Lisa Van Der Wielen: Crafting Stories to Help Kids Tackle Anxiety

I was inspired to write this story about a little girl who suffers with anxiety who was scared to go on the water. So that became a part of the story and how the beach and water is a great therapy also.
What happens when a passion for writing meets a deep understanding of children's emotions? In this episode of 'Toni TV', host Toni Lontis sits down with Lisa Van Der Wielen, a children's book author and primary school teacher, to explore just that. Lisa's journey is a heartwarming blend of creativity and compassion, driven by her experiences as a mother and educator.
Her latest book, 'Dune', is a touching tale about a young girl named Grace who learns to manage her anxiety with the help of her dog and the calming presence of the beach. Lisa's insights into the rising levels of anxiety among children today make this episode a must-listen for parents, teachers, and anyone interested in mental health. She also opens up about the hurdles of self-publishing and the joy of seeing her stories bring comfort to young readers.
Tune in for an inspiring conversation that promises to leave you feeling hopeful and motivated.
