SHAPE|SHARP: Lessons Beyond the Classroom: A Parent's Perspective

In this segment of How Do You Divine?, we explore the dual meaning of Shape/Sharp—how parents shape sharp minds and how children, in turn, sharpen their own understanding of intelligence, critical thinking, and adaptability. But beyond that, we dive into the child’s perspective, questioning the very process of being shaped.

In this special episode, I interview my daughter Layla. We delve into the significance of maintaining a pure heart and sharp mind, especially when dealing with teenagers. Learn the importance of emotional regulation and the notion that 'knowledge is power'. I reflect on personal experiences and lessons learned, emphasizing the value of intelligence and compassion. We highlight the importance of being different, advocating for children’s educational needs, and balancing parental egos with valuable substance. Gain insights into the deeper meaning behind traditional schooling and its broader implications for both children and parents.
