Episode #19: What is best for children with Chantal Cox
Today’s episode is with Chantal Cox, a special educator, author, podcaster, and transformation coach who uses her 3 part framework along with the power of the NeuroCoaching Model(™) to help motivated, high-achievers rediscover their passion and purpose in life so that they can rise up, step into their full potential, and successfully navigate their journey to Create a Life You Love.
Chantal has been working in a cooperative that she has been in for 13 years and is helping the new future of the co-op come to life. In today’s show, Chantal and I dig into cooperative learning, showing both of our experiences within that for parents and educators. Chantal’s core philosophy for teaching is “what’s best for kids,” and she brings that into all of her professional space.
