During his time in college, Dan Rubins wanted to get involved in a music program, but he found that many of them were generating competition among students, and he was seeking connection and community.  And so, Hear Your Song was born: a non-profit serving kids ages 6 to 18 with serious illnesses and complex health needs to make their voices heard through collaborative songwriting. Based in NYC but available virtually nationwide, Hear Your Song helps children with a wide range of physical and mental-health-related diagnoses share their medical journey or emotions through song. It is a child-driven process where children share what they want and choose how to define themselves.  From silly songs to emotional songs, from explaining the journey of a particular illness to songs about inequality, the children Dan and his team have worked with never fail to impress with their creativity, maturity, and determination.  This project helps children feel empowered and in control of what is usually an uncontrollable and disheartening situation. Today, Dan has joined me on this episode to share more about his work, how you can use music as a tool, and how you can get involved in this beautiful project.  I highly recommend checking out their YouTube channel to listen to many beautiful and moving songs they've created alongside these brave children.  Key Takeaways with Dan Rubins The power of music for personal development. How music is used as a learning and advocating tool. How children with a diagnosis are empowered to define themselves outside of their disease. The beautiful ways that Hear Your Song has provided an emotional outlet for children in difficult medical journeys.  The connection and relationships that are being built with others who are on similar journeys. Why creating a safe and empowering environment for children to find their voice is so important.  Show Notes: Get Full Access to the Show Notes by visiting: MatteasJoy.org/57.

George Couros is an Innovative Teaching, Learning, and Leadership Consultant and speaker and the author of “The Innovator's Mindset” and “Innovate Inside the Box”. In 2013, George gave a TEDx talk about Innovative Teaching and Learning. George has worked at all school levels, from K-12 as a teacher, technology facilitator, and school and district administrator, and is currently an Adjunct Instructor with the Graduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania.  George believes in creating a collaborative environment with all stakeholders to help meet the best needs of all children. George is a father of two children and is driven to ensure all students have an amazing experience in their K-12 schooling.  By being curious, collaborative, and open to new learning, George thinks we can truly inspire our students to not only be prepared for the real world but ensure that they make the world better than it is now.  __ In this podcast episode, George talks about what inspired him to become a teaching, learning, and leadership consultant which lead to the outcome of a best-selling author. George then gives a better understanding of what an innovator's mindset is and isn't. He then provides one characteristic of an innovator's mindset and shares an example of an innovative hero.  As children are naturally curious, George explains how we can respond to a child's natural curiosity and help empower them to wonder, explore and become forward-thinking leaders. As the traditional system of education requires students to hold their questions and compliantly stick to the scheduled curriculum, George explains how we can do a better job at fostering innovation, encouraging critical thinking, and inspiring creativity.  George believes that innovation first starts with mindset and not skillset. He explains how someone can develop a growth mindset to inspire the ability, motivation, and attitude to unleash hidden talents. Also, George believes in the importance of asking quality-based questions. He shares some writing prompts or critical questions that we can ask ourselves so we can become more innovative. Lastly, George provides his definition of greatness and what it means to him. __ Host: Ben Mumme Twitter: https://twitter.com/mumme_ben Medium: https://benjaminmumme.medium.com/ YouTube: https://bit.ly/3fAcFrt Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/livingyourg...  __ Guest: George Couros Twitter: https://twitter.com/gcouros  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gcouros/?hl=en  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgecourosim?originalSubdomain=ca  Website: https://georgecouros.ca/blog/  __  Let's Connect

We explore the importance of making the latest evidence on children's rights and wellbeing accessible to a broad audience, strengthening and framing key arguments by using the most engaging language and communicating with policymakers and politicians so they make informed budgetary and voting decisions. The Institute for Inspiring Children's Futures works with diverse partners, including the OECD, Unicef and the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, and engages with policymakers and politicians internationally. They aim to ensure children facing adversity have what they need to reach their full potential, and much of their focus is on children who come into contact with the justice system. Despite the fact that the wellbeing of children is an important indicator of the future stability of society and prosperity of the economy, there is still far to go to ensure children's rights are realised.

