We spend so much time talking about helping kids regulate their emotions. Adults need the same support; we just call it "burnout" instead.

The truth is, a dysregulated nervous system shows up everywhere: short tempers in meetings, snapping at a coworker, feeling "on edge" by 10am. It's not a personality flaw. It's a skill gap.

Hey Carter is now bringing nervous system regulation workshops to corporations and teams — practical tools for staying grounded under pressure, communicating better, and building a calmer workplace culture.

There's nothing like watching a kid be completely, unapologetically joyful. Brown Boy Joy isn't just a book — it's a whole mood. 💙

My gratitude for this life raises me to my highest vibration!

Thank you Burch Bear Holistic Care for inviting us to practice this wisdom. Our babies will be better because of it. Just look how happy Amor-Ade is while singing this over himself.
Massive Love!💙

Every child deserves a classroom that sees them. This is the standard behind everything in our curriculum: evidence-based, culturally relevant, and built with students at the center.

HEY CARTER! IN THE ROOM 🎤

Hey Carter! started with a story, so it feels especially meaningful to be in rooms that celebrate the power of our stories.

This November, our founder, Dr. Mishi Booker, is headed to Durham, NC for the Griot & Grey Owl Black Southern Writers Con-Fest. She’ll be moderating a panel and hosting a workshop alongside a community of Black authors, poets, artists, and storytellers.

As an author, therapist, and founder, Mishi’s work has always been rooted in helping us tell our stories, affirm who we are, and create spaces where Black children and families can thrive.

We’re excited to bring Hey Carter! into the room. 🖤

📍 Durham, NC
📅 November 13–15, 2026

Ever notice how your child calms down faster when you stay calm too? That's not a coincidence, it's co-regulation, and it's one of the most powerful tools we have as parents.

We’re dreaming bigger than ever for the future of Hey Carter!. 💙🌻

Every new place reminds us that children everywhere deserve to feel seen, safe, and celebrated.

As we continue to grow, we’re building more than books. We’re creating an evidence-based early childhood wellness ecosystem that equips children by supporting the adults who love them through books, curriculum, trainings, and community experiences.

We’re grateful for every opportunity to learn, connect, and imagine what’s possible. The future is bright, and we’re just getting started.

Still taking in this moment. 💜

Winning the Violet Book of Business Pitch Competition gave us more than a $5,000 investment. It gave us the opportunity to move the next phase of Hey Carter! forward.

We’re putting this investment directly into completing our 360° early childhood wellness ecosystem, connecting books, curriculum, educator and parent resources, and community experiences to support children and the adults who love them across home, school, and community.

We’ve spent years building, learning, listening, and growing, and we’re incredibly grateful for this investment in our vision.

We’re excited for the future of Hey Carter! and everything we’re building for children and the adults who love them. 💜
