In today’s episode, Dr. Amy Esbee explores a critical issue that affects not only our kids but also how we show up for their learning: the belief that the education system is broken. The truth might surprise you—it’s not broken. It’s working exactly as it was designed to: creating conformity and a single way of thinking.

Through her personal experience as a millennial learner, Dr. Amy breaks down how our education system teaches us that fitting into a mold is more important than actually learning. She dives into how these ingrained beliefs show up in our reactions when helping our kids learn, and why it’s so important to rethink how we approach learning moments with our children.

This episode is all about shifting the narrative—moving away from fear-based teaching and move toward opportunities for growth. If you’re a parent, educator, or someone who helps kids learn (whether it’s at home or in school), this episode will inspire you to rethink how you show up in those challenging learning moments.