In heaven, there is a stream in a highland forest on the island we call Sri Lanka. The Temple of Comfort looks out over the cool, green mountains at the center of the island, not far from this clear stream. The ascended master we’re going to visit was and is described by Jesus as the Comforter, whose holy presence continues to bless all in our world. His name is his office. We have known him for a long time and so he’s comfortable sitting with us on sun-warmed rocks by the stream, to remind us about our God-given authority to take dominion in our world. God in us is the light in our world, whether we know it or not. He will, like Jesus, teach us that we have the need and authority to command archangels and that we can go with him wherever he goes, to bring comfort wherever there’s despair.

Trevor Romain "Inspiring Creativity in Children Around the Globe" on The Erica Glessing Show Podcast #5003 Inspirational children's author Trevor Romain gives us a glimpse into his brilliance on today's show. With more than 50 children's books published, Trevor travels the world sharing his unique messages of hope and joy with children of all ages. More About Trevor Romain Many people have dedicated their lives to helping children. Many people have made incredible impacts on children. But there are very few who have spoken to and listened to as many children as Trevor Romain. After an experience in the South African army, where he had an encounter with a badly injured child, he knew that one day he wanted to help to children who are hurting. A few years after that experience, and working in South Africa as a creative director at an ad agency, Trevor moved to the United States and his journey of helping children began. Trevor has been speaking to children and working with children for over 30 years. He realized he had a natural ability to connect with children when he volunteered to visit terminally ill children at Brackenridge Hospital in Austin. He quickly became known as the Doctor of Mischief, meaning he drove the kids crazy with his jokes and pranks, but at the same time giving them a trusting ear and hope for the future, whatever the future held. It was during these hospital visits that Trevor realized that adults sometimes tell children what they think they need to hear, instead of listening to what they are asking for. It was with this knowledge that Trevor wrote his series of best-selling self-help children's books. Some of them include, How To Do Homework Without Throwing Up, Bullies Are a Pain in the Brain, Cliques, Phonies, and Other Baloney, and What On Earth Do You Do When Someone Dies. Trevor has the ability to tackle some tough topics while keeping kids engaged with humor. The success of these books led to the formation of The Trevor Romain Company. The company produced an award-winning series of animated DVDs based on these books. The series has run on PBS, and the DVDs are used in schools all across the country.

“Joy Bauer is passionate about inspiring children and people of all ages to eat the healthiest foods and live their best lives.”Lori Taylor (7:24 - 7:37) Joy Bauer is one of America's leading health authorities. She's a New York Times number 1 best-selling author and the health and nutrition expert for NBC's Today show.  Joy is also the host of the TV show Health and Happiness with Mayo Clinic. She's a mother, and the author of Yummy Yoga, a new children's book that promotes wellness, exercise, and glorifies fresh produce in a fun and artful way. Fresh Produce: The Pinnacle of Living Your Best Life Eating fresh fruits and vegetables is essential to healthy living. They give us nutrients that include vitamins, minerals, fiber, phytonutrients, and antioxidants. “Fruits and vegetables are high in volume and low in calories. They fill you up without filling you out.” - Joy Bauer (8:08 - 8:15) Health and Wellness is a Lifestyle Shift Weight loss, health, and wellness require a lifestyle shift. You can maximize your results by setting  goals and following a plan you can stick to long-term. Plan for choices that fit your lifestyle. Set short-term goals while creating a long-term vision of where you want your health to be.  Don't beat yourself up about making mistakes, because they're a necessary part of the journey. The key is to get back on track with your healthy lifestyle right away.  Inspiring Children to Make Healthy Choices  As a mother, Joy Bauer understands the importance of making healthy choices for children. Every parent wants their child to be comfortable, happy, healthy, and thriving.  “Yummy Yoga makes health education fun. It gets kids engaged and excited about making healthy choices.” - Joy Bauer (18:54 - 19:01) But it can be hard to get kids to try new vegetables or go outside and move. This is especially true in today's world of technology and over-stimulation from smartphones, tablets, and video games.  That's what inspired Joy to write Yummy Yoga, a children's book that makes health fun and engaging. It encourages kids to try things like yoga and new vegetables through interactive and innovative strategies.  Exercise has been shown to boost the immune system, enhance confidence, and improve general health. Yoga can help with focus and stress-reduction, which can improve a child's quality of life.

