  • When Immigration Fears Follow Kids to School: How Teachers Can Help
    Feb 5 2025

    When immigration fears take over a child’s home, they don’t leave those worries at the door—they bring them into the classroom. Whether they’re shutting down, acting out, or constantly on edge, students feeling the weight of uncertainty need stability, safety, and support at school.

    In this episode, we’ll unpack how teachers can create a calm, structured space where students feel seen, valued, and secure—without turning the classroom into a political battleground. Learn how to recognize the signs of stress, support emotional regulation, and offer simple outlets that help kids process their emotions.

  • Not Every Thriving Student Is Okay: Signs of Hidden Trauma in the Classroom
    Jan 29 2025

    Not every thriving student is okay. Some of the most high-achieving, responsible kids in your classroom are carrying silent burdens you can’t see. I know—because I was one of them. Behind the straight A’s, leadership roles, and work ethic, I was barely holding on, hiding years of instability, foster care, and trauma.

    In this episode, I’m sharing my story—the story of a student who looked successful on the outside but was silently struggling on the inside. I’ll walk you through the hidden signs of students who mask their pain and how educators can stay alert to the ones who seem “just fine.” Because sometimes, the ones who need us most are the ones we never suspect.

    Let’s make sure no student has to carry their burden alone.
