Lauren takes every opportunity to explore the applications of behavioral science, neuropsychology research, and mindfulness within the contexts of emotions and implicit bias, using this information to reimagine systems that are equitable, relationships-based and sustainable. She is also a New York Times bestseller for her co-authored book Tiny Humans Big Emotions
Angela Carolina’s love for teaching, learning and caregiving began well over 15 years ago in a small desert town in New Mexico. In that time, she researched young children’s play through the lens of human behavior and institutionalization. Through the twists and turns of her development and reflective practice, she now cares for fellow early childhood educators using tools and frameworks grounded in embodiment, slowness, nervous system awareness, the teachings of Mother Earth, and spirituality. Her multilayered approach to care for herself and others is her resistance and activism to exploitive systems.
With healing centered education at the heart of our work, we are deeply grounded in the belief that our development is wrapped up in the development of children in the same way our DNA molecules is wrapped around each other 🧬
