Empowering Our Children
Kyle Schwartz, school teacher and author of the book “I Wish for Change” joins Debbie and Ali to talk about her book that has started a global movement! The idea for the book started when she gave her students an exercise in which she asked them to answer “I wish my teacher knew…” to serve as a connection point. She was touched by the varying thoughts her students shared and decided to share some of them on social media. From there, teachers have reached out from all over the world sharing how universal this idea is and how it has empowered students. Kyle shares that small, winnable goals should be a focus with kids, as well as the idea to “Keep calm and carry on.”
