Episode 35 (Teachers/Parents) Interview with Worldmind Nature School Creator Megan Patterson

Show Notes

Outdoor classrooms!? What!?

Today, we chatted with Ashley's good friend Megan Patterson. They met while  working in Alaska but something happened while up there that shortened her stay which was a beautiful blessing. Because of this; she established an outdoor based early childhood-8th grade school she has worked so hard to create! 

 

Megan talks all about her struggles in this journey, the challenges and the beauty that it has created for her son and all the twice-exceptional and neurodiverse children in her area. 

 

Not sure what twice exceptional and neurodiverse means? She talks all about that too and how having an outdoor based school for these types of kids helps them thrive. 

 

Is your child struggling in school and you're not quite sure why? This is a great episode to get you to explore other options for them and to maybe even get them tested to see what things you can be doing to help them (oh yea, Megan talks all about that too;) I would also encourage you to check out the Worldmind Nature School website here (https://worldmindnatureschool.com/). 

 

Worldmind Nature School is based out of Colorado but it may get you thinking about other options for your kids if you're not in the Denver area.

We also go deep into why being outside is so important for EVERYONE and how this is such an important part of self- care that a lot of us forget about!
