Continuing education designed to fit your actual life

the Athenaeum is designed especially for early childhood professionals. You'll find deeply researched content on topics that actually matter to your practice, delivered in 20-30 minute modules. Pop in when you need something, listen as a podcast on your commute, or follow a curated learning path. 

A ONE-OF-A-KIND CONTENT-LIBRARY EXPERIENCE

Imagine the next time you wonder - what does the research have to say about this? - you pop open a content library, search for what you need, & actually find it.

Imagine you only have 20 minutes before your next appointment, but by the time you get there you feel confident & inspired from a quick refresh.

This is the Athenaeum, friend. A one-of-a-kind content library that combines deep research with bite-sized accessibility. A curated continuing education experience that supports your practice & fits your schedule.


the Athenaeum is different.

Ready for better?

From regurgitated content packaged as "new" (and often not reflective of current research!)  to really important & relevant content behind crazy paywalls or written in academic gibberish - there's a major disconnect between what science is finding and what people in the field have access to. And that's not ok.

It shouldn't be this hard for the people doing the work to have access to the most current knowledge.


The best information available is often the most inaccessible.

so i said to hell with the way things are. let's make something better.

this is a problem ...

the Athenaeum

introducing...

Deeply researched continuing education, finally accessible—delivered in bite-sized modules designed for real schedules and real budgets.

Deeply researched modules on topics that matter to your practice—each one 20-30 minutes and designed to give you practical, applicable knowledge. New content added regularly means there's always something fresh to explore, and everything stays accessible as the library grows.

Every module available as audio so you can learn during your commute, between sessions, or wherever fits your life. No extra apps, no hunting—your private feed delivers new content straight to your podcast player.

The Big Picture...

ENROLL NOW

I'm Katie, your new super-nerdy, non-judgy, status-quo questioning early child development mentor & friend.

Hi, friend - I am so glad you're here! As an early intervention OT for over 12+ years (and working for families for over 20), I know it can feel like there's SO much to know about all things child development. I'm a weird little hybrid who loves actual practice + digging into research. And bridging the gap between them.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long are the modules?

Each module is 20-30 minutes—designed to give you substantive learning without requiring you to clear your entire afternoon. 

Can I earn CE credits through the Athenaeum?

Yes! Modules are designed to meet continuing education requirements. You'll receive certificates of completion to submit to your licensing board. (Note: specific approval varies by state/profession—check your board's requirements.)

Is this only for occupational therapists?

Nope! the Athenaeum serves all early childhood professionals—OTs, SLPs, early interventionists, educators, developmental specialists, physical therapists, and anyone working with young children who wants deeper understanding.

What if I can't attend the live masterclasses or office hours?

All live sessions are recorded and added to the library. As long as you're a member, you have access to all recordings—so you can watch/listen on your own schedule.

How does the private podcast work?

Every module is available as audio through a private RSS feed you add to your podcast app. New content automatically appears in your feed—no extra apps or hunting required.

Do I need to complete modules in order?

Nope! The library is designed for you to explore based on what you need, when you need it. Jump around, follow your curiosity, or use the curated learning paths (coming soon!) when you want structured guidance. Learn your way.

Can I access this on my phone?

Absolutely. the Athenaeum is hosted on Kajabi, which has a mobile app for iOS and Android. Access modules, listen to the podcast feed, or browse the library from anywhere—your phone, tablet, or computer.

send me an email

I get it—joining something new (especially something still being built) takes trust. If you have questions I haven't answered, or you're just not sure if this is the right fit for you, send me an email. I'm happy to chat about what you're looking for and whether the Athenaeum can serve you. No pressure, no sales pitch—just honest conversation.

Still on the fence?
