There's a lot we can learn from working through our challenges, and #bullying is perhaps one of the biggest challenges that many parents must work through - so, getting a little help, is always welcome! Noko the Knight is a beautiful children's book series, written by our guest this week, Eleni Theodorou, that aims to spread awareness & help with the bullying problem. @nokotheknight_southafrica has also partnered with the National Children’s Theatre, bringing valuable lessons to life for children through Theatre in Education (TIE). Your school can benefit from the programme, and the Noko the Knight Lesson Plans.

What does the word "resilience" mean to us as parents? How do we go about raising a child that is resilient? This week We have the honour of hosting Naomi Holdt, educational psychologist, speaker, and author, from KZN, to help us better understand the concept of 'raising a resilient child.' Perhaps, the answer might be simpler than we realise! Have a listen to our latest Podcast for a truly interesting take on this topic.

Endometriosis. It's a tough condition for women to talk about, let alone asking for help. And very often it's misdiagnosed, leading to embarrassment later in life. Nadine Dirks, activist & author, is joining us this week to tackle this very intimate topic, because she is living with this experience herself. She has just published a memoir reflecting on her journey with endometriosis, called 'Hot Water,' and is currently studying for a master’s degree in Women & Gender Studies.
