Carol’s Story

A PhD in Developmental Psychology and stellar career working with hundreds of children and families nearly crashed and burned just as it was getting started when Carol faced her ACEs in her 30s. But rather than become that nosedive and trail of smoke, she rose from the ashes of her loss, grief, and trauma.

She rebuilt her SASS from the ground up and has now committed her terceñiera—the “third act” of her life—to sharing this wisdom and lifting others on the rise. A recognized thought leader in her professional world, Carol also earned an MA in Early Childhood Education and Behavior Analysis, a BA in Human Development and Family Life, with a minor in Psychology, and a BA in Anthropology, prior to completing her Doctorate.
