Feeling overwhelmed with distance learning? In this episode, Camille welcomes Dr. Jessica Bennett, Founder and CEO of Mindful Literacy Practice, a tutoring company that specializes in teaching and reading for children with disabilities, including Dyslexia and ADHD.

Learn from an expert how to overcome the overwhelm and anxiety that comes with helping your children learn remotely from home, especially during the covid-19 pandemic. Dr. Bennett shares how she gained the courage and strength to pivot into a new, entrepreneurial career path, as well as tips and advice for getting in tune with what your child needs to learn effectively.

“Some people say English is crazy and a weird language but when you really start studying it for what it is, it’s really quite beautiful and systematic and it’s just really fun to connect kids to our history as humans.” - Dr. Jessica Bennett

Tune in as Dr. Bennett tells the story of how she grew her business from her love of education... a tear-jerking story of womanhood, intuition, immense growth, and resilience.

Pivoting to distance learning as a working parent is challenging in so many ways. Stay tuned for powerful advice on finding patience with at-home learning and to learn how you can quiz your kids to find out if their education is effective or not.

“There are so many systemic problems in our national education system that I felt personally, as a teacher in a classroom, that I couldn’t really do anything about. Parents felt it… and I was like, what really matters? And what can I do with the energy and limited time that I have, because I am also a mother of 3 little girls, to get to the core of being able to do what I love and taking away all of the stuff that is making it not so fun?”
- Dr. Jessica Bennett

“You’re the CEO of your kids’ educational team, how are you going to treat your employees?”
- Dr. Jessica Bennett
