To kick-off our reboot of this podcast, we're featuring a four-part series with child psychotherapist, speaker and bestselling author Allison Edwards and HSE Mental Health and School Counseling Coordinator Brooke Lawson.

Cultivate Virtual is in the books and this episode has some industry reactions from first-time attendees to this event. We'll cover what they got from the event, things they learned and would apply to future events and how virtual could impact future industry events. What's interesting, is that these industry contacts were able to experience this event only because it was virtual. This kind of platform can lead to great exposure and visibility to a much larger audience than might never had access to before, whether it was due to travel or scheduling. It validates the idea that used creatively virtual could be here to stay.Our guests on this episode include;- Alison Edwards - Marketing & Communications, Burgon & Ball- Warren Gorowitz - Director of Corporate Social Responsibility, Hunter Industries- Peggy Riccio - Owner of pegplant.com and fellow Gardencomm memberCONNECT WITH USEnjoy this episode or have questions?

On this episode, we're talking about indoor plants, a trend that became popular in the 70s, and has been making its way back into homes throughout Europe and in the US. For the past several years in the UK, people have taking to indoor plants for their many benefits for their overall health and well-being. There have been many studies done to demonstrate how indoor plants improve the air quality in our home, help to reduce stress and sharpen our focus. The trend is growing here in the US too thanks to social media and the #shelfie and #indoorjungle posts. Our guest is Alison Edwards, based in Poole UK, who is the PR manager for Burgon & Ball. She shares her insights about the indoor plant revival and essential care tips and tools needed to be successful.

We may all be English teachers and a little obsessed with the fact that "a lot" is not one word -- but we also all love books. Dave Walsh and Alison Edwards are, unlike me, on the frontlines of educating junior-high and high-school students, so they have their fingers on the pulse of YA fiction (and some non-fiction), what kids are reading these days, what kids used to read, and what they think about what kids should be reading (which is, spoiler, pretty much what kids want to read!) Click the Shelf Esteem link at www.trudymorgancole.com to find the show notes listing all the books we talked about.
In this #plantchat episode, we get a first-hand account and recap of the Chelsea Flower Show. Our guest Alison Edwards, of Burgon & Ball garden tools, was on hand at this year’s event to preview the gardens. She provides an inside look into what the show is all about, what takes place during the event, and what it’s like having a product display open to more than 140,000 enthusiastic gardeners. Check out Alison’s photos and recap of the event on the Burgon & Ball journal (blog) and via Instagram and Twitter. You can connect and share this topic with Chris at Corona Tools, using #plantchat on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
Daniel and Rob sit down during spring break to talk a bit about mentors and their importance, as well as the growing trend to go academic rogue and what that means (inspired by the blog postings of a rogue linguist, Alison Edwards). But first, Daniel can't help but clue Rob in on academic twitter and a firestorm that happened when an undergrad said something about granting extensions. (Standard disclaimers apply.)
Alison Edwards is a prominent painter in Glastonbury, England. She paints in a beautiful and fluid style, which is at times otherworldly and perhaps reminiscent of the Nabis, Impressionists and Neo-Impressionists, but with a freshness which places her paintings firmly in the New Age of Aquarius. We begin by discussing her background and influences.
