We wanted to kick off 2023 with a fun, stress-free episode that helps us all break free from stress. Enter Dr. Gina Simmons Schneider, a licensed psychotherapist, executive coach, and the author of Frazzlebrain: Break Free from Anxiety, Anger, and Stress Using Advanced Discoveries in Neuropsychology (Central Recovery Press, April 2022). Dr. Schneider is a coping skills expert with more than 25 years of experience helping people regulate difficult emotions and conflicts. We talk challenges and strategies for kids and adults alike, and even hit on a short film idea we plan to call COMPELLING FANTASIES.
