S7:E5, Bedrock Series Layer 4: The Students
Today we land in the fourth and central layer of bedrock in this seven part series: the students. Sandwiched right in the middle of all this theory, right in the heart of the bedrock, is the layer that we do it all for: the young people in our charge, whose minds and hearts are being formed on our watch. This is a special episode where I get the opportunity to interview a young man in front of a live audience, a young man whose story touched me deeply when I first heard it four or five years earlier. In fact, I think it was the roughest story of mobility and transition I ever heard. And yet this young man is now doing fine—better than fine, in fact. Because of the importance of this episode, we dedicated 30minutes longer to it, to do justice to this young man’s story, and all the other stories which remain untold and unheard. We hope you enjoy this episode.

S7:E4, Bedrock Series Layer 3: “The Baton”
Today, we drill down to the third layer of bedrock: the baton. The baton used in a relay race metaphorically captures the central problem in high mobility schools: who is responsible for the baton if it keeps moving from runner to runner. We all are. Come join us in finding out why, including listening to expert presenter Nikki Muller explore the implications of "the baton" with Dr. Doug after his brief opening overview. We hope you enjoy this episode.

S7:E3, Bedrock Series Layer 2: Attachment
Today, we drill down to the second layer of bedrock: Attachment. The science is crystal clear: people who can be characterized as “secure” in their ideas about attachment do better across the lifespan. Come join us in finding out why, including listening to expert presenter Nikki Muller explore the topic with Dr. Doug after his brief opening overview. We hope you enjoy this episode.
