The latest episode of Beyond the Grade is out now and is a powerful discussion on the importance of emotional fitness.
Host Andrew Hammond is joined by leading parent coach Natalie Costa to explore how families and schools can work together to nurture emotionally steady, connected young people.
In the episode, Natalie explains why emotional agility is an essential life skill and emphasises that children’s emotional steadiness begins with the adults around them, whether at home or in the classroom. The conversation also explores the role schools can play in helping parents build this stability, and how modelling calm, connected behaviour lays the foundation for long‑term wellbeing.
Natalie’s approach is grounded in a simple but powerful belief; when parents feel supported and steady, children grow up feeling safer, more confident, and better equipped to navigate their emotions.
The episode offers practical insight for educators, leaders and families alike, and encourages listeners to reflect on what it truly takes to raise a generation of emotionally connected young people.
