132. Empathy in Action: Kindness Lessons for October


Listen Later

In honor of Bullying Prevention Month, I'm exploring how counselors can help students move beyond “Don’t be a bully” to living empathy through meaningful, collaborative kindness projects.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

  • The difference between teaching empathy and practicing it
  • Simple schoolwide projects that create a culture of kindness:
  • Classroom extensions like kindness tickets, secret kindness agents, and gratitude postcards

Lead with empathy — not just awareness. Don’t just define kindness. Show it. Celebrate it. Let it grow.
