About Our Guest:
Mandy Froehlich is a distinguished mental health advocate, educator, and author. Her professional path started as an elementary teacher who loved technology. As her story goes, she became incredibly burnt out long ago when there were no pathways to healing. Nobody wanted to talk about sad teachers, or so she was told. Although edtech and mental health might seem like completely different topics (they're not), they were her life for many years. She was a technology integrator and then a Director of Innovation and Technology, but she was trying to heal from the stress and strain of the classroom many years after she left it. Her goal was to help other people and advocate for policy change. She strives to be the mental health advocate that she needed years ago.

Join us in an enlightening episode as Bradley James Davies shares his profound perspective on leadership, gratitude, and personal growth. Prepare to be inspired by his transformative PEACE acronym—a daily mantra overflowing with wisdom. Plus Bradley shares practical advice on intentional practices and systems that provide invaluable guidance for leading more fulfilling lives and nurturing harmonious relationships. Seasoned leaders and aspiring ones alike will gain fresh perspectives on impactful leadership and intentional living after tuning in.
Bradley and I also trade quotes on expectations and here’s the one I couldn’t think of when we recorded:
“expectations are premeditated resentments”
After doing a little digging, I believe this is shared in AA and it appears to originate from a full quote:
“Unspoken expectations are premeditated resentments.”

Dr. Neil Gupta is all about creating learning communities where everyone feels safe, welcomed, and invited. And, in this episode, you will be havin' all the feels hearing Neil share the critical role that gratitude plays in learning communities as well as his personal life.
The "I Point to You" practice that Neil shares in this episode is a practice that was brought into his district by Assistant Superintendant Angie Adrean who was inspired after reading "WOLFPACK: How to Come Together, Unleash Our Power, and Change the Game" by Abby Wambach.
*"If you watch footage of any of those goals, you’ll see that the moment after I score, I begin to point. I point to the teammate who assisted. I point to the defender who protected us. I point to the midfielder who ran tirelessly. I point to the coach who dreamed up this play. I point to the bench player who willed this moment into existence.
I’ve never scored a goal in my life without getting a pass from someone else. Every goal I’ve ever scored belonged to my entire team. When you score, you better start pointing."*
