Struggling to get your child to go to school?
In this deeply affirming episode, Laetitia speaks with Corinne Smith, founder of KinHub, about the misunderstood and often mislabelled experience of School Can’t, when a child’s nervous system simply cannot cope with attending school.
Corinne shares her personal story as a neurodivergent parent navigating education breakdown with her eldest child, and how this experience inspired her to create KinHub: a grassroots, neuroaffirming space for families navigating alternative paths.
Together, they explore the emotional and systemic toll of School Can’t, the stigma families face, and the healing power of rest, regulation and community. If your child has ever struggled with school, and you’ve felt alone, judged, or unsure what to do next - this conversation is for you.
