Outstanding Humans!
I attended a conference yesterday held in New Jersey to learn more about Character Strong and their philosophy. Houston and Kemy (hope I got the spelling right - names are important!) were the speakers for the day. It was by far the best conference I have ever been to hands down. You know a conference is good when you feel changed as a person for the better simply for being present hearing their message. They are the real day. They live and breathe their message. The message is simple - “make kindness normal.” Seems simple right? Not so much in today’s world. They offer simple, straightforward ideas for how to weave SEL and character into education everyday. Students need direct teaching in SEL and Character to be successful! Their lessons, ideas, etc are what they call “plug and play.” They have done all of the hard work for you! I could go on and on about Character Strong. We need more of their teachings in our schools, homes and world. I am overjoyed that they have a podcast. Their ideas are ones you can implement right away so I look forward to hearing more from this group through the podcast. I found myself energized and motivated to continue the hard work of education day in and day out in our schools. I imagine this podcast will be a weekly pick me up when feeling defeated, exhausted, stretched thin, overwhelmed (this will happen if you work in education). I highly recommend you give this podcast a listen - you may just find yourself changed as well. Be kind - what a world this would be if we all just followed those two words even when inconvenient - just be kind.

Thank you for creating another resource! I went through training a year ago and loved every minute of it. This is so important for the students and the school!
