289. A Round Table with Katie Doughty about Julie’s New Book
Manage episode 485425970 series 1375629
Do your kids say they hate writing? You're not alone—and they're probably not telling the whole story. In this episode, we’re excited to share Katie Doughty’s interview with Julie about Julie’s new book, Help! My Kid Hates Writing! from the Raising Kind Humans podcast. That’s right—this week we’re turning the tables! Together, Katie and Julie explore why so many children struggle with writing and what we can do to restore their natural love for self-expression. From rethinking how we approach mechanics to embracing the role of a writing coach (not a referee), we share practical strategies to help your child find their voice.
We also explore how playful tools like freewriting, oral storytelling, and pretend play can unlock creativity and confidence. Writing isn't about getting it “right”—it's about being real. And when we start there, the rest follows.
