In this deeply compassionate episode, we’re joined by the incredible Ruth Tarr - a therapist whose experience spans biology, teaching, energy medicine, psychotherapy, functional medicine and more. Ruth brings a rare blend of clinical knowledge and lived experience to her work with children, parents and carers.

Together, we explore:

• Why so many parents feel unheard and isolated
• The pressure to follow “expert” advice and the cost of disconnecting from instinct
• What happens when a child doesn’t fit into the box - and why that box often needs rethinking
• The impact of masking, labels and diagnosis in a system hungry for definitions
• How to navigate SEN challenges and emotional burnout
• Simple, powerful practices for reconnecting to joy and resilience
• The vital role of connection, curiosity and hope in the therapeutic process

This episode is a lifeline for parents, carers and professionals supporting young people who are struggling - and for anyone ready to trust their inner wisdom again.
