PRESENTERS
Gail Murray
Gail holds a Master’s Degree in Education with a specialization in intervention and instructional design. She is a certified professional wellness coach and a yoga instructor. With 32 years of teaching experience in public schools and 4 years of working with adolescents in an inpatient psychiatric hospital, Gail brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to her work. Her quest to foster calm and resilience began in 2012 following the passing of her sons’ father. Motivated by a desire to equip her sons with essential resiliency skills, she has dedicated herself to gaining expertise in emotional wellness and personal development across all areas of life, including educational, clinical and home settings.
Shaney Andler
Shaney is a special education teacher having taught in classrooms, in a nonprofit setting and an adolescent psychiatric hospital. However her true mental health related expertise came from helping her struggling son to develop lifelong coping skills. After working with her son as well as hundreds of struggling kids, Shaney came to find that kids are not organically learning coping skills anymore, in large part because of the introduction of technology and wrote Back Pocket and the Back Pocket workshop. Her new book Back Pocket for Parents launched this past summer.
