  • 13: ADHD as Your Superpower
    Welcome to the She Has the Audacity Podcast. This week I had the chance to hang out with the amazing Melissa Oziel. Melissa is a speech-language pathologist and works in the space of helping kids learn executive functioning skills.

    After working for low-income communities in the Bronx, New York, Melissa moved to Ontario and launched her business, The Speech and Language Associates of Toronto. We often get her role confused with speech therapy. However, Melissa really takes the time to teach kids with ADHD the proper tools in order to communicate and express themselves properly. She also teaches the parents of kids with ADHD the proper tools in order to help their kids progress in their life.

    Our conversation was really interesting because there is a lot we don't know as a population about ADHD and especially how it shows up in girls and women.

    We chatted about:

    The importance of coaching parents and kids of ADHD to ensure success The truth about ADHD Behaviours

    How to teach executive functioning skills

    The lack of knowledge on ADHD in women and girls

    and so much more!

    Today I had the pleasure of chatting with an amazing human who is a wealth of knowledge. Dr. Shyamala Kiru is a registered psychotherapist, a family and couples therapist, and more recently a coach for women wanting to lead in their power.

  • E10: Finding more Joy

    Welcome to the She Has The Audacity podcast. I am your host, Chana Ross.

    Today's episode I am joined by Joy Badler who is the chief encourager of vulnerable children, an educator and mindfulness coach, and who is on a mission to help everyone jump with joy.

    Joy's story began when she and her family immigrated to Canada from South Africa. Once she arrived, she realized that her son had learning disabilities. After realizing that she would be alone on this journey of getting help for her son, she decided to take matters into her own hands. Joy's son's disabilities ended up being a blessing in disguise because it taught her exactly what she needed in order to deliver support to vulnerable children. She created a 6 week program to take children from where they are to a place where they unconditionally love themselves.

    This episode is a must listen as we really went deep and talked about Joy's personal mental health journey which has shaped the way she's able to now teach others to find the joys in their own lives.

    We chat about:

    • Her experiences raising a child with disabilities
    • The importance of incorporating mindfulness in our children's education
    • The importance on having a morning and evening routine
    • The importance of scheduling your tasks
    • and much more!
