This week on Wine With Wita, I’m excited to welcome back Donna Berry. Donna was the very first guest on the podcast, and it feels like a beautiful full-circle moment to have her as the final guest of 2024.
In this episode, Donna shares her profound insights into the crucial first nine months of life—starting from a mum’s pregnancy—and how these formative months shape who a child becomes.
We explore how understanding a baby’s connection to their mum during pregnancy provides a window into their development, emotional health, and behaviour.
Donna’s wisdom doesn’t stop there. We also dive into:
✨ Why supporting a parent’s needs is vital to supporting a
child’s growth.
✨ The ripple effects of safe, nurturing relationships for
families.
✨ The services and resources mums need to foster connection and optimal development for their children.
Donna’s work was a huge inspiration for me when I created RS Speech Pathology; I couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity to share her groundbreaking perspectives with you.
You can connect with Donna on LinkedIn or Facebook.
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas! We will be back with new episodes as of the new year, bringing even more incredible conversations your way.
