In this episode I have a conversation with Diana Jenson,  Diana is a passionate Early Childhood educator from Denmark.

Diana's journey in early childhood education is a testament to her commitment to the lifelong pursuit of knowledge. She's an eternal student, consistently delving into the world of conscious discipline and brain science to unravel the mysteries of child behavior and how we, as adults, can navigate this path with grace.

She is the host of the "Joyscovery Journeys - Navigating Early Childhood" podcast, where she guides parents, teachers, and caregivers through the intricate world of raising and educating young children. Diana's podcast began as an Instagram page, where she shares engaging activities for preschoolers, igniting a passion for early childhood education that continues to inspire her work today.


In our conversation we talk about the gap between kid's developmental capacities and the demands that are inflicted on them in the early years of preschool, we discuss the difference between early education in the US and Denmark and set the tone for an alternative approach that gives kids ample freedom to play, explore and just be kids!
