Social Teen Talk
Welcome to the Social Teen Talk podcast. I'm your host, Tamika Taylor, a school educator, community activist, and mother of four boys. This podcast is all about giving our youth a platform to be heard here. Teens can feel comfortable being open and transparent, discussing topics that truly matter to them.
Our aim is to dive into crucial subjects like inner healing, social and emotional development, depression, and any other controversial issues. We bring in views from parents, educators, mental health therapists, schools, nonprofit organizations, and local businesses as we believe that together we can make a positive impact in our community.
You can catch our podcast on Apple, Spotify, or any other preferred platform. Please join us as we work towards creating a space where everyone feels a sense of belonging.

Ep. 1 - From Personal Trainer to Education Changemaker: Overcoming Dyslexia and Inspiring Youth
Ever felt like you're meant for something greater than what you're doing right now? That's exactly how I, Tamika Taylor, felt before a spiritual experience guided me to leave a successful career in personal training and embrace a life dedicated to education. This episode uncovers my extraordinary journey, from my childhood in Brooklyn to becoming a teacher and the transformative role a personal struggle with dyslexia played in shaping my approach to nurturing young minds.
I also share the deep insights I gained into the school system when I transitioned to a single-gender school, and my observations as a tutor that revealed a large gap in essential reading skills. But it's not all about challenges, hear how we're actively carving out a change through the Impact Achievement Center, striving to build a stronger community for our youth. A journey that illuminates the importance of overcoming personal struggles, finding what truly fuels your passion, and making a meaningful impact on the lives of the young generation. So, lend an ear and be inspired, because it's never too late to become the change you wish to see in the world.
