Health and Wellness Department Launches New Podcast Series

Educating our students, parents, faculty, and staff on building wellness practices and resilience is a key goal of the Health and Wellness department at Rutgers Prep.

Throughout the school year, we offer programming, articles, and resources to support this mission. Today, we’re proud to announce a new resource: the RPS Health and Wellness podcast series.

This fall, Sue Marotto, Director of Health and Wellness, and Sherry Riggi, Assistant Director of Health and Wellness, had the opportunity to sit down with Alan Brown, a resilience and mindfulness educator with extensive experience teaching at private schools in New Jersey and New York. Alan has been working with RPS students since 2017, and his last visit included a Middle School program and sessions for seniors navigating the college process and their parents.

The first episode of our podcast featuring Alan Brown focuses on managing distress and overwhelm. We believe it is helpful not only for our students and faculty but also for parents.

We hope you find this conversation with Alan insightful, as it offers practical tips and valuable advice!
