    00. Why I Created the Raising Scholars Podcast
    Jan 20 2026

    If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything you can for your child, enrolling them in programs, advocating at school, sitting through homework tears, and still wondering if you’re doing enough, this episode is for you.

    I’m Jacquie Langworthy, an education leader, Kumon center owner, and mom who has raised two scholars into independence. In this episode, I share why I created Raising Scholars and the philosophy that guides it.

    You’ll hear about the struggles parents face, the pressure to “get it right,” and how this often leads to dependence rather than confidence. I introduce the R.A.I.S.E. Scholar Framework, a practical approach that prioritizes regulation, autonomy, systems, and evidence-based confidence, helping children become capable, independent learners.

    This podcast is for parents who care deeply, want clarity over guilt, and want to raise scholars without nightly power struggles or burnout. If that’s you, tune in and share this episode with a fellow parent who might need it.

    Topics covered include ADHD, homework struggles, confidence, anxiety, foundational skills, and practical strategies that actually work.

    Let’s raise scholars together.
