In this episode, our host Todd Dallas Lamb. This week, we're broadcasting from the Excel in Education conference in Atlanta, Georgia, where I catch up with an inspiring guest, Sylvie Brounstein. Sylvie initially made waves last year as our very first classroom teacher interview, sharing her contagious enthusiasm and dedication amidst a national teacher shortage.

Sylvie transitioned from public education in Miami to her current role at St. Philip's Episcopal School, where she co-leads the 2nd Step social-emotional learning program. We discuss the critical role of self-confidence in education, innovative reading programs, and the profound impact of strong leadership in creating positive school environments. Sylvie also shares her work with Breakthrough Miami, a nonprofit focused on educational equity. 

Tune in as we explore how to foster passionate educators and why creating a supportive and purpose-driven teaching environment is essential for student success.
