How a move to Canada’s West Coast opened a new perspective on almost everything. What is the relationship between continuous learning and total helplessness in front of 10 toddlers running wild? Why being surrounded by people you’re comfortable with is so much better than alcohol. And what we can do to help children explore all opportunities independent of gender-based expectations.
In this episode, Barbara meets Alex, who chose a job at Little Green House over a return visa to Canada (we’re forever grateful and really flattered). She tells us what she loves about the job, why asking for help is a great thing, and how to avoid falling into the gender trap when helping little children understand the world around them.
