Insight-Out:
A TRAUMA-SENSITIVE GUIDE TO LEADING ALL KIDS
Why Children Are More Anxious, Aggressive, and Shut Down Than Ever—And What We Can Do About It
This online video series is a companion guide that will put principles into action for community program leaders and change-makers around the world that want to create lasting change from the inside-out!
Children are more anxious, aggressive, and shut down than ever.
We were seeing these shifts before COVID 19 and now it is only intensified. Faced with this epidemic of emotional health crises and behavioural problems, working with kids has become more challenging than ever.
That’s why we built this series.
This 12- session online educational series is a trauma-sensitive guide to creating the conditions for change. It empowers those who lead children and youth with attachment-based strategies to restore their caring leadership role and build emotional safety in their programs. We shed light on what is behind some of the challenging behaviours we see, and look to practices that can help us restore and awaken caring feelings in our children and youth.

Designed for the individual and groups
We offer several options for you to customize your professional development experience and get support in the ways that work best for your team.
Maybe your staff just want to know more about one topic.
Or perhaps they wish for a few sessions to explore a broader theme.
Perfect. Group viewings of the material may be what you want. Get together with your team, explore a topic and discuss!
On the other hand, you may be ready to dive in for the whole discovery journey and purchase a site-license so that your whole team can learn together or individually, at their own pace.
With site-licenses, individuals can access the material on their own, at their own time and get support as they need it. They can visit the material over and over again when challenging behaviours pop up and they need a refresher. Site-licenses also include as many group viewings as you like!
Whether you wish to dip a toe in the water or fully immerse yourself or your team – we welcome you!
We understand that every organization is unique. We can help you customize a learning package that will specifically meet the learning needs of your team.

Testimonials
We have two options for you
2 Year Site License
What are the benefits of having a site license?
Your organization will have support for your staff that is accessible, approachable and science-based. They will have content that will not only provide them with new insights, but with practical tools that they can use daily in their programs. But it’s never just about content – program facilitators want training that is delivered meaningfully – in ways that invite them into the change process.
And so we created just that.
Our series is informative, yet conversational. It provides insights into behaviour and where change comes from but also offers practical tools and suggestions so that participants can bring their learning to life right away with the kids they are working with.
Multiple ways to use this site license:
This digital series is a comprehensive resource that guides individual participants and groups through how to create lasting change through the attachment-based developmental approach.
Program facilitators and instructors can access the videos at their own pace and at the time that works best for them. And although this is a 12 part series, each video also works as a stand alone. Participants can skip ahead to topics of interest and watch the material again as needed. And they never have to worry about getting lost as the resource includes a tracking feature that lets them know where they are each time they log in. They can even share insights and supportive comments with one another in the ‘discussion’ section.
Participants can watch the videos in groups – as often as they wish! This can be especially helpful for team meetings, training, or professional development days. Your team can select topics to view together and engage in discussion following the videos.
Program leaders, child and youth workers, instructors, educators, and mentors (anyone who is leading children and youth!) will have a social-emotional digital resource on hand for whenever they are stuck with a specific dynamic or class. They will have easy access to ongoing support that can help them to understand what is going on with the specific challenging behaviors they are experiencing, how they can build relationship with their toughest students, how to help kids who are stuck seeing themselves as ‘bad’, and how to build the thriving learning community of their dreams.
