Episode notes

Featuring Stephenie Lee, Founder & CEO, Beacon Learning & Katrina Mankani, Director of Positive Education, Fortes Education

As parents and educators, we all want to help our children succeed—but success isn’t just about results!

In this heartwarming episode, Stephenie Lee and Katrina Mankani invite us to rethink how we support kids through praise, failure, and growth. They share how the right kind of praise can build confidence, why focusing on strengths can unlock potential, and how embracing mistakes helps children develop the resilience they need to thrive.

With deep professional insight and personal reflections, they explore the small, intentional ways we can shift our language and mindset to raise stronger, more self-aware learners.

It’s an honest and encouraging conversation about what really matters in childhood: the journey, not just the destination.
