    Special Edition: Jaydynn's Light

    Special Edition: Jaydynn's Light

    In this special edition of Talk with Erin Stock, I share a very personal story about my 16 year old niece, Jaydynn, and what it was like to have to say good-bye to her just a few weeks ago. I share my most cherished memory, the timeline of finding out how she passed, a few emotional moments that I will never forget and how my family wants to ensure her legacy lives on. I also share information provided by the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) on the dangers and warnings about the drug Fentanyl.  While I understand that this podcast may not be for everyone, and it may be tough to listen to, the Fentanyl pandemic is real. I believe in the power of education and believe that there is no better time than now to start being more proactive with educating yourself and teaching your students/children about how lethal and easily accessible illegal drugs have and will continue to become. It only takes #halfofapill or less to take the life of someone you love. I encourage you to listen, learn and share this episode with those you know. Thank you for continuing to let Jaydynn's Light shine.

A “⭐️” from me!

As a military family who always tries to seek out “the best schools” for our children, I found this first episode very informative. I appreciate the open communication provided. We have bounced around, all over the country from public school to public school to charter school. It helps inform me in this season of motherhood and reminds me to keep an open mind and my options open! The weight of responsibility I feel for my tweens to pre-k children and their education is heavy. I appreciate your insight, both as a mother and educator. I look forward to hearing more from you.
