The Dr. Stacy Show

Season 3 The Dr. Stacy Show with Bri Samuel- The Literary Crisis, Boys in School and Their Big Emotions In this episode, we talk about the realities many families and educators are seeing in schools today—especially when it comes to boys who are struggling academically. Instead of labeling them or assuming the worst, we discuss the importance of extending grace, patience, and understanding, and creating environments where boys can learn in ways that truly support them. Bri’s book, Emani Takes A Deep Breath, supports boys in learning how to manage their strong emotions and gives parents language to help navigate strong emotions. This conversation is honest, thoughtful, and needed. Sometimes what a child needs most isn’t pressure—it’s grace, guidance, and someone willing to see their potential. Key points in today’s podcast: Literary crisis- children struggling to read Tips to get your child reading Representation of black and brown authors Reading essential tool HOME environment- providing books Anxiety in boys/behavior in boys seen as bad instead of needing help Big emotions are part of development Cultures not supporting big emotions Season 3 starts today and we are excited for you all to tune in!
