I could not make a higher recommendation for Sharon Selby’s seven week, online Brain Science and Self Empowerment programs. As a healthcare worker, neuroplasticity nerd and mom this program ticked ALL the boxes. I wish every kid and parent had access to these incredible programs. They have been so supportive and helpful in providing our 8 year old with tools to navigate emotional regulation, anxiety and fear, self compassion and the complexities of social relationships. I LOVED that each class was art based learning. Sharon creates an organized, engaging, supportive and safe space for kids to learn and share what they are learning using their own voice and creative gifts. At first I wondered if a group, Zoom based platform, would work to keep our child involved. I was so pleasantly surprised. It was wonderful to see how the kids in the group supported each other in peer based learning. They would sometimes share difficulties they were experiencing and the advice and support they gave each other was so heartwarming. Sharon guides the group with curiosity, wisdom and genuine care making sure everyone feels seen, heard and involved to the best of their ability. I really learned so much too and appreciated the final 10 minutes of each class where the parents got caught up on what the kids learned in their 50 minutes together. If you are reading this review and are on the fence about signing up, just do it. These courses have been an absolute game changer for our family.
