Ron and Robin kick off Season 2 with Maureen Burford; a veteran teacher with 38 years of experience working with students from the early years through college. As founding director of the nonprofit Creative Lives, Maureen trains educators and parents in an innovative, whole child approach that helps young people reach their potential and thrive. In 2019, she received The Lynn von Trapp Award for excellence in leading programs for youth in Vermont. Maureen holds an M.Ed. in Creative Education from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and a B.A. in music from Cornell University.
Listen in to learn more about the Creative Lives approach; A Framework for Wise Education by author and counselor Ellen Tadd — based on her observations of our human energy system, or chakra system, and it’s fundamental role in human development.
You can't help but lean into this incredible conversation about the chakra system and how the energy system has been observed by different cultures around the world. There are seven energy centers in the human energy field that correlate to places in our physical body. Each of these chakras represents an aspect of our nature. And, as Ellen would say, it is through the system that we receive, and process, and express, our life‘s experiences.
ENERGY MATTERS!!! Maureen believes the Chakra energy system is the missing piece in our collective understanding of healthy human development!
Maureen's 9-week Foundations 1 Course begins in January 2024 and you can learn more and/or register on the website https://www.creativelives.org/

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
