What happens when we stop trying to control our children’s learning and instead focus on shining our own light? In this inspiring conversation, Julia Black—founder of Lights On Learning, filmmaker, author, and changemaker—shares her journey from BAFTA-nominated storyteller to educational visionary and creator of the “Lights On” framework.

Julia’s approach is transforming how families and educators think about learning, parenting, and growth. Together we explore:

How to recognize when your child is “lights on” (engaged, joyful, alive) or “lights off” (bored, frustrated, stuck).

Why disengagement isn’t a problem but an essential part of the learning journey.

The spectrum of human experience—from dimness to radiance—and how to move along it with awareness.

The powerful role mothers (and fathers) play in setting the energetic tone at home.

Practical tools to foster belonging, resilience, and curiosity in your family.

At the heart of Julia’s work is a simple but profound truth: when parents shine, their families shine too.

Whether you’re navigating school struggles, considering unschooling or flexi-schooling, or simply searching for more joy and meaning in your family life, this episode will light you up with hope, courage, and practical wisdom.

✨ Tune in, share it with a friend, and join the movement of families choosing radiance over routine.
