Show Notes

We know social-emotional learning is essential. But we haven’t all figured out how to teach it effectively.


Nicole Lipkin, Clinical Psychologist and founder of HeyKiddo, is breaking traditional methods with her unique curriculum. Join us today as she shares:


  • Why social, emotional, and leadership skills are so important for kids in current times.
  • Why typical SEL isn’t as effective as we’d hoped.
  • How teachers can make an impact in the social and emotional lives of students.


After all, the future of the world is in our students' hands. Let's give them the skills they need to handle it with care.
