In today's podcast: I speak to math professor and mom of seven kids, LaTanya Carter, about identity, grit, and navigating the dysfunctional public school system. P.S. Like this podcast? Thank you! Please share it to help me reach more parents. Quotes from our conversation: "It never shows up on her report card, though, because this is not what we're testing in school. And for her, the grit is lost in the system, and she loses a part of herself." "At some point, I had to realize the things I'm being asked to take from her, are later going to be asked from me to give back to her, to empower her."
