💸 [25:24] Stories that are affecting and connecting to the audience: no need for huge budgets.
🫣 [27:02] Actors are hiding themselves from the world behind their careers: embrace your flaws and bring your insecurities.
🚒 [29:18] LA fires and disaster that was fatal to many: living in bubbles and need for helping each other.
🌸 [32:45] We can’t control our lives: nothing is guaranteed, and we need to accept life is not a formula.

👨‍🏫 [01:32] Rob’s origin story is fueled by a passion for connecting with students.: being a teenage drumming teacher and evolving into an educator.

🤕 [05:19] The car accident that changed everything: how physical trauma led him to martial arts, Tai Chi, and Qigong as healing tools.

☯️ [10:11] Rob’s approach to reducing classroom stress: Kung fu and Qigong in class for kids, teachers, and even parents - balance is needed for all.

🎓 [16:51] Rob’s critique of standardized education: There are unmeasurable types of intelligence that are very important.

☮️ [21:31] Stressed teachers create stressed students—and why supporting educators is the first step.

🧠 [24:44] Teachers are not trained to work with ADHD kids: the system forces them to sit still for 7 hours and breath; movement and focus can fix this.

😮‍💨 [30:56] Teach kids diaphragmatic breathing to self-regulate (e.g., "Inhale for 4, exhale for 8").

💎 [33:28] Connection makes him tick, and if we connect teachers and students to their bodies, the changes will be amazing.

  • Thomas Merton (contemplative monk bridging Christianity and Zen).

In Shana's own words:

Growing up, I watched the people around me and saw so much pressure to pretend. Most people were scripting their lives from the dictations of their parents and society...here is how you become a female or male adult...do these things, don’t do these things...this is the life you ‘should’ be leading...what your life should look like...this is the life you want; this binary is the only acceptable way.

I was born into an abusive household and was raised inside an evangelical Christian cult. Because I experienced my life almost entirely as high control and was punished for being myself. Imaginary worlds were my only safe space and books became my friends and mentors.

My life doesn’t look at all like my childhood. I spent the last fifteen years studying psychology as an amateur, building on my emotional intelligence and personal awareness moving through life and healing. I have changed so much in the last 7 years and as a result, so has the business since I started it part-time in 2016.

Several years ago while leading group coaching for entrepreneurs and business owners of varying years and decades of experience I realized my scholarly studies were taking up more and more space in the world.

Through the process of building the firm and connecting with clients, I realized that our mission is larger than I originally imagined. I needed to let our ethos, our culture and the brand take up more space in the world, support and work with more people in a deeper and more expansive way.

My work went from focusing on empowering others to design their lives through intention to recognize the power of my work with leadership as well as in our individual lives and now focuses on Intentional and Ethical Leadership and Living.

We empower people, and those who are also leaders, to connect with curiosity, respect, and accountability to transform their lives and leadership. To build community and connection and to move away from the idea of a lonely leader at the top to understanding the power and strength of a community of voices driving innovation and profitability through a healthy culture.

Learn more about NOLA Papa and by "The Secret Mermaid Revue" at : https://nolapapa.com/

In Eriks Own Words:

My name is Erik Alexander and my husband and I are from New Orleans, Louisiana. We have two independently assertive daughters and an eager baby boy trying to keep up with his sisters.

We strongly feel that as an LGBTQ family, especially in the south, it's important for us and others like us to help light the way for the ones that need hope. We live in an incredibly divisive time and right now visibility is critical to help destigmatize and normalize same-sex families.

We love our children just as any other straight family does, if not more than some.
Just like them, we would do anything on Earth for our babies. We do that every single day, regardless if we are two dads.

It is my mission to broaden the one-sided view of the stereotypical American family. We too are living the American dream. We are the new normal, a loving family that teaches our children acceptance of all walks of life and the importance of being kind to one another.
​Our place in this world is earned, not owed.

My hope is that through my blog, Nolapapa.com, I am able to bury my insecurities, my fears, and my failures- for all to read, in hopes to see my weaknesses sprout and transform into self-improvement, and resilience, and embrace an unapologetic renewal. My past helped make me who I am today- but who I am tomorrow depends on how I choose to get there, today.
