Description

In this episode, Sam Archibald shares his deeply personal story of being a kid whose strengths didn’t fit into the typical school mold. While classrooms left him feeling boxed out, Sam reflects on the talents and perspectives he carried all along and how they’ve shaped his work and parenting today. Now a professional who creates environments where others can thrive, Sam talks about what he wishes adults had known back then, and how we can unlock the potential of kids who don’t fit the mold. Whether you’re a parent, or teacher, this conversation will help you see struggle through a new lens; and recognize the brilliance that lives beyond the box.
