Who's Actually Failing School?

After 20+ years as an educational consultant working with students grades 5-12, here is my observation: we're too quick to blame kids for school struggles violence, poor grades, behavioral issues while ignoring the adults around them. In this episode, I discuss absent or abusive parents, burnt-out or ill-suited teachers, disengaged principals, and superintendents who undermine good leadership while also honoring the ones doing it right. It's not one villain. Everybody plays a part.

The Isolation Effect: Loneliness Won't Leave Me Alone: Part 2

In this follow-up to "Loneliness Won't Leave Me Alone," host Hashim M. Garrett digs into a strange contradiction many people know but rarely admit: getting so comfortable being alone that you actually become worse at being around people. He talks through oversharing, second-guessing conversations at 2am, secretly keeping score on people's "annoying" moments, and the push-pull of wanting connection on your own terms. Honest, a little funny, and a lot relatable this episode is a reminder that solitude can be healthy, but only if you stay intentional about not losing your ability to connect.

Loneliness Won't Leave Me Alone

In this episode, I get into the difference between being alone and feeling lonely, sparked by a song lyric my dad shared with me: "loneliness won't leave me alone." Drawing from growing up as an only child and going through two marriages, I make the case that loneliness is internal, not circumstantial. You can feel isolated in a stadium full of people or in the same bed as your spouse, and you can be completely at peace sitting alone in your house. I used to run from difficult feelings after my first marriage ended, filling the silence with going out, dating, and staying busy instead of doing the real internal work. My message: solitude isn't something to fear or fill with distraction, it's where growth happens. I talk about historical and spiritual figures who found clarity in periods of being alone, and I encourage you to sit with yourself intentionally, build positive coping habits, and use that time to grow, so that when you do reconnect with others, you show up as a better version of yourself.

In this episode, he gets honest about what he's seen: teachers who are true beacons of light for their students, and others who've lost the ability to separate their own struggles from how they show up for kids.
