  • Years of adoring Robyn

    When I was a baby therapist, I had the honor of being trained by Robyn and was profoundly changed by what she taught me. So to later find her book, website, and podcast—oof—such a treat. Her words and resources continue to deeply impact me and the work I do with staff and students every day in my schools.
