When School Counseling Collaboration Goes Viral!

In this episode, we sit down with two school counselors from Mississippi whose work took an idea from our Teachers Pay Teachers to a national stage. After purchasing our Coping Skills Café, they adapted it to meet the needs of their students. What happened next was something none of us could have predicted. Their work went nationally viral after being picked up by the Associated Press and featured across multiple news outlets.What we love most about this story isn’t just the attention, it’s the collaboration behind it. These counselors took an idea, made it even better, and implemented it in a way that authentically served their school community. Even more meaningful was the grace and professionalism they showed by crediting the original resource while sharing their work publicly.This conversation is all about creativity, collaboration, and what’s possible when school counselors share ideas instead of guarding them. It’s a reminder that our best work often happens when we build on one another’s strengths — and that there’s room for all of us to succeed.If you’ve ever adapted a resource, wondered what happens after you click “purchase,” or needed encouragement that collaboration truly matters, this episode is for you.Coping Skills Cafe
