RGC26-15. Dr. Susan L. Blumberg, Ph.D. & Neurodivergences


Raising Our Gifted Children with Sara Troy and her guest Dr. Susan L. Blumberg, Ph,D. On air from April April 14th

I help families go from chaos and conflict to mutual trust, respect and connection, and help teens become the successful, independent adults they are meant to be. I help all teens,  but love working with neurodivergent and twice exceptional teens.

I also specialize in working with youth and adults with Nonverbal Learning Disability and Autism Spectrum Disorder.

I am passionate about helping people reach their goals. For over thirty years, my goal has been to help children, adolescents, adults, and families to overcome stress, anxiety, depression and other obstacles to find joy and success in their own lives. Why? Because working with families and individuals to achieve their life goals is my goal in life! I find great satisfaction in supporting my clients through their tough times, in helping them think through issues, and in resolving emotional and behavioral problems.

I’m a married mother of two young adult, twice-exceptional children. I’ve lived in Colorado for over 40 years, but I still think of myself as a New Yorker!

My background in cognitive behavioral therapy informs my work as a life coach, as I help people set goals, plan their journey, and achieve success. I worked as a licensed clinical psychologist for over 20 years, in mental health agencies, in private practice, and for the federal government overseeing child welfare and adoption services in the Rocky Mountain region. This has given me a solid and varied background, and extensive level of experience.

Working as a special education advocate for 40 years means I have honed my skills as a negotiator, my ability to collaborate, and my understanding of being a team member. I always put your child first. I have training from the Arc, Wrightslaw, and I was a member of COPAA, the Council Of Parent Attorneys and Advocates. I have sat on both sides of the IEP table, as a professional and a parent, which gives me an unique perspective. Though I am not currrently taking new clients, I am available for consultation as needed.

I am also the coauthor of multiple books, including Fighting for Your Marriage (2010, Markman, Stanley & Blumberg), 12 Hours to a Great Marriage (2003, Markman, Stanley & Blumberg) and Parenting a Child with Sensory Processing Disorder: a family guide to understanding and supporting your sensory-sensitive child (2006, Auer & Blumberg).

BB26-13. Gayle Marie Morrison & The Clarity Compass 


Building your business with Sara Troy and her guest Gayle Marie Morrison, on air from March 31st

Messaging Alchemy: Turning Your Story into a Business Magnet”
Every entrepreneur has a story, but few know how to craft it into a message that moves people to action. This episode unpacks the psychology and heart behind storytelling in business, how to turn your lessons, experiences, and even struggles into magnetic brand messaging that converts.
Your story is not just your past; it’s your positioning power. When told strategically, it transforms from a narrative into your most valuable marketing asset.

My “why” has always been rooted in transformation. I help purpose-driven entrepreneurs find their voice, own their story, and build businesses that reflect who they truly are. Through my own journey, I’ve learned that visibility without alignment leads to burnout, but when your message mirrors your mission, it becomes magnetic. Over the years, I’ve evolved from simply creating marketing strategies to guiding others through clarity, confidence, and conscious communication. What drives me now is witnessing that moment when someone realizes they can lead, serve, and prosper without compromising their authenticity. My work is about helping people be seen for who they are, not just what they sell, because that’s where true business growth and impact begin.

IG26-09. Janet M. Schwartz, Ph.D. Authentic Intelligence.


Ignite your heart and soul with Sara Troy and her guest Janet M. Schwartz, Ph.D. On air from March 3rd

I am a forever believer in the potential for humanity.  I want to help you, your family, your community, your state, our country, and all nations.  As Authentic Human Beings, we yearn for Authentic connections, and we may discover them in random moments throughout our day.  My hope is to awaken our need to attach to one another, to awaken our want to help every Authentic other, and to cultivate an interest in expressing Authentic caring in a conversational art form. 

The dawn of each new day presents abundant opportunities for us to bring new energy to the forefront.  One way to begin anew is by understanding our Treasure of Intelligences.  By feeding our mental, emotional, and spiritual intelligences and making them work together, we will begin to view ourselves, those we love, and those we help through lenses of possibility rather than through lenses of limitations.  Tapping into your Authentic Intelligence  (AI+) is the only way to have the clarity and knowing you need to live your full potential and enjoy emotional well-being.

Improvements in how we treat each other, the quality of our solutions to our problems and more are on the horizon. Rise up, stand tall and raise your voices as we work one-on-one, family-by-family, community-by-community, state-by-state, and nation-by-nation to build a world unafraid to answer the call.

I currently serve as President & Forensic Behavioral Scientist of Forensic Fraud Research, Inc., a non-profit, not-for-fee investigative firm that became affiliated with the National White Collar Crime Center in 2003.  To protect the confidentiality of sources and colleagues, I am the only face associated with the firm, though the organization is comprised of many skilled professionals along with federal, state, and local authorities.

Author & speaker Dr. Jan Mielke Schwartz, “is considered to be one of the most theoretically minded, hopeful, and erudite professionals in the fields of Criminology, Forensic Behavioral Science, Intelligence, and Homeland Security.” (LAWeekly.com: September 28, 2022)  She brings warmth, authenticity, conviction, and a ‘knowing’ of how to navigate the fine line between optimism and pessimism into her projects.  Noted by the University of Pittsburgh as “one of those who show high promise of significant contribution to society and progress,” her first book, Last Summer with Oscar:  An Adventurous True Story of Love and Courage, launched as an international bestseller on Amazon.com which was followed by a how-to-do-it Last Summer with Oscar Workbook.  Jan is presently completing a new non-fiction book, “Authentic Intelligence:  How to Use Your Mental, Emotional & Spiritual Gifts to Create the Life – and World – You Want.

Jan was devoted to working with children and families for seventeen years.  She taught grades K, 1, 7 and 8, coordinated a gifted program for middle school youngsters, and worked as a child counselor at a domestic violence shelter prior to receiving graduate training to become a family psychologist.  However, the discovery of any evidence catapulted her from dreaming of one day having a free family therapy clinic to a career in forensic fraud research.  With great effort and unusual collaboration, the evidence unfolded into numerous state and multi-state investigations.  Over the subsequent years, Schwartz became an internationally known expert on the white-collar organized crime and the white-collar organized community as she continued her intelligence gathering efforts that contribute to strengthening our country and helping to build a better, safer world.

A forever believer in the potential of humanity, Jan cares deeply about helping individuals, families, communities, states, and all nations as they strive to thrive, heal, and further their growth and effectiveness.  She welcomes hearing from one and all.
