Summer Series- Honoring the Individual: Rethinking Intelligence, with Pepper Stetler

Uncategorized Jul 23, 2026

You’re listening to Voices of Your Village, and today’s episode is part of our summer series, Honoring the Individual. Over the next few months, we’ll be revisiting some of our favorite conversations—episodes that remind us of a core truth: there is no one-size-fits-all approach to supporting children.  Today we’re hanging out with Pepper Stetler,  the author of A Measure of Intelligence: One Mother's Reckoning with the IQ Test. We talked about school systems and how they are not set up to support all of our children. I want to hear your takeaways and your feedback and whether or not your kid might benefit from some of the things that we toss up in this episode. And if you're a teacher, come share your challenges and grievances and what you would love to see change as well.

And stay tuned later this summer—we have an exciting announcement that will make it easier than ever to move beyond generic advice and access support tailored to the individual child, student, or family you're supporting. Alright folks, let's dive in.
