Abnormal circumstances go with abnormal feelings is the best. I also like gripping something and letting it go to help letting go of emotions. SE, GT Educator. SENG Conference 2015.
Abnormal feelings
I like how you bring in the Hero’s Journey and how gifted students’ differences are an invitation to this inner adventure. I want to learn more in how to help GT students understand this too. Attendee CAGT 2016

I like how you showed us that sensitive or gifted kids aren’t inferior or defective, they’re Different by Design!

A strong reflective process
Thank you again for everything you have done for both my son and myself! He has been coming home happier than I have seen him in years, and more willing to share about his day at school than ever before. He is setting his alarm clock without reminders, taking showers without reminders, making his lunch, and seeking teachers for clarification of assignments!!!! When I tried to remind him about something last week, he said, “If you want me to be independent, let me be independent and figure it out for myself.” I am so happy that he is taking the initiative on his own! I am thrilled. With deepest appreciation! From the Mom of an 8th/ now 9th grade gifted boy.
