Trivium Dad Podcast

Please find part 2 of my conversation with Grace as we continue to discuss mental health, her traumatic experiences living with her stepfather, career conversation, and finally, her paranormal investigation hobby! Grace's Bio Hello, my name is Grace. I am 22 years old, and I am from a small rural town in Central Texas. I am writing this today in order to speak to you about mental health- including some of my personal quirks, how my journey began, and how I have matured with my coping mechanisms and techniques. I was officially diagnosed with depression and anxiety at the age of 15, and I have shown traits of pretty severe OCD for my entire life; but that has yet to be officially diagnosed- probably because I've been too afraid to discuss those tendencies in a “professional” setting. If anyone is interested in hearing more about identifying or living with abuse; living with depression or anxiety; working corrections; or just general conversation, please reach out to me.   Leave a comment to be featured on an upcoming episode: https://triviumdadpodcast.podbean.com/ ---------------------------- Connect with me on: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/uesnys/ Twitter | https://twitter.com/uesnys Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/uesnys/ Main Site | https://uesnys.com/ My Podcast | https://uesnys.com/triviumdadpodcast/ Patreon | https://www.patreon.com/triviumdad

In NYC, getting into a competitive middle school is more challenging than getting into Harvard.  It is complicated to navigate the NYC middle school admissions process as it lacks transparency and restricts the number of applications to its elite public schools. The advantages of attending a screened school are that the school's average size is smaller compared to an unscreened school.  The increased rigor of academic quality and higher-level curriculum, access to learning labs, more options for extracurricular activities, due to a larger school budget and taught by exceptional teachers. Nicholas Jones will discuss the middle school admissions landscape to simplify the timeline, terminology, and process. Leave a comment to be featured on an upcoming episode: https://triviumdadpodcast.podbean.com/----------------------------Connect with me on: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/uesnys/Twitter | https://twitter.com/uesnysFacebook | https://www.facebook.com/uesnys/Main Site | https://uesnys.com/My Podcast | https://uesnys.com/triviumdadpodcast/Patreon | https://www.patreon.com/triviumdad

I am super excited to conduct my first interview on the Trivium Dad podcast. I am excited to have my guest Sensei Rean Wisky, owner of Dynamic Martial Art Academy, on the show.  Rean and I  discussed youth training in the martial arts and the many benefits that are not always obvious to others. As we discussed the practice of martial arts as a viable choice to promote health, both physical and mental, we did not neglect the opposing viewpoints of antisocial behavior and aggressiveness.  Lastly, you will get an inside perspective if you are considering enrolling your child in martial arts. Leave a comment to be featured on an upcoming episode: https://triviumdadpodcast.podbean.com/—————————————————————————————Guest: Sensei Rean WiskyFacebook | https://www.facebook.com/DynamicMartialArtsAcademy/Main Site | https://dynamicmartialartsacademy.com/Email | dmaacademy@gmail.com —————————————————————————————Connect with me on: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/uesnys/Twitter | https://twitter.com/uesnysFacebook | https://www.facebook.com/uesnys/Main Site | https://uesnys.com/My Podcasts | https://uesnys.com/triviumdadpodcast/Patreon | https://www.patreon.com/triviumdad
