E19: THE MAGIC OF INTUITION

In this season finale of IASS KIDS, I wanted to create something really special—an all-encompassing conversation about kids, intuition, and the magic that connects us all. As an intuitive, artist, and first grade teacher, I’ve seen firsthand just how deeply connected children are to spirit. In this episode, I share my personal experiences, stories from my classroom, and the powerful synchronicities that have shaped my own relationship with intuition. Why is it children are naturally more open, present, and in flow? Is there something we can we learn from these very qualities to better receive from spirit?  Today we will explore perspectives from cultures and traditions around the world that all point to the same idea: children are deeply connected to something greater, and we can learn so much by simply observing and listening to them. Throughout this episode, I share real moments where spirit communicated with me—often through my students—and how these experiences have helped me trust, ask, and receive guidance in my everyday life. This episode is really an invitation. To remember your own connection. To reconnect with your intuition. And to start noticing the magic that’s already showing up for you. If you’ve ever had an unexplainable coincidence, felt a quiet inner knowing, or wondered how to deepen your connection to spirit—this is for you. As we close out the season, my hope is that you walk away feeling more supported, more open, and more connected—not just to spirit, but to yourself! Because the magic is still here. Sometimes, we just have to learn to see it the way our children do. *For privacy and protection, all children mentioned in this episode are referred to using fictional names or general references.

E18: LISTENING BEYOND WORDS ft. Sherri Huáng

What if children are communicating far more than words can explain? In today’s episode we explore the connection between nervous system regulation, intuition, emotional energy, and the deep unseen ways children respond to the world around them. Blending science, spirituality, and real-life experience working with children, this conversation dives into how emotional safety, co-regulation, imagination, and inner healing shape both parent and child wellbeing. Joined by a speech therapist, energy worker, and healer, Sherri Huang, we discuss mirror neurons, intuitive children, the impact of a parent’s emotional state on the home environment, and why imagination may be more than “pretend” — it may be a form of inner intelligence. We also explore inner child healing for parents, grounding practices for families, and how connection itself can become a pathway to healing. This episode is for parents, teachers, healers, and anyone curious about raising emotionally aware children while learning to listen more deeply to themselves.

E15: ENERGY TOOLS FOR KIDS: From Classroom to Home ft. Veronica Fuata

Today we explore how energy shows up in our kids — at school and at home — and how adults can lead with a sense calm, awareness, and intention. We talk about what “high energy” or “off” really looks and feels like, why emotional regulation is a skill (not a personality trait), and how our own energy as parents and teachers sets the tone for children. You’ll hear simple, practical tools to help kids calm, focus, and transition — from breath and grounding practices to movement, games, and brain breaks — as well as what it truly means to hold space for a child in busy classrooms and everyday family life. This conversation is for any adult who wants to support kids in feeling safe, centered, and empowered to understand their own energy. Meet our special guest: Veronica is a Northeast Florida native whose path weaves teaching, cultural performance, and a lifelong sensitivity to energy and spirit. Born and raised in Jacksonville, she graduated from Jacksonville University in 1997 and launched her teaching career right away, guiding young learners with steady presence for decades. In 2006, she moved to historic St. Augustine with her family, drawn to its grounding, timeless vibes. For nearly five decades, Veronica and her family performed traditional Polynesian dances, channeling Pacific rhythms, movement, and ancestral spirit to build connection, joy, and energetic flow in communities. As a guest on In a Spiritual Sense KIDS she shares how these experiences open doors to aligning energy, calming chaos, and fostering good vibes—especially with children—in classrooms, homes, and everyday life. *For privacy and protection, all children mentioned in this episode are referred to using fictional names or general references.
