Have some feedback? A topic suggestion? Text us!

We know “growth mindset” so why are we so stuck on the idea that resilience is fixed? Dr. G is here to teach us how we, and the rest of the camp industry can be resilient amid such a trying time. You do NOT want to miss this interview!

We are beyond grateful for this conversation with Dr. G. 

Join us as we are dive into how resilience has played a role in our experiences as camp professionals and through the pandemic. This episode is filled with truth bombs and many metaphors for working through the hard moments and digging into how we can support each other and move through our fear and growth zones.  

Tune in to this episode to hear about:

• How has Dr. G and her family faired during the summer of 2020?
• What has she seen from her patience when it comes to their stresses and concerns throughout the COVID-19 Pandemic?
• Hear about how people who have resiliency have fared over the past few months vs. those that are discovering/building their resiliency
• Some advice from Dr. G about how to treat our colleagues in online and offline spaces.
• Tips from Dr. G on how we can build our own resiliency muscles over the next year.
• What recommendations does Dr. G have for camp pros who are struggling with job loss/change, loss of tradition and routine?

Thanks to Dr. G for joining us on this episode! Who else should join us on Beyond Camp? Share in the comments!

Dr. G’s Back to School 2020 Resilience Guide

Dr. G created a page on her site for any camp or youth program to sign up and get your own link to my resources. If you follow the two steps there, she will send you sample emails, newsletter pieces, social media posts to let your families know about what she has
