Development and Learning for Transformation
When I completed my doctoral work at the University of Georgia, my research focused on developmental learning for transformation. On paper, I understood how people grow and change. I could explain the theories clearly. But something important was missing.
I realized that much of what I knew was theory-bound.
I knew what a chakra was, but I hadn’t experienced it directly.
I knew what yoga was, but I hadn’t practiced it.
I knew what meditation was, but I was still very much a beginner.
I had language and concepts, but not yet the lived understanding that comes from experience.
That realization changed everything.
After completing my dissertation, I opened a learning center—not to teach what I already knew, but to learn. I invited teachers from my local community: yoga teachers, Reiki practitioners, meditation instructors, and others who were offering practical, embodied ways of working with awareness, energy, and healing. I also brought in teachers from outside the region—people whose work expanded my understanding beyond any single tradition. We hosted programs with Silva Mind Control from Texas, and welcomed guided imagery teacher Barry Konicov from Chicago, among others.
What emerged over time was a living laboratory of learning.
Developmental learning for transformation became more than a theory. It became a process—one that unfolds through experience, reflection, practice, and integration. It is the practical side of Feel the Flow: how learning actually happens when insight is paired with lived experience, and when growth is allowed to emerge rather than forced.
Everything shared here grows out of that journey—what I learned, how I learned it, and how developmental change happens when understanding moves from the mind into the body, the emotions, and everyday life.
