Courtney and Michael Adamo are joined by author and Montessori educator Simone Davies for a conversation about how our homes can nurture independence in children.

Simone shares her insights on fostering autonomy and responsibility from a young age, and offers simple, practical ideas—like installing low hooks for brooms, using baskets for toys and involving children in everyday tasks. She also touches on the power of visual calendars and how to make chores feel fun and engaging.

Together we explore how encouraging independence at home not only builds confidence and executive functioning, but also supports long-term family harmony and personal growth.
