In today’s episode we sit down and connect with Stephanie Brown. She sets us up with great takeaways as we move into a new school year. Stephanie talks about why focusing on teachers matters and how that in turn impacts our students. As a counselor, turned principal, turned district leader, she comes from a strong relational lens, and uses strategies as a leader that she used as a teacher.

Stephanie has a Master's Degree in Counseling, a Master's Degree in Educational Leadership, a Certificate in Mental Health, and a Certificate in Life Coaching. She practiced as an elementary school principal for 3 years, a school counselor for a decade and had the opportunity to teach English in Mexico. Her goal is to provide an environment that is healthy, safe, respectful, relational, engaged, developmentally supportive, brain-friendly, and challenging for both the children and the adults.
