Well, hello anxiety with Dr Jodi Richardson When School Feels Tough: How to Support Kids Who Learn Differently, with Emily Fogg
Learning can be tough for any child—but for kids with dyslexia, ADHD, autism, dyscalculia, or dysgraphia, school can feel especially overwhelming. Add anxiety to the mix, and both children and parents can feel lost about where to turn.
In this heartwarming and practical conversation, Dr Jodi Richardson sits down with Emily Fogg, founder of Wise Owl Education and a passionate teacher with over 15 years’ experience supporting neurodiverse students. Emily shares how she’s helping families navigate the education system, advocate for their children, and rebuild confidence and joy in learning.
Together, Jodi and Emily explore:
💡 What common learning differences really mean (and what they don’t)
💡 How anxiety often shows up alongside learning challenges
💡 Practical steps for parents who suspect their child may need extra support
💡 Why mental health must come before grades—and how confidence can transform learning
If you’re a parent, teacher, or carer of a child who learns differently—or you simply want to understand more about how we can make education more inclusive—this episode is a must-listen.