In Their Own Words - An Introduction to the Inspiring Children Foundation Today we are kicking off a series of interviews spotlighting an amazing organization called the Inspiring Children Foundation.  You are going to hear from a group of inspiring individuals, many of whom are just teenagers.  But let me be the first to tell you that these "kids" have wisdom beyond their years.    The Foundation was started by Ryan Wolfington and renowned Las Vegas tennis coach Marty Hennessy, and is designed to provide children, many of whom come from difficult and disadvantaged life situations, the tools necessary to become their very best in academics, athletics, interpersonal skills, and leadership positions.   They are becoming professionals in life. It is done using a variety of tools including mentoring, project-driven learning, entrepreneurship, a focus on education and athletics, and a special emphasis on mindfulness and self-awareness.   It started about 16 years ago, with the simple goal of helping one child make the right life choice of staying in school and staying out of trouble.  There was no Foundation or even a vision of what was to come.  It was simply Marty and Ryan showing interest in a child who was taking tennis lessons, a young teenager named Frideric, who they saw as extremely vulnerable to peer pressure and potentially making some poor life choices.      Since those early days, the impact from the Foundation is nothing short of amazing.   Thousands of kids have been served by the Foundation. There is a select group of children chosen for the what's called the Leadership Program.  Ninety-Five percent of them have earned academic and athletic scholarships to colleges such as: Stanford, Princeton, Oxford, Yale, Georgetown University, Harvard, University of Pennsylvania-Wharton School of Business,  Vanderbilt, United States Air Force Academy, The Citadel, Villanova, Williams, Vassar and many others.  The Foundation is funded through donation, but I know first hand from being there that it thrives on volunteering and sweat equity, if you will, on the part of parents, the children, and community supporters.  They operate a very tight budget and the return on donation is high.    From the $3 million donated to the foundation over the years, over $18 MILLION IN COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS have been earned by the youth.  What you are going to pick up immediately is the clarity with which these kids see life.  They have learned to trust in themselves, and have become leaders among their friends, families, and communities.  It makes me think about a growing concern that the education system in this country is broken, and kids are not well prepared for the life ahead of them, much less able to handle the moral and ethical challenges they will confront in high school and college.  But after several visits and spending time with these kids, my hope is renewed that the blueprint drawn up by the Foundation can set a new standard for educating and preparing youth to be whole humans, capable of deep and meaningful relationships, living with mindful awareness, in the pursuit of wisdom.  And to that end, the Fuller Graduate School of Psychology is in the process of documenting the foundation's success and creating a curriculum that can scale even further.  Currently the Foundation's program is being duplicated by 22 organizations around the world.  You may have noticed that the music behind the opening montage and the one you will hear as we head out is by the singer-songwriter Jewel, who took notice of the Foundation and how they align with the principles she personally developed to navigate a very challenging early life of her own.  She started a non-profit organization called Jewel Never Broken to teach these lessons and has now partnered with Inspiring Children to provide online resources for mindfulness, emotional intelligence, and wellness, through her site, JewelNeverBroken.com.    So I'll let some of the kids take us out on this episode with their thoughts on the Foundation and how it has affected their lives.  Then tune in for my conversation with co-founder Ryan Wolfington, whose fascinating and insightful story of personal transformation is where this all got started.  Thanks for joining me on Deep Sit and I hope you enjoy my interview series spotlighting the Inspiring Children Foundation.  Thanks for listening, PF All interviews will be available on www.DeepSitPodcast.com
