Kimberly Swiatek

– The Whinypaluza Podcast with Rebecca Greene Episode 074 Divorce My Way

Kimberly Swiatek always believed that she didn’t have to have her parents’ divorce or the angry divorces that are seen on tv. That’s when she realized she could have divorce her way. The splitting of her marriage ended with not only two adults, but, four adults (her ex-husband and she are both remarried), who can work together to parent, make life better for all involved, and, after a while, became friends. She truly hopes that her story can help others have divorce their way, and not the nasty divorce story that society has shown us.

Listen to this insightful Whinypaluza episode with Kimberly Swiatek about taking positive steps to have a good relationship within divorce.

Here is what to expect on this week’s show:

● How marriage, children, and divorce don’t come with an instruction book.

072: Building Confidence in Children Aug 20, 2021

Show notes

Leslie Lucy

– The Whinypaluza Podcast with Rebecca Greene Episode 072 Building Confidence in Children

Leslie did not start out as a preschool owner. In fact, she worked in the medical field as a surgical assistant until the age of 35, when she heard a sermon by Bruce Wilkinson that changed the course of her life. The book “The Dream Giver” explains why we have a dream and how God wants us to follow that dream to fulfill His purpose in our lives.

While raising three children, Leslie realized that her passion was to be in childcare. She took a leap of faith and started her own home daycare. When she realized her true calling, “to change the way we do preschool,” she went to Saddleback College to get her education in Early Childhood Development. In 2003, Leslie was led to launch a pilot program at Calvary Chapel of the Canyons, where the Orange Tree Teaching system was put together. Soon after, Leslie launched Orange Tree Corp in Lake Forest as its first location. In 2011, Orange Tree opened its second location in Newport Beach and is currently extending the third branch in Costa Mesa, slated to open in September 2021.

Through Orange Tree, Leslie has changed the way we do preschool. She believes that her system will be implemented in preschools throughout the world and not just at Orange Tree. Contrary to what most schools advocate for, which is “new and fresh,” Leslie believes in good old-fashioned practice and repetition. She believes that it is crucial to teach kids perseverance and life skills that will equip them to overcome challenges and come out the other side victorious. In that way, she combines Classical education and skills training while making it fun for the kids, which helps them develop a love for learning.

Listen to this insightful Whinypaluza episode with Leslie Lucy about building confidence in children.

Here is what to expect on this week’s show:

● How the Orange Tree system advocates for practice, repetition, and mastery.

● Why you have to make your lessons fun when you’re teaching children.

● How kids need to learn how to practice and persevere for mastery.

● Why young kids with too many choices can feel burdened with responsibilities.

● Why many pre-schools aren’t preparing children for school or the real world.

She has influenced over 150,000 people worldwide in mindset mastery, emotional mastery, loving themselves, and believing that with the proper mentorship, community and strategies... anything is possible.
