Mickey Smith Jr. is an acclaimed Louisiana educator, author, saxophonist, and self-described "solutionist" who feels a strong calling to help educators and teachers. Mickey, who received the Grammy Music Educator Award in 2020, brings his motivational blend of music and message to this very special episode in which he and Susan Lambert discuss music, perseverance, and finding purpose as educators and human beings. In between interludes of uplifting songs and stories, Mickey shares his proven principles for helping educators create sound connections and culture in today's classrooms. He also describes his methods for providing all-purpose encouragement and offers a tangible approach to finding one's own personal mission statements—or, as he likes to call it, our legacy song.Show notes: Mickey Smith Jr.  - WebsiteSee the Sound -  PodcastThe Keep Going TourQuotes:“I want to share some of the things that helped me to keep going, so that someone else won't miss their next and best steps.”—Mickey Smith Jr. “I believe we all have a sound. I think our success comes, number one, from the promises we make and keep with ourselves, but also the authenticity we live out that sound with.”—Mickey Smith Jr. “If we all have a sound, ultimately I think our goal should be to create a legacy song.”—Mickey Smith Jr.“The sound I'm talking about is not the audible but the internal.
