Hi, I’m Lauren Edmunds, and welcome to the Lauren Edmunds Podcast.
In each episode, we dive deep into the world of education and parenting, with a special focus on primary school children with remedial and special needs. Drawing on over 12 years of hands-on experience running Omatas Learning Centre, a special needs school in Johannesburg, along with decades of academic research, I aim to provide valuable insights and practical advice.
I’m excited to share my knowledge with you and hope you find the discussions both informative and inspiring.
Enjoy the show!

In this episode, Lauren Edmunds unpacks how our attitudes towards failure can either limit or empower our children. Inspired by Jessica Lahey’s The Gift of Failure, she reflects on the lessons we unintentionally teach when we take over tasks, and how allowing children to struggle builds resilience and confidence. Through personal insight and heartfelt examples, Lauren encourages parents to shift from fixing to guiding — helping children find success in their own effort and growth.
