This episode explores the nuances of respect between genders. With special guest Luke Bateman playing the role of the teacher, this is an episode not to be missed. A group of boys are in trouble for disrespecting the girls, but perhaps there is more to it. Email hello@growyourmind.life if you would like a FREE printable PDF of quick combacks you can use when facing disrespect. Play this episode in the classroom or in the car. There are plenty of pausing opportunities to discuss some of the themes.
