When Everyone Wins with Judy Ryan: Shifting Power-Over & Under to Power Within & Between: Empowering Teens and Young Adults to Thrive and Create a Win/Win World, with guests Holly Crouch and J. P. Watson

In the early days of LifeWork Systems, we prioritized working with children, teens and young adults, delivering massive multi-year, multi-school, award-winning school reform projects to them and their parents, teachers, school principals and staff, often at some of the most at-risk St. Louis schools. Our goal was to help them become responsible, internally motivated, and emotionally intelligent so they could  thrive now and into the future. We continue to prioritize this work as one part of our business model, with interest today for such reform in schools in the UK, Europe, New Zealand, and other parts of the US. That's because young people are our future. They are the ones to powerfully usher in evolutionary change and win/win ways of operating our world so desperately needs. 

This is why I'm so excited to interview Holly Couch and J.P. Watson, who bring over 30 years of collective experience working with young adults. Together, they have distilled the best of mindfulness, neuroscience, emotional intelligence, motivation, and confidence-building into a life-changing program. These are the skills every young person needs—not just to succeed but to flourish in life. I agree with them. Significant and lasting change is best delivered to those who are young so they don’t have to undo so much status quo conditioning and are instead well-prepared to face the rapidly changing future.

What we discuss in this interview may include:

1. What is the story of your journey and your creation of your Uncommon Education Company?

2. What changes do you want to bring to the world by unlocking the potential within young people?

3. Why is it important to become uncommon in how people of all ages use their power to influence needed change in the world?

4. How does your work with “You’re Not Broken” support the best in the teens and young adults you serve?

5. What are some of the crucial mindset shifts and skills needed to create resilience and expanded service in young people?

6. What is the significance of the Oak Tree in defining your vital work with young people?
