Description

I've been super grateful for Ridvan's presence in my family's life. I found her on google! I was looking for a diverse musical theater program that would honor my kids and give them space to grow into themselves. And I found CTC - Peekskill and met Ridvan! She's an occupational therapist, parenting expert, bodywork practitioner.

Ridvan Foxhall, occupational therapist, certified parenting educator and, entrepreneur.  Guided by the belief that every individual has a unique contribution to make, Ridvan Foxhall supports, encourages, and empowers children, youth and their families to discover and work towards their highest potential by providing opportunities to engage in creative and therapeutic programs and workshops. Ridvan created CTC & NECS because she was looking for a creative program for her children that valued the process more than the product and was more about developing life skills than just another gimmick to entertain children and make money.

In this heart to heart conversation, Ridvan and I talk about how

• creating a life mission to help you step away from overwhelm and stress
• growing up in Nigeria and India, and then moving to the US helped her grow into the person she is today
• ignorant she was that she was racially profiled by the police officer that stopped her
• judgmental we were of parents until we have our own kids
• her high energy son helped her learn and grow up
• embracing the questions that your life prompts you to ask clarifies your missions
• creating space for other people to grow can help you create energy and can gain even more than you give
