#212: The 4 Words Holding Children Back


Listen Later

There are four little words that we, as educators, use far more often than we realize — and they might be quietly holding children back.

These words aren’t harsh or negative. In fact, they sound completely ordinary. But the truth is, they shape how we see children, how we interpret their behaviour, and how we respond in the moment.

In this episode, Carla dives deep into the power of language —how simple words can limit our perspective, close off possibilities, and unintentionally define a child’s potential. You’ll leave this conversation reflecting on your own practice, rethinking how you describe behaviour, and ready to see children in a whole new light.

🎙️ Listen now to uncover the four words that change everything.
