010: Building Global Connections Through Play
Curiosity is a muscle. Let’s train it young!

In today's episode, we connect with Whitney Duenas Richardson, founder of Global Sprouts. We were not prepared for the incredible conversation that flowed and we're so excited to share it with you!

Join us, and meet this engaging woman, mother, and entrepreneur! In our conversation, we explore how hands-on culture kits turn play into empathy for children ages 2 to 8. We cover what it means to have a mission that is bigger than education; it includes authentic sourcing with paid cultural ambassadors, a simple project-based learning loop, and the travel trifecta of learn before, experience in-country, and reflect after.

Whitney gets candid about bias, resilience, and building community after losing her home to Hurricane Helene.

Join us for a smart, funny, practical talk on raising globally curious kids. Have a question for Whitney or a tradition your family loves? Let us know!
