    7: This is the Way
    Jun 17 2025
    After a five-year break, The Human Values Podcast is back—and we’re more fired up than ever to help parents and teachers bring heart back into education. In this episode, Javier Payano shares how human values transformed his life as a teacher and how they can do the same for your classroom or home.

    This week’s value is Conviction, paired with the powerful thought: “This is the Way.” You’ll hear a short light meditation, reflection prompts for your students or kids, and a deeper look at how living with conviction helps us navigate life with courage and clarity. Plus, you’ll get updates on free weekly resources, Sunday meditations, and an upcoming webinar just for educators.

    Whether you're a burned-out teacher or a parent searching for a more meaningful path—this is your invitation to stay close to the fire.
