Self-Schooled

by Heather DiNino

Self-Schooled is a podcast about learning the most important subject we were never taught: who we are. Hosted by educator, parent, and Microschool founder Heather DiNino, each episode explores a different lens for understanding children more deeply—from personality, communication, learning, sensory needs, emotions, strengths, identity, and more. Because our kids are always communicating. The question is: do we understand their language? Self-Schooled is for parents, educators, and anyone ready to question the mold, stop assuming, and become more fluent in the people they love. Learning who our children are—so we can help them become themselves. And learning a lot about ourselves along the way, as well. Our children are our greatest teachers.
