This is also true for our children.  In this episode, Shaista is joined by guest Rahima Khoja.

Her international teaching experience led her to teach children from diverse backgrounds and cultures.  With a strong foundation of over 15 years of teaching experience, Rahima’s desire to extend and educate beyond traditional teaching methods and subjects led her to completing her certification as a Wisdom Coach.   Now residing in Calgary, Alberta, Rahima continues to work as an educator, while also focusing upon helping children to develop a growth mindset of positivity, success, and confidence.  Rahima strives to lead our children to be humans of integrity, compassion, and strength, thereby developing their full potential.Website : www.invinciblekids.caAbout the Hosts:About Dimple Arora – Founder of Mindful EvolutionDimple Arora is the founder of Mindful Evolution (ME) — a parenting movement that aims to empower parents and their kids towards positive transformation and life changing results...one thought, one emotion and one choice at a time.Dimple is an expert in women and teen empowerment and specializes in helping individuals reduce the debilitating effects of stress and anxiety using mindfulness, nutrition, EFT tapping and other energy psychology modalities.
