  • Preparing the Environment
    Aug 19 2025

    Preparing the environment is just a fancy way of saying setting up the environment for your kid (or yourself!) to be successful. Preparing the environment doesn’t guarantee that your kid will do the thing independently, but it does make it possible! It’s like building the foundation of the house.

  • Understanding Giftedness
    Aug 12 2025

    In this episode, we are going to jump into a topic that we have had on our list forever- giftedness. Giftedness is often misunderstood and can even be contentious. So let’s get into it. What is giftedness? How is giftedness measured? Why is giftedness a neurodivergence? And why is giftedness being a neurodivergence contentious?
