This episode unpacks Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theories and their impact on early childhood education. From the Id, Ego, and Superego to the psychosexual stages, we discuss how his ideas shape modern teaching strategies and debates about their relevance. We also explore critiques of Freud's work and how his concepts have influenced contemporary emotional literacy and trauma-informed practices.
