Hope doesn’t come out of nowhere — it is cultivated through reflecting on and learning from one’s history of hoping…and writing a flexible plan for the future ✍️ - Such a powerful plenary on hope in #thisispedspsych from Dr. Jacqueline Mattis #SPPAC2024 Society of Pediatric Psychology


I’ll also never get over how beautiful the opening session was at #SPPAC2024. Utmost congratulations to Dr. Naadira Upshaw & Dr. Lauren Harrison for curating a wonderful conference with such intentional spaces of joyful community! ❤️

Agreed! I’ll so never forget the feeling of witnessing Malika (they/them) ✨SHINE✨ alongside Lori Crosby. They are a force to be reckoned with and I am grateful for the opportunity to be their biggest fan!
