💥 How his early calling towards becoming a pastor and working in a youth juvenile detention centre taught him the importance of meeting children where they are to truly help them.

💥 Why did he drop out after two years into his Master’s Program for Theology and how did this decision lift his relationship with his father?

💥 How do we practice and teach empathy with our own young children? Bryan shares concrete examples.

💥 He discusses major school issues: teacher support, rising student behavior problems, and the need for earlier intervention. He demonstrates practical empathy-building activities like the ‘breathing ball’ exercise with grade 3 students. Connect with Bryan: https://www.bslspeaks.com/
