Description

Womeness team member and Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), Amber, joins Gen to cohost this week’s episode with Gen’s bestie and sensory guru, Rachel Harrington. Their convo brings up a diet we can all get on board with, a sensory diet. Do you find yourself feeling over stimulated? Run down? Depleted? Anxious? All the above? Then a sensory diet could be the missing link in your regimen. Rachel, COTA/L, AC, CPRCS uses her experience with helping kids and parents understand sensory processing as it relates to daily life to help our community better understand our own nervous system and how to thrive in our own lives. As a mom of 2 and entrepreneur, Rachel shares relatable experiences in her own life including her symptoms of ADHD as an adult and how she claims her sanity and strives to live boldly in her own identity. Amber and Gen challenge their senses through a game of “Lip Sync Challenge” with Rachel and you may, or may not, be surprised at what comes out of their mouths! Join Womeness and Rachel on Saturday, October 14th at 10 am for a kid friendly hike and meditation at Camel’s Back.
