The Human Skills Podcast
Hi, I'm Chris. I train educators at early learning centers, preschools, and community centers in modern neuroscience and emotional intelligence skills.
I use high-energy, roll-up-your-sleeves-and-do-it workshops to make learning stick.

I'm experimenting a bit by putting some of my learnings and experiments here on YouTube. I hope you find it useful.
