To me, it's really about are the lights in our kids eyes on?
And a lot of us have these bright eyed kids.
And when they get to early adolescence, preteen adolescence, it starts to fade and it could fade for hormonal reasons, for social reasons, for academic reasons.
But really, it's about trying to sidle up.
next to them physically or actually metaphorically and help them figure out what is going on in their life so they can keep stepping in a direction that they are engaged in.
Great to be back, Debbie.
Absolutely.
So I am a licensed psychologist by training and work, and I am the executive director of our center called the Summit Center in California, predominantly in Northern California with an office in Southern California as well.
And our goal is to help children, adolescents, families, and adults reach their developmental potential, like fully become who they are meant to be.
And with that, a specialty of ours, in addition to working with learning differences and anxiety and other emotional and developmental issues, is focusing on gifted and twice exceptional individuals, all of those wonderful neurodiverse people with amazing potential.
So we do a lot of testing and consulting and counseling for those folks.
And the other part of my life is working on the Parent Footprint podcast, which you have been a guest and are going to be a guest soon as well again, which I'm excited about.
And that mission and goal is to make the world a more loving place, one parent and one child at a time.
Oh, huge.
It's huge.
It's all the time.
I mean, we work with kids of all ages, but a lot of adolescents and pre-adolescents, adolescents, and then
young adults and people going off to college.
And of course, this whole thing about getting them ready to go off to college and when, you know, when does it have to happen and where are they going to go?
Um, and then as you know, since we, um, I feel fortunate sharing with you, um, our own parenting journey when we get to meet up is just with my own teenagers, young adults.
