Pure inspiration

Beautiful and meaningful conversations that inspire a desire to deepen the study of meaningful child-educator relationships and the understanding of young children’s incredibly rich and complex ways of experiencing life.

Inspiring

This has been such a wonderful podcast! I wish there were more! I have searched all over for something like this. Thank you!

Genuine deep Reggio discussions

High quality, experienced guests. Deep dive into specific topics. Highly enriching listening.
Not like the broad sweep given to Reggio in most podcasts.
First if it’s kind I’ve seen in Podcasts. So glad I stumbled upon this. Now I can listen to something genuinely engaging and thought-provoking in the car (in Asia!).
