At the very top of Denmark, where it juts into the North Sea, sits Hamlet's Castle. One of its windows offers a view into the courtyard where Danish royalty have walked. Shakespeare imagined a fictional Prince Hamlet living his tragic life here and contemplating
"To be or not to be..." I can relate just a tiny bit to Hamlet's reflective thinking. As an international trainer for the Feuerstein Institute, I have had the honor of training teachers, parents, and psychologists all over the world. My first experience in cross-cultural training was in South Africa. As I completed my first day, I remember thinking, "THIS is what God created me to do!" Seven countries (and three continents) later, I still firmly believe that. But shall I continue
"to be or not to be" only a trainer who trots the globe? So recently I sensed a new passion for my own home town. The bottom-line is this - so what if I train people around the world if I am not helping families in my own town? So the MindCAP Center has begun! I had no trouble finding a team of amazing professionals who share that passion: Greta Ehlers, Karla Sheley, Vicki Snyder, and Laura Taliaferro will work beside me to meet the cognitive challenges brought to us by those who want to improve how they think and learn. Its a tad difficult when your services have such broad applications such as ADHD, traumatic brain injury, aging, genetic conditions, cognitive fog, etc., etc. for children or adults. We moved into our new space at 6507 Constitution Drive the day after Christmas. What a gift! I am excited to look through this new window into a new world here in my own home town where the adventure is yet
to be!
