We’re Sarah and Amy: Play therapists, fierce advocates of preserving childhood and proud parents of 7 kids. We know that you and the children you love weren’t here to be put into boxes, or to blend in and be just like everyone else. You were here to be YOU… and boy does the world need exactly who you are! This is the place for those here to ditch the frameworks, boot the scripts and rediscover the power of BEing in a world that wants you DOING MORE. This is for the shape shifters and the cycle breakers, this is Brains at Play - so happy you’re here!

Episode 4 - Unpacking fundamental human needs - needs that drive behaviour across the lifespan

In this thought-provoking episode, we unpack the fundamental human needs that drive our behaviours and how we can use this knowledge to offset and understand some of the more tricky behaviours we come across.    The conversation expands to childhood development, where Amy discusses the critical role of autonomy and agency in fostering healthy growth. Sarah can’t help herself again and uses story to share anecdotes and practical examples that illustrate how early experiences shape lifelong attitudes towards competency and autonomy.   Throughout the episode, we shine a light on the transformative power of embracing uncertainty and discomfort. Sorry, just like on the bear hunt; you have to go through it. By reframing competence as a continuous journey rather than a fixed destination, we encourage you to adopt a growth mindset in both personal and professional pursuits.   Join us as we offer valuable insights into fostering resilience, autonomy, and healthy relationships across all stages of life. —---------------------------------------------------------- How to get in touch  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/brainsatplay.podcast/ [https://www.instagram.com/brainsatplay.podcast/]

Episode 3 - The problem with ‘normal’, shifting the deficit model to one of strength and diversity

In this episode we unpack the complexities around the concept of "normal" in child development and parenting. We begin by challenging the conventional notion that children must conform to predetermined norms and milestones. Drawing from her background as a play researcher, Amy shares insights into how these societal expectations can sometimes hinder a child's natural growth and self-expression.   We shine a light on the importance of creating a nurturing environment where children feel emotionally and physically safe whilst advocating for a more holistic view on child development.   The episode concludes with a reflection on the role of relationships and emotional connections in supporting children's growth. Join us as we propose a shift away from focusing solely on what children haven't achieved or what's considered "abnormal," to celebrating their strengths and unique qualities.    Reference: Ray, D.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
