Plumbing Around: Episode 10 - Empathy, Education & Emotional Intelligence

Scott Thornton Season 1 Episode 10

In this episode of Plumbing Around, we dive into life, leadership, and the power of purpose with John Broussard—an athletic director, assistant principal, poet, speaker, and child humanitarian. From the courts to the classroom, John has spent 20 years shaping young lives through sports, education, and emotional intelligence.

We talk about the lessons sports teach beyond the game, the importance of mental health in schools, and how John’s nonprofit Poetry with Purpose is creating a space for healing and self-expression. He shares insights from his book Letters from an Educator: The Child You Didn’t See, his journey of resilience, and why he believes that young people who are loved will become adults who love well.

Join us for a powerful conversation about overcoming adversity, fostering community, and using passion as a vehicle for change. And as always—water always wins.
