Author Robyn Greenspan speaks with Coach Courtney and host Patty Lubold about how she turned corporate burnout and worsening ADHD symptoms into an opportunity to rediscover her purpose and joy.

We revisit our first and most downloaded episode of 2023 - a lifeline of hope - Episode 1 - and update the story with new reflections from Coach Courtney and our special guest, her son Will. Together they share what has worked to build trust over the last year and why letting go and leaning in with positive intent works both ways.

In this episode Patty and Courtney dive into neuroplasticity with developmental specialist Pam Formosa. They discuss the brain's remarkable capacity to reorganize and create new neural connections that can be influenced with the integration of primitive reflexes and movement. The conversation draws from learnings that Pam, as an occupational therapist, and Courtney as a physical therapist have seen throughout their professional careers.

In this SeeMe episode, career education experts Eric and Alyssa Hammond discuss the importance of helping young adults discover their strengths and career paths. While conventional wisdom often has leaders focusing on shoring up their weaknesses to succeed, Alyssa and Eric, through their consultancy, College Career Compass, use the Clifton Strengths and the Strong inventory assessments to help teens and young adults understand their innate talents and how to use them to their advantage instead of wasting time on what is most difficult. Eric and Alyssa, who is also the award-winning director of Undergraduate Career Development at Bentley University, say that focusing on strengths allows teens and young adults to embrace their unique abilities so they can thrive in various areas of life that are important to them.

In this second of our two-part interview, author, educator, and dyslexic thinker Catherine Kapphahn discusses learning trauma with Patty and Coach Courtney. The conversation also touches on how we as parents can get sucked into solely focusing on grades and test scores to the detriment of your child’s curiosity and what Catherine calls a learning soul.
