RAQUELLE MANTRA
About this episode

Perhaps your child's (including your inner child) was not flawed or imperfect - but instead, their differences are part of your child's superpowers. "The Gift of Being Different" is co-written by Monica and her 9-year-old daughter Abigail. Abigail's dyslexia diagnosis inspired the two to explore the unique perspectives of children who do not learn in a typical fashion and embrace the strengths they are gifted with. In this episode, Monica talks about the experience of celebrating her daughter's unique lens, how this diagnosis has empowered her daughter instead of hindering her in school and life, and the value of teaching all children the different ways children learn to prevent bullying and elevate children's compassion and understanding. I also reveal why this children's book was very personal and healing for my inner child and why I think all children would benefit from reading it and learning from Abigail's gift. Enjoy the magic!
