PODCAST / OCTOBER 2023
In October 2023, Allison was asked by Je’Nen and Evelyn, of Practice Disrupted, to share my perspective on mental health strategies for architects and designers. This was especially rewarding as a graduate of the NCSU College of Design, and felt like a full circle moment bringing together both my foundation of design and passion for mental health and well-being.

TedXEnloeHighSchool
"In April of 2018, the lovely students at Enloe High School in Raleigh hosted their own TEDx event. I was honored to be invited to speak, so excited to share what I love with others..and terrified. The final product isn't perfect (the slide clicker ran out of batteries halfway through the show), but hey, that's real life, right?! As I look at this video I realize that not only was it awesome to tell so many people about self-compassion, it was evidence of how far I'd come from being scared to raise my hand in class. I could have never imagined being up on a stage speaking, but it's actually through those very ideas I share in my talk, that made it possible for me to do this...broken clickers and all!" -Allison
