Wait, did I just explain classroom management to the King?! Yep. That happened. In this episode, I’m giving you a front seat to one of the most bizarre, surreal, and pinch-me experiences of my life — being invited to Buckingham Palace and getting to literally talk to King Charles about what we do as educators. But more importantly, I want to unpack why it was so powerful. Not because it was fancy or royal or Insta-worthy (though…yes, yes it was). But because what I shared with him? It wasn’t shiny. It wasn’t new. It wasn’t revolutionary. It was real. The simple, human-first, practical work we do in our classrooms every day — the stuff that doesn’t come with buzzwords or fancy acronyms — THAT is what got me standing in front of the actual King. And I want to tell you why that matters. Because this episode is for you. If you’ve ever doubted whether your small routines make a difference…  If you’ve ever wondered whether this values-led way of teaching is actually working…  If you’ve ever felt like what you’re doing is “just good teaching” and not enough to be noticed… Let me tell you: It’s radical. It’s rare. And it’s working. So, shall we roll the tape?
