SPEAKER_00

Hi, I'm Douglas Bowden, and this is a bonus episode of The Reframe. I'm joined today by the executive director of the mentoring program, Trina Sieverson. Trina, welcome. Thank you. We wanted to talk a little bit about the season one and the feedback we've gotten and what what it was like uh recording our first season of a podcast.

SPEAKER_01

I know. Gotten a lot of positive feedback, um, which uh is fun, right? Because it well, I put some work into it. You and Jenna put a lot of work into it. Um seems as though people uh enjoyed it. That's fun.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, a lot of feedback. I think it sparked a lot of interesting conversations with people who would call or write emails, and then also influenced something of of what we're doing for season two, which is also going to be on YouTube.

SPEAKER_01

I know. Coming to you in all the dimensions.

SPEAKER_00

What was your what was your favorite episode of season one?

SPEAKER_01

Hmm. I thought about this. I prepared. Really there's a couple of things that stood out. I like the beginning episode, the first one with uh the pendulum swing. Because I think it really set up the season, provided like a framework to check back into. So I thought that that was a good way to start, interesting. I also think it sort of put it time-wise in a good place to start with you attending the Yada conference and really sort of doing this listening to different voices, right, about what's going on in the industry. I think that's an episode that you enjoyed too, and that you said you've gotten a lot of positive feedback about, right?

SPEAKER_00

Not just positive feedback, and as we did for all of them, but but I think it really sparked the most conversation with people calling and people that I would speak to at the various conferences that I've attended over the past year, and and it really it struck a nerve for sure.

SPEAKER_01

Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah. I liked that one. I also liked some of the ones that I participated in or that I participated more actively in the editing. So I like the Neil Wallace one where Neil talks about how to give specific advice to parents with students on the spectrum, right? Since it's something that we run into so often. And I feel as so Neil is such a good communicator, right? Clear, specific, non-judgmental, but still understanding the the the struggle that parents, both with neurodiverse and neurotypical children, have. So I like that episode.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. The other ones, you know, Danny Roccio was certainly a a good one. And Heather Tracy joined us for a couple of them. And uh the not therapy guys, that was that was uh um very interesting to have some people who've been through the experience of having gone to programs themselves and now are on the other side uh helping people, parents as well as teens who are in some form of you know struggling with stuff. So I thought that one was interesting. And then of course we had some of the brand names in the industry that had their episodes. And I'm really looking forward to the diversity of what we've got coming up for season two as well.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I've got Terry Healy coming up, Ross Allenhorn.

SPEAKER_01

We've got to Hey, don't move so fast. What are these guys going to talk about? People don't know all these names. I don't know all these names.

SPEAKER_00

Tune in. Well, the um the Ross Allenhorn one is gonna be a little spicy. I think that'll be fun. Terry Healy is someone who is outside of the industry entirely, but has written a book about resilience as someone who has survived cancer and and what that was like for him and what he learned about resilience. And I thought it had a lot of relevance to to what we talk about on a regular basis and other folks in our industry. So that's exciting.

SPEAKER_01

References back to both I think Dr. Paul Marcille and Kellen Smytes episode from season one, right? Where we talk about resiliency and preparing the child for the world and how parents need to reflect on that, right?

SPEAKER_00

I think the takeaway from Paul Marcille's episode was about training kids to play chicken in their cars.

SPEAKER_01

I was gonna say it's car tag in Wisconsin, yes. But there was more to it than that.

SPEAKER_00

That was one of the things people like to take note of.

SPEAKER_01

I know.

SPEAKER_00

And we have we have Dr. Rob Manieli coming up with uh equino assisted psychotherapy, which is a big uh a big sometimes buzzword and used in a lot of programs, but he's he's the real deal and he's gonna talk about what that's like. So that one as well. Yeah, and that would be fun. He's also a big minor.

SPEAKER_01

I went to observe a s a session that Rob did once. And I know you've done it in the past, but um uh it made me tear up. It was like the most powerful thing that I saw like equine therapy, I think is just sort of something that seems simple, but it provides a lot of I don't know, it's very powerful. Not one that's easily moved from observing clinical approaches, I think, but that one really I remember it. It's been many years and I still remember it.

SPEAKER_00

What do you think about the whole notion of doing a podcast?

SPEAKER_01

I uh was lukewarm when you started, which I think is my healthy approach to some of your projects. But you know, you are the the the the the passion and vision, and I'm like nuts and bolts, uh, which I'm very comfortable with my role. But I um I really enjoyed being part of it. I think it was stressful and then you know, um making things work and listening to yourself on the radio. I um I enjoyed it. And I love to see you and Jenna really take it and build it and then now transform it into season two. I'm excited about it.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, we've gotten a lot better at at at figuring out how to get the technology right and being able to record without having to spend a zillion hours on editing and the first ones were were clunky. And they say it takes like a hundred episodes to really get good at it, and we're like season two, we're almost finished recording. So it's clunk our way through it, you know.

SPEAKER_01

Right. I think what I really liked about this podcast, because both you and I listened to a lot of podcasts, I think we listened to different ones, right? But I liked how the reframe, every episode had a different slant and a different topic and a different sort of like guest, and but at the same time we were sort of illuminating the same struggle from different perspectives every time. So every time was both the same and new, which I really liked, right? So you you had a clear red thread, but at the same time you got to sort of revisit the challenges that parents and young people and the treatment professional industry experiences right now from just like different perspectives all the time, which I really, really liked.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, well, that was the idea. And I think we're still honing it for sure. And uh certainly welcome the comments, the emails, the phone calls. We'd love that. People coming up and having conversations at conferences. That's that always sparks some more. And I see people that I I want to bring on to the podcast. And so we've got we've got some great ones coming up. Uh so I hope everyone uh stays patient with us, and and those who have not subscribed already, please do so. And we'll see you in season two.

SPEAKER_01

Yay! I'm excited. All right, all right.
