In this episode, Sanchita and Rinie are joined by Dr. Grace Riyas, who is a whole-brain development and holistic parent coach. She is the founder of the Genius Nurturer program.
Her courses empower parents to become "genius nurturers," emphasizing that a child's development is deeply influenced by positive learning experiences, emotional growth, and holistic nurturing.
Grace believes that every parent can raise a happy, fulfilled child by foster- ing a supportive environment through community and awareness.
Her approach isn't about just "what" to teach children but about "how" to nurture them effectively.
In this episode, we dive into understanding the best tools and ways to make sure we can maximise our kids potential and growth in the first few years of life.
