  • Episode 43: Unlocking Potential: The Power of Executive Function Coaching for Kids and Teens
    In this episode, Bettina welcomes Belinda Edington, an expert in Executive Function coaching and Managing Director of Mindspark, a social enterprise dedicated to developing these critical skills in children and young people. Belinda explains what Executive Functions are—such as planning, organisation, and self-regulation—and discusses the factors that can impact their development.   She differentiates Executive Function coaching from therapy or tutoring, emphasising how it empowers individuals to rewire their brains through positive habits. This conversation is especially valuable for parents of children with ADHD, as well as any parent whose child struggles with Executive Function skills. Belinda also highlights the growing role of coaching as a supportive and effective resource for families.   If you’re considering coaching for your child or simply want to better understand how to support their development, this episode offers practical insights and guidance.

  • Episode 40: Serve, Catch, Return: Revolutionizing Parent-Child Relationships with Hilary Kennedy
    I have been excited about this episode as I interviewed the incredible and inspiring Hilary Kennedy who developed Video Interactive Guidance (VIG) which has such a strong evidence base for making change. She talks us through some transformative and often counterintuitive strategies for building stronger relationships with our kids. Learn about the "serve, catch, return" approach from video interaction guidance (VIG) and discover how doing less and having more fun can lead to deeper connections. Hilary introduces the "love, play, work" framework, and explains the "take five" concept for more meaningful conversations. Whether you're a parent of a newborn, a teenager, or anywhere in between, this episode has something for everyone.
