The Mind School

This week on the podcast Author and researcher Kasey Edwards returns to chat about her new book ‘Bringing up Boys Who Like Themselves’ that she wrote with her husband Christopher Scanlon. 

Kasey’s interview about her first book with husband Christopher Scanlon, ‘Raising Girls Who Like Themselves’ was one of our most listened to and engaged with episodes of all time. It also generated many questions from parents of boys wondering where they could go for advice and assistance when raising their sons. Well look no further. 

Tune in to hear Bre and Kasey chat about:

👦 What led to Kasey and her husband writing this follow up book

👦 What are the key differences between raising girls and boys

👦 What does it mean to raise a boy with a power perspective

👦 Why boys are quite often labelled as ‘lazy’ and why it’s not fair

👦 Why eating disorders and body image are often overlooked in boys

👦 Boys and porn. What to look out for and how you can open the conversations early

There are so many more key points in this conversation that parents in general, as well as parents of boys will no doubt find extremely useful. You are going to want to listen to this episode in its entirety.

Kasey and Christopher are hosting a number if free masterclasses in July for boy parents. There are still a couple of dates available – you can sign up by clicking this link.

This week on the podcast, Bre has a question for you. Are you doing "personal development" or distraction? Her insight into why you're not growing AND a reminder to look inward instead of focusing on the endless external 'stuff'.

Tune in to hear her chat about:

🌱 How her business is a portal for her growth
🌱 Paying attention to the mirrors popping up for you in business
🌱 Being self aware doesn't always feel great
🌱 Why it's important not to shame yourself when things do come up that need your attention

The the real takeaway here is that you have got everything you need, if you can be self aware and watch your own patterns, responses and internal dialogue, to then go to the root cause to do the internal work.

A nice little pep talk for your Wednesday morning, fam! As always, let us know your biggest takeaways and a-ha moments by taking a screenshot and tagging @iambreannamay on Instagram.

This week on the podcast Bre and Mandizzle have an in-depth chat about some common issues raised by friends and clients who have school aged children.

This episode was born on the back of a conversation Bre had recently with a friend who’s 9 year old son was refusing to go to school because he said he hated it and felt stupid (cue heartbreak / outrage / confusion). After throwing out the question to her audience, Bre received questions from many concerned parents about the state of the education system. So on today’s episode, her and Mands hash out three of the major factors plaguing parents with kids currently in school.

Tune in to hear them chat about:

✏️ How to relieve the feelings of pressure our kids are feeling in the classroom

✏️ How parents have the power to make the biggest impact on their kids 

✏️ The fear around potential bullying and how to deal with it should it arise

✏️ Why giving kids a safe and uncensored place to be heard is beneficial

You’re getting two perspectives here, fam. One from a teacher and one from a parent so we really hope you find the episode comforting, at the very least. Remember that you are not alone and that there are things you can do as a parent to aid and assist your child through difficult periods at school.

As always, we would absolutely love to hear from you! Let us know any a-ha moments you came away with by tagging us in your Instagram stories!

Welcome back to another episode of The Mind School Podcast and this week Bre is FIRED UP and we all know what that means. We're in for a cracking rant today, friends.

Bre is transmuting her anger into passion (something she's bloody good at) and with that in mind, this week she is going to be chatting about social norms. It follows on from a post earlier this week where she quoted something her first business mentor said to her. He said:

"If you want to be like the majority of the population, go ahead. But the majority of the population are unhappy, unhealthy and broke. So if you want that, by all means, go with the crowd. But if you don't want that, you have to learn to go against the grain".

Read that again and let it sink in 🤯🤯🤯

Tune in to hear Bre delve into that statement and discuss things like:

😄 Alarming statistics on the mental and physical wellbeing of Australians
😄 Are we doing enough to foster a sense of belonging? And how that can be beneficial
😄 The lack of education in schools around critical elements of REAL life
😄 The contrast in response to spending money on university VS business coaching

This one is a doozy, fam. She's back and she's got something to say! Tune in to the episode and let us know if it resonated with you. You can share to your stories and tag @iambreannamay on Instagram.

This week on the podcast Bre gets vulnerable and shares something that scares the sh*t out of her.

After receiving a loving b*tch slap from BOTH of her mentors, Bre is meeting you, dear listener, at her edge and stepping into her power by sharing something that's actually incredibly exciting and inspiring - but also scary.

Tune in the hear her and Mands chat about:

🤍 What Bre's mentors called her out on
🤍 How this 'devil' has been present at every level of her growth journey
🤍 Why the WHY is more important than the HOW

As Bre says in the episode - you can't talk the talk if you don't walk the walk. This is her walking the walk even though it feels daunting. It's in these moments where we grow the most and the hope is that someone listening will find strength to take their own bold, scary action.
