158: Executive Function with Seth Perler
Seth from sethperler.com is an executive function and 2e coach who helps make life easier for students who struggle with homework, motivation, organization, grades, focus, study skills, time management, emotions, overwhelm & resistance. He helps complicated, atypical, outside-the-box learners turn it around in a baffling system so they can launch a successful future. His blog gives you game-changing answers in a sea of misguided educational fluff.
There’s no instruction book for how to help your child navigate school. Traditional interventions often FAIL because they don’t get to the ROOT of a child’s problems and they’re often based on MISINFORMATION. Consequently, maladaptive patterns get WORSE each year, leading to pervasive difficulties transitioning into adulthood. That’s the opposite of what education should do, and the sooner you get tools, the better.
Parents feel frustrated spinning their wheels trying to help. There’s no time for this, life isn’t a dress rehearsal. families need tools that are 1) practical, and 2) that recognize a child’s unique needs. Seth’s blog is all about how to help, and the key is understanding executive function.
Join Seth’s Free 3-day summit to learn how to better support your child from heart-centered experts and thought leaders.

157: The Visual Art Academy with Brenda Mullard
Brenda Mullard has been a licensed art teacher for students in grades K – adult for over 20 years. She has just recently earned her certification as an Integrated Arts Specialist and been given the title of a distinguished educator.
She believes that all children should be able to have the arts as part of their life. Kids need to be able to play and experiment with creating and making using different art mediums and materials. Through this experimentation, children develop creative problem-solving techniques that will benefit them throughout their entire life.
Because so many art programs are being cut in schools all over the world it is important to her to be able to bring kids art education online in the comfort of their own home and at a time that works for them as well as their families. Take a look at what she has to offer online.
