THE ROOT OF LEARNING ISSUES

Not all kids learn the same way, but many parents are left feeling confused, guilty, or overwhelmed when their child struggles in school. What if the real issue isn’t behavior or motivation but something deeper?

In this episode, I sit down with Rich Frieder, owner of LearningRx, a brain training center that helps kids and adults improve the cognitive skills that impact how they learn, read, and process information.

Rich shares his personal story of navigating his own daughter’s learning challenges, why standard interventions like IEPs or tutoring often miss the mark, and how cognitive training gets to the root cause of why a child might be struggling. We talk about the emotional toll on families, the difference between accommodating vs. addressing the issue, and how to build resilience in kids without mowing down every obstacle.

Tune in for a powerful conversation about hope, strategy, and why you don’t have to choose between supporting your child and raising them to be capable.
