Description

Featured

During this course, students will learn some fundamental principles of how the mind and brain work through the lens of psychology and neuroscience. For example, students learn the neuroscience basis of cognitive biases, discrimination, and prejudices. They will also learn about the nature of diversity, the theory of intersectionality, and stress and recovery associated with traumas. Ultimately, all of the learning prepares the students’ brains to think more inclusively, appreciate diversity, and serve as agents of social change.

Mandy Wintink

I am very curious about why people do the things they do and why they don’t do what they should. Together we explore who, why, what, how, and where you are and end up discovering direction, purpose, and a plan of action.

I am a guest speaker for the Life Coaching Certification Course, after having taught the course from 2010 - 2020.
