In April of 2020, Dr. Patricia McConnell, Kathy Sdao, Dr. Chris Pachel, Marissa Martino, Lynn Ungar and Barrie Finger led a pair of online conversations called Come. Sit. Stay. These virtual discussions invited us to consider how we, as positive-reinforcement trainers, might respond to daily life amidst the burgeoning COVID pandemic. In the following months, Kathy, Chris, Marissa, Lynn, and Barrie continued to join together in virtual meetings, exploring the power of these concepts for our unsettling times. Over time, these heartfelt and life-giving chats germinated LIMA beings: The ABCs of Everything, a six-week course featuring recorded conversations among the five panelists on how we use antecedents and consequences to shape human behavior, including our own. The process was enriched by three live conversations with our insightful course participants and by participant sharing on a community bulletin-board. After we five founders finished this class, we realized we’d only become more engaged with and curious about the power of this material. We’ve just begun our exploration! And so we invite you to join our LIMA beings community for continued conversation, learning, and support.
