Today we're jamming with Teacher Hallie and Teacher Joanna of Educators' Amplified, so you know it's gonna be great! Dr. Johnny and our guests dig deeper into conversations about the importance of finding, feeling, and being able to regulate our emotions. Specifically, we're looking at the neuroscience of those big negative feelings that tend to explode when we do not have appropriate tools to manage them.

Dr. Johnny is back to chat with Producers Anya and Jess as Dr. Tim is still on the road. Picking the conversation back up from last Friday, we're digging into what we should do with our feelings, especially in an educational setting. With school violence unfortunately continuing to rise, we need something much more effective than more guns in schools- let's try working through those enormous feelings instead.

A special weekly wrap up conversation amongst Doctor Johnny and Producers Anya and Jess! It's been such a full week, we need an opportunity to break it all down and recap. We're reminiscing on what we learned all week with each other and with our fantastic guests: Chris Saldana on school budgets, Teacher Hallie on mindfulness, Rod Gramer on protecting public schools from vampiric voucher systems.



Listen to hear educated educators talk education as it is, how it should be, and how it can be if we apply some currency to our commitments.
