What if the way we view our kids could literally shape their brains? In this eye-opening conversation, Sue Langley blends neuroscience, psychology, and personal stories to explore how strengths-based parenting can shift everything. Whether you're feeling stuck or simply curious, this episode invites you to rethink what’s possible for your child and for yourself.


 What to expect in this episode:

  • Why every brain is “neurodiverse” and why that matters
  • How the brain rewires itself through thoughts, emotions, and habits
  • The dangers of over-identifying with labels and how to move beyond them
  • How to use strengths-based parenting to build self-efficacy
  • The key difference between fixing and supporting your child
