What does it mean to be your best self? How can help our students to place their lives in context of a whole education for a whole person? In this fourth special series of The Game Changers Podcast, Phil Cummins joins in conversation with Dr Hayley Watson and Benson Saulo to explore character, competency, and wellness through the story of a life. Dr Hayley Watson is a clinical psychologist, researcher, lecturer, and program developer who is passionate about helping people find and cultivate their inner potential and inherent value. Her most recent project is a cutting-edge video-based mental health curriculum for middle and high schools being rolled out across Australia, Canada, and the US: Open Parachute Schools. In this, the third and final conversation, she speaks about why some children bully and our schools can help those being bullied, the need to teach our students how to use social media, and how to know if we're really thriving and attending to wellness.
