Rebuilding Safety Around Learning: PDA, Unschooling, and Trusting the Nervous System (Part 2)
Description
This is Part Two of my conversation with educator and consultant Danielle Rodda of Neurodivergent Consulting.
In this episode, we shift from why learning shuts down to how learning begins again - through safety, trust, and nervous system regulation.
We talk about:
- What learning looks like when safety comes first
- Why unlearning is often necessary before learning can return
- PDA, autonomy, and curiosity
- Letting go of urgency and trusting your child
