    • Självhjälp

I loved having this awesome conversation with Wilderness Therapy expert, Jean Coyle. Jean shares her passion for her work as a field guide at First Light Wilderness Therapy, the impact trauma has on each of our lives, and the importance of cultivating social-emotional skills.

Specifically, we go into the different types of trauma and its effects on how we reason, how we understand, how we cope, and ultimately how we regulate ourselves in the world. Take a listen to learn more about what it means to navigate your life with your lid flipped, how to strengthen your coping skills, and how to cultivate more meaning in your life by using your WHY as your guide. See you there!

The practice [PLAY NOW]: @28:00 Learn about The Quick Coherence Technique by Heart Math to check in with yourself and help you regulate your nervous system so you can respond to your life with more confidence and ease.

About Jean:
Jean began her journey in the outdoor industry in college, at Loyola University Maryland. During her time at Loyola, she was an active member of the Outdoor Adventure Experience Program (OAE) program. During this time, she led white water kayaking trips with fellow students. Jean learned that a joy she has in life is facilitating challenges and teaching in the outdoors. As graduation came closer, she was looking for a way to work with adolescents in the outdoors as well as combing her interest in working with families. As a result, she went to work for the Family In Need of Service (FINS) Program in Central and Southern Florida. This program was a partnership with the Department of Juvenile Justice System as well as North Carolina Outward Bound. During her time at the FINS program, she was an instructor, staff trainer, and course director. She worked with students ages 12 - 17 leading 20-day canoeing trips and teaching lessons in communication, decision-making skills as well as emotional management skills. In 2020 when this program closed Jean found her way to SUWS of the Carolinas and began her journey in Wilderness Therapy. Jean spent six months as a Field Guide before transitioning over to First Light Wilderness Therapy as a Field Director. In Jean's role as a Field Director she hires, trains, and mentors staff. Jean is passionate about creating community in the industry both amongst field guides as well as programs because at the end of the day we are all trying to be the best versions of ourselves to better work with our families. Our families deserve the best version of us, our students deserve the best version of us, and we as individuals deserve to be the best version of ourselves.
