In this episode, Kati & Caroline invite Visitation’s Director of Academic Support Kerry Kaminsky to discuss how to empower students academically. Kerry shares her philosophy on fostering independence and resilience among students. The three explore:

- the balance between academic challenges and personal fulfillment;

- the need for joy in students' lives;

- teaching students to be resourceful and self-advocating;

- how parents can help children process emotions and feedback without immediate reactions; and

- how to create space for reflection and growth, particularly in a fast-paced world.

Kerri, Kati, & Caroline end with a conversation on vulnerability and open communication.
