    Oct 30 2024

    In this episode, we dive into a controversial educational policy proposed by Minnesota's Governor Tim Walz and his wife, Gwen Walz. During a discussion on Katie Couric's podcast, Gwen Walz expressed her belief that providing tampons in boys' bathrooms is a necessary step to help students focus on learning, particularly in the context of addressing hunger and other barriers that hinder educational success.

Dr. Kathy reframes the purpose of learning and school for us from the Walz's perspective, and helps us think in a helpful manner as we guide and encourage kids.
