Some children shine in obvious ways. Others quietly wonder if anyone truly sees them.
Guest Host Kathryn Colins speaks with Dr. Mark Perloe, a retired IVF specialist and grandfather, whose relationship with his two grandsons inspired him to write his first childrenโs book. One grandson is highly focused and neurodivergent. The other sometimes feels invisible -but uses humour as his superpower to connect.
We explore:
๐ฅ How children who feel unseen can discover their own strengths
๐ฅ The power of humour, empathy, and kindness in building confidence
๐ฅ The unique role grandparents and adults can play in nurturing emotional well-being
๐ฅ Why noticing and valuing every child creates stronger families and communities
๐ฅ How Milo's story has helped to build a connection between siblings. How did Mark and his cousin work together to make publishing Milo's Superpower possible?
Mark worked as a doctor specializing in IVF for 32 years.Now retired, Markโs favorite thing to do is spend time with his two grandsons. He is thrilled to be writing his first childrenโs book!

Mark's co-author, is his cousin Justine Perloe. She is a 2nd grade teacher and loves sharing stories with her students! She even shared a very early draft of Miloโs Superpower with them. She is so excited to be a part of this project!
Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is simply see a child - and help them recognize the superpowers they already have.
