The Conversations We Dread: From Workplace Tensions to Family Interference with Dr. Ashleigh Moreland (Part 2)

What if your body could tell you everything you need to know about your anxiety — if only you knew how to listen? In this powerful first part of their conversation, Dr. Jodi Richardson sits down with neurophysiologist and trauma-informed therapist Dr. Ashleigh Moreland to unpack what it really means to feel safe in your body again.

They talk about the difference between the mind and the brain, why anxiety so often shows up as physical symptoms, and how early life experiences can shape the way we respond to stress. Ashleigh shares her own story of parenting through anxiety, explains how somatic awareness helps us come back to the present moment, and reveals why “fixing the wiring” matters more than constantly “putting out fires.”

If you’ve ever been told “there’s nothing wrong with you” when your body says otherwise, this conversation will make you feel seen, understood, and full of hope.

Learning to Feel Safe in Your Body Again with Dr. Ashleigh Moreland (Part 1)

Learning can be tough for any child—but for kids with dyslexia, ADHD, autism, dyscalculia, or dysgraphia, school can feel especially overwhelming. Add anxiety to the mix, and both children and parents can feel lost about where to turn.

In this heartwarming and practical conversation, Dr Jodi Richardson sits down with Emily Fogg, founder of Wise Owl Education and a passionate teacher with over 15 years’ experience supporting neurodiverse students. Emily shares how she’s helping families navigate the education system, advocate for their children, and rebuild confidence and joy in learning.

Together, Jodi and Emily explore:
💡 What common learning differences really mean (and what they don’t)
💡 How anxiety often shows up alongside learning challenges
💡 Practical steps for parents who suspect their child may need extra support
💡 Why mental health must come before grades—and how confidence can transform learning

If you’re a parent, teacher, or carer of a child who learns differently—or you simply want to understand more about how we can make education more inclusive—this episode is a must-listen.
