I am SO excited for this episode. I learned about the organization Tech Girlz while working with the Women in Technology Summit. We talk all about the completely free opportunities that tech girlz not only grants to middle school girls, but the leadership taught to the high school women who are stepping up to help lead. From coding, to podcasts, to robotics and so much more, this is an organization that you will WANT to bring to your community.

I was SO excited to interview the amazing Shannon Reynolds! She is an elementary school councelor who also heads up the student council! She has mastered the art of creating stepping stones for her young leaders, giving them room to learn how to be a leader, when most adults only see a little kid. It's all about mindset. We cover everything from participating in state associations, to adjusting to uncertain circumstances to mindset of leaders. You will LOVE this episode!!!

What an incredible episode. I was able to interview sisters who one is a freshman and the other is a senior class of 2021. The perspectives from a student how has spent time in the classroom and virtual due to covid, and a student who has only spent her time in student leadership online is mind blowing. I will let the episode speak for itself!! Enjoy!
So you may have noticed we took a couple weeks off from producing the podcast. I put into practice what I try to preach, that self care isn't selfish, and taking a break isn't being lazy. We took a few weeks to rest and reset. But we are now back and ready to rock!!
BUT I NEED YOUR HELP!!! We are looking for advisors or leaders (student or otherwise) to be guests on the podcast! I will say it again, no story is too small. Everyone's journey has something unique that will help someone. If you know of anyone who would be a great fit, or if you yourself want to chat with me for an hour, shoot me a message on instagram, or send me an email at kate@kategarnes.com
We also want to talk about what you want to hear! Is there a topic you want to us to dive deeper on, or that we haven't touched on yet? We want to hear it!! Please reach out at the email above!!
Jason King is an SCA Advisor and math teacher at Freedom High School in South Riding Virginia. I LOVED this conversation, because we were able to pull back the curtain a little bit and take a peek into some of the insecurities and hard choices of being an advisor. It isn't all pep rallys and homecomings. Sometimes we have to have the hard conversations, and lead our students through the let downs of high school life. This is not a conversation you want to miss!!

So this episode is a little bit different, as I don't have a guest with me!!
I have been wanting to serve you and your students even more that just with the podcast, but I knew that meant going out of my comfort zone and creating something virtual. So that's exactly what I did.

How will it change our leadership when we actually love the person we are inside, and serve from a place of empathy and love? This is the course to help answer those questions. It is designed for you and your student leaders to walk through together. This is the Ripples of Influence.

Shane Gibson is the personal finance, music business and leadership teacher at Sierra Vista High School in Las Vegas, Nevada. Like so many of us, Shane did not expect to become a teacher. He spent much of his life in business and management, then moved to bartending and DJing, before finding his calling to be a teacher. He uses the things he learned as a manager and a DJ to helps shift the way his students view leadership. We also dive deep into what teachers are really facing during this uncertain time, and how to emotionally stay healthy... or as healthy as we can.

Brad Odice was the English teacher at Highlands Ranch High School in Colorado and just helped out with student leadership on the side. Then he was asked to step in the Leadership teacher role, filling the incredibly big shoes of his predecessor. This could be intimidating for anyone, but Brad has handled it with grace and strength. We dig into what it's like to replace a well loved advisor, and how to continue to make the program your own, while still honoring the past.

All the way from the great state of Washington, I am so proud to introduce my new friend Travis Ruhter! Travis was advisor of the year in 2013. He hails from Mark Morris High School where he is also the leadership advisor. In this interview we focus on the importance of empathy, vulnerability and honesty when interacting with our student leaders. We talk about how all of us especially right now just want to feel seen, and how important it is to meet not only our students but our staff where they are. I just adore Travis and can't wait to do more episodes with him!
