INTS Wish for the top spot -- 𝚐𝚎𝚝𝚂𝙲𝚙𝚛𝚘

If you have a child with a learning disability you will really appreciate this very special program. As the parent of a child with a learning disability, this is very personal for me. I am aware that some parents go through a period of denial, and can't accept that their child has a problem with learning. I understand the feeling of helplessness many parents often experience watching their child with a learning disability struggle to function. I am familiar with the stigmatization, and the embarrassment the child may feel. I know what it is like as a parent having to deal with teachers and a public school system that just can't comprehend how to help children with disabilities. During this program, my special guest, Mr. Ronnie Sidney, will share his own personal experience dealing with his learning disability and how it affected him, and how he was ultimately able to overcome it and achieve extraordinary success. Mr. Sidney is a therapist, entrepreneur, app developer, professional speaker, author, consultant, workshop presenter and social advocate. He is the author of "Nelson Beats the Odds", a semi-autobiographical graphic novel about a young man diagnosed with a learning disability and ADHD. With the help of his parents and special education teacher, Nelson graduates from college and becomes a social worker. We will also provide important information for parents, teachers, and schools, including parents' legal rights, from Mr. Sidney, and from other professionals.

We have a problem in America.

MASTERING THE ART OF HAVING A CAREER; NOT JUST FINDING A JOB

"What is mental health? How can you work to improve and maintain your mental health if you don’t even know what that means?"  Those questions are from an article in Psychology Today.  The writer of this article, Nancy S. Buck, PhD, goes on to say, "...when it comes to mental health we can’t even define it let alone take steps to develop or improve it." 
 
In a comprehensive new review published in Applied Psychology: Health and Well-Being, the effects of “subjective well-being”—a measure of how people evaluate their own lives—on various aspects of physical health was examined. According to lead author Edward Diener, professor of social psychology at the University of Utah, these studies have confirmed, with “almost no doubt,” that happiness really can influence health.”
 
In this week's program we will discuss why it is necessary to view mental health as important as physical health, and the importance happiness plays in achieving and maintaining good mental health.
