In today’s episode, we’re diving into the story of someone who has spent her life caring for other people’s children with love, patience, and dedication. For years, Jordan, a BCBA and Co-Founder of CEUs by Study Notes ABA, has been the one others relied on, nurturing, teaching, and being there for countless young lives. But now, she’s facing one of the most personal, heart-wrenching journeys of her own—the journey of trying to have a child herself. As she opens up about her struggle with finding out about a joint incompatible with life carrier status and her ongoing experience with IVF, she shares the unexpected emotions, the heartache, and the resilience it takes to keep going when the dream feels just out of reach. This is an honest conversation about sacrifice, hope, and the strength we often don’t realize we have until it’s tested. Join us as we walk alongside her through this chapter of longing, self-reflection, and the undying hope that love will eventually bring her the family she's always dreamed of.Behavior Concepts Covered:Motivating OperationsAbolishing OperationsSDSDeltaRepeatabilityMatching LawNegative ReinforcementPunishmentReinforcementMandRecruit own reinforcementReplacement BehaviorComponent AnalysisTreatment PackageACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)Antecedent modificationContact Us: For podcast inquiries, episode ideas, or just to say hi, email us at [email protected] us a 5-star review in the Apple Podcast App so we can read it to everyone during our episodes and make us super happy!Looking for BCBA Exam Prep or CEUs?Whether you need help passing the BCBA exam or are looking to earn CEUs,Study Notes ABA has you covered.

On today’s episode, the Bitches sit down with Don Moore who identifies the ways confidence behaves in real life and raises thought-provoking questions. How optimistic should you be about an uncertain future? What justifies your confidence in something amorphous and subjective like your attractiveness or sense of humor? Moore reminds us that the key to success is to avoid being both over- and under-confident. In this essential guide, he shows how to become perfectly confident—how to strive for and maintain the well-calibrated, adaptive confidence that can elevate all areas of our lives.

Today on the show, the Bitches sit down with Dr. John Borgen. He is a clinical psychologist and doctoral-level board certified behavior analyst. He has synthesized his education, experience, and expertise into a scientific framework that allows you to succeed when you haven’t before. ABA is an amazing science but let’s be honest we all suck at applying the principles to our own life and habits. Dr. Borgen wrote a book called “Persevere: The Science-based Guide to Starting lifelong habits.” “You know what you want to change, but all you’ve ever had for help is some advice and people telling you change is important. You’ve tried to sustain an exercise habit or eat healthier and experienced repeated setbacks. Self-criticism and frustration set in making future attempts even more difficult. You see social media filled with success stories and advice that only seems more unattainable in time.”-Dr. Borgen. Tune in for all the behavior principles! Love you.

On today’s episode, the Bitches bring back on one of our favorite guests, Dr. Steven Kurtz. As well all know, even the best-behaved children can be difficult and challenging at times. But oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) includes a frequent and ongoing pattern of anger, irritability, arguing and defiance toward parents and other authority figures. ODD also includes being spiteful and seeking revenge, a behavior called vindictiveness. These emotional and behavioral issues cause serious problems with family life, social activities, school and work. But as a parent, you don't have to try to manage a child with ODD alone. PCIT differs from the three other interventions in that parents and children meet together in dyadic parent-child sessions where parent coaching is performed in vivo through a wireless in-ear speaker with the child and the parent in a playroom while the therapist works from behind a one-way mirror. Thus, the therapist sees the child throughout therapy and can tailor the treatment according to directly observed parent and child behavior instead of solely relying on parent reports.
