• Learning, Adapting, Growing
    Dec 25 2023

    Doc Royer says, "One of the greatest things is how well we can adapt and learn to function in different environments under different stressors. I wouldn't do my job if I didn't believe that people could learn and change and that the human brain and body are amazing, even in the worst situation. That it can learn new pathways can learn new responses. It can learn to be at its best in pressure situations.  Change and learning are at our core, and that's how we exist; as we grow, it comes from that."
