When Esther Freeman's (singer, songwriter) marriage ended she changed the narrative.
From surviving to thriving.
From anxiety to gratitude.
Singing and dancing her way through the cracks, with her kids.
Not a broken home, it's fuller than ever.

♦️Thank you to our episode sponsor: AlPiDarko;

Based on a unique blend of Torah sources and psychological approaches, AlPiDarko supports parents by helping them understand children’s behaviour through a relationship‑based and mindset‑focused approach, rather than through rules, punishments, or quick fixes. The online programme encourages parents to shift how they view and respond to behaviour, showing how adult reactions directly influence a child’s emotional security, self‑esteem, and cooperation. By focusing on awareness, clarity, and calm responses, parents learn how to reduce power struggles and create a more stable, respectful home environment. 

Through structured courses and guided sessions,  as well as one-on-one communications with APD trainers,  AlPiDarko equips parents with practical tools they can use immediately to strengthen connection, build resilience, and support healthy emotional development in their children. The emphasis is on empowering parents to feel confident and consistent, so that children feel understood, safe, and capable of positive change. The overall aim is calmer homes, stronger relationships, and children who grow with a secure sense of self-worth.
