Hi everyone! Sparkly Life Health Coaching, Inc. began in 2013 as a consulting effort while I was in graduate school (August 2012 to December 2018). After I graduated with my Ph.D. in Urban Affairs and Public Policy, I completed a health coaching certificate. My dissertation topic is very relevant as I presented on the topic of Health Literacy and Health Seeking Behavior of Parents of Young Children. Since then, I have intermittently participated in coursework for counseling and social work with online study. I am happy to continue adjunct teaching, and health and education research work as well. I am continuing to build my practice through collaborations with excellent providers that have a variety of expertise in supporting individuals and families. Have a lovely day. Thank you, Pialee Roy, Ph.D.

Research Poster Presented at Society for Research in Child Development (SRCD) during my masters degree studies, an edited color design.
"Awhile ago, when I was working with the Massachusetts Healthy Families Evaluation with many people we worked on some research on caregiver emotional availability alongside of the number of home visits anyone had participated in. Too much involvement by the child's grandparent or extended family was associated with worse outcomes for a young mother and her child, however some involvement was good for reaching consensus on level of adherence to child development recommendations, basically having time to clarify how a young mother might have understood a concept alongside of recommendations from the grandmother of the child. That way, a home visitor's suggestions were more likely to be accepted or understood or possibly welcomed. "

Update to Figure 1 in my dissertation: A diagram or logic model of the conceptual framework that informed my own logic model.
The phrase "You are not professional enough" is disrespectful, and not in the practice of cultural humility or cultural competence according to my interpretation. Especially, when the phrase is stated to individuals who have migrated, immigrated or are the children of those who have migrated or immigrated the phrase is unacceptable. My dissertation about Health Literacy and Health Seeking Behavior of Parents of Young Children in Early Education Systems in Delaware, can offer a fact that might relate.
I proved that Head Start offered twice the rate of referrals as Private Pay Preschools to get to the same level of Health Seeking Behavior for parents of young children to utilize Primary Care Medical Homes. Respondents to my surveys showed that the majority of primary care utilizers liked the health care visit when they went and would likely utilize the resource again.
The research proves that disadvantaged families should receive that much more effort to increase health literacy (Institute of Medicine 2004: the ability to obtain, process and comprehend - access - medical information and services) and that this effort should translate or be generalized to other efforts for equal opportunity, and equal access to help all individuals and families thrive and be resilient in education and workplaces. To offer that many more resources, like affordable professional attire, interview training, how the system works guidance, because many of their parents participated in cultural constructs different that in USA, the concept of patient navigator or academic navigators might be different.
Some people wait until the last minute to get health care or support because of unfamiliarity or lack of affordability of resources, and the cost is overwhelming on the system until people feel like they are included in the community they are living in and therefore begin to want to participate in the systems that could help everyone learn together and thrive.
Furthermore, when university participants abroad state they are competitive, the cultural construct of women's roles is being missed about the changes that took place in the 1970s to 1980s for those who immigrated to USA during that time.
Many times in the 1970s women became stay at home mothers supporting their spouse's employment or other responsibilities at home, finances, and childcare, rather than in present time where more often people are pursuing higher education to afford the cost of living from a better paying job outside of the home in addition to other responsibilities either independently or with their spouses or partners.
Therefore, first investing in the system of equal opportunity for everyone, should be a practice routinely before assuming that it is okay to tell someone that they are not "professional" enough to thrive in the workplace or education system they are already part of possibly participating in more routinely.
