The Psychology of a Label with Alison Elsberry

This interview is dear to my heart.

Your child is not broken – the system is.

All the systems. In this interview with Alison Elsberry of Embodied Brilliance, Alison shares what she learned in her 20+ years as an Occupational Therapist. Some of the wisdom gained include:

  • The energetic and emotional implications of a label

  • The monetization of a child’s biology

  • Tools for empowered parenting

  • Meeting the child where they are at

This last bullet point is what prompted Alison to leave the system so that she can wholly and holistically support babies and their families to live an embodied and empowered life.
