In this episode, we dive into the power of human connection and how it can be the key to overcoming teacher burnout and truly connecting with your students. Teaching isn’t just about imparting knowledge; it’s about building relationships, fostering empathy, and bringing your authentic self into the classroom. We get to chat with Jared Scott, who will guide us in exploring how embracing our humanity not only helps us stay resilient in the face of challenges but also creates a supportive environment where students can thrive. Jared Scott's motivational movement began at the young age of 15, marking the start of an impactful career dedicated to inspiring resilience and hope. Today, Jared is known as an award winning speaker that creates legacies and movements wherever he goes. He is also a proud husband and father, an author, and a counselor.

Jared’s aspiration to become a public speaker started when he was 15 with a mental health crisis in his hometown when there were 12 attempted suicides and four teens committed suicide, in a single year, two of them being friends of his. Deeply Affected by this tragedy, Jared wrote and performed a song in local schools, aiming to offer hope and connection to those feeling isolated.

Guided by the experienced speaker and former Globetrotter, Melvin Adams, Jared has since earned a degree in Behavioral Health Sciences and gone one to work with over 1,000 schools through the Culture Shift Tour.
