Dr. Valerie Parker is an educator, administrator, parent and wife, and serves as the Education Committee Chair for the Howard County Branch of the NAACP. She’s a self-proclaimed “fierce advocate for black boys everywhere,” and her research focuses on teacher perception of behavior that leads to student misconstruction. Dr. Parker firmly believes that changes in our perception can help address much larger, systemic issues: particularly the school to prison pipeline. Essential Takeaways: • Changes in perception can positively address and affect systemic problems. • Self-regulation and building relationships with black youth isn’t optional, it’s crucial. • Identifying your own implicit biases and triggers is essential to stopping the school to prison pipeline.

Kristin Chesterman is a deep believer that all behavior is a form of communication. Addressing the lack of skills in a student (or scholar as she refers to them) is the key to regulation success. As a Title 1 Behavioral Support Teacher serving approximately 615 students in Indiana, Kristin shares personal examples of how the implementation of Conscious Discipline’s powers, skills, and strategies in connection with Brain State knowledge cultivate an inclusive School Family. In this episode, she explains how Conscious Discipline provided the framework for a Junior Coaching Program and prompted a transformative shift in their school culture among their teachers. Essential Takeaways: For implementation success, teachers and administrators need to be open and curious about their perspectives concerning outcomes. A behavioral or SEL approach does not have to be prescriptive: Conscious Discipline is a framework. All behavior is a form of communication, and fortifying skills rather than denying access/inclusion is the path to self-regulation success. Vulnerability is key to connection. Regulation starts with the adults in the room. What you give to others, you strengthen within yourself.

Accepting the task of helping to heal the pain and trauma of abused and abandoned children comes with some enormous challenges, but they’re challenges those at Conscious Discipline and Laura Angulo believe to be well worthwhile. A former special educator and current psychologist, Laura now partners with a facility for abandoned children in Cali, Colombia that serves up to 100 children from ages 0-8. There, Laura supports 30 staff members as they implement and model Conscious Discipline, providing hope, facilitating healing, and a way forward. Join Dr. Bailey in conversation with Laura Angulo to learn how she has used the healing powers of Baby Doll Circle Time and I Love You Rituals to rebuild attachment structures in the lives of children who have lived through severe trauma and abandonment, and how these activities are not just for children. Essential Takeaways: • Laura and staff members learned it was possible to identify/flag previous abuse by observing the implementation of Baby Doll Circle Time. • Begin with rituals that have already been implemented as a common ground to work from. • Laura modeled Baby Doll Circle Time and led the staff in the activities before introducing them to the children. • Children who are over-aroused or under-aroused due to trauma benefit from I Love You Rituals. • Laura divided the Baby Doll Circle Time training for staff into two sessions on different days to allow for better processing and accurate implementation.
