The Peer Purpose Podcast

Does one system work for all students? What happens when the current system doesn't work for a student. Should we leave them behind since they "can't get with the program?" In this episode, Christopher Dresang and I talk about Multi Tiered System Of Supports or MTSS. MTSS uses data to help match academic and social-emotional behavior resources to each student's needs.We talk about the importance of this and why schools should start using it.

Is there a correlation between being in school and how competent a kid is? Should kids be in a classroom all day or should they be allowed to follow an easier schedule that lets them experience more life before they graduate? In this episode, Christopher and I talk about these questions and how schools could greatly benefit from integrating a hybrid schedule.

Why do we feel the need to prove people wrong? Often times, we try to prove people wrong when we aren't comfortable in our own skin and are seeking false validation. When we do this though we will always end up broken and cause more harm to ourselves. Tune into this episode as I talk about why proving people wrong isn't important and how your life can look when you are secure in your identity.

Welcome back to the Peer Purpose Podcast! In this episode, we touch on several topics but really focus on how to find your worth. Self-worth can be hard to find on our own, and some of us might even spend our whole life trying to find it. Thankfully, there is a way to find it, and the best part is, it's FREE to you!

In this powerful episode, I get to sit down with Catie Reay, a woman who has taken her trauma and used it to help those who are struggling with the same thing. Catie Reay was born in a religious cult and survived over a decade of CSA at the hand of a family member.  Since she has gained freedom from that, she has become an advocate for sexually exploited minors and uses her voice and platform to bring awareness and change to it. From having a 1.3 million following on TikTok, to meeting in the White House, Catie is striving to secure the freedom of other CSA survivors. She cares deeply for the safety of children, and that FREEDOM will always have the final say.

Why don't we look within more often? We often don't look within first when conflict arises. It's easier to take on the situation with our first reaction (which is often a negative response) and blame others. But what if when we are being tested we paused and said, "why is this actually bothering me, and is this really a big deal?" If we actually sit down and be honest with ourselves we can avoid a lot of problems. So next time a conflict in your life comes up, try looking within before responding to the situation.

What does it mean to follow through with something? We live in a world today where people have a hard time following through with what they say they are going to do. Their words of "I will" don't line up with their actions creating an inconsistency in their life. Over time people catch on to this inconsistency which ends up creating trust barriers. How do we overcome this dilemma? It starts by not being double-minded, creating consistency in your life, and at the end of the day, being someone that holds to their word.

In this special episode, I get to talk with Shaun Swiger. Shaun has a great life story and shares what that looked like through this episode. From serving in the USMC, gaining his Bachelor's in athletic training and Master's in education, and ultimately living his life as a servant leader, he has learned some things along the way. Shaun shares how addiction to drugs and alcohol in his youth plagued him and almost took everything away from him. Through these struggles though he gained something that kept him going and something that nobody could take away from him. That "thing" was resiliency. Although it was a struggle at times, Shaun shares with us how staying resilient in our life will not only help us live a life of purpose, but it will help us gain empathy for others and hope for our future. As he says, "no matter what, the sun will come up tomorrow."

When we are texting or messaging people today we have certain expectations. The expectation that people are sitting on their phone or computer waiting for us to reach out to them and that they will reply as soon as we do. This simply isn't fair to do to others and because of it we have reduced people to an algorithm. In this episode, we will take a dive into how to get rid of the expectation of instant replies.

In this episode we are breaking down the myths of New Year's resolutions and what happens when we take the 'Same Me' into the same year.  We will not change unless we do the hard work to improve our lives. We cannot move, blame or focus on others and think that we will make the 'New Me' we are striving for.  When we wait for the approval of others, we will be held up every time. I don't want you to be held back in any way this New Year - listen in and lets become the best versions of ourselves together!
