Episode 60: Tina Raspanti

In this episode of The Ripple Effect of Wellbeing in Work and Life, Dr. Stephanie Romero sits down with educator and mindfulness practitioner Tina Raspanti to explore how a non-linear journey through mindfulness can transform both personal life and professional practice. Tina shares how integrating mindfulness and positive psychology into education creates more compassionate, connected classroom environments and supports both student and teacher wellbeing. The conversation also highlights the power of presence, emotional regulation, and the “next play” mindset in navigating challenges in school, sports, and life. Ultimately, this episode is a reminder that mindfulness is not just something we practice, but how we live.
