Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Founder of Gemini Directions and Co-founder of Adventures in Learning, Tory Lenormand is a passionate Mother, Coach, Cacao Practitioner, and Author who champions family, well-being, and community. She believes in empowering others to explore their needs, question long-standing practices, and develop thoughtful perspectives that align with a greater sense of purpose and balance.Tory understands that one size does not fit all for our communities. Following her years of experience as a police officer and financial investigator, she learned to embrace difference whilst becoming a keen observer of how government services increasingly rely on threat and force as a quick fix for deeper issues. Having witnessed with dismay children being pulled into school in their pyjamas, teachers unable to manage competing needs of children, and parents feeling increasingly powerless against the growing control of this system, she offers her book, The Magic Of Not Fitting In, to review these patterns and question oppressive conduct. Tory encourages others to reconsider what they believe is possible. As a Cacao Practitioner, she shares this old plant medicine to support her family and the wider community. She strives to promote balanced well-being for everyone, particularly our children. With both her sons, Tory has experienced the joys and challenges of different educational paths. Her oldest son thrived in a traditional school environment, while her youngest, diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), faced difficulties in that setting. This led Tory to embrace home as the primary space for her youngest son's education, creating a nurturing and supportive learning environment tailored to his needs. Torys parenting and education philosophy focuses on equipping children with practical tools to thrive, and counters the pressures of high-speed living whilst fostering a sustainable, supportive legacy where children feel seen and heard. Governments don't change the things we need. People do.
