About this listen

Student mental health is shaped by a network of influences including students themselves, caregivers, teachers, and school leaders. Everyone plays a vital role. In this episode, Dr. Andrew and Dr. Dave sit down with veteran Toronto principal, Vince Galea, to explore how schools can better support student well-being. Together, they examine why resilience rarely develops in isolation and why a collective, community-based approach is essential. The conversation highlights the critical need to equip educators with practical tools and strategies, and underscores how fostering a positive, respectful school culture benefits not only students, but teachers as well.

Vince Galea is very active on social media and can be found @thefriendlyprincipal on Instagram.
