ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Ros is a former national award-winning teacher and someone who has reinvented herself more than once.
Raising her daughters in Singapore she is acutely aware of the pressure the education system places on children — which is exactly why she is so deliberate about what she is building in them instead.
In this episode:
→ Singapore's exam culture and what that level of academic pressure actually does to children
→ Beauty standards and the misconception that appearance is enough without substance to back it up
→ Two daughters with completely opposite personalities — and the challenge of honouring their differences.
For the mother who wants to raise girls who know their value especially in a world where the pressure to perform, look a certain way and meet everyone else's definition of success starts earlier than it ever should.
