Serena Kerrigan, aka SFK, turned Let's F*cking Date from a digital series into a bestselling card game, sold-out live shows, a Peacock series, and a community of over a million people. Her new book is out now to help you pimp your dating game.

July 20 Architecture Meets ABA with Ximena Valle
Behavior analysts talk about the environment. Ximena Valle designs it.
Ximena Valle, AIA, LEED AP, founding principal of FIFTEEN Architecture + Design, joins Liat to break down what really goes into designing for neurodiverse communities, and it's a lot more than ramps and sensory rooms. We talk spaces that make you feel like an animal versus ones that feel like a spa, paint blends that stop kids from peeling the walls, and arranging furniture to keep clients engaged. Ximena breaks down how color and layout shape behavior, how bad design burns out staff too, and what BCBAs and educators can steal for their own classrooms and therapy rooms.
