Alcuin College approached Sharon Selby to present on the topic of building resilience in our children. We wanted to have our parents better understand how to support their children as they transition into independent learners. Sharon has a wealth of knowledge that she translates into practical techniques parents can depend on to help their children through the inherent challenges of childhood. She shares how to create an environment that facilitates connection between you and your child along with opportunities to build the skills necessary to independently regulate emotions and problem solve. I would highly recommend Sharon Selby for any organization hoping to build a better understanding in the areas of self-regulation, resilience, and child anxiety. Her presentation is an informative, concrete hour that will impact how you view the realities of childhood today and the tools that you can use to reduce their negative impact.

I just wanted to let you know that your “Brain Science” course has made a beautiful difference in our daughter’s life. She developed an intense fear of the ocean this spring and summer as COVID changed our lives. That fear was very limiting as we live so close to the water. We spent much of the summer doing the same trail walk she was comfortable with in the woods, instead of enjoying local beaches and enjoying the beautiful sea wall near our home. Last weekend, before we headed out the door for that old familiar hike, she said she wanted to walk by the ocean instead. We have so missed doing this walk as a family, but she used to shake and sob if we tried to force it. This past weekend, she was so confident and proud of herself as she walked. You have given her the concept that her feras may not be the truth and she can choose to send them away.

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.
