The Grow Your Mind Podcast Grow Your Mind

Consent education is now part of the school curriculum. In this episode and at primary school, consent education is taught age-appropriately. It doesn't involve sex education but rather explores permission, how to know if you want to say yes, how to say no, and how to make sure you receive a no with respect.

Useful and interesting insights on how to support your mental health and wellbeing.

Hey listeners - this episode is a repeat from Series 2 of The Grow Your Mind Podcast. We are bringing it back to celebrate International Women's Day. It's called Re-write the Rules and we hope that it inspires you to step up, dream big and embrace equity!

What does Australia's annual celebration of cultural diversity and Grow Your Mind have in common? Belonging. On the 21st of March each year, events are held in schools and the wider community. In this bite size episode, a conversation between two primary school aged kids takes place where they seek to understand the symbolism of orange and why belonging is crucial for our mental wellbeing. Educators - play this episode as an authentic way to talk about the importance of cultural diversity and belonging. And be sure to come up with tangible actions that each student can take to start helping others feel seen and valued. Script - Alice Peel Production, editing & sound - Lisa Taylor

Each episode in Series 3, we spotlight a different part of the brain and take a closer look at 3 character strengths.  This episode, the 11 year old hosts explore that uncomfortable albeit very normal emotion of jealousy and the star of the show is the hippocampus, aka The Elephant who tries to remember.  Listen to the hosts use gratitude, generosity and compassion to help the characters in the story get unstuck from the gluey, gluggy mud of jealousy!

Our tunnel story was inspired by twin sisters Amelia and Emily Nagoski’s fantastic book for grown ups called Burnout.
