http://www.TransformingStigma.com. In this video, Mike Veny is delivering to his Transforming Stigma into Strength speech to birth mothers of children with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD).
This presentation is typically delivered at mental health events, however the Minnesota Organization on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (MOFAS) believed that his message could help the birth moms of babies with FASD. In the spirit of transparency, Mike had some negative feelings about birth moms of children with FASD prior to meeting the people at the Minnesota Organization on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.
He soon learned about the myths surrounding FASD. One of the myths as that only mothers with alcohol and/or substance abuse problems have babies with FASD. THIS IS NOT TRUE! More than half of new pregnancies are unplanned. In fact, many women are approximately 3 months into their pregnancy before they are even aware of it. Because of they aren’t aware, they may drink alcohol without realizing they are harming their baby.
Also, many people believe that a baby will outgrow any problems caused by drinking during pregnancy. The truth is that the damage caused to a baby by prenatal alcohol exposure is permanent. Therefore, it is CRITICAL that children with FASD begin getting the help and treatment they need AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
For the birth mothers, the biggest challenge is the burden they bear for the rest of their life, knowing that the their decision(s) caused permanent damage to their child. Mike Veny offers words of support to encourage mothers to learn to FORGIVE themselves. What makes this difficult is the reality that, even if they do eventually forgive themselves, many people in society won’t.
Whether it’s Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder or mental health, it’s important that we take responsibility in transforming stigma. No one should have to live with shame. No one should have to live in silence. No one should have to sabotage, engage in self-destructive behavior, or attempt suicide.

Anger Management: How to Control Anger – 2020 – (Actionable!)
Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how to start controlling your anger(step-by-step).
In fact, in this video, I’m going to share with you the three things that have made a difference in my own life.
With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
I’ve struggled with anger management my entire life. My childhood was full of examples of my lack of knowing how to deal with anger. In the video, I share some specific examples of how this played out throughout my school years. I was an angry person.
As an adult, I still struggle with anger management. However, while in my childhood I acted out, often aggressively, now as an adult I tend to go too far the other direction and bottle it up. Neither option is a good one and that’s why you need to learn how to control anger.
I’ve found there are three things that have helped me and it’s not reading anger management books or counting to ten. Here are the three things that I talk about in the detail:
Learning that anger can be depression in disguise.
Learning to identify where you are holding anger in your body and what you can do to release it (Hint-hint, it involves a few types of yoga).
The fact that anger isn’t always a bad thing. You can actually learn to turn your anger into a positive thing.
If you want to learn how to let the anger go, this is the video for you.
In short, this video will show you actionable ways to learn how to control your anger in 2019.

Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how a drumming school assembly program can engage and teach students.
In fact, in this video, I’m going to show you firsthand how I conduct my program, “Drumming Up Your Feelings.”
Here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
Holding people’s attention during presentations and talks can be difficult. And this is all the more true when working with children. That leaves school administrators fighting an uphill battle when contemplating school assembly ideas.
As a mental health speaker and professional drummer, I have created school assembly programs that will engage the students to the point that they are having so much fun, they don’t even realize they are also being taught important lessons.
I work with art education programs in schools of various sizes, including working with BOCES programs to make it easier for schools to provide these programs for their students. “Drumming Up Your Feelings” is a hands-on, fun way for students to experience arts in education while learning the important skills for teamwork. Teachers and administrators won’t need to constantly remind students to sit quietly and listen throughout the presentation because each child has a role to play.
As you’ll see in the video, these programs are not your average school assembly. They are effective with students of all ages (and adults too!). These programs are also great confidence builders as students are able to try something new and succeed at it.
In short, this video will show you actionable ways that a drumming assembly program can benefit your school in 2019.
