Description

In this episode Shelley Clarke chats with Tara Broughan, Mother of two, Parent Mentor and Child Rights & Equity Consultant. Tara has a background working in human rights organisations, international aid organisations, as well as writing and changing policy for children’s rights. Listen as they unpack the role of understanding identity and how it's formed so we can create societies that let the wisdom of all of us - regardless of ethnic background, race, ability, neurodiversity, sexuality or gender - be valued and included in the ways of knowing and being in the world. 
  
 In this episode you'll learn about:

• how to include, elevate and value the voices of your children in your household
• why first establishing safety is an important part of unlearning your cultural conditioning 
• why it feels so rewarding to be socially included and how that affects our motivation and sense of belonging
• the questions to ask yourself when triggered by some of the fear and discomfort that comes with the unlearning of biases
• how to teach your children critical thinking and thoughtfulness
• what Ross Greens collaborative problem solving is and how you can integrate it at home

 
 If you are wanting to see a world where openness and diversity is embraced and contributions from children are valued in many different ways and forms, then this is the podcast episode for you!
