identifying long-tail keyword demand around Montessori-style toys and creating a standalone product customers were already searching for. Her biggest lesson: product-market fit matters more than launching a wide product catalog. Next, Bradley talks with a supplement brand owner who has been selling on Amazon since 2016 and later saw major growth through TikTok Shop. He shares how niching down, solving the customer's “next problem,” and building AI-focused content systems helped drive traffic from LLMs and answer engines. From schema markup to press releases, Reddit research, and modular blog content, his strategy shows how brands can start preparing for the future of search. Finally, we hear from an experienced e-commerce director managing large lawn and garden brands across Vendor Central, Amazon advertising, and Walmart. She breaks down the operational differences between 1P and 3P, how Born to Run works, why content contributions can be difficult for brands, and how tools like Pacvue, Amazon Performance Plus, Brand Plus, and Claude are helping her team improve advertising and listing optimization. The episode closes with a clear reminder: whether you're launching your first product or managing millions in revenue, success comes from understanding your customer, validating demand, and adapting quickly to new tools and platforms.
