The children are the future--and they’re smarter than us.  

It’s been an exhausting, challenging, and eye-opening year, but what has it been like for the younger generation? This week Amanda sits down with middle school student, Mia Gault, to get the lowdown on what the past year has actually been like for students. 

Has virtual learning been awful? What has it been like witnessing the civil rights protests of the summer and other world events without being around a similar age group? Can new friends even be made during a pandemic? Not without the whole class knowing. 

Amanda and Mia gush about Hamilton, attending an International Baccalaureate Program, and in what spaces has it been ok to talk about what’s really going on--thank god for humanities class and theatre.   

Mia shares her reactions to Breonna Taylor and George Floyd, and also talks to Amanda about the practice of self-love and the challenges in doing so. Mia also teaches Amanda about pack mentality and breaking away from things that don’t serve you. 

This episode serves as a reminder that the young are already ahead of us. Embrace their knowledge.
